Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul in an eight round match which will be shown in real-time on the streaming platform.
Briton Joshua stated he will "dominate completely" Jake Paul and "defeat" his opponent as the two fighters met personally to publicize next month's heavyweight fight.
Former two time unified title holder Anthony Joshua faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul - in what is, theoretically, a massive uneven pairing - at Miami's venue on December 19th.
Boxer's Mentality
"I'm going to break his face and hurt his body. I aim to demonstrate I'm superior," the British boxer, 35, said.
"I'll stamp all over him. That's a fighter's mentality.
"I intend to seriously aim to hurt him. That's what I want to do."
Respectful Exchange
In spite of these statements, a calm Joshua and social media star Jake Paul - usually recognized for his theatrics - exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other.
Jake Paul instead attacked former Joshua rival Francis Ngannou and called him "a joke" after Ngannou turned down a match opportunity.
Targeting Fury
Joshua, at the same time, took aim at UK rival Tyson Fury - and declined a large bet 'The Gypsy King' says he will place on a victory for Paul.
"Jake Paul is better than Fury - he showed up," the boxer stated.
"I give him credit for that."
Legitimate Fighter
In spite of declaring he will damage his opponent, Joshua refused to speak negatively about his rival's pugilistic talent.
"Jake Paul is a credible opponent," he remarked.
Paul's Background
Paul - who first rose to fame on the Disney Channel - has mostly fought mixed martial artists or declining opponents since becoming pro.
He lost to British fighter Fury in last year.
Commercial Attraction
Nevertheless, the novice is still one of boxing's largest financial successes, regularly earning substantial financial rewards.
Forecast and Confidence
The 28-year-old anticipated a KO victory in the fourth or fifth round and claimed he would derail the long-awaited match between Joshua and Fury, which is allegedly being planned for 2026.
"It's going to be my match with Fury next year," Paul stated.
Physical Difference
As the two fighters met for the traditional face-off, with their physical disparity on show, it highlighted just how surprising this complete situation is - and how remarkable it is that the match is really going ahead.
