At 36, Joshua has been favored by many to dominate the American fighter due to his extensive experience in the ring.
The two-time world champion even issued a challenge in the ring.
AJ has expressed confidence in facing his opponent, but it appears he will not underestimate him.
However, fan predictions for the bout have started to lean towards the underdog.
This shift in opinion follows the release of footage showing AJ training with a skipping rope.
The boxer displayed some impressive skills as he attempted to replicate an iconic routine.
Nevertheless, fans seemed unimpressed and speculated that Paul could emerge victorious.
One fan commented: “I now think Jake will win.”
Another wrote: “Jake is going to knock out Joshua, lol. Joshua is just trying to secure his final payday before retiring.”
A third added: “It’s definitely over for AJ.”
A fourth remarked: “I initially thought it would be an easy win for AJ, but now I’m not so sure.”
Another fan stated: “It looks like Paul is going to win this, ughhh.”
Paul has been actively trying to influence the fight by imposing a weight limit on AJ.
The British fighter must not exceed 245lbs for their matchup in Miami.

Paul has also persuaded AJ to agree to a significantly larger ring for the fight.
The promoter has disclosed that they will compete in a 22x22ft ring, which is one of the largest available.
The Problem Child confirmed the larger ring size early Thursday morning.
During the final pre-fight press conference, he remarked about the ring dimensions: “That’s correct.
“It’s pretty standard. I believe fight rings typically range from 20-foot to 24-foot sizes.
“So, at 22 feet, I feel very positive about it.”
