Theophane speech at times is really bad, definite neurological problem there, needs to retire after the Mayweather/Matchroom tournament.

So you think he already has brain injury issues but think he should have some more fights before retiring?

I just think he can't quite decide whether he is from London or Las Vegas. One minute he's talking like he's bringing it to you from London Blud then he's half Yankee.

I've never heard him quite that bad but he has always spoken a bit like that. I always thought he had some kind of speech issue, not a stutter but something similar.

No I think he should retire now, but he's not going to do that with the tournament coming up. Maybe if he loses in that he'll think about retiring, but I doubt it whilst he's rolling with the money team.

Sounds to me like he is just stuck between accents because of the travel, different result but in the same way that Lennox Lewis accent would be difficult to place for a stranger.

Its nothing more than a slight speech impediment/stammer where he struggles with certain sounds like O & N. I actually think He's overcomming it and his speech is getting better.
