    After many head shots it's common in football players ... People say it makes them mentally unstable andre waters... Junior seau football players had it

    Agreed. JT should never been allowed to fight again, with his medical history.

    Returning vets from overseas who have had massive concussions also exhibit behavioral symptoms at levels well above normal which has actually been shedding a lot more light on the relationship between severe neurological trauma and behavior.

    Agreed. JT was such a good guy prior to all of his KO losses. And as mentioned, studies have shown that NFL players can have their behavior altered with head injuries.

    Man boxing, as much as I love it, shouldn't be allowed any more. Too brutal. Permanent brain damage is terrible. I'll keep watching, but if it was banned, I would accept it.

    Damn straight he does. I hope for the best, but I don't have a good feeling about where this is going to end up.

    Having him back in the gym, subjecting his body to fight training and taking headshots in sparring again was a bad, bad, bad idea. Everyone knew it.

    I'd be surprised if he did not. the football players who had it (that made the public aware of the condition) were prone to violent emotional outbursts that were uncharacteristic of their previous behavior. Jermain was reported to be a pretty mild mannered, yes sir no sir type earlier in his career. He needs help before he hurts himself or someone else.

    pretty sad to see. i've always been a big fan of his.

    This is likely. He needs to be checked out before he harms someone.
