He is over 7 feet tall, over 320 lbs. He had issues running back and forth on the b ball court at times. especially as he got older. Shaq is only 40 which is still young enough to do just about everything. Jose Canseco has said to want to fight him. Who would win this fight and how dangerous is a guy like Shaq in the ring?

Shaq has been training mma and bjj since the late 90's. I believe he has a purple belt in Bjj.

Canseco is an idiot and has NO chance! Shaq will murder him.

That Barkley Shaq fight was funny. Shaq could have been in trouble if Barkley really wanted to pound him on the ground in that moment. That would have been the end of their careers if they went that nuts though. They were not bat stupid mad at each other.

I remember that well. In the interview about it, they asked Barkley about going after a guy that size, and he said something like, "My momma wouldn't be proud of me if I let him get away with that."

Canseco is broke and will do anything to get attention that might up the tiny paydays he is getting from celebrity boxing bouts.

So, he mentions Shaq just for publicity.

Shaq is nowhere near 320lbs, that was what he weighed at age 20.
He's probably a few big meals away from 400lbs.

Shaq is remarkably quick and agile for his size, even now at age 40. I remember seeing 20yo Shaq BREAK DANCE with the spins etc.
He's bust Conseco up pretty badly imo.

Frankly I think you'd need to get someone with extensive martial training to handle Shaq....not some old baseball player and part-time fighting hack.

It would be really interesting to see a highly skilled but much smaller MMA guy vs. Shaq, just to see it play out. Like what would someone like Jim Miller do with him? I'd pay to see that.
