Earlier this year, we “celebrated” the 15th anniversary of the infamous fight that took place between Chris Childs and Kobe Bryant back in April 2000 by putting together a frame-by-frame recap of it.

Last week, the former Knick sat down with Knicks Blog Radio to discuss, amongst other things, his fight with Kobe. Childs talked about what led to punches being thrown and also discussed how he probably could have injured Kobe if he really wanted to. Here’s a transcript of Childs’ comments, courtesy of the New York Post:
So one of the most memorable NBA fights of all time could have been even worse? Damn, Kobe.
