Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight round match which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "break" the American as the two fighters met personally to promote the upcoming heavyweight fight.
Former two time world boxing king Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on 19 December.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I'm here to prove my superiority," the British boxer, 35, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I intend to genuinely try to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Targeting Tyson Fury
Joshua, at the same time, criticized British opponent Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he said.
Jake Paul's Background
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28-year-old predicted a knockout win in round four or five and asserted he would derail the long-awaited Joshua–Fury fight, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As Joshua and Paul met for the traditional confrontation, with their height and weight contrast evident, it drove home just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually happening.
