Anthony Joshua enjoys downtime in Miami as heavyweight champ flexes on the beach.
Joshua is eyeing a mouthwatering rematch with Dillian Whyte – should the latter get the better of arch-rival Dereck Chisora.
HEAVYWEIGHT star Anthony Joshua is playing the waiting game as he hunts for his next opponent in the ring.
The Watford man, who admits he is licking his lips at the prospect of a rematch with Dillian Whyte, has been enjoying some well-deserved down time with friends in Miami.
AJ had a gleam in his eye as he was pictured flexing his muscles while taking a stroll on the beach.
The ongoing saga with Deontay Wilder – who has stunned TV viewers by showing off his gun collection – continues to run on, but Joshua has other fights on his horizon now.
Joshua, 29, has been chasing a unification bout with Wilder for months, but doubts are creeping in as to whether the pair will ever fight.
And with Whyte and Dereck Chisora set for a rematch to their 2016 barnstormer on December 22 at London’s O2 Arena, Joshua is waiting eagerly in the wings.
Speaking to Sky Sports he said: “I am not out again until next year, April 13. You know we’re ready Wilder.
“But this isn’t about me, this is about Chisora-Whyte. I am looking forward to that fight, I will be there.
“It’s a blessing to take myself out of training and go and watch these guys go and perform and see it from a different point of view.”
He continued: “If I was a betting man? I want Chisora to win because he’s my guy, north west London.
“And Dillian, I want him to win because I want to box him again.
“Come April 13, if Wilder doesn’t step up, they’re my two options.
“Good luck to Chisora, good luck to Whyte, they’re both relevant wins for me.”
