Anthony Joshua will face the American YouTuber in an eight-bout contest which will be broadcast live on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua said he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "break" his opponent as the combatants confronted each other to build hype for next month's heavyweight fight.
Ex two-time unified title holder Anthony Joshua meets social media star turned fighter Paul - in what is, by the numbers, a mammoth mismatch - at Miami arena on December 19th.
Fighter's Mentality
"I'm going to damage his features and damage his physique. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, stated.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I will genuinely try to cause him pain. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Interaction
Despite these statements, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Paul - normally known for his dramatics - exchanged pleasantries and remained civil with each other.
Jake Paul instead criticized former Joshua's rival Francis Ngannou and described him as "not serious" after the Cameroonian turned down a bout proposal.
Taking Aim at Tyson Fury
Joshua, meanwhile, targeted UK rival Fury - and refused a million-pound wager 'The Gypsy King' states he will put on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is better than Tyson Fury - he showed up," the boxer said.
"I respect him for that."
Serious Opponent
Despite stating he plans to punish Paul, Joshua refused to comment unfavorably about his opponent's fighting skills.
"Jake Paul is a serious fighter," he remarked.
Jake Paul's Background
Jake Paul - who initially became famous on the television network - has primarily fought MMA fighters or past-their-prime fighters since turning professional.
He lost to Briton Fury in 2023.
Financial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice remains one of the sport's biggest financial successes, consistently making substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28 year old predicted a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would prevent the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is apparently under discussion for 2026.
"The next fight will be myself against Tyson Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters met for the customary confrontation, with their physical disparity clearly visible, it emphasized just how surprising this complete situation is - and how amazing it is that the bout is truly happening.
