🔗 Share this article I'll dominate 'legitimate boxer' Paul - Joshua The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight-bout match which will be shown live on Netflix. British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants confronted each other to publicize the upcoming heavyweight fight. Former twice unified title holder Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a mammoth uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on December 19th. Boxer's Mindset "I plan to break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said. "I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think. "I will seriously aim to hurt him. That's my goal." Civil Interaction Despite such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other. Jake Paul rather criticized ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer. Targeting Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at UK opponent Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win. "[Paul] is superior to Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented. "I respect him for that." Legitimate Opponent Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua declined to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent. "Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said. Paul's History Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro. He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023. Financial Success Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest money-making draws, frequently receiving massive earnings. Prediction and Confidence The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and asserted he would prevent the much-anticipated Joshua–Fury fight, which is allegedly under discussion for 2026. "It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated. Size Difference As the two fighters met for the customary face-off, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it drove home just how unlikely this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is truly proceeding.
