Jake Paul believes he is ‘more important’ for boxing than Anthony Joshua and insisted that fans of sport should ‘want me to win’ their fight in Miami.
The pair traded heated words at the final press conference ahead of their fight in Miami, in the early hours of Saturday morning UK time.
Joshua is returning to the ring for the first time since a knockout loss to Daniel Dubois in September 2025 and insisted this isn’t his “biggest payday”, while Paul is having his 14th boxing bout following a points win over former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in June.

Cool
He’s delusional, clearly the fake praise of all the sycophants takes its toll.
We all know jake is thinking if fat man KOd you i can. But i dont think he understands how strong and good that fat man was 😮.
Paul is as good as Andy ruiz and we all know what he did to AJ
It’s hard to believe that im actually making a prediction for this ‘fight’ but they say if you can’t beat them join them. This is a fight in my eyes that AJ has nothing at all to gain and everything to lose. AJ still has the power to KO any Heavyweight in the world,but i believe that after the devastating Daniel Dubois defeat,that he is a very vulnerable gun shy fighter who is past his peak years. Jake Paul has nothing at all to lose so he can come out swinging or just run around and try and survive for the eighth rounds. But all that said and done i just cant see how AJ can lose to a Lightheavy /Cruserweight YouTuber. AJ wins Full Stop on points or stoppage!? Morning all
This is just a waste of resources and time given to clowns instead of real sportsmen. Utmost disgraceful
Anyone giving away their money to watch this is a fool
Exihibition Fight veiled by contract. Everyone will be upset by noon.
World champion stick to you tube FFS what a thing to say
He couldn't have embarrassed himself anymore.
Mike Tyson would’ve knocked your ass out anybody wanna talk about Tyson but in his time nobody wanted to talk about Tyson
Why Jake Paul gotta be in front of AJ on the pic
Gg
I’m not interested in the fight, but why the hell schedule a fight with a British boxer that’s on at 1am UK time? It makes no sense. Surely they want the biggest possible audience in both the US and the UK.
Another fixed fight
I bet on Jake he needs to put some of that substance on his gloves Sonny Liston used against Ali to have a chance
Quite possibly the most pathetic thing to ever happen in boxing they have destroyed the sport
Seriously Jake Paul has made of mockery of boxing and if he passes the first round then it's definitely WWE.
I'm belive jasua is win 🏆 because jasua is from UK 🇬🇧
Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua.
It’ll be a totally different outcome if there’s only one that takes the winnings and we all know it’s gonna be a fake fight
What a joke , , having said that Jake Paul is rich from doing this stuff
Aj better breach this contract and bang him aint like hes short of money 😂
How sad another scripted joke
Is this scripted? The whole shenanigans; surely they just doing this to get paid…certainly AJ
Can’t wrap my mind around this nonsense ( don’t know how to call it) thing,
First time seen Anthony Joshua wear a big chain ⛓️💥
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
The one way this match is stopping apart from a Greenpeace protest is Jake Paul laying flat on his back wondering why he's there. Let's hope for the latter
disney prince is going to be in the WAR ZONE $$$$$$$$$$$$$$
AJ just warming up with this fight, he's lining up Geoffrey from Rainbow in February
AJ needs to knock him out and expose the bribery.
Jake a clown bro 😂 can't wait to see him get knocked out yes 😴 😅
Fight should end with brutal knockout by AJ, and if that doesn't happen, meaning that it's all staged
Watching this live, Funny that Katie Abdo (Scott) has an American accent lol sounds absolutely ridiculous
Been up for this fight cannot believe the amount of professional fighters mainly on Jakes undercard actually giving Jake the support and expecting him to win including that clown Alycia Baumgardner! How can any professional expect that.
If it is a real fight.
This is why I am disappointed AJ took the fight. Gave these muppets a platform.
If a real fight happy to see Jake KO’d. If fake glad to see AJ ruin his credibility he deserves it.
Not sure what was more excruciating, this scripted circus or Kate Scott’s fake American accent.
Embarressing! But thats where we are these days in society!
A pro boxer cant K.O a YT nobody in the 1st round but KO'd better fighters than Jake Paul in less! 🙄🤦♂️
Who else watching this after fight?😂😂😂
A great big heavyweight throws 4 soft jabs into jakes chest over the first 2 rounds looks to me that the script read dont hurt him for the first 2 rounds to earn a bonus.job done
All it was today was a promoting for Jake Paul and for a call out to Tyson fury but Tyson fury already said his a wet whip for fighting him before the fight 🤣🤣🤣
Both of them blabbing bs.
Listening to this waffle….Jakes done more for boxing than anyone else in the last 10 years & AJ wants to show case his skills 😂 what a circus RIP 🥊 Boxing
You'll fight for the bag? And you will say millions of people will do that? One problem with that, tho … you are assuming you will live. If I was a Mike Tyson type, a life taking seeker. NONE OF YOU, WILL BE COMING HOME!!! Not one, because killing you to me, is LEGAL!!! Lol
