“Gonna hit him in his fat mouth!” Knicks legend rips ‘CLOWN’ Charles Barkley over retirement from TV

Charles Barkley and Charles Oakley have never liked each other. Neither have even tried to refute those feelings, nor have they even tried to make peace. At every given opportunity, both do not let go of a chance to take shots at the other. One such opportunity fell into the lap of the New York Knicks legend.

It’s safe to say Oakley took full advantage and let his heart out. Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson caught up with former All-Star and had some questions for him. Prime of which was about the Hall of Famer’s retirement announcement from broadcasting. Oakley had many criticisms to point out.

Who gives a fuck about Charles Barkley? He needs to go to the gym and worry about his health. But his mouth is gonna get him in trouble. I mean, he’s a clown, point blank. He looks for attention and the stuff that he says now he would never say back in the day about no player. Someone’s gonna hit him in his fat mouth!

Charles Oakley was clear when he said that he didn’t care what Charles Barkley would do. Back in the day, if he said the things he is saying now, players would have jumped on him. That could be true. However, it should also be considered that after one has retired, one can leverage the sheer fact that they are not bound by team chemistry rules.

On top of that if one is a broadcaster, they are often required to go after many players and executives. Criticizing is as much a part of their job description as it is when praising someone. As of now, the future of Barkley on TV remains unknown as there exists a chance he could return from his retirement.

Charles Barkley could talk more if he is not on television

With Charles Barkley deciding to retire from television broadcasting after next season, it brings up many opportunities. Most of those opportunities will be in the digital space. It is a place where the stringent rules of the FCC will no longer apply to the Hall of Famer.

That means he can say whatever he wants and however he wants. The digital space is not censored or controlled in any way. Therefore, just as it has been evident from the podcasts his colleague and close friend Shaquille O’Neal has been running. One can go over the limit, meaning cursing and NSFW words, direct attacks, maybe even bordering on getting personal are not controlled.

So it could be that the already loud-mouthed round mound of rebound to take his attacks to the next level. Charles Oakley could be one of the recipients of one of those rants. It is possible considering how their beef has developed over the years.
