Anthony Joshua is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round match which will be shown live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" the American as the pair came face-to-face to publicize the upcoming bout.
Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth disparity - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Boxer's Mindset
"I plan to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically known for his showmanship - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, targeted UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua said.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since entering professional boxing.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in 2023.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge earnings.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a knockout win in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for 2026.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul said.
Size Disparity
As both boxers met for the customary stare-down, with their size difference evident, it highlighted just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly going ahead.
