Charles Barkley And Shaquille O'Neal Hilariously Argued Who's Fatter: "If You Was Shaquille O'Neal, The Plumber, You Would Be Single."

Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal had an epic argument about which one of them is fatter.

Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley were far from the slimmest and fast players in the NBA, even when they played in the league. Both thrived off of their size and were criticized for being out of shape during their legendary careers. But they did let go a little more after retiring, and both are fairly large at this point in their lives. 

Normally, this would barely be a topic for discussion. Except, the two of them seem to think this is an excellent thing to argue about. They had a hilarious exchange on Inside The NBA that went viral. 

Charles Barkley said, "I'm losing weight, everybody knows that." To this, Shaquille O'Neal immediately responded by saying, "Ernie... He been eating Krispy Kreme omelet for breakfast this morning." This drew lots of laughter from the crowd. And Barkley wasn't one to take it lying down, replying, "First of all, there's no such thing... You're not exactly skinny."

Shaquille O'Neal felt he was in better shape though, saying, "I'm skinnier than you." Charles Barkley said, "I bet you weigh more than me right now," O'Neal came back at him claiming, "Yeah but I look better than you." That's when Charles Barkley took it up a notch, saying, "No no, you don't look better than me. If you was just Shaquille O'Neal, the plumber, you'd be single. You wouldn't have all those kids if you was Shaquille O'Neal the plumber."

That was ruthless from Barkley in the end, and it even had Shaquille O'Neal laughing along. The banter between the two is truly amazing, and it's what makes the show so much fun to watch. It will be a shame the day Shaq and Chuck are no longer on the air together.
