President Obama had "Luther" ... and now Manny Pacquiao has an anger translator of his own to tell us how he REALLY feels about Adrien Broner -- and it's hilarious!!!
Pacquiao is gearing up to fight Broner on January 19 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas -- and if you know Manny, you know he ain't exactly the greatest trash talker in the world.
So, he brought in his good friend, Michael Blackson, on Thursday to tell us what he REALLY wants to say about his opponent ... and yeah, there's A LOT of cussing.
For example, when we asked Manny how he felt about Broner predicting a knockout, MP politely told us, "That's easy to say but hard to do."
Okay ... but what he REALLY meant to say ... "We're gonna fuck him up! Punch him in his eye! Kick him in his nuts! That short bitch is going down!!!"
There's a lot more, it's really funny ... and obviously, salute to "Key & Peele."
Oh, one more thing -- what is Manny eating these days to gear up for the fight? Fish eyes. Seriously. He loves 'em.

Floyd Mayweather Flaunts 41 Expensive Watches ... 'This One Cost $18 Mil'
1/10/2019 5:56 AM PTPlay video content

Floyd Mayweather has one helluva watch collection -- 41 time pieces in total -- including a crown jewel, the $18 million "One and Only."
Seems Floyd was just bored on Wednesday and felt like stuntin' on all of us normies -- so he broke out the briefcases with his super expensive man jewelry ... and showed it all off.
"When I go on pay-cation for 30 days," Floyd said ... "I take 30 watches with me."
"But, you know what, if we add 10 more days, I take 10 more watches," he explained while opening a 2nd case.
And, then the big daddy ...
"But then, I say 'f*ck it. If I wanna bring out the one and only, then I'll take out the watch that costs $18 million."
The watch is technically called "The Billionaire Watch" -- made by Jacob & Co. back in 2015, it features 239 emerald-cut baguette diamond stones, each weighing up to 3 carats.
Floyd says he bought the watch last summer from a Japanese jeweler named Tadashi Fukushima -- and claimed he'd never buy any jewelry from anyone else ever again.
But, if he sees the right watch somewhere else ...
Floyd has made a ton of money during his pro boxing career -- $300 mil to fight Pacquiao, $300 mil to fight McGregor ... and $9 mil to fight Tenshin Nasukawa.
So yeah, he should be able to afford a few watches.

Tito Ortiz Confirms Fight with Chael Sonnen ... 'I'm Gonna Smash Him'
1/9/2019 7:36 AM PTPlay video content

Tito Ortiz says he's IN for a rematch with Chael Sonnen -- telling TMZ Sports, "I'm gonna pummel him for 3 rounds."
The two have been going back and forth on social media -- but Tuesday night in L.A., 43-year-old Ortiz told us the fight is definitely gonna happen ... "most likely with Bellator, Scott Coker will make the deal."
It's interesting considering Tito just fought Chuck Liddell under the Golden Boy MMA banner -- and said partnering with Oscar De La Hoya would be the way to go in the future.
But, it seems those plans are out the window ... and he's reuniting with Bellator.
FYI, Tito fought Chael back in Jan. 2017 at Bellator 170 -- and won by rear naked choke in the 1st round.
This time, Tito says he's got more violent plans for his 41-year-old nemesis.
"I'm gonna smash Chael," Ortiz said ... "I'm not gonna choke him. I'm not gonna submit him. I'm gonna smash him."
Ortiz says he'd like the fight to go down at Madison Square Garden in New York -- where legends like Muhammad Ali have fought in the past.
Stay tuned ...

Floyd Mayweather Face Off With Manny Pacquiao ... at Clippers Game
1/9/2019 6:53 AM PTPlay video content

This is how it started last time ...
Floyd Mayweather came face-to-face with Manny Pacquiao at an NBA game on Tuesday -- begging the question ... are they finally going to rematch?!
Manny was a VIP guest during "Filipino Heritage Night" at the L.A. Clippers game at Staples Center ... where Floyd happened to be sitting in his usual courtside seats.
By the way, Floyd chartered his private jet from Vegas to L.A. specifically for the Clippers game -- and then flew back immediately after it ended.
Play video content
Seems the point of the trip was less about taking in the game and more about that photo op with Manny to hype a potential rematch ... a rematch they've been talking about for months.
Remember, back in January 2015, Floyd and Manny had a similar face-off at the Miami Heat game -- where they exchanged numbers and really kicked the negotiations into high gear.
They ultimately fought in May 2015 ... with Floyd getting the dub in a pretty underwhelming 12-round snoozefest.
Manny has a big fight coming up against Adrien Broner on Jan. 19 -- but he's previously told us he wants Floyd after he gets through AB.
As for Floyd, he just pummeled Tenshin Nasukawa in a bizarre New Year's Eve exhibition match in Japan ... and while many question if Tenshin took a dive, Floyd looked pretty good.
As for the game ... Clips beat the Charlotte Hornets 128-109.

