lol. Shaq Fu was the shit. I loved that game. As for Shaq in the UFC, I'd laugh but considering he's been training for years, I want to see what he's got. It's cool he's an unlock-able character in the game.

If anything it would be a one shot deal to make the most money as possible, but if Shaq is taking this seriously I don't think it would end too well.

As a 1 shot thing I think it could be interesting, but I highly doubt that he will seriously consider a career in MMA. I mean it isn't like he is young and his body I am assuming isn't in the best shape.

edit- I really want to unlock Shaq in the new game lol.

Doubt it will be in the UFC. They have always put up that they don't do freakshows. Strikeforce might take them though

I would like to see him on the ultimate fighter. I doubt he would win but it would be interesting imo.

Shaq is getting too old for basketball let alone trying something else. His physical shape is diminishing too. I don't think anyone gives a shit about him in the NBA let alone a possible career in MMA. Sure it will peak people's interest but when it's all said and done people are going to be like "This is a joke right?"

As lame as it would be and as old and how ragged his body is, Shaq just once in the UFC would undoubtedly make more bank for the UFC than anything they have ever done. And that's not a joke, Shaq is a bigger celebrity and sports persona than all of their fighters combined.

^ That is honestly why if you think about it, him doing a one and done deal with the UFC whenever his NBA career is over. Shaq is like Enzo said one of the biggest names in not only sports but entertainment as well, to the non-MMA fan they could probobly only name Tito, Chuck and maybe Lesnar and GSP. Shaq if fighting on a UFC card would draw a bigger buyrate than anything they could cook up even with the biggest MMA names.

I actually think Batista would be a good fit in UFC if he didn't get hurt all the fucking time.

Shaq, on the other hand, needs to stop this idea right now.

Shaq is garbage, He's slow. He would get his shit ran.

Batista would be good but I don't like wrestlers turned MMA or MMA turned wrestlers. Make up your fucking mind. ie. Ken Shamrock.
