Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will damage his features and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
Despite those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after Ngannou declined a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's present here," Joshua stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, frequently receiving massive earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the traditional face-off, with their size difference on show, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is really happening.
