Boxers affected and unaffected by Dementia pugilistica

You're an idiot

 

Carl Froch when u listen to him u would never even know he was a boxer

 

Rios was kind of slow before he took beatings.

 

Which is amazing considering they both had well over 100 fights!

 

David Reid has a major depressive disorder and lives mostly in isolation. It could be secondary to boxing but it's hard to prove.

 

Cocaine and booze must be the fountain of youth.

 

Thought he was like that during the Olympics before turning pro.

 

Maybe, but he's barely even been functional for the last 10-15 years.

 

For the dense, this means that you should desist in spreading ill informed rumors that Ali was damaged from boxing.
More than likely, it was the ADL. :yep

 

Both were stereotyped during their careers as brawlers when in fact their defense was top notch. They rarely were hit clean during most of their fights.

Its ironic that the defensive wizard of Chavez' era is the one that ended up with brain damage, though that could be attributed to Pernell Whitaker's brain being fried by drugs.

 

We're never going to know if Pac or Golovkin are affected since they were already full on re****s.

 

Yeah. I remember Chavez' waist movement. It's all in the hips. It's all in the hips.

Has anyone mentioned Vargas?

 

Whitaker always talked like that, cocaine also didn't help.

 

Wilfred Benitez has had terrible issues for many years now.

Ray Mancini is fine, he seemed to take a lot of punishment but is ok these days.
