Fans loved the hilarious interaction between two unlikely collaborators in Shaquille O’Neal and Hasbulla Magomedov.
Shaquille O’Neal and Hasbulla’s “beef” culminated to a climax when the pint-sized influencer knocked Shaq out on a yacht in Australia in a video that has since gone viral on social media.
It all started when Hasbulla challenged Shaq to a fist fight upon learning that they will both be visiting Australia, and the hype about the tweet led to a collaboration in order to amuse the fans.
The former NBA superstar who spent a 19 year long career while turning out for Orlando Magic, Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns, Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics posted the video of the interaction on his official Twitter account, which went viral within no time.
The pair were on a yacht together in what it rumoured to be Australia, and the mischievous Hasbulla did what he is famous for doing.
Gesturing at the cameraman to remain silent, Hasbulla crept up on Shaq, poked him on the shoulder to get his attention and then greeted the big man with a punch on the face when he turned around – much to the amusement of the fans.
Being the sport that Shaq is known to be, he played along and acted like he was taken aback before responding with a thumbs up after Hasbulla put up a thumb of truce.
Shaq posted the video of the interaction on his Twitter, accompanied by the caption “@HasbullaNFT almost knocked me out.”
Fans of both the ex-NBA superstar and the Russian social media influencer loved the interaction as the video went viral in no time.
