Anthony Joshua is in supreme shape ahead of potentially bagging another world title.

The WBA (super) and IBF heavyweight world champion is gunning for his third recognised belt in the shape of Joseph Parker's WBO strap.

And on March 31st, the pair of undefeated big boys go head-to-head at Cardiff's Principality Stadium to determine the unified holder.

While Joshua successfully defended his titles in his last outing against Carlos Takam, he failed to impress. Mainly down to his stubborn opponent who fought valiantly before being prematurely stopped in the 10th round.

Joshua entered that bout against the Cameroonian-Frenchman at his heaviest weight, tipping the scales at 18st & 2lbs.

He's looking to lean up for the challenge of the Kiwi-fighter, and the 28-year-old is looking absolutely shredded in training camp.

Unreal shape.

Joshua looks very fit. And he's hoping his opponent is fit come fight night.

"I hope he is training well, I hope he's fit," Joshua said about Parker.

While goading Parker into an entertaining bout for the fight fans.

"Because you know what it is right, people wait 10-12 weeks for us to come together and no one wants to lay down the first or second round.

"I hope he's fit and he's ready for a good fight because I am," he added.

2017 was a huge year for Joshua. He became unified champion of the world following his fire fight with legendary Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium.

He rounded off the year with a lackluster bout against Takam, but is eager to deliver on March 31st while collecting another belt in the process.

Joshua vs. Parker can't come soon enough!

Who takes it? Let us know.
