Does James DeGale sound punch-drunk?

Post by Enlightened-One »

This isn’t intended to be a comedic or a derogatory thread, but I’ve watched a couple of very recent James DeGale interviews and he seems to be slurring his words slightly.

I’m not suggesting that he’s a shot fighter or anything like that, because I sincerely hope that he continues to have a successful career, but I do wonder if his health is beginning to suffer the consequences of the wars that he’s been involved in or if I’m simply imagining things?

The latest video, published earlier on today on the iFL TV YouTube channel, illustrates his slurring and ever-so-slight stuttering. His general speech now sounds inarticulate, whereas I used to think that he was very effective at conveying his thoughts.

Thoughts? :o

Haha the buture's fright

I still think that was a deliberate PR ploy to try and go viral with the memes and Tshirts and whatnot

Didn't really work but a noble effort
