      And after failed talks for a shock WBC title fight against Tyson Fury, 34, in December, Joshua, 33, took some time out the ring.
      Now, promoter Eddie Hearn revealed a comeback date is set for April 1 at the O2 Arena, with opponents still being evaluated.
      SunSport understands attention has switched to Franklin, 29, who AJ watched from ringside lose to Dillian Whyte, 34, in November.
      The majority-decision was disputed with many feeling the Michigan man was unfortunate to walk away beaten.

      It has set up a summer stadium rematch between Joshua and Whyte, who he beat in 2015.
      Although both are set for separate bouts in the meantime, with Joshua’s coming in the first month on April, at the O2 for the first time in seven years.
      Southpaws Otto Wallin, 32, and Demsey McKean, 32, were also in consideration but Franklin, who cuts a similar frame to Whyte, looks ready to get the nod.
      The Daily Star were first to report talks between Joshua and Franklin.

      AJ has recently returned Stateside in search for a new trainer, having split with Robert Garcia after defeat to Usyk, 35.
      And Derrick James, coach to Errol Spence Jr, 32, and Jermell Charlo, 32, is believed to be the choice.
      James was nominated for trainer of the year, having led Charlo to undisputed gold at light-middleweight and three unified welterweight titles with Spence.
      Joshua would spend his entire training camp in Dallas, before returning from Texas for his fight back in the capital.

      Chris Eubank Jr vs Liam Smith tale of the tape: Where will middleweight clash be won and lost ahead of huge main event?

      by

      CHRIS EUBANK JR will return to the ring for the first time in nearly a year when he takes on Liam Smith.The pair are set to face off in a middleweight bout at the AO Arena in Manchester on January 21.
      Chris Eubank Jr, left, and Liam Smith, right, will clash on January 21Credit: PA
      And while Eubank, 33, is the bookies’ favourite heading into the clash, it is a highly competitive fight to kick off British boxing in 2023.
      Smith, 34, is a former world champion having claimed the WBO light-middleweight title in 2016.
      He ended up relinquishing the belt to pound-for-pound star Canelo Alvarez and has gone on to lose on two more occasions against Jaime Munguia and Magomed Kurbanov.
      But he has been more active in recent times, beating Jessie Vargas and Hassan Mwakinyo in the last nine months.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      By contrast, Eubank has not fought since defeating Liam Williams by unanimous decision in February 2022.
      He was scheduled to face Conor Benn in a much-anticipated catchweight fight in October.
      But the bout fell through when Benn failed a drugs test.
      So how do Eubank and Smith match up? Well, SunSport has taken a look at the tale of the tape.

      How Eubank and Smith stack up ahead of their middleweight bout
      Smith is one year older than Eubank and has had two more professional fights.
      The Liverpudlian also turned pro three years earlier than his British rival.
      The pair share the same number of wins – 32 – but Smith has one more loss on his record.
      The former world champion’s three defeats compare to Eubank’s two – which came at the hands of Billy Joe Saunders and George Groves.
      Eubank has four more knockouts, although neither man is known as a particularly huge puncher.
      But when it comes to size, Smith does have a little deficit to make up.
      He is more than an inch smaller, has been operating at 154lbs until recently, and has a four-inch reach disadvantage. More
