I will stamp all over 'legitimate boxer' Jake Paul - Anthony Joshua

Boxer's Mindset

"I plan to break his face and break his body up. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I intend to seriously aim to cause him pain. That's my intention."

Respectful Interaction

Despite such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually famous for his theatrics - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.

Jake Paul rather attacked former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, at the same time, targeted UK opponent Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer stated.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Fighter

Despite saying he intends to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.

"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he stated.

Paul's Background

Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.

He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

Nevertheless, the novice is still one of the sport's biggest financial successes, consistently making huge earnings.

Prediction and Confidence

The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would derail the highly-expected Fury-Joshua bout, which is allegedly under discussion for two years from now.

"It's going to be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.

Size Disparity

As Joshua and Paul participated in the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is really going ahead.
