🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'credible boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be shown live on Netflix. British boxer Anthony Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair met personally to build hype for next month's boxing match. Ex two time unified heavyweight champion Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami's venue on 19 December. Boxer's Mindset "I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," the British boxer, 35 years old, said. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do." Respectful Interaction In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - typically recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other. Paul rather criticized former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a fight offer. Taking Aim at Tyson Fury Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win. "[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated. "I acknowledge that." Legitimate Opponent Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills. "Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked. Paul's Background Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has primarily fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro. He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023. Financial Success However, the novice is still one of the sport's greatest financial successes, frequently receiving huge paydays. Forecast and Confidence The 28 year old predicted a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for 2026. "The next fight will be my match with Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated. Size Disparity As both boxers participated in the traditional face-off, with their size difference evident, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is truly happening.
