The British boxer will face Jake Paul in an eight-bout contest which will be broadcast in real-time on the streaming platform.
British boxer Joshua stated he will "stamp all over" the American and "break" his opponent as the pair confronted each other to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two time unified title holder Joshua battles YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's arena on 19 December.
Fighter's Attitude
"I will break his face and break his body up. I aim to demonstrate my superiority," Joshua, 35, stated.
"I will dominate him completely. That's the boxer's mindset.
"I'm going to seriously aim to injure him. That's what I want to do."
Civil Interaction
In spite of such comments, a relaxed Anthony Joshua and social media star Paul - typically known for his showmanship - were respectful and maintained decorum with each other.
Jake Paul instead targeted former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.
Taking Aim at Fury
Joshua, in the meantime, took aim at British opponent Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a Paul win.
"Jake Paul is superior to Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I respect him for that."
Legitimate Opponent
Despite saying he intends to damage his opponent, Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's pugilistic talent.
"Jake is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Paul's History
Jake Paul - who originally gained popularity on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Success
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of boxing's largest money-making draws, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Belief
The 28-year-old anticipated a stoppage in round four or five and asserted he would stop the much-anticipated Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly in the works for two years from now.
"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Paul declared.
Size Difference
As Joshua and Paul met for the customary stare-down, with their size difference clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how astonishing it is that the bout is really happening.
