The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be streamed live on Netflix.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "defeat" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to promote next month's heavyweight fight.
Former twice world boxing king Anthony Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I plan to damage his features and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35 years old, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.
"I will really want to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
Despite those words, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - typically recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul rather targeted former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK opponent Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua refused to speak negatively about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.
Financial Success
Still, the novice continues to be one of boxing's biggest commercial attractions, regularly earning huge earnings.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would stop the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly being planned for two years from now.
"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters met for the usual stare-down, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is actually happening.
