🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'legitimate combatant' Paul - Joshua Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout match which will be streamed in real-time on the streaming platform. Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to promote next month's boxing match. Ex two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge disparity - at Miami's venue on December 19th. Boxer's Mindset "I will injure his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset. "I will seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal." Respectful Exchange In spite of such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - were respectful and remained civil with each other. Paul instead targeted ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a match opportunity. Targeting Fury Joshua, in the meantime, criticized UK opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory. "[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer said. "I give him credit for that." Serious Fighter Despite declaring he will hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a serious fighter," he said. Paul's History Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since becoming pro. He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year. Commercial Success Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, consistently making huge earnings. Prediction and Belief The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for 2026. "It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul said. Size Difference As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it drove home just how improbable this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly happening.
