Boxer's Mindset

"I'm going to injure his face and damage his physique. I'm here to prove I'm the better fighter," Joshua, 35 years old, declared.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's how fighters think.

"I intend to really want to cause him pain. That's my intention."

Respectful Interaction

In spite of those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Paul - normally recognized for his dramatics - shared friendly words and maintained decorum with each other.

Paul rather criticized former Joshua rival the Cameroonian fighter and described him as "ridiculous" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Joshua, in the meantime, targeted British opponent Fury - and refused a £1m bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.

"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," Joshua said.

"I respect him for that."

Serious Opponent

Despite stating he plans to damage his opponent, Anthony Joshua chose not to speak negatively about his rival's boxing ability.

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he remarked.

Jake Paul's Background

Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has mostly boxed MMA fighters or declining opponents since turning professional.

He was defeated by British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's largest financial successes, regularly earning huge earnings.

Prediction and Belief

The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in rounds four or five and claimed he would stop the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently in the works for two years from now.

"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.

Size Difference

As both boxers engaged in the usual face-off, with their physical disparity evident, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly proceeding.