Boxing Star Ryan Garcia Calls Out Selena Gomez ... 'Lemme Take You Out'

Ryan Garcia is one of the fastest rising stars in boxing ... with a 17-0 record and a huge contract with Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions.
But, what he REALLY wants ... is a date with Selena Gomez!!
"She's single so lemme shoot my shot," the 20-year-old told us ... "Lemme take you out!"
Garcia even gave a pitch to Gomez ... saying, "I would protect you, you know!?"
He's right ... dude's got a lethal left hook and has been obliterating opponents since he turned pro at 17 years old back in 2016.
Since then, Garcia has developed a huge following -- with 1.7 million followers on Instagram! He's also starring in a new series "On the Ropes" produced by the Brat digital studio. Dude's killing it right now.
Garcia tells TMZ Sports he's working on closing a deal for his next fight in March -- but he's also seriously interested in fighting Tenshin Nasukawa ... the guy who got beat up by Floyd Mayweather.
"He should fight me," Garcia says ... while making his case for why the two 20-year-olds would actually be an entertaining matchup.
Long story short ... they're more equally matched in size and experience -- but Garcia says the outcome will be the same ... Tenshin gets KO'd.

Tenshin Nasukawa Fires Back at Conor McGregor Here Are My Demands ...
1/7/2019 6:31 AM PT


7:43 AM PT -- Tenshin just responded to Conor ... and laid out his terms for a fight with the UFC star.
"Dear Mr. McGregor, Thank you very much for remembering my name. I’m honored that you would even consider fighting me," Tenshin said.
So, what kind of a fight does Tenshin want?
Weight -- 58 kg (128 lbs).
Fight Rules -- kickboxing rules.
Tenshin says these are the demands that "would probably get us in the ring sometime in the near future."
The problem ... Conor ain't 128 pounds. He weighed in at 155 lbs to fight Khabib back in October and hasn't fought at 145 since Dec. 2015.

$9 million for 2 minutes of work??
Conor McGregor wants some of that action -- which is why he's calling out Tenshin Nasukawa ... the guy who got his ass kicked by Floyd Mayweather on New Year's Eve.
"I wish to go to Tokyo to face Tenshin Nasukawa in a Mixed Martial Arts exhibition bout," McGregor said in a note to the UFC and his agents at Paradigm Sports Management.
"Before this summer. Please arrange this, this instant. Yours sincerely, The champ champ."
The Tenshin vs. Floyd fight was supposed to be a 3 round exhibition -- but Tenshin's corner threw in the towel with 41 seconds left in the 1ST ROUND after Floyd knocked him down multiple times.
Some people think the fight was fixed and Tenshin took a dive ... but Conor doesn't seem to care -- all he sees is EASY MONEY!
Remember, McGregor made $100 million to box Floyd -- but LOST when the fight was stopped in the 10th round.
McGregor then made around $50 mil to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov ... but tapped out in the 4th after getting mauled by the Dagestani.
So, a couple mil to beat up on a tomato can? Nice work if you can get it!

Adrien Broner 2 Sex Crime Cases ... On Same Day
1/6/2019 12:30 AM PT

Boxing star Adrien Broner has a busy Monday -- he's got dates in TWO courtrooms in TWO states to face TWO separate allegations of sexual misconduct, TMZ Sports has learned.
... and it's all going down just TWO weeks before his mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao.
Here's the deal ... Broner was arrested back in February in Atlanta for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman at a local shopping mall. Cops say he groped her against her will.
Just 4 months later, Broner was arrested again in Cleveland for allegedly throwing himself on top of a woman at a nightclub and forcing her to kiss him. He's facing multiple felony counts including gross sexual imposition and abduction.
As fate would have it ... both cases have been scheduled for January 7 -- and since he can't be in two places at once, he's gotta decide which hearing he wants to attend.
We've learned Broner is planning on sending a lawyer in his place to Ohio -- where he's not required to attend the hearing in person.
Does that mean he'll be in Atlanta instead? Broner has a habit of blowing off court cases ... so, no one really knows where he'll be.
Adrien is facing 5 separate charges for the two incidents ... and if he's convicted on all counts -- he could go to jail for NINE years.
The craziest part of the story -- Broner also has a court date in Florida on Jan. 23 stemming from his arrest for failure to appear in court earlier this month for traffic violations.
In between it all ... Broner's massive fight with Pacquiao is set for Jan. 19 in Las Vegas.

