Jake Paul Destroys Andre August In Boxing Bout ... Knocks Him Right On His Ass
Jake Paul made short work of Andre August in a professional boxing match Friday night ... knocking him out in the first round!!
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Paul went toe-to-toe with August in the ring at Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida, but the cruiserweight bout was over just minutes after it began.
Check out the video ... the boxers dance around the ring trading blows for a bit, yet nothing wildly exciting happens.
That all changes at the 2:32 mark of the first round when Paul throws a powerful right uppercut, clocking August right in the kisser.
August hits the canvas like a sack of potatoes and struggles to get back up to his feet as the referee stops the fight.
Paul celebrates by raising his arm and waving goodbye to August with his gloved hand.
With Friday's victory, Paul has now improved his boxing record to 8-1 with 5 KOs. His only defeat came in February when he fought Tommy Fury, the brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, losing in a split decision.

Pacman Jones Pleads Guilty To Misdemeanor In Airport Outburst Case ... Apologizes To Cops
Pacman Jones pleaded guilty to a charge of disorderly conduct in a Kentucky courtroom on Thursday in his airport meltdown case -- and after he submitted the plea, the ex-NFL star apologized to the cops he screamed at during the outburst.
Jones appeared before a judge in Boone County to issue the plea after reaching a deal with prosecutors.
As part of the plea agreement, officials dropped the other two charges he had been facing in the case -- alcohol intoxication and making a terroristic threat.
The judge sentenced Jones to 30 days in jail but suspended imposition of the sentence ... meaning if Jones keeps nose clean for the next two years, the former football player won't have to serve any time behind bars.
After the hearing, Jones provided a statement on the case on his X page -- writing, in part, "I am not proud of my conversations with the police that day."
Your Honor,
— ADAm Pacman Jones (@REALPACMAN24) December 14, 2023 @REALPACMAN24
Thank you for allowing me to speak on my own behalf today. I take my role as a retired athlete and citizen of our community seriously; I absolutely believe in giving back and treating others well. I LOVE living in this city. That’s why I am disappointed that I…
"I am truly aware that police have a very difficult job and deserve to be treated with respect and appreciation ... The police were professional with me and deserved my respect in return. I genuinely apologize."
Remember, Jones was first arrested in the case while at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport on Sept. 11, after he got into a spat with airline employees over the electrical outlets in his seat on the plane.
Jones claimed he complained about his outlets not working -- and in response, airline officials decided to boot him from the flight.
Once Jones got off the jet, he blew a fuse ... with body cam footage showing him yelling at officers.
In his statement Thursday, Jones said he simply "let my frustrations from the plane bubble over into my conversation with the officers."
"I regret the fact that my comments were rude, offensive, and not warranted," he added.

Mark Cuban says if he were in charge of the ball at the center of the Giannis Antetokounmpo vs. Pacers tiff ... the Bucks superstar would be disappointed -- 'cause he would've given the memento to Indiana.
The Dallas Mavericks honcho didn't mince words when talking about the topic to TMZ Sports on Thursday ... saying, "if you have a rookie who's never scored before in an NBA game, that's a big deal that only happens once."
"So," he continued, "I'd give the ball to the rookie."

Of course, Giannis felt differently following Milwaukee's 140-126 win over Indiana at the Fiserv Forum on Wednesday night ... going absolutely ballistic when the Pacers wanted to hand the ball off to Oscar Tshiebwe for scoring his first NBA basket instead of to the two-time MVP who had just scored 64 points.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Throws Fit After Pacers Take Game Ball Following 64-Pt Night
Antetokounmpo ran to the front of the Pacers' locker room to confront them -- before he sprinted back on the court to complain to arena officials about the ball some more.
Eventually, a basketball was given to Giannis ... though he told reporters afterward he wasn't sure if it was actually the one he used to drop a franchise-high mark for points during the game.
Cuban said the home team should ultimately be the one to make the call in the situation -- though he said he'd just have to give it up to the rookie in this instance ... but would still do something nice for Giannis.

“You want the ball? You’re not getting that ball”
Then, Giannis gets heated at Tyrese Haliburton and yells at him: “Go get the f*cking ball! You need to go get it” pic.twitter.com/e9XAQzNZVl
"With situations like that," he said, "I'd take the box score, I'd get his teammates to sign it and I'd frame it for him."
He added that if Giannis really wanted the ball -- he recommended bartering with the rookie for it ... perhaps by signing a jersey or even forking over some cash.
"Sixty-four is a big deal," Cuban said. "It rarely, rarely, rarely happens. And for Giannis it was a big deal, but if it's my home game, unless the rookie says it's OK, I'm giving the ball to the rookie."

