Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-round match which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the pair met personally to promote next month's bout.
Former two-time world boxing king Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, declared.
"I plan to overwhelm him. That's how fighters think.
"I'm going to seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Respectful Interaction
Despite those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - normally recognized for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul rather attacked ex Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, at the same time, criticized British rival Fury - and rejected a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a Paul victory.
"[Paul] is superior to Fury - he showed up," Joshua said.
"I give him credit for that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by British fighter Fury in last year.
Financial Success
However, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's largest money-making draws, consistently making massive financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old forecast a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would derail the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"It will be my match with Fury next year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul engaged in the customary confrontation, with their size difference clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually happening.
