Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "break" the American as the combatants met personally to build hype for next month's boxing match.
Former two-time unified boxing king Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally known for his dramatics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead targeted former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "ridiculous" after the Cameroonian turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, at the same time, criticized UK rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Opponent
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the relative newcomer remains one of boxing's greatest financial successes, consistently making massive earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a knockout win in rounds four or five and asserted he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly in the works for two years from now.
"The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated.
Size Disparity
As the two fighters participated in the usual stare-down, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is really happening.
