This is just amazing. Have a listen to what Tito has to say about Matt Hamill. Words can't describe how unbelievable it is.

No worries of fighter bashing here.
If you sound stupid then you need to be called on it and he sounds like an idiot.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.

Uh, what did he say that was wrong?
Deaf people do have less of a sense of equilibrium than those that can hear.
When you get dizzied and everything goes into whack, you use your senses to get your wits about you. The main one beside vision is hearing. Hearing sets you straight. Matt doesn’t have that, so he can’t recover as fast as someone else can.
Try this. Do the “spin on a baseball bat” trick. Then do it while blindfolded. Then do it while your ears are stuffed. You’ll see a BIG difference.
Called it before the fight:
Cardio - The BIG question. Does Shane Carwin have cardio? He's never gone past the first round. His muscle mass is astounding and we all know that with all that muscle comes a need for the heart to pump fresh oxygenated blood to keep them from building lactic acid. He does train up in the thin air of Colorado, so that can't do anything but help. However, we have seen him pretty winded after a 1st round fight. Adrenaline dump or cardio problems? We won't find out the answer to that until someone takes him out of the first round.

So deaf people have soft heads?
And you don’t have to hit them hard to knock them out? Seriously?

The soft head part, I have no idea where he got that from.
The part about deaf people and equilibrium, he did a pisspoor job of saying what he was trying to say. It’s not that deaf people have NO equilibrium, it’s that when their equilibrium is jarred, they have a harder time recovering back to normal due to lack of hearing.
That said, Hamill has been fighting and training for years so that might not be as big a factor as with your average deaf person. But we have seen Hamill get his head scrambled by weak shots (going back to when he fought Mike Nichols or the high kick Grove gave him that messed him up for days).
