With the Brit heavyweight now set for months out the ring, he appears to be enjoying his downtime as enjoys time with friends and family.

One picture from the Trove restaurant in Dubai shows Joshua sat upon a massive throne made of roses.

Joshua wears a black T-shirt, black trousers and white trainers as he placed himself upon the eye-catching seat.

The throne is so big that 6’6 Joshua’s feet are not even touching the ground.

Another picture on the boxer’s Instagram shows him gathering with family to enjoy a meal.

Four children are sat with Joshua as delicious-looking dishes are spread across the table.

Joshua, wearing a white dressing gown, captions the snap: “Hip hop and a family feast.”

AJ stunned fans by announcing earlier this week that his next fight will not be until December.

That is despite earlier indicating that he wanted to get straight back in the ring to build momentum after the victory over Franklin.

Joshua admitted the situation was “not ideal”.

Fans have been speculating over who the fighter’s next opponent might be.

Promoter Eddie Hearn hinted that Dillian Whyte is most likely as he discussed AJ’s future.

He told Chris Mannix: “I think that’s the frontrunner. I quite like the Otto Wallin fight, really, but he’s a southpaw.

“So if a deal can be reached with Dillian Whyte, then I think that would be a smart fight for both.”
