All the interviews i see with him he seems very scattered in his thoughts and stringing togeather what he wants to say.
I seen a clip of him after the Pacman Hatton fight and it was like he could barely speak english, taking the last word from the question and repeating it over an over in his answer.
It might just be my sheer ignorance but has anyone else noticed this?
I think hes an amazing fighter, but it seems to be taking its toll on him more than others.
That's sad to hear. I'm surprised Oscar is still functioning normally after taking all those beatings.
Manny should definitely retire within two fights if he wants to become an ATG with his senses in tact.
Other guys to watch out for: Katsidis and Juan Diaz. They're both still young guys, and if their recent fights are any indication, they're bound to develop pugilistic dementia.
I'm surprised Gatti functioned as long as he did.
He didn't even sound bad here...but damn...I don't want to hear him years down the line. One of my favorite fighters.

This was mentioned before with this interview:
Sounds like has a sinus problem in this interview
yeah his voice is real nasally. must be sinus problems
i seen that a while ago alright, to be honest i thought he was on somethin giggling inbetween questions like that i just watched
An he just doesnt seem with it, can only get worse he shoudl think about wrappin it up soon
He doesnt sound punk drunk to me here,i think its just how he speaks
disagree a bit
the last full interview I did with him was after Marquez Diaz and he sounded clearer, then Jake did an interview with him and from what he said he sounded fine
in all honestly I think he had been drinking a bit prior (I would say around 4ish after the weigh in) because afterward (Sat) he sounded great
Interesting, thanks for the info. :fing02:
He also sounded fine when he was on ESPN calling out Pacquiao, he's always talked that way. Now James Toney is a guy who's slurring badly.

I have interviewed him and talked to him about once a month since December and he is fine
it's funny but I did an interview right after the guy did his at Hatton Pacquiao (it's in bscene's vid archive) and the impression I got was that he had been drinking a bit not that he was punch drunk. He was a little flush in the face and seemed to be a little more uh happy go lucky
but this has been the only time I have noticed any speech issues. Prior to that he has been well spoken and clear in diction
So are you blaming it on Jin?
He sounds like he has a sinus problem now.
So ask him if he has a deviated spetum or something.

He's not punch drunk, wtf are you on about?
Just because he has to think about what he's going to say next, means he's punch drunk?
I can see youve taken the time to read everyones arguement and then presented your own reasons......
wait a minute...
:tool:
So what's with the nasal sound? I heard before he had a nasal problem when he fought Cotto or right before it, but how true is that?
Didn't hear it from a reliable source, juist a poster mentioned it before, but it kind of made sense the way he was talking?
But he hasn't seem to rid himself of it.
So, sinus problems now...
Deviated septum...maybe?
Or leaning towards something else?
Just compare the video I put up with him talking before Floyd vs. Oscar and compare with the other...
R!Z whuddaup son? Listen i agree sir but it is not as bad as some make it out to be. Like i sad every fighter has some sort of punch drunk sindrome others worse than some....Mosley is Mosley and he will still whip most of them out there even pushing 40.....Lefty
we replied to each other at the same time :lol1:
im chillin man, same ol same ol
what about you?
and yeah, i agree with that. mosley's still a beast even at his age
Every fighter is a little punch drunk but some more then others if you pull inteviews from early inhis carrer his speech isn't much better. Some people just dont speak well in public. I know for a fact because when i was younger I tened to speed up my words when speaking in front of people due to nerves and I sounded like I was sluring. Often my moms would accuse me of drinking as a teen due to it. Some times she was right but most times I was just nervous to speak in front of a crowd....Lefty
what up lefty?
honestly, i dont think he's nervous at all. he was never the most eloquent dude on the block but his speech has deteriorated over time. he looks confused when he's speaking, like he's trying to gather up words and shit in his mind. his voice also has that signature muffled sound that punch drunk fighters have.
