Last night saw the finale episode of “Shaq Vs.,” which sees NBA Superstar Shaquille O’Neal, taking on other top athletes, in their own sports. And according to examiner.com, last night saw him challenge 14-time Gold Medal Olympian Michael Phelps.
Shaquille challenged Phelps in a series of swimming races and whoever got the best out of three, would then be claimed the winner. And if you didn’t actually get to watch the final show last night, it was of course, Michael Phelps that won.
In race 1, Phelps swam 50 yards freestyle, while Shaq only swam 25 yards. Shaq was announced the winner of that race. Then in race 2, Phelps swam the individual 200 IM. But Shaq anchored the freestyle portion of the team 200 IM. Phelps was the winner.
Then finally in race 3, Shaq only needed to swim 50 yards, but Phelps had to swim 75 yards freestyle. And again, it was Phelps that was declared the winner, therefore became the overall winner. Shaq’s penalty was to try synchronized swimming, in a pink swim cap.
