ANTHONY JOSHUA was all smiles despite his broken nose as he celebrated his win over Carlos Takam.
The heavyweight champ enjoyed a dance with his team following his 10th-round TKO.
And Joshua, 28, has every reason to be cheerful as he cleared the way for a massive 2018.
And British rival Tyson Fury is also being lined up for AJ - after he fixes his nose.
Joshua said: “It feels broken and I could not breathe it could have been a massive disaster.
"He's like Holyfield coming under and up. This is championship fighting. I had to keep my cool in there.
“You have to control these situations, if I show any signs of weakness the referee could jump in.
“I want to get my nose cracked back in place first. We have a few months now to heal it up and get a doctor to look at it, we work with some great doctors and then we can get back in training.”
Joshua was bleeding heavily following a headbutt in the second round of his fight in Cardiff.

He reeled back as Takam's forehead crunched into his nose and slow-motion replays showed the bone being brutally smashed.
The heavyweight KO king certainly looked disgruntled as he quickly regained his composure.
And Joshua soon had his revenge when he split Takam's eyebrow open in the following round.
