The highly anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Anthony Joshua has finally arrived, which is taking place in Miami, Florida's Kaseya Center.

The boxing community is collectively tuned in to Netflix on the evening of December 19 to see whether Anthony Joshua will separate Jake Paul from consciousness, as so many believe, or whether Jake can find a way to get his hand raised and produce perhaps the biggest upset in sports history.

Regardless of what fans think about Paul, he deserves a lot of credit for being willing to face a heavyweight legend like Joshua, who is still active and capable of doing a lot of damage to Paul, both physically and in terms of his standing in the sport.

While some believe that Paul only has a puncher's chance against Joshua, it seems likely that he will employ a game plan of moving around the ring a lot in the early rounds and trying to bait Joshua into throwing big punches that miss, thus tiring him out so that Paul can capitalize in the later rounds.

The problem is that even just one punch landing flush from Joshua has a chance to alter the entire fight's trajectory.

Below is the full Paul vs. Joshua fight card, including the results of the prelims that have aired on Netflix.

Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua Results:

Anderson Silva vs Tyron Woodley

Two UFC legends go toe-to-toe on the Paul vs. Joshua main card, as Anderson Silva (3-2) faces Tyron Woodley (0-2). Both of these guys have lose boxing bouts to Jake Paul, and Woodley's last boxing fight was when he got knocked out by Paul almost exactly four years ago.

- It was a quiet first round from both fighters, as Silva barely threw a punch. Nothing of significance from either guy but it likely went to Woodley because he was more active.

Jahmal Harvey vs Kevin Cervantes (Harvey wins via unanimous decision)

The Paul vs. Joshua main card began with a six-round super featherweight bout between Jahmal Harvey (1-0) and Kevin Cervantes (5-0). Harvey is an extremely hyped boxing prospect, as he won a gold medal at the 2021 World Championships, competed in the Paris 2024 Olympics, and entered this fight as a gigantic -3500 favorite.

Harvey's speed advantage was apparent out of the gates, as he was peppering Cevantes with jabs early and following up with vicious combos. He knocked Cervantes less than 100 seconds into the fight and continued to tag him throughout the bout with little worry about what was coming back at him.

Harvey continued to impress in the later rounds and was landing at will. Ultimately, Harvey cruised to a unanimous decision victory (60-63, 60-63, 60-53).

The hype around Harvey is real.
