    Will Smith is 6’2" and played Muhammed Ali. I can think of a lot of people I’d rather have punch me than get slapped by Will Smith.

      I saw the slap. There wasn’t much in it. Rock wasn’t going to end up with a detached retina or a brain bruise from that bit of patty-cake. All it did was reinforce the view that Smith’s a smug, egocentric lightweight who can’t take a joke. Also, he’s a limited actor, and his “musical” career consisted of some vaguely rap-shaped throwaway pop dreck that most people would be ashamed to put their name to. And his ears are too small.
