The British boxer will face the American YouTuber in an eight-bout fight which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "stamp all over" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.
Former twice unified title holder Anthony Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive mismatch - at Miami's arena on December 19th.
Boxer's Attitude
"I'm going to injure his face and break his body up. My goal is to show my superiority," Joshua, 35, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to seriously aim to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of those words, a composed Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - usually recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, criticized British opponent Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is superior to Tyson Fury - he's present here," the boxer said.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Joshua declined to speak negatively about his rival's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
However, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, regularly earning massive financial rewards.
Prediction and Belief
The 28 year old anticipated a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Jake Paul declared.
Physical Disparity
As the two fighters engaged in the traditional stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how improbable this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the match is truly happening.
