Then he was hungover. (Arguably worse than being drunk)
He got loaded on the Soma Wine fumes the night before on top of the diet building. The military exploded capsules full of Soma Wine over his head, and he drunk off the fumes and was Ko'd. The next morning, the moment he awakens, he's dumbo dropped onto Godzilla to fight. So yeah he was impaired either way you look at it.

If you got shitfaced on a Friday night until you passed out. Then the very next morning while severely hungover you had to fight someone, I'd like to see how well you would do. You would be at a disadvantage, even if you were a good fighter.

The Catch of the Day!
