The fight between two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) and Jake Paul (12-1, 7 KOs) has been officially confirmed. The meeting will take place on December 19 in Miami. The broadcast will be available on the Netflix platform.

The fight will be included in the boxers' records, meaning it will be official, and it is scheduled for 8 rounds of 3 minutes each. The boxers will compete in 10-ounce gloves, as is usual in the heavyweight division.

Negotiations for this fight went on for several months, but in the end, the parties could not reach an agreement. Negotiations resumed after Paul's fight with Gervonta Davis was canceled, which was initially scheduled for the following weekend.

Thus, Joshua will return to the ring after last year's loss to Daniel Dubois. Jake Paul's last fight was a victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Until now, Paul has mainly fought in the cruiserweight division.
