A canceled fight, a move in weight and a very big question on the veracity of the main event later and we are here. It’s nearly time to rumble as Jake Paul sits down next to Anthony Joshua at the press conference for the Dec. 19 fight.
The sizable Joshua – 6-foot-6 and usually fighting above 250 pounds – presents as both a physical and existential test for the more diminutive Jake Paul. Joshua has the height and weight to make mere mortals shudder. But he also comes into the ring with acumen, a 28-4 record with 25 of those wins by KO. He has also twice held the unified heavyweight title.
Friday’s fight presents a true test of mettle for Paul. The party gets started on Wednesday with a press conference that USA TODAY will cover with updates. First, here is how to watch the entire event:
