Tyler, The Creator to Rappers Quit the Hot Wings & Sneaker Sprees Just Get To Interviews
UPDATE
1:57 PM PT -- After seeing the interview clip go viral, Tyler, The Creator is sending an olive branch to "Hot Ones" host Sean Evans for using the show as a scapegoat for hip hop's nonsense.
Tyler explained he's actually a fan of the show and simply used it as a loose example because it was at the top of his mind ... although "deep-throating" wings is clearly a bar!!!
No sorry for the sneakerheads, though. Joe La Puma, looks like you're on your own.
Tyler, The Creator is fed up with rappers and their lifestyle interviews ... mainly the ones found on Complex's channel involving scarfing down chicken wings and dropping thousands on new shoes!!! 😬
Midway through his sit down with Nardwuar, Tyler went on a bit of a tangent about the state of music ... explaining why he goes in-depth detailing his art.
He got a little ticked off as he criticized artists for feeding into the social media system and hopping on platforms to go "f***in' sneaker shopping" -- or even "deep-throating" hot wings for an hour!!!
Complex has been wooing audiences with their "Sneaker Shopping" and "Hot Ones" series for years featuring tons of celebrity guests -- but Tyler's letting it be known he's not that dude.
The way he sees it, artists are wasting precious time with chicken and sneakers when they should be discussing that 15-track album ... before it crashes and burns on Billboard.

We've seen plenty of artists complain about rap's quality these days ... ranging from current-gen artists such as Lil Yachty to veterans like Xzibit.
But, Tyler's beef is a little different -- regardless of the music quality, he's imploring rappers to up their game when it comes to promoting that music.
More focused interviews don't sound like a horrible idea.

Andre Ward Praises Jake Paul For Bringing New Audience To Boxing ... Open To Exhibition Fight W/ Problem Child

Jake Paul's a big deal in boxing, and some people don't like it ... but don't count legendary boxer Andre Ward among that group 'cause the multiple-time former world champion tells us he's a fan of The Problem Child driving new fans to the sport!
"I don't hate on it," Ward told Babcock on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs nightly on FS1) this week ... of Paul's transition from YouTuber to boxing star.
"The crossover stuff like what Jake Paul, Logan [Paul] is doing, [Francis] Ngannou just did, I respect it. That takes a lot of courage, takes a lot of heart."
Ward -- who retired in 2017 with a perfect 32-0 record -- said he applauds Paul for ignoring the naysayers who have labeled him a gimmick or sideshow and want him out of the sport.
"I don't think so. It actually brings a new audience, more eyeballs," Ward said, "and if the fanbase follows them over to boxing, then more power to 'em."
"I'm a fan of it, I appreciate it and I watch it."
In fact, Ward, who is still only 39 years old, told us he'd actually be down to step back in the ring for an exhibition fight ... against Jake or Logan.
"I don't hate against it. I would probably do it for the right situation. I keep myself just good enough to where if I needed 7, 8 weeks, I can take care of my business," Ward said.
Although he hasn't been fighting, Ward's been busy ... in fact, he just released a brand new memoir titled "Killing The Image: A Champion's Journey Of Faith, Fighting, And Forgiveness."
Ward's book isn't just about boxing ... Son of God talks about everything from his difficult childhood to the role that faith and religion have played in his life, and how it's guided to him incredible heights -- including 5 world titles and an Olympic gold medal.
"This book takes you deep into my mind, into my life, into my upbringing [and] how I go to the point that I'm at today."
Ward's memoir dropped Wednesday!

ANDRE WARD ELOGIA A JAKE PAUL POR TRAER UN NUEVO PÚBLICO AL BOXEO Abierto a una pelea de exhibición con Problem Child

