Slap At The OSCARS: Chris Rock’s Younger Brother Challenges Will Smith To A Fight
The Oscars might have come and gone, but the drama between Will Smith and Chris Rock lingers on, taking a new turn as Chris’ younger brother challenges the actor to a fight.
According to TMZ, Kenny is ready to square up with the King Richard actor in a boxing ring fight.
Not minding the size difference and Will being taller with some boxing experience while training for his role as Muhammad Ali, Kenny is confident that he could secure his brother a win.
Kenny has been vocal in his attack against Will for slapping his brother at the Academy Awards and is ready to get physical in return.
Kenny is scheduled to fight on June 11 at the Charles F. Dodge City Center in Pembroke Pines, FL.
Chris, on the other hand, is yet to publicly address the issue, noting that he wouldn’t talk about the ‘slap’ until he gets paid.
The comedian told a live audience Friday that he would not be talking about the Oscars until he was compensated.
“I’m OK, I have a whole show, and I’m not talking about that until I get paid. Life is good. I got my hearing back.”
Will Smith has publicly apologised for the incident twice, resigned from the Oscars and has received a ten-year ban from the award show after he slapped Chris Rock for his G.I. Jane joke targeted at Jada (Will’s wife).
