Social media had a field day with a Celebrity Boxing match over the weekend featuring former NBA star Lamar Odom and Backstreet Boy Nick Carter's little brother Aaron. The tale of the tape told the tale. Odom had a hilarious height advantage of about a foot.

Carter, who is trying to shed his teen idol image, is now inked from head to toe. The tattoos didn't seem to intimidate Lamar. Carter looked less than menacing as he tried to strike Odom by standing on his toes. Any hopes of this one being competitive ended pretty quickly. And Twitter was ready with the punchlines. Punch lines. Get it? OK I'm done.

@lj_DBLGDo: "Lamar Odom KO’d Aaron Carter in a boxing match with special referee Chuck Liddell sounds like a bad mad-lib."

@Omowale99949437: "This Lamar Odom Aaron Carter fight is giving me liquor store parking lot vibes."

@Kazeem: "If you think i'm going to waste my money on Lamar Odom vs. Aaron Carter a week after I wasted my money on Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul, just know that you're absolutely correct."

@lTweetStuff: "Just showed Mr B the Aaron Carter V Lamar fight. Told him about all the smack Aaron was talking, betting his car, saying how he’s from the streets when Mr.B says “Sesame Street?”
