Having Lost More Weight Than Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley Shows Strong Dislike Towards His $4.14 Million Mansion for 1 Peculiar Reason

The NBA World can call upon Charles Barkley when it comes to serious matters. That’s not the only thing he is famous for. Like his friend Shaquille O’Neal, the legend was known for his great appetite during his days with the Auburn Tigers. However, recently, there was a stark difference noticed in his shape. Barkley seems to have lost more weight than his co-host. During a recent appearance on a podcast, Chuck revealed some details about his weight loss plan. He also dished out distaste for his homeland.

With the 2023-24 NFL season underway, Sir Charles shared his opinion on his favorite NFL team. While fans also got an insight into some more intriguing details, let’s find out why he hates the place where his entire family lives.

Does Charles Barkley dislike staying in Arizona?

The hosts of Roc and Manuch with Jimmy B welcomed the Phoenix Suns legend on their show. When one of them asked him about his golf training and a game, he shared how he was back in the city just to see his grandchildren. Barkley said, “I am playing great. I just came into town to visit my grandkids It‘s too hot to be here. My daughter moved here so I came in to visit my grandkids.”

Charles continued, “But I am getting the hell out of here. It is too hot to be here. I will be back in probably a month.” 

That’s why he likes to stay away from the mansion during those hot days. Barkley’s $4.14 million mansion sprawls across 8600 squares and is outfitted with every lavish facility imaginable. However, the summers are too hot for Barkley to stay in Arizona.

Despite playing 4 seasons in Phoenix, Chuck doesn’t seem to have taken to the weather in The Grand Canyon State.

During the show, one of the hosts also noticed the difference in his shape.

While one of them complimented him and said, “You look good Chuck,” the other host was curious to know something more.

As he asked, “How much weight did you lose?” Sir Charles quickly responded with “65 pounds.” Let’s not forget that it was the Lakers legend who advised him to get in shape. 

Looks like he has now lost more weight than O’Neal. Notably, Shaq revealed earlier this month that he had lost 50 pounds. Despite already surmounting his total, Charles is not done yet. During the show, he revealed his next goal might be to lose 15 pounds more.

He made progress from 352 lbs to 290 lbs, but his goal is 270. What do you think about Barkley’s goal? Let us know in the comments below.
