ANTHONY JOSHUA is already at work with Tyson Fury’s former coach Ben Davison ahead of his fight against Otto Wallin.
AJ returns on December 23 in Saudi Arabia on the same night Deontay Wilder faces Joseph Parker.
Joshua has been cornered by Texan Derrick James for his last two bouts, beating Jermaine Franklin on points and a knockout of Robert Helenius.
But James is already in training camp with Ryan Garcia, who fights Oscar Duarte on December 2.
As a result, Joshua has decided to remain in the UK and has temporarily linked up with Davison.
The young coach made his name guiding Fury, 35, back to the ring in 2018 following the heavyweight’s battle with depression.

And he has since trained world champions in Billy Joe Saunders, Josh Taylor and currently Leigh Wood.
Joshua, 34, and Wilder, 38, were involved in a press conference to announce their massive show.
But straight after, AJ got into the gym with Davison and worked on power shots – much to the delight of fans.
One said: “This looks scary AJ using his power puts anyone to sleep early.”
