NBA - Shaquille "Shaq" O'Neal and "Sir Charles" Barkley Fight (2009) Back in the Day

Ever wanted to see Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal duke it out? Well it happened already..

Okay, since I am in an NBA history kind of mood today, I thought I would post a video of this classic fight from 2009 between "Sir Charles" Barkley and Shaquille (Shaq) O'Neal.  This is before they became fat, funny, and friendly.. 


Shaq is with the Lakers coached by Phil Jackson and Sir Charles is with the Houston Rockets coached by Rudy Tomjanovich.

 Shaq vs. Sir Charles
It’s a real heavyweight fight better than a UFC headliner. Before the flopping, the NBA was a real man’s game. Love the Barkley takedown. The ensuing chaos is also interesting, with Phil Jackson and Rudy T coaching.

Highlights

- Barkley gets fouled by Shaq, throws ball of Shaq's noggin.
- Shaq throws wild left that luckily (for Barkley) doesn't
   land solidly
- Barkley tackles Shaq
- Fight breaks up
- Referees discuss
- Rudy T gets a technical foul
- Barkley & O'Neal ejected


Great classic NBA video.  Volume is a little low so turn it up!  See the video here.
