The British boxer prepares to battle Jake Paul in an eight round contest which will be streamed live on Netflix.
Briton Joshua stated he will "overwhelm entirely" the American and "break" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to promote next month's bout.
Ex twice unified boxing king Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a huge mismatch - at Miami's Kaseya Center on December 19th.
Fighter's Attitude
"I'm going to break his face and break his body up. I'm here to prove I'm superior," the British boxer, 35 years old, said.
"I will dominate him completely. That's how fighters think.
"I will seriously aim to injure him. That's my goal."
Civil Exchange
Despite those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - normally famous for his theatrics - were respectful and remained civil with each other.
Paul rather attacked former Joshua's opponent the Cameroonian fighter and called him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Fury
Anthony Joshua, meanwhile, targeted British rival Fury - and declined a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' claims he will make on a victory for Paul.
"[Paul] is superior to Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer commented.
"I acknowledge that."
Legitimate Fighter
Despite declaring he will punish Paul, Anthony Joshua chose not to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake is a legitimate boxer," he stated.
Jake Paul's History
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the Disney Channel - has mainly fought mixed martial artists or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in 2023.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the inexperienced fighter is still one of the sport's greatest money-making draws, frequently receiving substantial earnings.
Prediction and Belief
The 28-year-old forecast a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and asserted he would prevent the long-awaited Fury-Joshua bout, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.
"It's going to be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul said.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters engaged in the usual face-off, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how unlikely this complete situation is - and how astonishing it is that the match is actually happening.
