Terry Norris isn't in great shape, real sad to see when top fighters have had a few knocks.

Holy is fine. He always had that bit of a stammer. Seen many of his interviews on YouTube. Seems ok to me. Bowe went down quickly towards the end of his career. I'm still amazed at George Chuvalo considering the type of fighter he was.

Norris and meldrick.

Chacon sounded terrible before he died. I’d say Jermain Taylor will only end up sounding worse.

Toney doesn’t sound great sometimes. Particularly when you compare how he used to sound.

Jermaine Taylor, not sure, he looked pretty shot in his last fights.

Always thought he must have killed himself to make 160.

Amir Khan was never the sharpest knife in the drawer but he's started to sound even more of a cabbage recently for a relatively young man....

I don't agree with us talking about fighters in this way. It's one thing to say someone has had some damage etc, but throwing a few insults around take the pisss isn't right

He's dangerous man. I'll be shocked if he doesn't do a long stretch.

Yeah, his speech is virtually incomprehensible. Far too many gym wars and a very long career.

Kevin Johnson is very slurry. Big Pricey is gonna end up the same way if he keeps going.

One of the old Vitali victims ended up in a state where he pretty much only knew one sentence.

Sounded something like "Lets go champ" :twisted:

Closer to home, Gomez didn't sound too great on the Sky special a couple of years ago.

I googled Bobby Chacon's last interview after reading the above, was quite shocking.

I think that’s lifestyle as much as boxing.
