I'll overwhelm 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Anthony Joshua
The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the pair came face-to-face to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Ex twice world title holder Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Boxer's Mindset
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Paul's History
Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer is still one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in round four or five and claimed he would prevent the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul said.
Physical Disparity
As both boxers met for the traditional face-off, with their size difference on show, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is actually going ahead.
