And memory loss isn't uncommon to people with diabetes. I'm sure the getting hit in the head career he had helped bring it on sooner.

I think Mayweather is telling the truth. His uncle took some heavy punishment late in his boxing career and as often happens the damage is really showing up, big time, as he ages. Mayweather doesn't want to end up that way and that is a lot of the reason he will retire forever after Berto. Roger is messed up. He is just skin and bones and he is punchy. He used to be a hard punching world champion but he stayed in boxing too long and took too many beatings. This is why even a skilled older fighter like Hopkins should retire because the damage often shows up many years later and it comes on with a vengeance. It killed Floyd Patterson and many other fighters who stayed in boxing way too long.

Probably. Don't think Floyd is lying, that's why I said: "but why would anybody lie?"
He looks more like he's 64 or even 70.

I'm not sure what this proves/disproves (I couldn't watch more than 3 minutes). As far as we know, this video could've been filmed at any point in time. I also recall Floyd saying he has good days and bad days.
Jeff also confirms he isn't all there.
I also have to ask, Who the hell makes a prank video 56 mins long?

he probably has good days and bad days. my grandmother was like that before she died. some days she'd hardly recognize me. some days she'd be happiest to see me out of all the people in the room.
roger had a long, tough career. he's very clearly deteriorated. he was in wars. he was a world champion and a puncher.
