Briton Anthony Joshua said he will “stomp all over” Jake Paul and “break” the American as the pair came face-to-face to promote next month’s heavyweight fight.<\/b><\/p>\n
Former two-time unified heavyweight champion Joshua meets YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul – in what is, on paper, a mammoth mismatch – at Miami’s Kaseya Center on 19 December.<\/p>\n
“I’m going to break his face and break his body up. I’m here to prove I’m the better fighter,” Joshua, 35, said.<\/p>\n
“I’ll stomp all over him. That’s a fighter’s mentality.<\/p>\n
“I’m going to really want to hurt him. That’s what I want to do.”<\/p>\n
Despite those words, a relaxed Joshua and social media star Paul – usually known for his theatrics – exchanged pleasantries and kept it respectful with each other. <\/p>\n
Paul instead targeted Joshua’s former opponent Francis Ngannou and called him “a joke” after the Cameroonian declined a fight offer. <\/p>\n
He claimed the December bout had also been offered to Tommy Fury and Ryan Garcia but they were “scared”, while pound-for-pound star Terence Crawford had agreed to fight him next year.<\/p>\n
Joshua, meanwhile, took aim at British rival Tyson Fury – Tommy’s brother – and refused a \u00a31m bet ‘The Gypsy King’ says he will place on a Paul win.<\/p>\n
“[Paul] is better than Tyson Fury – he’s actually sitting here. I give him credit for that,” Joshua said.<\/p>\n
“I’m just here to fight. I’ll get the job done, collect my cheque and that’s it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
