EDDIE HEARN says Anthony Joshua is in line for at least another FIVE fights.
AJ returns on September 21 at Wembley looking to become a three-time champion when he challenges for Daniel Dubois’ IBF title.
It comes two years after his rematch defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, 37, when he failed in his bid to regain the unified belts he lost the year before.
Joshua, 34, now prepares for his third bout under the guidance of new coach Ben Davison.
And the partnership looks to have added a few more fights and years on to AJ’s boxing career.
Hearn told talkSPORT: “Everything changes after every fight, but I think I’ve never seen him enjoy boxing so much.

“The preparation, the team. It’s simple but effective. I think he’s really found his rhythm with Ben [Davison] and the camp there.
“And I think if you look back after the Oleksandr Usyk fights you might have said, ‘How many more fights? Three? Five?’
“Well we’ve had four since then and now we’re saying five [more] still.
It’s always fight by fight.”
Joshua, 34, is coming off three wins as Hearn backed his man to dethrone Dubois, 26, in the Battle of Britain bout.

He said: “This is a very dangerous fight, but it’s a great fight. And as it gets closer I think people are starting to realise.
“People in boxing know what a great fight it is, but I think the general consensus is, ‘Oh, AJ’s a massive favourite.’
“I think he is a favourite, but if you look at people’s assessment within boxing.
“Obviously, they’re much more skewed towards it being a 50/50 than maybe the man on the street who doesn’t know a great deal about Dubois and the run that he’s on.
“I think they’re both in absolutely prime form but I do make Anthony the favourite in the fight.”
