    Brain Damage

    Does anybody know if boxing causes brain damage? I have heard rumors that taking punches to the head can be bad for the brain.

      Or Jim Lampley, even though he hasn't taken any shots, he is brain damaged.

      Look at Evander, Once upon a time you could understand him, now he sounds like he has a bucket of water in his mouth. Plenty of fighters have suffered the "Punch Drunk" syndrome.

            What about it causing alzheimers??? I know of a few former boxers here in Minnesota who have died from it.

                  Does it creep you out anymore to know that the avatar is actually him, at first I thought it was the little neighbor kid across my street and I was going to hunt down that sicko and kick his ass but then I got some info from a reliable/trusted source that said the avatar is the1god himself, I have calmed down since.
