🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'serious fighter' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be shown in real-time on Netflix. Briton Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters confronted each other to publicize next month's bout. Former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami arena on 19 December. Fighter's Mentality "I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, stated. "I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset. "I intend to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention." Respectful Interaction Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically famous for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other. Jake Paul rather targeted ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity. Taking Aim at Fury Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British opponent Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory. "Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua commented. "I acknowledge that." Serious Fighter Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills. "Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he remarked. Jake Paul's Background Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing. He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year. Commercial Attraction However, the relative newcomer is still one of the sport's largest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly in the works for two years from now. "The next fight will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated. Physical Disparity As the two fighters met for the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how unlikely this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is really happening.
