🔗 Share this article I will dominate 'credible boxer' Paul - Joshua Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round fight which will be broadcast in real-time on Netflix. British boxer Anthony Joshua said he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to publicize next month's heavyweight fight. Former two time world heavyweight champion Joshua battles social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th. Fighter's Mentality "I will break his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, said. "I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality. "I will really want to injure him. That's my goal." Respectful Exchange In spite of those words, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other. Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity. Targeting Fury Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK rival Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory. "Jake Paul is better than Fury - he showed up," Joshua commented. "I respect him for that." Serious Opponent In spite of stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability. "Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked. Paul's History Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro. He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year. Commercial Success However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's greatest commercial attractions, consistently making huge earnings. Prediction and Confidence The 28 year old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the highly-expected match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now. "The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated. Physical Disparity As both boxers participated in the customary confrontation, with their size difference evident, it drove home just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is really going ahead.
