Slater Young is not 24 years old. I have read an article in the past saying he’s 26. Why these people have to change their age? I remember Jericho Rosales saying he’s 26 when he’s already 31 during the interview. Funny.
He really is 24. Evidently that article was misleading.
I think the other commenter refers to the magazine article that says Slater is 26. Maybe this link will help http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MbGNPO80w1Y/Tq4cJQjZN0I/AAAAAAAASrY/S0pFX1It-LQ/s1600/slater%2Byoung7.jpg
