VIDEO: Matt Barnes says he'd fight Serge Ibaka; Ibaka suggests venue

If Matt Barnes was a hockey player, he'd be classified as a pest.

One of the newest members of the Memphis Grizzlies, Barnes has a history of rubbing opponents the wrong way, including Oklahoma City Thunder power forward Serge Ibaka.

When ESPN's "SportsNation" asked him about their beef Tuesday, while video of a 2013 tussle between the two rolled, Barnes didn't hold back.

"Me and Serge could fight right now if he was here, I just don't like him," Barnes said. "He's got that (aura) about him that he's the toughest guy on the planet and he's not."

Barnes said he wouldn't start a fight, just defend himself.

"The NBA's going to try to bury me if I swing first," he said.

Ibaka was quick to offer a solution free from the constraints of NBA disciplinarians.
