Welcome to episode three of diary of a fighter. I've got 38 days left before I

make my world boxing debut at the O2 arena here on Saturday night in London.

And today I want to talk about something that's very important to me and it's

about the city I live in, the city that is my home, and that is London. I love

London. I love everything about the city. I love the culture. I love the people.

I love the diversity. I love the history. I love the fashion. I love the the

business. I love everything about this city that is my home. And about a year

ago I decided that I wasn't very happy with where this city was headed. And I

decided to run to be the next mayor of London. And I spent seven months on the road.

I went over 5,000 miles in my battle bus. I went to every single burrow in London.

I created massive campaigns. I sent letters to people's homes. I put my face

all over billboards because I really wanted to change the course and the

future of this beautiful city that's given me everything. It's given me my

family. It's given me my success, my business. I love everything about the city.

I plan to be buried in this city. My children were born in this city. And I love

London. And the truth is this London is experiencing hard times right now.

There's 9 million people in this city that are struggling. And they're

struggling for one reason because our leadership has failed us. Our leaders

have failed to deliver what they promised. And I'm specifically talking about one

man. And that is the decon, the mayor of London. He's failed all of us. And just

take a look around. And you can see the evidence of that crime is skyrocketing.

Our children are getting stabbed in the streets. Businesses are closing down.