Jake Paul es muy importante en el boxeo y a algunas personas no les gusta, pero no cuentes con que el legendario boxeador Andre Ward entre ese grupo. El varias veces ex campeón del mundo nos dice que es un fan de "The Problem Child" por que atrae a nuevos aficionados al deporte.
"No lo odio", dijo Ward a Babcock en el programa de televisión "TMZ Sports" (se emite todas las noches en FS1) esta semana, de la transición de Paul de YouTuber a estrella del boxeo.
"Las cosas cruzadas como lo que Jake Paul, Logan [Paul] está haciendo, o lo que [Francis] Ngannou acaba de hacer, lo respeto. Eso requiere mucho coraje, requiere mucho corazón".
Ward —quien se retiró en 2017 con un récord perfecto de 32-0— dijo que aplaude a Paul por ignorar a los detractores que lo han etiquetado como un simple showman o espectáculo secundario y lo quieren fuera del deporte.
"No creo que sea así. En realidad aporta un nuevo público, más ojos", dijo Ward, "y si la afición les sigue hasta el boxeo, pues más poder para ellos".
"Soy un fan, lo aprecio y lo veo".
De hecho, Ward —que solo tiene 39 años— nos dijo que estaría dispuesto a volver al ring para una pelea de exhibición contra Jake o Logan.
"No tengo nada en contra. Probablemente lo haría en la situación adecuada. Me mantengo lo suficientemente bien como para ocuparme de mis asuntos", dijo Ward.
Aunque no ha estado luchando, Ward ha estado ocupado, de hecho, acaba de publicar un nuevo libro de memorias titulado "Killing The Image: A Champion's Journey Of Faith, Fighting, And Forgiveness".
El libro de Ward no trata solo de boxe, Hijo de Dios habla de todo, desde su difícil infancia hasta el papel que la fe y la religión han desempeñado en su vida, y cómo le han guiado a cotas increíbles (5 títulos mundiales y una medalla de oro olímpica).
"Este libro te lleva a lo más profundo de mi mente, de mi vida, de mi educación y de cómo llegué al punto en el que estoy hoy".
Las memorias de Ward salen a la venta el miércoles.

The start of C.J. Stroud's NFL career has been so impressive ... even his Houston teammate, Dare Ogunbowale, says he's having a hard time believing it.
"I'm not even going to lie," the Texans running back told TMZ Sports this week. "A little bit of it definitely surprises me just 'cause I know what it takes to be an NFL player, but I really know what it takes to be a quarterback in this league. It is not easy.
"And he's making it look easy."

Through eight games of his rookie season so far, Stroud's thrown for 2,270 yards, 14 touchdowns and just one interception. In his last game, a thrilling win over Tampa Bay, he set a rookie record with 470 passing yards.
Ogunbowale tells us it's all been incredible to watch ... explaining, "It's special, man."
"Obviously you see the talent," he added, "but the poise he has, the command he has in the huddle, the confidence he has in him and this offense, it's fun to see."
Stroud will be facing a tough test this weekend -- as he'll lead the 4-4 Texans into Cincinnati to play the red-hot Bengals.
Dare says it's obviously going to be hard a matchup ... though, sadly, he told us his duties for the game will not include kicking -- as they did against the Buccaneers last weekend.

UFC's Jiri Prochazka Pereira's Talented ... But He's Not The Most Dangerous Man I've Fought

Jiri Prochazka admits Alex Pereira is a good freakin' fighter, but is he the most dangerous man he's ever faced? Prochazka doesn't think so.
TMZ Sports talked to the 31-year-old, #1 light heavyweight contender ... and we asked Jiri if Alex presented the biggest challenge to him over his 10+ year pro-MMA career.
"I will see that when I face him. I will feel that who is he. But what I've saw with his style, I think I've fought with more dangerous guys."
Surprising ... until you look at the opponents he's shared an Octagon with over the years, including Glover Teixeira (submission win, 2022), Volkan Oezdemir (KO win, 2020), and Dominick Reyes (KO win, 2021).
But, as good as those fighters are, none possess the crushing knockout power of Poatan (8-2, 6 KO) ... especially when it comes to his vicious left hook. Alex has put many men to sleep with that shot over the years.
We asked Jiri, a dynamic striker in his own right, if he believed he could win a stand-up battle against Alex, assuming things don't go to the ground where Prochazka would seemingly have the advantage.
"Yes, yes. 100 percent yes," Prochazka said without any hesitation.
Of course, the guys are fighting for the belt held by Jamahal Hill ... who ruptured his Achilles a few months ago.
We asked Jiri what it'd mean to him to once again have the UFC championship belt wrapped around his waist ... and he was at a loss for words.
"I can't talk about it. You will see that in Madison Square Garden, and I believe in that."
As for Pereira, we talked to him, too ... and let's say he sees things going a bit differently.
UFC 295 goes down Saturday night at Madison Square Garden! 👊

