Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) might have put forth a rather Luciferian notion about wanting to claim Jake Paul’s (12-1, 7 KOs) soul. However, it looks like ‘El Gallo’ might just have a plan to counteract this, and it’s straight from the bible.

Talking to ESPN, Paul was sure of how he wanted to see the fight end, just like that of the shepherd king and the warrior giant.

“I’ve studied David and Goliath going into this fight,” he said. “There’s a split-second moment where Goliath draws back his arrow, and that’s when David can hit him. I believe the same thing will happen here. There’s going to be a moment when Joshua is exposed, and I know I have the power to be able to beat him.”

There is no denying that the matchup is straight out of the story of David and Goliath. The face-off saw the far larger Joshua towering over Paul, who barely made it to his chin.

However, it looks like Paul is not going to let the size difference be a deciding factor for the fight. In fact, he is planning to surprise everyone in attendance with how he has improved his offense as a fighter, with a grand plan to end the fight early and explosively.

“You’ll definitely see a lot more skill in my boxing, but I don’t think I’m going to have the highest punch output for this fight. I think I end up knocking him out in the fourth or fifth round,” he said.

“I Get Into Politics”

While the Joshua fight is a major affair in itself, the question still remains: What’s next? Paul’s plans are wild to say the least, and they stretch from ruling the world of boxing to ruling the world.

“I’m not totally sure where I would go from here. The only thing left to do is become a world champion, but I really don’t know. I think my next career move after this has to be something to do with helping and inspiring the world,” he said during the same interview. “This fight is one way to do it, but maybe I get into politics. Imagine Jake Paul entering a space like that. It’s going to be more people talking sh*t there for sure.”