Logan Paul KSI 'Broke Contract' for Rematch ... Let's Fight Already!
1/3/2019 6:24 AM PTPlay video content

Logan Paul says KSI is pulling some shady crap when it comes to their rematch -- saying the YouTube star is breaking their contract by refusing to fight in February.
Remember, the two squared off back in August but fought to a draw in a crazy 6-round slugfest at Manchester Arena in the U.K.
The two had signed a contract requiring a rematch -- but the two sides can't seem to agree on a date.
On Wednesday, KSI posted a video pointing the finger at Logan's camp -- saying Team Paul was supposed to take the lead with planning since it's supposed to happen in the U.S. ... but he's failing.
KSI claims Logan wants the fight to go down on the West Coast -- but says it doesn't make sense because time zone issues would make it difficult for U.K. fans to watch the fight live.
KSI is demanding an East Coast location and says he wants the fight pushed to November so they can properly train and promote the event.
But, when we saw Logan at Warwick in Hollywood on Wednesday night ... he told a different story.
"He already broke the contract. It was supposed to happen in February. He already broke that sh*t."
Logan continued ... "He needs time to prepare. I'm okay. I tried to do it in December but he wouldn't do it."
Both guys clearly want to fight -- but they need to figure out a date and venue stat.

Floyd Mayweather beat the hell outta Tenshin Nasukawa this week ... and he's already flaunting his earnings from the fight -- showing off stacks of Yen in his Rolls-Royce!!!
Floyd annihilated Tenshin in an exhibition boxing match in Japan on Monday -- with the scrap lasting just two minutes ... and Mayweather says he pocketed $9 MILLION from the bout.
So, yeah ... that's around a cool $68,000 per second!!!!!!!!
Didn't take long for TBE to show off the winnings ... 'cause in vids he posted Tuesday -- he bragged about his dope cars and then flashed the Yen he pocketed from the fight.
"Y'all guys tell me, should I take this truck out today? My G-Wagen? My Tonka toy? Or should I take my Rolls-Royce truck out today. Now, y'all gotta decide. Let me know."
The bills were 10,000 banknotes ... and Floyd had AT LEAST 14 stacks laid out on his driver's seat and center console.
Some have called the whole fight a farce ... dude was way bigger than the Rizin superstar -- and many have wondered if it was all fixed from the beginning.
But ... doesn't seem Floyd cares -- 'CAUSE DUDE GOT PAID!!!

Floyd Mayweather's fight with Tenshin Nasukawa is a complete joke and is nothing but a money grab ... so says Bob Arum, who RIPPED Floyd for even taking the fight.
"It is a non-event. It is not a sporting event," Bob tells TMZ Sports.
Arum was out at Craig's this week when he made sure to stop for our photog, to crap all over Mayweather's highly-anticipated New Year's Eve exhibition in Japan.
"That's pretty much a joke, isn't it? I think so. I think so. Because, it's not a real fight ... the people who are watching that nonsense are pretty well jerks."
In fact ... Bob tells us he thinks the ONLY reason the tilt is going down is 'cause Mayweather straight-up NEEDS the cash!!
"He needs money for Christmas and the New Year, and this is a good way for him to make some money. God knows Floyd always needs money!"
We also asked Bob about the Oscar De La Hoya-Dana White feud ... and he tells us why it's "stupid" -- and, then says, even at 87 years old he could kick the crap outta Dana!!!

Andrew Berto says Tenshin Nasukawa has a huge chance ... the chance to ruin Floyd Mayweather's legacy FOREVER, all he's gotta do is go in there and beat Floyd.
Mayweather is 50-0 and has beaten everyone from Canelo Alvarez to Oscar De La Hoya ... but, according to Berto, that all goes out the window if he loses his December 31 exhibition match with Tenshin.
"It would tarnish it for sure. You cant be 50-0 fighting some of the best fighters in the world then get knocked out by some kid."
Berto faced off against Mayweather back in 2015, and says the chances that Tenshin gets the upset in Tokyo are SLIM ... but sees one strategy he can use to pull off the upset.
"Go in there and try to knock his head off, and if you throw a kick ... f**k it."
It's going down in a couple days, 3 3-minute rounds for an eight figure payday, a lot of fun, and maybe Floyd's reputation ... could it happen?
Stranger things have.

