ANTHONY JOSHUA showed off his incredible bulging biceps while flogging himself in the gym to get in shape for his fight with Kubrat Pulev.
Heavyweight world champ AJ, 31, is set to defend his belts against the 39-year-old Bulgarian on December 12.
Joshua shared a snap of his insanely ripped and vascular arms on Instagram, and joked in the caption: “AJ workout plans coming soon.”
SunSport exclusively revealed the Watford fighter’s Matchroom promoters are hoping to have 1,000 fans in attendance.
The fight is scheduled to be held at the O2 but could be moved to Wembley Arena in anticipation of some fans returning for the first time since March as England moves out of lockdown into a tiered system.
New rules announced by the prime minister Boris Johnson this week permit fans in Tiers 1 and 2 to return to indoor and outdoor sporting events from December 2.
London is expected to be placed in Tier 2 and it has been reported that would allow for 1,000 fans indoors, or 50 per cent capacity.
But any fans that are not in attendance will have to fork out £24.95 to watch the pay-per-view bout with Joshua in action for the first time in 12 months.
Supporters have fumed online about the hefty fee which equals the British PPV record set by AJ’s win over Andy Ruiz Jr last year.
But Eddie Hearn has justified the price by highlighting that there has been no increase on his last fight – despite the inability to pack out a stadium with 70,000 people due to the pandemic.
The Matchroom Boxing supremo said: “We had 70,000 people at Tottenham that are no longer coming so we decided to keep the PPV price the same as his last fight.
“No price increase, despite the fact there are millions and millions no longer coming into the fight.”
But Hearn revealed a super all-British unification bout between AJ and Tyson Fury could cost fans nearly £30 in the future.