Chad Johnson Joe Burrow Is The Best QB In The NFL ... When Healthy

Move over Patrick Mahomes -- Joe Burrow is actually the best quarterback in the NFL ... so says Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson, who tells TMZ Sports the Cincinnati Bengals superstar deserves the title when he's 100% healthy.
Joey B has had his fair share of injuries in his short career -- he tore his ACL and MCL in his rookie season, forcing him to miss the final six games ... and, more recently, suffered a calf strain in July that continued to give him trouble early on in his 2023 campaign.
He's now proving he's back to his usual self after leading the Bengals to four straight wins ... and Ochocinco says this version of Burrow is all the evidence he needs to put him at the top of his QB list.
"A healthy Joe Burrow is the best quarterback in the NFL," 45-year-old Johnson -- who played for the Bengals from 2001 to 2010 -- said this week.
"You can argue Patrick Mahomes, you can argue what other quarterbacks, but he just is."
Burrow has been balling out lately ... with big wins over San Francisco and Buffalo over the past two weeks as the Bengals find themselves in the contender conversation once again.
Since Burrow was selected as the No. 1 overall pick in 2020, he has led the Bengals to five postseason wins and a Super Bowl appearance ... something Johnson said shouldn't be ignored.
"What he's done for that franchise in such a short amount of time, I mean, how can he not be [the best]?"
Speaking of Burrow, he appeared on this week's edition of "Inside the NFL" -- which airs Tuesdays on the CW -- and Johnson said he had a blast interviewing the Ohio product.
"It was a joy for me," Johnson said. "It was really, really dope."
.@ochocinco's got a million jobs, but being @JoeyB's nutrition specialist is not one of them. 😂

MATTHEW PERRY CHANDLER ENGAÑÓ A MÓNICA Pero le dijo a los guionistas que quiten la escena

El personaje de Matthew Perry, Chandler Bing, estuvo a punto de protagonizar un escándalo al engañar a Monica, pero nos han comentado que el actor consiguió que se desechara la idea.
Hablamos con Lisa Cash, que apareció en el episodio de 1999 de la temporada 5, "The One in Vegas: Part 1". Nos dice que consiguió el trabajo como extra, pero su papel en el episodio fue originalmente mucho más controvertido... o lo habría sido si Matthew no hubiera hablado.
Ella le dice a TMZ que la escena tenía origen en Mónica -interpretada por Courteney Cox- quien tenía una acalorada discusión con Chandler. El personaje de Lisa supuestamente iba a entrar a la habitación de Chandler para realizar un servicio de habitaciones a su habitación de hotel en Las Vegas.
Al parecer, Chandler y el personaje de Lisa se llevaron bien después de su gran pelea con Mónica, llegando incluso a engañarla con la empleada del hotel.
Si veías la serie, sabes que eso es algo que los fans NUNCA le perdonarían a Chandler y eso es exactamente lo que Matthew pensaba. Lisa dice que después de ensayar la escena, fue a los escritores y les dijo que la eliminaran.
Lisa sabía que tener un papel protagonista con Matthew Perry habría sido un cambio de juego para su carrera, pero cree que en última instancia fue un buen movimiento y podría haber cambiado el curso de la serie.
Mientras que toda la trama fue cancelada, Lisa terminó permaneciendo en el episodio como azafata en la escena de Ross y Rachel.
Ha habido una avalancha de amor por Matthew desde que fue encontrado muerto en su jacuzzi el fin de semana pasado y Lisa corrobora muchas de las cosas amables que la gente ha estado diciendo sobre él a raíz de su fallecimiento.
Matthew Perry Chandler Supposed To Cheat On Monica ... Went To 'Friends' Writers To Get It Cut

Matthew Perry's character, Chandler Bing, on "Friends," almost had a scandal on his hands by cheating on Monica ... but we're told the actor got the whole idea scrapped.
We spoke with Lisa Cash, who appeared in the 1999 episode from season 5, "The One in Vegas: Part 1" -- telling us she got the gig as an extra, but her role on the episode was originally a lot more controversial ... or it would have been if Matthew didn't speak up.
She tells TMZ ... the OG scene revolved around Monica -- played by Courteney Cox -- getting into a heated argument with Chandler, with Lisa's character eventually bringing up room service to his hotel room in Vegas.
Apparently, Chandler and Lisa's character hit it off after his big fight with Monica -- going so far as to actually cheat on her with the hotel staffer.
If you watched the show, you know that's something fans would NEVER forgive Chandler for, and that's exactly what Matthew thought. Lisa says after rehearsing the scene, he went to the writers and told them to axe it.
Lisa knew having a costarring role with Matthew Perry would have been a game changer for her career, but thinks it was ultimately a good move and could have changed the course of the show.
While the whole plot got nixed, Lisa ended up staying in the episode as a flight attendant in Ross and Rachel's scene.
There's been an outpouring of love for Matthew since he was found dead in his jacuzzi last weekend ... and Lisa's echoing a lot of the kind things folks have been saying about him in the wake of his passing.

