Harrison is so close now to feeling reality

Audley Harrison claims he knows me. Audley believes he has mentored me. Yet Audley has no clue about what he's got coming to him tomorrow.

Audley has always been a peculiar and complex individual. He's spent the past three months deluding himself into thinking this fight is a winnable proposition for him and that the phrases 'destiny' and 'Yes I Can' are enough to land him a world heavyweight title.

But now, with hours to go until he meets his doom, Audley can no longer take comfort in slogans.

This fight is real and, at today's weigh-in, Audley will have discovered just how serious I am about destroying not only his world title dream but also his career.

Audley got a taste of this reality at Wednesday's press conference and he didn't like it one bit. Try as he might, ranting Audley made no sense and appeared to be coming apart at the seams.

Meanwhile, I sat back, content to verbally counter-punch a man that is becoming increasingly reckless.

Word is getting back to him that I've never looked better in training and that I am levels above the competition he is used to facing.

When he sees me today, Audley will know exactly what reality looks like. Tomorrow night, in Manchester, Audley will learn exactly what reality feels like.
