Charles Barkley has threatened to punch a fan after being trolled to his face over his lack of NBA rings in street footage that went viral over the weekend.

'Chuck,' 64, was walking downtown somewhere, possibly Dallas ahead of Game 3 of the NBA Finals, when the TikToker - a Mavericks fan - noticed him and called him out.

Barkley - a former forward - played for the Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns, and Houston Rockets from 1984 to 2000, winning the MVP award in 1993.

'The guy with no championship rings,' the fan said while pointing at Barkley. 'He sucked at basketball. Zero rings.'

'Now what if I just punched him in the face,' the 11-time NBA All-Star told his security guard besides him, while the fan was laughing at his face and repeating 'zero rings.'

TNT 'loses NBA rights' in HUGE blow for 'Inside the NBA' stars Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal

Barkley then let the fan know: 'He would've felt bad if I would've punched him in the face,' referring to his bodyguard.

'You're Jordan's son,' the fan replied, as he continued his taunt. 'Imagine not winning an NBA championship.'

The Mavs fan then turned around to let a random person who observed his exchange with Barkley know: 'It was the guy has no championship rings that just won...'

'Charles Barkley?' the stranger asked.

'Yeah, he has no rings,' the TikToker said.

Barkley's threat comes amid uncertainty around the future of 'Inside the NBA on TNT' on US TV

Last week, it was revealed that Barkley could go 'wherever he wants' next if TNT loses its exclusive NBA rights package beyond the 2024-25 season with ESPN, Amazon and NBA all interested in recruiting the player-turned-basketball-analyst.

In May, Barkley gave an 'unapproved' interview to the New York Times amid ongoing tensions at TNT over the future of 'Inside the NBA,' which 'Chuck' stars in along with host Ernie Johnson and former pros, Kenny 'The Jet' Smith and Shaquille O'Neal.

Barkley also paid tribute to Bill Walton in the wake of the two-time NBA champion's death on May 27.

'The world is not as good of a place [as] it was yesterday. The world was better for having Bill Walton in it... we lost a legitimate person,' he said.
