Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "overpower" the American as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's boxing match.
Ex two-time unified heavyweight champion Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive disparity - at Miami venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm superior," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
In spite of these statements, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and called him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, criticized British opponent Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua refused to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he said.
Paul's History
Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He lost to Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the novice remains one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is truly proceeding.
