He was forced to pull out of his British middleweight title defence in October due to an injury - and it seems Chris Eubank Jnr has been making the most of his spare time.

The 27-year-old boxer has spent the last three months in Dubai after injuring his elbow in sparring prior to his fight with Tommy Langford which was scheduled to take place in Cardiff.

And in a picture posted on his Instagram account on Thursday, the middleweight revealed he will return home to the UK this week.

The son of former world middleweight and super-middleweight champion Chris Eubank posed with bikini-clad women in the picture he posted on social media.

He captioned the picture: 'Three months away from home is enough for me. Heading back to the UK tonight. Dubai it's been a pleasure.'

Eubank Jnr has only recently returned to training after claims from his camp that he was injured in sparring with a 14st opponent.

Last month, the boxer tweeted a video of him on a yacht as he took part in a pads session.

The Brit's next move remains unclear following his decision to pull out of the Langford bout

His next move remains unclear following his decision to pull out of the Langford bout, having seen a fight a multi-million pound shot at Gennady Golovkin fall through.

Through a statement, his team also insisted he would be moving away from British-level owing to his 'fighting prowess', with a bizarre explanation that it is in the interests of his prospective opponents not to fight him.

The statement, which referenced Nick Blackwell's recent coma after he fought Eubank, said: 'It has become clear to Chris Eubank Jnr's management over these past few months how much danger the health and lives of these contenders are in, therefore the relinquishing of the British Championship due to injury sustained in a sparring session is perhaps a blessing in disguise.'
