In the interview, the 1993 NBA MVP was asked various questions regarding his competitors in golf in recent times. He was asked about who trash talks the most. “Nobody talks more trash than Michael Jordan,” said Chuck.
Charles adds that Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson too have plenty to say while competing. “I got a lot of friends who talk a lot of trash on the golf course,” said Barkley.
“I think the first time I met Tiger, it was intimidating being around him”, he replied. Charles Barkley also labeled his long-time rival and friend Michael Jordan as intimidating. He said, “I’ll also say Michael.”
Both Woods and Jordan are known to be the greatest in their respective sports. Tiger has 82 professional wins to his name which also include 15 Major titles, while Michael Jordan has six NBA titles.
The two got close after Woods signed a deal with Nike. Woods and Jordan used to hang out together at public events and sports tournaments as well. But there hasn’t been news of the two seeing each other in a long time.
