Boxer's Mentality

"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show my superiority," the British boxer, 35, said.

"I will dominate him completely. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I will genuinely try to injure him. That's my intention."

Civil Exchange

Despite these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Paul - typically famous for his dramatics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.

Paul rather attacked ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "not serious" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, at the same time, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'Tyson Fury' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.

"Jake Paul outshines Tyson Fury - he showed up," Joshua said.

"I give him credit for that."

Legitimate Fighter

In spite of saying he intends to punish Paul, Anthony Joshua declined to comment unfavorably about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake is a credible opponent," he stated.

Paul's Background

Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mostly boxed mixed martial artists or faded names since entering professional boxing.

He was defeated by Briton Fury in last year.

Commercial Success

However, the inexperienced fighter remains one of boxing's greatest money-making draws, regularly earning huge earnings.

Forecast and Belief

The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in round four or five and stated he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently being planned for two years from now.

"It's going to be me versus Tyson Fury next year," Jake Paul said.

Size Difference

As both boxers participated in the customary stare-down, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the fight is actually proceeding.
