The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight-round fight which will be shown in real-time on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua declared he will "dominate completely" the American and "overpower" the American as the combatants came face-to-face to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua faces social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge uneven pairing - at Miami venue on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I plan to injure his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's my intention."
Civil Interaction
In spite of these statements, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Jake Paul - normally famous for his showmanship - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.
Paul instead attacked ex Joshua opponent Francis Ngannou and described him as "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Targeting Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK rival Fury - and rejected a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul outshines Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he stated.
Paul's History
Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Still, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, frequently receiving substantial paydays.
Prediction and Confidence
The 28 year old forecast a knockout win in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly being planned for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul declared.
Size Difference
As the two fighters met for the customary face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how improbable this entire matchup is - and how amazing it is that the fight is actually happening.
