NBA big man Shaquille O'Neal has posted a video where he talks about his MMA skills and calls out MMA giant Hong Man Choi. The 7-2 Choi made headlines last month after the Jose Canseco fight where he defeated the former MLB slugger in a little over a minute.
A noted prankster, it's hard to tell how serious Shaq is about the call-out. After all, he spends part of the video tackling a cardboard cutout of Chuck Lidell.
One thing that's not a joke is Shaquille O'Neal's love of MMA. During the offseason, he trains at Jonathan Burke's Gracie Gym in Orlando. Shaq MMA videos can be viewed at the6levels.com.
Who knows? Maybe Shaq is serious about an MMA fight with Hong Man Choi. It would be an intriguing matchup. At 7-1, 320-pounds, Shaq might be one of the few people on earth who can match up physically with the 7-2 Korean MMA giant.

First off, HMC is a just a physical freak. Shaq, is both a physical freak and a world class athlete, who has played at the top of level of a sport where only the top 1% of 1% can make a career. HMC could never play any sport at the very top level. It would make an interesting matchup but my money is on the athlete. Not the freakshow.

Shaq is going to have his fairy-ass kicked. I mean, anyone who saw the Detroit Pistons fight a few years back knows basketball players fight like girls anyways. It was like watching a group of retards hump a doorknob. Theyr'e all pussies and basketball is a pussy ass sport. HMC will fuck Shaq up, plain and simple. If you don't realize this, first off, you are wrong. Secondly, you should be destoryed and have your seed wiped from the planet Earth so intelligent humans can take your place and we can continue down nature's path instead of de-evolving with your pathetic genetic code...Fuckhead!
