AT SEVEN FOOT one and 325 pounds, basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal is a pretty sizable guy.
Earlier this summer, Shaq announced that he was hanging up his sneakers at the age of 39, but it seems that the big man isn’t quite finished making headlines yet.
Not content with merely being a four-time NBA champ and winning 15 All-Stars, Shaq has always fancied himself as a bit of a budding MMA talent. He even laid down a very public challenge to Korean kickboxer Choi Hong-man a few years ago.
That fight hasn’t happened yet, but Shaq’s not too bothered. In the meantime, he’s got a pretty good idea of which basketball players he’d most like to take a shot at inside the octagon, as he told HDNet’s Inside MMA.

As a Dub we have had some serious battles over the past 5 years with mayo and I don’t like them but I have huge admiration for them and there players. 50/50 next Saturday really looking forward to it.
It was a very good game, I don’t think the conditions had too much of an effect. Mayo surprised me big time, I sincerely thought they would not be at this stage of the championship after last years heartache but they are and they seem to be getting better with every game. If they had one more forward of the calibre of Moran they’d be very hard to beat. Kerry on the other hand had to rely on their vast experience to counter-act a sub-par performance, are they as bad as they were yesterday or was it just a blip? Anyway, hopefully the replay will be as good a game, look forward as a neutral to another enthralling game.
Interesting. The Kerry full back line looked like a herd of sheep going into a field for the first time. Maybe a billy could help them out instead of Tomas’ buddy.
Agree with some of the analysis but for me Mayo pushed up and hadnt the legs to get back to defend as we will see Tyrone and Dublin will filter back. I thought Moran was outstanding for Kerry. Its 50/50 for the replay but Mayo by one for me so the Dubs can beat them in another Final pg.
@Vinny Hughes: I didn’t know the other semi final was already played!
@Vinny Hughes:
Remember the red HAND OF ULSTER Vinny .your not there to beat anyone yet ,,,!!!!!!!’
