Former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has vowed to expose and stop Jake Paul when they clash on December 19 at Kaseya Centre in Miami.
Joshua, who is heavily favoured by bookmakers at over minus-1000, promised to dominate the eight-round Netflix bout.
“I’m going to break his face. I am going to break his body up. I’m going to stomp all over him. That’s my fighter’s mentality,” Joshua said at a recent press conference.
“I’m going to come forward, impose myself, land heavy punches and expose him to certain tricks in boxing that he may not have seen yet. I am going to bring him to another school of boxing that I don’t think he’s been exposed to yet.”
Despite his confidence, Joshua acknowledged Paul’s dedication and preparation.
“I see talent, focus, he puts in the work, has a good team—nothing negative. I take it seriously. He has a conqueror’s mentality. His mentality is solid,” he said.
Joshua, who holds a 28-4 record with 25 knockouts, is 6-4 since 2019 and hasn’t fought since a devastating fifth-round stoppage loss to Daniel Dubois in September 2024.
Paul brings a 12-1 record with seven knockouts into the contest.
Joshua is expected to fight again in February after the Paul bout and potentially face Tyson Fury in a fall matchup if successful.
“It’s a great opportunity for me to announce myself as a dominant figure once again. I want to be up just as much as people want to see me down. I’m hungry, devoted and dedicated,” Joshua said.
