Olympic champion, future heavyweight star, the next Lennox Lewis... and a street dancer to boot?

With three fights lined up over the next five weeks, Anthony Joshua has precious little time to relax.

But he managed to take a break from training on Thursday to throw some shapes after a dance group dropped by his gym.

Joshua, who won gold in London last year, has stopped his first two opponents as a professional in eye-catching style.

The 24 year old needed less than three minutes to dispose of Italian Emanuele Leo on his debut before veteran Paul Butlin lasted until the second round in Sheffield.

Joshua will face Hrvoje Kisicek next Thursday when he headlines a Prizefighter show at London’s York Hall before he tackles Hector Avila - who took Dereck Chisora nine rounds in June - on the undercard of Carl Froch’s world title fight with George Groves.

He will then hope to sign off his year in style when he takes on Welshman Dorian Darch on December 14 at the Excel Arena, the venue where he was crowned Olympic champion.