Pudge Rodriguez Praises Bochy After W.S. Win 'Hall of Famer, Obviously'

Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez had nothing but great things to say about Bruce Bochy following his World Series victory this week ... telling TMZ Sports there's absolutely no doubt in his mind the Texas manager will be inducted in Cooperstown one day.
"Hall of Famer," the former Rangers catcher said. "Hall of Famer, obviously."
With a 5-0 win over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, Bochy became just the sixth manager ever to earn four World Series championship rings. Unlike the other five, though, he's not yet secured a place in baseball's HOF.
Pudge, however, clearly thinks that will happen sooner than later ... calling the 68-year-old one of the greatest big-game coaches of all time.
"When you start to play in the playoffs, it's a different monster," said Rodriguez, who was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2017. "It's always a different game. It's a different ball game. And he's the best doing that. He's the best manager in that situation. And we all see it."
Pudge -- who's been working as a special assistant to the general manager of the Rangers -- said Bochy deserves a ton of credit for leading Texas to its first-ever title, adding that his calming presence made a huge difference in the dugout.
"As a player," he said, "you feel comfortable that, 'Hey, he's going to put all the pieces together to bring this game back and win for us.'"
Pudge also had high praise for the Rangers' World Series MVP, Corey Seager ... calling him straight up "one of my favorite players."
As for what Pudge will do now that baseball's officially hit its offseason ... he'll be staying busy selling pizzas -- telling us he's got his hands full helping make good food at his Pudge's Pizza restaurants.

Shawn Porter Ngannou Could Be Heavyweight Boxer ... After Fury Fight

Exclusive
- 31 shares
Shawn "Showtime" Porter was impressed by Francis Ngannou's boxing debut against Tyson Fury last week ... telling TMZ Sports he could see the former UFC legend having a successful boxing career in the heavyweight division.
ICYMI, Ngannou lost by split decision to Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) on Oct. 28 in Saudi Arabia ... and even though it was his first boxing match ever, Francis put on a good performance, including a knockdown in the 3rd round.
"Unfortunately, even though Ngannou showed himself, again, to be very strong, showed himself to be prepared for this fight, he also showed he does not have enough boxing mechanics to win enough rounds to beat Tyson Fury," Porter said.
Shawn -- who won 31 fights in the welter/middleweight division -- believes Ngannou's execution could make him a decent heavyweight boxer in the future ... once he gets a couple of fights under his belt and some familiarity with the sport.
"His lack of experience showed because there were rounds where he essentially did zero to win those rounds," Porter said.
"If he's able to find a pace, he's gonna get some heavyweight fighters some trouble because he's big enough to fight there, he showed he's strong enough to fight there and the guy is athletic. He got skills!"
Even Ngannous's age (37) doesn't stop Porter from believing he can be tough in boxing ... saying fighters don't even get to their prime until their mid-30s and heavyweights age slower than other weight classes.
However, Porter -- who became a boxing analyst after retiring in 2021 -- does point out that Fury didn't fight hard either ... but he's not taking anything away from Ngannou's debut.
"He underperformed," Porter said about Fury. "He wasn't prepared for this fight."
Porter isn't the only one who believes Fury didn't come ready ... undefeated boxer Shakur Stevenson told us the same thing, saying Tyson was "off that night."
Ngannou will definitely get more chances to prove himself and his team revealed this week that a decision, as to who his next opponent will be, is close.

Ex-NFL Star Devin Funchess Still Training For NBA Career ... I Can Help A Team!!!

Ex-NFL star Devin Funchess is keeping his hoop dreams alive ... telling TMZ Sports he's still hoping to suit up for an NBA team -- and he's putting in the work nonstop to make it happen!!
29-year-old Funchess made headlines last year ... revealing after five seasons on the gridiron, he wanted to take his talents to the hardwood.
We caught up with the 6'4", 225-pound athlete about how the process is going this week ... and it's safe to say he's dead set on making it to the Association.
In fact, he's putting his skills to the test with California's Statham Academy squad in the Asia Basket Dasmariñas Tournament in the Philippines this weekend (DF dropped 10 points, grabbed 7 boards, and had 4 blocks in their first game).
"My end goal is the NBA, get a few seasons over there just like I did in the NFL. Just to be able to compete against the best players in the world, that'll be a blessing to me. I've done it in the football realm already. And it's nothing but dedication, repetition and just having fun."
Devin -- who first dunked a basketball when he was 10 -- has been working with NBA trainers to hone his craft ... and played against pros like Michael Beasley, Amar'e Stoudemire and John Wall.
Funchess explains his unique experience as a football veteran will help bring experience to a squad -- even though he'd technically be a rookie.
But he's not looking to come in the league and be LeBron James -- Funchess says he's just looking to make an impact and help teams win.
Of course, basketball was Devin's first love ... but after an issue with his coach in his junior season of high school ball, he switched his focus to football. He went on to play at Michigan before suiting up for the Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts.
Best part of switching to hoop?? Funchess says he doesn't have to ice up nearly as much anymore.

