Boxer's Attitude

"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. My goal is to show I'm superior," Joshua, 35, stated.

"I'll stamp all over him. That's the boxer's mindset.

"I will seriously aim to injure him. That's what I want to do."

Civil Exchange

Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and internet personality Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - shared friendly words and remained civil with each other.

Paul rather criticized ex Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and labeled him "a joke" after Ngannou rejected a match opportunity.

Taking Aim at Fury

Anthony Joshua, at the same time, targeted British rival Tyson Fury - and rejected a million-pound wager 'Tyson Fury' says he will place on a Paul victory.

"[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury - he's present here," Joshua said.

"I acknowledge that."

Serious Fighter

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

"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he said.

Jake Paul's History

Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since entering professional boxing.

He lost to British fighter Tommy Fury in last year.

Financial Success

However, the novice continues to be one of the sport's greatest commercial attractions, frequently receiving massive financial rewards.

Forecast and Belief

The 28 year old predicted a stoppage in rounds four or five and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is reportedly under discussion for two years from now.

"The next fight will be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated.

Physical Difference

As the two fighters met for the usual confrontation, with their size difference evident, it emphasized just how improbable this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the match is truly going ahead.
