Boxer's Mindset

"I'm going to break his face and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm the better fighter," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.

"I plan to overwhelm him. That's a fighter's mentality.

"I'm going to really want to injure him. That's my intention."

Respectful Exchange

In spite of such comments, a composed Anthony Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually known for his theatrics - were respectful and kept it respectful with each other.

Paul rather targeted ex Joshua's rival the Cameroonian fighter and called him "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.

Targeting Fury

Anthony Joshua, at the same time, targeted British opponent Tyson Fury - and refused a large bet 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.

"[Paul] is better than Fury - he's actually sitting here," the boxer commented.

"I respect him for that."

Legitimate Opponent

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

"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he said.

Paul's History

Jake Paul - who first rose to fame on the television network - has primarily boxed mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since becoming pro.

He was defeated by Briton Tommy Fury in 2023.

Financial Attraction

Nevertheless, the novice continues to be one of boxing's greatest financial successes, regularly earning huge earnings.

Forecast and Confidence

The 28-year-old predicted a knockout win in the fourth or fifth round and stated he would stop the much-anticipated match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for two years from now.

"The next fight will be me versus Tyson Fury in the coming year," Jake Paul stated.

Size Difference

As both boxers participated in the customary face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it emphasized just how surprising this whole event is - and how remarkable it is that the fight is actually happening.
