Joshua has already verbally agreed to a double header to face the Gypsy King for next year.

But the London 2012 gold medallist is first putting his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles on the line against Bulgarian Pulev on December 12.

And AJ has once again wowed fans with his latest promo pictures ahead of the fight that showed the boxer flaunt his incredible bulging biceps.

He captioned the snaps on Instagram: “Each fight holds a story.”

Although countless fans swarmed to flood the comment section by hailing Joshua, Lennox Lewis issued a word of caution to the Watford star.

Lion shared his belief that Fury will emerge victorious over his fellow Brit when they finally meet in the ring in 2021.

As quoted by the Daily Mail, he said: “The Fury and Joshua fight, you have got two big guys and they can punch and they can box.

“You’ve got Fury, he is a switch hitter and he is going into the fight with a lot more dangerous things to watch out for – the fact that he can punch with left hand, with his right.

“He is a slugger as well, the way he went after Deontay (Wilder), nobody expected that. He said what he is going to do and he did it. I like guys who box with confidence like that.”

Lewis later revealed that Fury’s height compared to Joshua – the Gypsy King has three-inches on his rival – will give him a lot of advantages.

He added: “I have always said that it is always difficult boxing taller guys.

“He is 6ft 9, you are not going to get any sparring partners who are 6ft 9 to go in there.

“AJ has to figure that out as well. It is going to take him a few rounds.”