12/30/2018 12:05 AM PTPlay video content

They were teammates and roommates ... but now MMA rising star Kayla Harrison says she's gunning to take Ronda Rousey's place as the greatest female fighter of all time.
"Ronda always used to call us 'Frenemies,'" Harrison tells TMZ Sports ... "I've always kinda had a chip on my shoulder. Like, anything Ronda could do, I could do better."
"She's always sorta been my motivation behind the scenes."
Kayla trained with Ronda every day for 7 years back when they were coming up in the judo world together ... but says they're very different people.
Harrison won 2 gold medals in her Olympic judo career -- one in 2012 and another in 2016. Now, the 28-year-old is focused on destroying people in MMA.
"I want to be the best fighter in the world. I want to go down in history as one of the most dominant female combat athletes there ever was."
Kayla is 2-0 as a pro MMA fighter, and takes on Moriel Charneski at the PFL 2018 World Championship on New Year's Eve at Madison Square Garden.
As for her next opponent, Kayla's manager Ali Abdelaziz says he's got his sights set on Cris Cyborg.

Roy Jones Jr. says a new deal he inked with UFC to stream his boxing events won't just benefit his own sport -- it'll elevate UFC as well ... and it might make a potential fight between himself and Anderson Silva that much more likely to happen.
We got the 6-time boxing champ at LAX Friday on the heels of a joint announcement Roy and Dana White rolled out just hours earlier -- UFC Fight Pass will stream up to 72 pro boxing events put on by Roy Jones Jr.'s Boxing Promotions company ... for 3 years!
Roy certainly seems jazzed about the news, telling us it's a partnership that he and his pal, Dana, have been circling for a while ... but only took about a month or so to hammer out on paper once everything was in place. He says it's a win-win for both sports.

Now for the juicy part ... we ask if he still thinks he'll get in the ring one last time to fight Spider himself, as he'd previously expressed interest in doing this past January.

Even the President of the United States has issues with his cable provider ...
Donald Trump has a bone to pick with DirecTV -- after he ordered a UFC fight back in July ... but didn't get to see how it ended.
According to Dana White, Trump REALLY wanted to see UFC 226 -- Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe Miocic -- and ponied up the $65 to order the pay-per-view on DirecTV.
But, Dana says some "Presidential stuff" went down during the July 7 event, and Trump had to step away from his TV.
A few days later, when Trump finally got some free time to finish the fight -- White says the fight was already gone from his DVR ... and he couldn't watch the end on demand.
"So, he said, 'If I paid for the fight, shouldn't I get to watch the rest of the fight whenever I'm ready to watch it again?'"
Dana says he sees Trump's point and thinks POTUS is probably right ... but it's a beef the President needs to settle with DirecTV.
Of course, Dana and Trump are longtime friends -- with Dana even giving a speech for Donald at the Republican National Convention back in 2016.
Trump is a huge fight fan and recently called White after UFC 231 to rave about the Max Holloway vs. Brian Ortega fight.

Daniel Cormier is proving why he's the champ in AND out the Octagon -- the UFC star footed a $300 dinner bill for a woman who's battling Stage 4 cancer.
Pete Guzman and his mom, Rosario, were eating dinner at Sapporo Japanese restaurant in Monterey, CA on Thursday when in walks his favorite MMA fighter, Daniel Cormier.
Cormier was with his own family -- and, as fate would have it, they were seated with Pete and Rosario at the hibachi table.
Pete tells TMZ Sports ... Cormier and his fam couldn't have been nicer people. They had a great conversation and even posed for pics afterward.
And, since it was Rosario's birthday, the Cormiers busted out their singing voices for a rendition of "Happy Birthday."

When the time came to pay the check, the wait staff told Pete and Rosario their bill had already been covered ... by the reigning UFC heavyweight champion of the world!
"My mom was loving every second of it," Pete tells us.
Oh, and get this ... Pete says Cormier didn't know Rosario was battling stage 4 cancer (she never mentioned it at the table). But, the gesture provided so much happiness during this difficult time.
To top it all off ... Cormier even gave Rosario a handwritten birthday wish and autograph!!
C'mon ... even Jon Jones has to give Cormier props for this one!!!!

Jon Jones wants to see Conor McGregor get another crack at Khabib -- telling TMZ Sports he LOVED the first fight ... and really hopes Dana White locks 'em both in for a rematch.
"I would love to see that again," Jones said after the UFC 232 press conference ... "That was a great fight."
Of course, Khabib dominated Conor during the Oct. 6 bout at UFC 229 ... ultimately submitting the Irishman in the 4th round.
But, Jones believes one fight shouldn't define an athlete -- and he's confident McGregor still has the skills to compete with the best in the world.
"Wins and losses happen when you're fighting at the level that guys like Conor and I are fighting at ... it happens and it's a big part of the game but its not a race."
"As a martial artist, one fight never defines an athlete. It's a journey. It's about how you finish the race."
Despite his excitement, Jon says he thinks Conor should probably fight someone else before rushing back after Khabib ... but ultimately, they're on a collision course.
