NY Post: Shaq Punches Man Who Bumped Into Wife

NY Post: Shaq Punches Man Who Bumped Into Wife
11th September, 2005 - 1:06 pm
NY Post - According to a report in the New York Post, A drunken reveler at a magazine bash at the Loews Hotel was knocked out cold by Miami Heat superstar Shaquille O'Neal after the tipsy fellow bumped into Shaq's wife, Shaunie.

"I just happened to be looking in that direction because I saw this other basketball player — Richard Hamilton from the Detroit Pistons — shaking hands and saying hello to Shaq," partygoer Jean-Paul Bermudez told the Miami New Times.

"A couple seconds later it just looked like Shaq completely snapped. He turned around and punched this other guy right in the face. He totally laid him out with one punch and then he did kind of a running punch when the guy was already on the ground. After that the entire VIP area just collapsed on the guy."

The ruckus caused the house lights to come on and cops to break up the party, according to the paper.

Mon Sep 12, 2005 6:31 am

I'm suprised his face didn't have a gaping hole afterwards.

Mon Sep 12, 2005 7:09 am

Geez. Looks like that guy will be out for a year or so. :?

Mon Sep 12, 2005 8:34 am

I'd be surprised if the guy isnt dead :lol:

Face? What face? Shaq probably knocked the head off that guy :x

if that drunk guy would just apologize immediately at that time, i don't think shaq will still wanna punch him...
so that guy must've had done something bad that pisses shaq..

Mon Sep 12, 2005 1:41 pm

Damn, I wish they went into detail on how that drunk guy "bumped" into his wife.

Mon Sep 12, 2005 1:55 pm

Rip32,
Ask Charles Barkley about that...

Also Brad Miller.. :?

Mon Sep 12, 2005 3:39 pm

shaq whiffed when he swung at brad miller, who btw had his back turned to him (N)

Mon Sep 12, 2005 4:51 pm

Not only did he knock him the fuck out, he punched him again while he was out! Anyone else woulda gotten arrested for that!

Shaq is a superstar in the league..

Shaq is a superstar in the league..


Thanks for pointing that out for people who don't know who Shaquille O'Neal is.......

While Shaq has displayed a bit of a temper in the past, it would seem unnecessarily macho and thuggish to do that to someone who simply bumped into his wife by accident. There has to be more to the story.

Speaking of the Brad Miller incident, I remember having a discussion with DR P in the old forum after it happened, in which I contended that Shaq would have knocked Miller out and was dangerous as long as his fists were flying. P opined that Shaq's brute strength alone wouldn't be enough to fell another man, but perhaps I've finally won one over the good Doctor.

Maybe the guy he punched wore a kobe jersey at the party. :lol:

Tue Sep 13, 2005 7:35 am

boxing analysts said that if shaq connected with that punch, he would have broken his hand/wrist :idea:

Wed Sep 14, 2005 7:43 am

Probably, 'cause it wasn't a normal punch, you know...straight punch to the face/body. It was more of an arm swing...

Shaq was Barkley's bitch during that scuffle! :evil:
Shaq was even brought down by Barkley.
(If memory serves me right)

Just seeing Shaq be brought down liked that by Charles made Shaq look like a pansy compared to Barkley.

Don't believe everything you read in the NY Post. I wouldn't call that rag a newspaper. The only thing it's good for is lining a bird cage.

shaq? whos shaq? :roll:

im sure that guy wouldve deserved it, not just "bumped into her" anyway

Tue Sep 20, 2005 1:23 pm

Shaq is too a thug. he pretends to be all altruistic but it's all about creating a reputation. He tried to assault the guy who "punk'd" him on MTV too. The guy was probably shitfaced, accidentally touched shaq's wife, and decided "I make 20mil a year, I can do what I want"
