Hopkins too often mangles what he is trying to say & by the time he gets it out - other things may have happened in a fight, although I'm sure B-Hop has boxing knowledge galore - he's got to get it out fast and understandable IMHO.[/QUOTE]
Ray? Come on man.

Anyway, that's what was meant by the phrase "sounded really off".
He did at times sound that way but it's not necessarily brain damage. BHop hasn't done this for long. RJJ sucked at commentary during his first stint at HBO. He's much better at it now though he won't be for long if he doesn't stop boxing.
