Stephen Jackson built a new career for himself after he retired from the NBA as a member of the media. Jackson played at a high level for many seasons and on some really good teams too, but these days he’s known more for his All The Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes. 

With the two former players often having conversations while being a little high, many would see Stephen Jackson as a man of peace. And for the most part, that’s what he’s become. But Jackson’s always had a meaner side to him, he was involved in the Malice at The Palace after all. He has never been one to back down from a fight, and that became evident again when he was recently attending a boxing event.

“That’s my wife right here! Y’all better get back! These n***as finna move. They ain’t sitting here, they better sit down. Sit down, that’s my wife!”

A scuffle ensued courtside at the boxing event between Gervonta Davis and Hector Luis Garcia after rapper Meek Mill and boxer Gary Russell Jr. almost got into a fight. The match itself was stopped, and the crowd was all riled up, leading to this moment involving Jackson. And it’s safe to say that fans had quite a bit to say about it. 


NBA Fans Reacted To A Video Of Stephen Jackson Defending His Wife

Even the most patient person in the world would get angry if their loved ones were being bothered, so Jackson’s irritation is easy to understand. And while some reactors tried to troll him, most knew that the fans around him didn’t want any piece of Jackson in that situation. 

“That Houston boy do play! Y’all better stop sleeping on him.”

“Y’all must not know this man. Give everyone a 2 piece combo.”

“This dude enjoyed hitting a fan, he’d do this any day.”

“Ayo, that’s the crowd-fighting expert, everyone gotta run.”

“There’s a level of success you get to, you don’t need to be yelling and screaming anymore.”

“Tuck the chain and get busy, you just like me.”

“This how i’m coming everytime bout mine on my mama son.”

“Stak is that dude, no one want that smoke.”

“My man needs to find some weed quick.”

“I respect it, he did what he had to do.”

“Idk why, this video got me buggin.”

For someone like Stephen Jackson, who was involved with the Malice at The Palace, is aware of how fast these situations can escalate. So for him to get so riled up, it must have gotten pretty bad. And while some fans may want to see punches thrown, most will be glad that this is all that occurred during the rush and no one was hurt.
