David Haye, who is set to make his comeback against Mark De Mori, has also been touted as a possible next opponent for the Watford native.
"I could fight Haye, people want me to fight Fury, but you can't just come into professional boxing, show a little talent and be thrown in the deep end," said Joshua in an interview with Sky Sports.
"I don't need do-or-die type fights yet."
"I need to build myself so that when I get to the top I have been in deep waters, done 12 rounds, been hurt and come back. That is how people become champions."
The most likely next opponent for Joshua is former heavyweight world title challenger Dereck Chisora.
The 31-year-old, who has lost to Fury, Haye and Wladimir Klitschko, is seen as an ideal match-up for Joshua.
When asked about the possibility of facing the Londoner he said: "Why not? I need to be fighting people who are hungry and good enough but who I still have a good capability of beating."
