Anthony Joshua must be feeling on Cloud Nine as he enjoys the view from the iconic Burj Al Arab luxury hotel, following in the footsteps of sporting legends Tiger Woods and Roger Federer for a sky-high photoshoot.

While discussions rage on about potential heavyweights to face him, he was in Dubai for promotional work sparring and working out on the helipad near the roof of the famous landmark, 210m above ground.

Joshua -- IBF and WBA Super champion -- posted an Instagram video of his sparring session as he followed in the footsteps of some of the world's most famous stars.

Negotiations with Joseph Parker's promoter Dave Higgins and Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn are continuing, with Higgins moving from their opening 40 percent position to 35 percent of the net profit.

Stars of sport are no stranger to the landmark -- in 2004, Tiger Woods hit golf balls from the heli-pad on top of the hotel, and in 2005 Roger Federer joined fellow legend Andre Agassi for a set of tennis.

In 2011 the setup had moved on with Rory McIlroy hitting off a custom-made bunker and green.
