The British boxer is set to fight Jake Paul in an eight round fight which will be broadcast live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the combatants met personally to promote the upcoming boxing match.
Ex two-time world boxing king Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, on paper, a huge disparity - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Boxer's Mindset
"I plan to break his face and hurt his body. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to genuinely try to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of such comments, a calm Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - usually recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and kept it respectful with each other.
Paul rather criticized former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou declined a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua said.
"I acknowledge that."
Serious Fighter
In spite of saying he intends to hurt Jake Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to talk badly about his opponent's boxing ability.
"Jake is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the Disney Channel - has mainly boxed mixed martial artists or declining opponents since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Success
Still, the inexperienced fighter continues to be one of boxing's biggest financial successes, regularly earning massive paydays.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in rounds four or five and stated he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly in the works for 2026.
"It will be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters participated in the customary stare-down, with their height and weight contrast on show, it drove home just how surprising this entire matchup is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really proceeding.
