I'll stamp all over 'legitimate combatant' Paul - Joshua
The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round contest which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" Jake Paul and "defeat" the American as the pair confronted each other to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on 19 December.
Fighter's Mindset
"I will break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I intend to genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Civil Exchange
Despite these statements, a composed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually known for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua's opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British rival Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to talk badly about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he said.
Paul's Background
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or faded names since entering professional boxing.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's largest financial successes, regularly earning massive paydays.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for two years from now.
"It will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the usual confrontation, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how unlikely this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the bout is actually proceeding.