Travis Kelce Are You In Love With Taylor Swift?!? ... Press Conference In Germany Gets Awkward
Travis Kelce didn't seem to be too keen on answering questions about Taylor Swift while out in Germany on Friday ... especially when the inquires turned to whether or not he was "in love" with his new girlfriend.
Kelce sat down with media members out in Frankfurt to preview the Chiefs' Sunday international game against the Dolphins ... when suddenly, one reporter began prodding the tight end about his latest romantic partner.
First, the journalist wanted a relationship update ... which Kelce kind of gave.
"The latest status is I got to see her last week," he said with a smile. "That's the latest status right there."
Then, the questioner asked straight up, "Are you in love?"
Kelce, however, dodged the question like it was a linebacker in the middle of a football field.
"I'm going to keep my personal relationship personal," he said.
The Swift questions didn't end there, though ... because just before Kelce got off the podium, one reporter wanted to know if Swift would be in attendance for the big game against Miami at Deutsche Bank Park.
But, as he did with the previous questions, Kelce sidestepped the inquiry as well.
Of course, we shoulda seen this one coming ... after all, Kelce promised a few weeks ago he was going to keep his relationship with Taylor a little more under wraps -- and while he's bent the rules here and there, it seems he's done now.
Sorry, Swifties.

Travis Kelce ¡¿Estás enamorado de Taylor Swift?! ... Conferencia en Alemania se pone incómoda
Travis Kelce no parecía muy dispuesto a responder preguntas sobre Taylor Swift, en su paso por Alemania este viernes, especialmente cuando las preguntas apuntaron a si estaba o no "enamorado" de su nueva novia.
Kelce se sentó con los representantes de los medios en Frankfurt para abordar el partido internacional del domingo entre los Chiefs y los Dolphins, cuando de repente, un reportero comenzó a preguntarle sobre su último romance.
En primer lugar, el periodista quería una actualización de la relación, que Kelce más o menos le entregó.
"El último estado es que fui a verla la semana pasada", dijo con una sonrisa. "Ese es el último estado, ahí mismo".
Entonces, el reportero le preguntó directamente: "¿Estás enamorado?".
Kelce, sin embargo, esquivó la pregunta como si fuera un linebacker en medio del campo.
"Voy a mantener mi relación personal, personal", dijo.
Pero las preguntas sobre Swift no acabaron ahí porque justo antes de que Kelce se bajara del podio, un reportero quiso saber si Swift asistiría al gran partido contra Miami en el Deutsche Bank Park.
Pero como lo hizo con el resto del interrogatorio, también eludió la pregunta.
Por supuesto, debimos haberlo previsto, después de todo, Kelce prometió hace unas semanas que iba a mantener su relación con Taylor un poco más en secreto, y aunque ha flexibilizado las reglas de vez en cuando, parece que ahora sí dejará de hacerlo.
Lo siento, Swifties.

Dan Dakich spent 16 years with Bob Knight as a star player and coach, and while "The General" was certainly a hardass many times, his former pupil revealed another side of the legendary Indiana University coach ... the funny side!
"The dude was hilarious. He comes off as this big, mean, 'I'm gonna go crazy on everybody,' and he did. Let's be honest, he did. The man would go nuts on you and make you do things you never thought your body was capable of doing, but he was hilarious, honest to God," the Outkick host told TMZ Sports.
The 61-year-old continued ... "He was a guy's guy. You could crack on him if he was in the right mood. If we won a few games. And he was certainly gonna crack on you."
As for his prowess on the bench, Dan says Knight's "the best basketball coach I've seen."
Bob Knight, Legendary Basketball Coach, Dead At 83
Dakich played for Bobby at IU from 1981 to 1985 ... where he served as a team captain during his junior and senior seasons.
Right after graduating, DD went to work with Knight as a graduate assistant until 1987, when he became a full-time assistant coach. Dan remained with Indiana until 1997 when he left to become the head coach at Bowling Green.
Dakich has since left the coaching world ... and has become a big media personality, hosting his own show, "Don't @ Me with Dan Dakich" on Outkick.
