Why This Fight Happened

MVP and Netflix confirmed Jake vs Joshua: Judgment Day, an 8-round sanctioned heavyweight fight with 10oz gloves.
Jake Paul enters as a cruiserweight riser making a massive leap; Anthony Joshua walks in as a two-time unified heavyweight ruler with stadium pedigree.

This is Paul’s second Netflix headliner after his streamed win over Mike Tyson in 2024.


What Jake Paul Says

Jake Paul made his intentions clear:

“A professional heavyweight fight against an elite world champion in his prime. When I beat Anthony Joshua, every doubt disappears… On December 19 in Miami, live globally on Netflix, the torch gets passed and Britain’s Goliath goes to sleep.”


What Anthony Joshua Says

Joshua sharpened his stance:

“Jake or anyone can get this work. No mercy. I’m coming back with a mega show, big fights, big numbers. I’m about to break the internet over Jake Paul’s face.”


How Promoters View It

MVP (Nakisa Bidarian)

Bidarian said the fight happened earlier than expected, noting:

  • Joshua carries every advantage except the level of belief Paul has in himself

  • Jake is the key figure of boxing’s new era

  • Joshua remains the King of UK boxing

Spitzer pointed out Joshua is one of the toughest heavyweights alive and praised Paul’s willingness to take risks — aligning with Netflix’s plan to expand live sports.

Eddie Hearn

Hearn offered a British verdict:

“Two of the biggest names in boxing will collide. Jake has courage, but he’ll find out the hard way in Miami.”
