🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'serious fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be shown in real-time on Netflix. Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight. Ex two-time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December. Boxer's Attitude "I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared. "I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality. "I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my goal." Civil Exchange In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - normally famous for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other. Paul rather targeted former Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer. Taking Aim at Fury Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory. "Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented. "I acknowledge that." Legitimate Fighter Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a serious fighter," he stated. Jake Paul's History Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro. He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023. Financial Success However, the novice is still one of the sport's biggest financial successes, consistently making substantial financial rewards. Prediction and Belief The 28-year-old predicted a stoppage in round four or five and asserted he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for 2026. "It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared. Physical Disparity As the two fighters engaged in the usual 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 fight is actually happening.
