The British boxer is set to fight the American YouTuber in an eight round contest which will be streamed live on the streaming platform.
British boxer Anthony Joshua declared he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to promote next month's bout.
Former two time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, on paper, a massive mismatch - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Mindset
"I'm going to injure his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I will genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention."
Respectful Interaction
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul instead criticized ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after the Cameroonian rejected a fight offer.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul victory.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he's actually sitting here," Joshua commented.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Fighter
Despite declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to talk badly about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning substantial earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old predicted a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would derail the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul said.
Physical Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the traditional face-off, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how surprising this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really happening.
