    I just found this video and thought that SSM sounded the same in this one, and it is from 2003. I also think that people change their speech over the years. I guess it's even normal for people who don't get punched in the face for a living.

    His speech is much better in that video, none of the random bumbling and slurring, doesn't have the heavy tongue... Some of the signs are not overly obvious, you have to pay close attention, but he definitely has the beginning signs of mental trauma. Remember, it is DEGENERATIVE, the damage continues to worsen even after the fighter stops taking blows to the head. In 10 or so years, I think he will be sounding terrible...

    Slightly so does Holyfield but Holyfield is pretty lucky because he is slurring only a little bit and it wouldn't have surprised me if he sounded like Toney by now. Both Holyfield and Mosley slur a little bit but it's also that their voices have changed over the years. And Mosley should retire before his slurring gets worse it wisn't that bad yet and he shouldn't try to make it worse

    How can we know if he hasn't taken a beer or two?

    He had a strong woman at home, someone who stood by him and raised his kids

    And he left her for the nastiest piece of skank ass you could imagine

    He's only getting what he deserved, deluded old fool

    Really sad to see this and never thought I ever would. Mosley should have retired long ago, after the Concreto fight to be precise. Sadly a typical prostitute of a wife forces him to keep fighting.

    That was a foolish decision on his behalf to leave the woman who truly cared about him, no doubt. However, do you really want to go as far as saying he deserves to be brain damaged for the rest of his life because of that decision? I don't want to see him wind up in diapers, drooling on himself in 10-15 years...

    The damage was done for Mosley long ago. All the one sided beatings he's taken since have only hastened his inevitable decline.
