Jake Paul Says He’s Suffering Memory Loss, Slurred Speech Less Than 2 Years Into His Boxing Career
Ahead of Jake Paul’s fight against Tyron Woodley, the YouTuber turned boxer is opening up about the symptoms he’s experiencing due to the sport.
Paul revealed that he is suffering from mood swings, memory loss, and slurred speech just less than two years into his boxing career. While speaking with journalist Graham Bensinger, the 24-year-old explained,
“I notice it in conversations with like, with my girlfriend or friends, like, not remembering something that I should be able to remember that happened a couple days ago,” he said. “Sometimes in my speech, where like every hundredth or two hundredth word, I’ll mess up or, like, slur. Which I didn’t do that before,” he added.
Paul claimed he’s had anywhere between 20 and 30 concussions in his lifetime, though “it’s really hard to say” exactly how many but because of that, he did admit to being scared by the number of concussions he’s sustained.
Jake Paul vs. Tyron Woodley part 2 fight card is scheduled to start at 9 p.m. ET on Saturday, Dec. 18.
