🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'serious combatant' Paul - Joshua The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight-round contest which will be broadcast live on Netflix. Briton Anthony Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants confronted each other to build hype for next month's boxing match. Ex twice world title holder Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a huge mismatch - at Miami arena on December 19th. Boxer's Mentality "I will damage his features and hurt his body. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated. "I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think. "I'm going to really want to injure him. That's what I want to do." Respectful Interaction Despite such comments, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other. Jake Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal. Targeting Fury Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a Paul win. "Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer said. "I acknowledge that." Serious Fighter Despite stating he plans to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to talk badly about his rival's fighting skills. "Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked. Paul's History Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing. He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in last year. Commercial Attraction However, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving huge earnings. Prediction and Confidence The 28-year-old predicted a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the highly-expected 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 said. Size Difference As Joshua and Paul participated in the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how astonishing it is that the match is actually going ahead.
