I'll stamp all over 'credible fighter' Jake Paul - Joshua

Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul face-off

Anthony Joshua prepares to battle the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be streamed live on Netflix.

Briton Joshua said he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize the upcoming boxing match.

Former two time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth disparity - at Miami Kaseya Center on 19 December.

Fighter's Mindset

"I will injure his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, stated.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I intend to really want to hurt him. That's my goal."

Respectful Exchange

Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.

Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win.

"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.

"I respect him for that."

Legitimate Opponent

Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's boxing ability.

"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.

Paul's Background

Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Attraction

Still, the relative newcomer remains one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive paydays.

Forecast and Belief

The 28 year old anticipated a KO victory in rounds four or five and stated he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.

"It will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Paul said.

Physical Disparity

As Joshua and Paul participated in the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it highlighted just how surprising this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly going ahead.
