Unfortunately that is how a great many of my generation and thereafter talk. I don't know who Ryan Garcia is; but saying things like "They can't fuck with me, I'm a God" makes me cringe when I hear it at first.

So you're certainly correct, this all comes off as very abrupt and odd.

However, in another light, it actually lends credibility to his claims to me. I can totally understand if it's something that I can see a little easier and you might miss; again, due to generational differences.

I do think he is communicating as honestly and directly as he knows how, for being his age and with getting bashed in the noggin for a living. I don't want to dismiss him outright simply for his limited ability to recount his experience. Its almost natural to bias ourselves that way and we'd tend to disbelieve those who aren't just some majestic storytellers who have a big vocabulary when they retell events that happened to them.

But does that make sense? Or is it rather a product of our conditioning as children? After all, just because he is swearing and can't give a very detailed picture of his experience - it really has ZERO bearing on whether what he said was true or false. Whereas intelligent and verbose people tend to make better liars and could more easily falsify a supposed accounting of something like this.

I've definitely gone too deep here sorry LOL
