He always sounds like he's chocking himself when he talks. Since Tyson ballooned, his voice gone.

Maybe he just has a cold. Helenius' voice was very hoarse for a long time following a throat injury. I think he got punched in his throat while sparring. He's all better now.

I heard somewhere he took a shot to the throat in sparring a while back, and it damaged his vocal chords.

I understand that PEDS can play havoc on the vocal chords.

Robert Helenius's voice got all fucked-up after getting punched in the vocal chords in sparring.
