Anthony Joshua shows off ripped physique with still two months until fight as Brit shows off skills in Saudi Arabia

ANTHONY JOSHUA showed off his ripped and shredded physique in Saudi Arabia with still over two months to go until his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.

The two-time heavyweight champion lost his WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO titles to the Ukrainian last September after being completely outclassed at the Tottenham Stadium.

After months of wrangling, AJ will finally get his shot at revenge in their rematch on August 20 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The two fighters came face-to-face again last week in the build-up to their second fight in the Middle East.

And Joshua already looks to be in superb condition after he shared several snaps of him working out in the ring out there in front of the media.

That was also followed by another shot of him wearing a huge grin while posing for a selfie in front of his adoring public.

The Brit captioned the photos with “Arabian Nights” and they soon attracted plenty of comments from his fans on Instagram.

One follower commented “Beast mode” as another said: “This is one of the coolest media workout pics of all time no doubt.”

Many fans are predicting that that Joshua, who has brought in new coach Robert Garcia to train him, will come unstuck again against his rival later this summer.

However, the 32-year-old insists that he will get the respect he deserves after inflicting a first-ever defeat to Usyk.

AJ told ESPN: “I feel when I go and beat Usyk, I’ll get the credit I deserve again.

“And I’ll get the admiration for being a true boxing legend. … I fought for the heavyweight championship in my 16th fight; I felt like it’s kind of overlooked.”

For those that doubt him after his poor display last time out, he said: “I knew where I wasn’t good enough, you know, areas where I was exposed.

“And look, I’ve got a third chance to become heavyweight champion of the world.

“I will address the weaknesses and then I’ll make sure I get it right and become champion again. I think it’s a task that’s definitely possible.”
