‘What I Do To 50-Year-Olds’: Shaquille O’Neal Gets Mocked By Jake Paul

Shaquille O’Neal looked really peeved on Tuesday after influencer and boxer, Jake Paul, poked fun at the basketball legend for not wanting to fight with him. Paul, originally a social media influencer, has tried his best to get into professional boxing in recent years. Last November, Jake Paul fought 58-year-old Mike Tyson and won.

On Tuesday, Jake Paul and his brother, Logan Paul, appeared on NBA on TNT, which also features Shaquille O’Neal. Shaq looked positively annoyed with the two brothers poking fun at him for dropping the idea of a boxing match.

“You see what I do to 50-year-olds” Jake Paul said to Shaquille O’Neal, in reference to his fight against Mike Tyson last November.

Many fans of Shaq and even other social media users took the basketball legend’s side, and called out the Paul brothers for instigating fights with only retired athletes or those who are much older than themselves. Some called them out for their attention-seeking antics.

Logan Paul and Jake Paul originally created a name for themselves as pranksters, vloggers and social media influencers. Their lives have been peppered with a number of controversies, and the two have been criticized for being racist and generally scammy.

Despite getting jabs from the Paul brothers, Shaquille O’Neal still maintained his cool. The 7-foot-1-inch legend also looked pretty cool in an unconventional combination of a brown blazer, a white shirt and tie, and what seemed to be pajama pants for bottoms.
