Even if Anthony Joshua privately views Jake Paul as a lucrative late-December stocking stuffer wrapped in Netflix money, he’s not letting it show. The former two-time unified heavyweight champion is treating Paul like a legitimate threat at least on the surface ahead of their December 19 clash at Miami’s Kaseya Center.

What he is willing to share? That he plans to ruin Paul.

“I’m going to break his face,” Joshua said bluntly at a recent press conference. “I am going to break his body up. I’m going to stomp all over him. That’s my fighter’s mentality… I need to cut him up, I need to break him up, and I need to hurt him.
