The hype of the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight seems to have leaked over to other athletes.
Gronkowski stood alongside Shaq on the live Netflix broadcast to share his ideas.
“Me and Gronk gonna put together NBA vs NFL,” Shaq said.
“Coming soon. I’m talking boxing, fighting, football basketball.”
“Are we talking current players vs retired players or active players vs active players,” Gronk asked.
“Either or, but we’re gonna do it,” Shaq said.
Shaq said that he thought of the idea because Gronk challenged him to a fight.
“I just thought of it because me and Gronk are good friends and he challenged me to a fight,” Shaq said.
“I’m not really your friend I’m ready to fight your ass,” Gronk replied.
“Can we be the first main event? We’ll be the first ones up.”
Fans seemed excited by the idea, and shared their thoughts about a potential NFL vs NBA fight.
“Not a bad idea. NBA vs nfl,” one fan said.
“They need a reality show lol,” another fan said.
“Shaq is just such an American treasure,” a third fan said.