Bam Margera is up to his old tricks ... lending his "Jackass" experience to a new group of wild daredevils and helping them film a brutal knockout video.
The former "Jackass" star shot a couple stunts over the weekend in L.A. with the MadHouse Boys... throwing on a boxing glove and unleashing some haymakers to the head.
In the footage, obtained by TMZ, you see Bam sneaking up on one of the MadHouse Boys from behind and punching him in the side of the head, and it looks like it hurts ... which, we guess, is the whole damn point.
For the uninitiated, MadHouse is a next-generation stunt group ... on social media they say they are basically like "if 'Jackass' and your mom had a baby." Great visual.
We're told the MadHouse guys reached out to Bam because they wanted him to be part of one of their videos.
Of course, Bam's had a nasty falling out with the OG "Jackass" stars and producers ... so he's available, and apparently willing to help the competition.

It was a ruff day for one dog ... who made an impromptu break for it down the Staten Island Expressway before ultimately being saved by some freaked-out motorists.
In dash cam footage shared to TikTok, drivers are seen trying to divert the runaway chihuahua named Bean to the Clove Road exit ... but they're barking up the wrong tree as the pooch continues scrambling across the jam-packed highway.
Motorists then leap out of their vehicles trying to catch Bean ... though he keeps scampering away.

Arden Heights resident Katie Marie, whose dash cam captured the footage, told Staten Island Advance Saturday that her instinct kicked in when she saw the dog on the loose ... ensuring that it got to safety.
She explained the plan was to keep the dog in the HOV lane to try to exhaust him ... and soon, 20 vehicles were trying to do the same in the "extremely wholesome" effort to help out the directionless dog.
Bean's owner, Tee Richardson, later revealed he ran off after getting spooked by a barking pit bull -- and is now home and safe.

Adam y Lena dicen que eso está lejos de la verdad y realmente hacen cosas normales como una pareja, por no hablar de que tienen un hijo y viven juntos.
Ahora, en el frente menos tradicional, Adam y Lena acaban de concluir su reality show de competencia, "Por el amor de Lena", que tenía a varios chicos compitiendo por tener un trío con Lena y Adam, ¡y qué trofeo fue a la estrella de cine para adultos Lil D!

Adam22 is putting Joe Budden on blast for saying his marriage to Lena the Plug was a sham ... and he's doing it by calling out Joe's own past relationships.
We got Adam and Lena outside their No Jumper Store Friday on Melrose, and he says the chatter from Joe is pretty ironic ... and he's got a bold reason why.
ICYMI, Joe claimed on his podcast that Adam's on a downward spiral and is doing a lot to stay relevant, citing letting Lena sleep with different dudes as an example ... he even thought the 2 might just have an arrangement going on.
Adam and Lena say that's far from the truth, and really do a lot of normal things as a couple -- not to mention they have a kid, and freakin' live together, too.
Now, on the less traditional front ... Adam and Lena just wrapped their reality competition show, "For the Love of Lena," which had multiple guys vying to have a threesome with Lena and Adam ... and that unique trophy went to adult film star Lil D.
He was with Adam and Lena on Friday, and we asked him what his favorite part was about winning the competition. Hint: You don't need 2 guesses to figure out his answer.

UPDATE
8:46 AM PT -- A rep for Florida Highway Patrol confirmed there was a crash involving three vehicles -- a Mercedes, Nissan and Toyota -- that occurred in Miami.
While there were no fatalities, police said at least one adult male was transported to a local hospital, but his condition was not disclosed, nor was his identity.
2 Chainz was rushed to a hospital early Saturday morning after he was hit by a car in Miami ... TMZ has learned.
The rapper was driving on I-95 and about to exit when we're told by informed sources a car hit his vehicle. We're told cops suspect the other driver may have been driving under the influence.
It appears 2 Chainz was hit from behind because the damage to the car was on the front left driver's side -- and the damage is extensive, meaning the force of the crash was intense.
2 Chainz just posted this vid of him in an ambulance on his way to the hospital.
We're told he suffered neck injuries and possibly other injuries as well, but that he's in stable condition in the hospital.
He had left a strip club called Booby Trap, a hot Miami strip club, shortly before the crash. He was in Miami for Art Basel.

Ric Flair wasn't saying "WOOOO" after his recent run-in with Michael Chandler ... it was more like "OWWWW," 'cause the WWE legend was straight-up tackled to the ground!!
Naitch and the UFC star had an "altercation" at a bar recently ... and the footage of their wild trash-talkin' session that turned violent quickly spread on social media.
Of course, many rightfully suspected there wasn't any real bad blood between the two -- after all, they've starred in commercials for Car Shield in the past ... and actually have another spot dropping next week.
But we reached out to Chandler about the whole thing ... and he explained what exactly went down.
"It was a work," the lightweight contender told TMZ Sports. "Ric was teaching me the art."
Regardless, it's still just as funny to see the two get in full character for the clip ... with 74-year-old Flair showing he's still just as good with his lip service, and 37-year-old Chandler slapping him and doing a double leg takedown.
Chandler's expected to take on Conor McGregor at some point in 2024 ... so who better than the Nature Boy to get him ready for that fight!!
