Jermall Charlo Boxing Star Arrested For Assualt ... Attorney Claims It's A Shake Down

UPDATE

10:10 AM PT -- 2/12 -- Kent Schaffer, Charlo's attorney, tells TMZ ... "A relative went to police and said Jermall struck him up back in September 2021 in Fort Bend. Despite the fact that plenty of witnesses were present, no investigation was done. This is an attempt to shake Jermall down for money and it's not going to happen. If these charges are not dismissed Jermall will be acquitted."

UPDATE

4:24 PM PT -- 2/11 -- According to court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, Charlo's arrest stems from an alleged September 5, 2021 incident in which he's accused of "punching or grabbing" a man.

UPDATE

Officials in the docs say the man was injured in the alleged altercation. They also say the man was a member of Charlo's "family or household."

Boxing star Jermall Charlo is in trouble with the law again ... TMZ Sports has learned he was arrested on Friday in Texas.

A Fort Bend County Jail official tells us ... the 31-year-old was booked at around 1:30 PM CT after a warrant for his arrest was issued by the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office.

According to jail records, Charlo was booked on a felony charge of assaulting a family/household member with a previous conviction. His bond was set at $10,000, though records show he's still in custody.

Details of the allegations against Charlo are currently unclear ... we're working on it.

This is the second time Charlo has been arrested in the past year -- as we previously reported, he was taken into custody in San Antonio in August 2021 after he was accused of stealing from a waitress during a dispute at a bar.

That case was dismissed earlier this month due to "insufficient evidence," records show.

Shanna Moakler BF Questioning Proposing Marriage ... After She Flirts With Lamar

Shanna Moakler's boyfriend is having second thoughts about proposing ... because he's not liking what he's seeing from her and Lamar Odom on the "Celebrity Big Brother" live feed.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Shanna's boyfriend, Matthew Rondeau, is NOT happy with the subtle sexual innuendos flying back and forth between his girl and Lamar inside the 'CBB' house.

We're told Matthew's been watching the live feeds, plus the reality show, ever since Shanna entered the house ... and he's picked up some troublesome behavior between the two.

In one clip, Shanna says to Lamar ... "These are wetter so just keep pushing" ... and he replies "that's always better." The exchange continues with Shanna saying, "Always better when it's wetter, that's my motto."

Our sources say Matthew noticed Shanna using some of the same phrases he uses around her, and he finds it disrespectful and hurtful and doesn't know why she's doing it.

Matthew understands Shanna's on a reality show, but he feels boundaries are being crossed ... and assumes producers are egging on the narrative for the show.

Regardless, we're told things aren't sitting well with Matthew because Shanna is still his girlfriend ... TV cameras be damned.

Add it all up, and our sources say Matthew is second-guessing whether he wants to take the plunge with Shanna and ask for her hand in marriage.

As we've told you ... Mattew was shopping for engagement rings over the weekend at Tiffany and Co. in Thousand Oaks. Shanna's been dating him on and off since 2020.

Floyd Mayweather's Bodyguard Investigated For Battery ... Allegedly Smacked Phone

Floyd Mayweather's bodyguard is under investigation for battery after a man claimed he was assaulted by the TMT member, law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports ... but there are inconsistencies with the accuser's story.

Mayweather was at Yard House near Crypto.com arena (formerly Staples Center) in L.A. around 6 PM Thursday. While there, we're told a man claims he was assaulted by a guy on Mayweather's security team ... after the boxer allegedly got upset the alleged victim was filming him.

But, almost the entire interaction is up for debate.

The alleged victim claims he was hit by bodyguard. However, witnesses told police the bodyguard didn't hit the guy ... but rather knocked a cell phone out of his hand.

Witnesses told cops the man "flopped" after the incident with the bodyguard, falling over in dramatic fashion.

The alleged victim told cops the bodyguard then allegedly picked up the phone, and attempted to get the man to unlock him phone and erase the video. But, the man allegedly declined to comply, so the bodyguard gave the phone back, and everyone went separate ways.

