ANTHONY JOSHUA has been told there are "two great fights" for him on the table… if he wants them.
Tyson Fury's promoter Frank Warren has challenged AJ to take on either Joe Joyce or Daniel Dubois in his comeback bout.
British boxing fans had been hoping for a mouthwatering clash between Joshua and Fury.
But after talks broke down, Fury is now set for a trilogy bout with Derek Chisora, while AJ's next opponent remains unconfirmed.
And Warren has told Joshua, 32, to take on either Joyce or Dubois, two potentially dangerous fights.
Warren told iFL TV: "If [Joshua] wants to fight, there’s two great fights there with Joe Joyce and Daniel Dubois.

"Both hold very significant positions in their respective organisations.
"They’re both mandatories. One is the interim champion, that’s Joe Joyce. Daniel is the WBA ‘Regular’ champion.
"There’s another way back if he wants to talk about it."
Joyce and Dubois have previously faced each other, with the latter taking a knee in the 10th round of their British title fight in 2020.

Joyce brutally knocked out Joseph Parker last month and is now mandatory challenger for Oleksandr Usyk's WBO heavyweight belt.
Dubois meanwhile is reportedly expected to take on South African Kevin Lerena next month.
But Warren reckons both Brits would be good match-ups for AJ, who has lost his last two fights against Usyk.
And a fight with Fury will not happen until Joshua makes himself a mandatory challenger.
Speaking on the failed clash between Fury and Joshua, Warren said: "It’s off the table.
"If you look at it, AJ has to get himself in the mandatory position. To get into the mandatory position, he gets 20 per cent of the purse bid, whereas he would have gotten 40 per cent."