As for the superstar boxer, a rep tells us Mayweather stopped by the restaurant, but left because the place was too crowded. Floyd says there was no incident at Yard House.

The man who was allegedly assaulted waited about a half-hour to call police. Cops responded and took a battery report. The man's story was not entirely consistent with witness claims.

Police will now investigate the alleged incident. No one has been arrested.

No allegations have been made against Floyd.

Dave Portnoy Tees Off On Roger Goodell ... 'One of the Great Criminals, Villains'

LET'S TALK, ROGER
TMZSports.com

Time heals all wounds, right?? Not when it comes to Dave Portnoy and Roger Goodell ... 'cause the Barstool Sports founder tells TMZ Sports he still hates the NFL commish with a burning passion.

Pres -- who is by far Goodell's biggest critic -- says the beef was rejuvenated after Barstool tried to purchase the naming rights to the Buffalo Bills' stadium ... and Goodell seemingly intervened.

"So, we tried to do that last year, and I thought we were going to have a chance to do it," Dave said at Saddle Ranch in L.A.

"And, it sounds like maybe the NFL, Roger Goodell, one of the great criminals, villains, dictators of all time tried to step in and put an end to that."

Portnoy says he still wants the naming rights, though ... as he loves the people of Buffalo and would "make the move in a heartbeat" if the opportunity presented itself.

But, that's not something Dave thinks will actually happen ... as long as Goodell is the commish.

"Again, Roger Goodell, he’s a real bad guy," Dave says. "I'm not even joking. Everything he says is not the truth, and I think he hates us."

"We can’t force someone to sell us the name rights, but if they named the price we would pay it."

Portnoy did, however, say he would be willing to sit down with the commish to "hash things out."

There's more -- Portnoy goes in on Goodell's handling of alleged racist hiring practices ... saying he's doing a "horrible" job.

Saints Star Cameron Jordan DeMarcus Ware & Jared Allen Belong In Hall Of Fame ... Devin Hester, Too!!!

TOTALLY SNUBBED
TMZSports.com

NFL star Cameron Jordan tells TMZ Sports he's got a bone to pick with Hall of Fame voters ... saying, in his mind, both DeMarcus Ware and Jared Allen belonged in the 2022 class.

The Saints defensive end -- who knows a thing or two about getting to the quarterback -- made the proclamation outside of Academy Nightclub in L.A. this week ... saying he believes both Ware and Allen were snubbed when the class was announced on Thursday night.

Jordan, though, didn't seem too concerned about the guys' future Canton prospects ... telling us he believes they'll both get in eventually.

Jordan also seemed to think Devin Hester got slighted too.

As for who did get in ... some of the notable names included former Patriots star Richard Seymour, ex-Packers safety LeRoy Butler, and former Jaguars tackle Tony Boselli.

Tom & Gisele Lockin' Hands in the Sand in Costa Rica

Tom Brady hung up his football cleats and slipped on some sneakers for a romantic walk in the sand with Gisele.

TB12 and Gisele are on their annual beach vacation down in Costa Rica ... and locked hands Friday as they strolled along the sand ... with a cute pup in tow.

Seems retirement is suiting Tom well ... they both look super happy. It's only been a few weeks since he gave up football after 22 years in the NFL, saying he wants to spend more time with the fam.

Tom and Gisele are about to celebrate 13 years of marriage ... when you can smile broadly after that amount of time, something's clearly working!

The Brady bunch is down in Costa Rica a little bit sooner than Tom probably would have wanted ... the family always jets down after football season, but the Super Bowl is just 2 days away.

While Tom's in paradise with Gisele, the team that knocked him out of the NFL playoffs -- the Los Angeles Rams -- are gearing up to play in the big game.

Spago was the spot for Michael Rubin's power brunch Friday ... with a guest list that included Shaq, Meek Mill, Kevin Hart, A-Rod, Lil Baby, Steve Aoki and J Balvin!

Certainly an impressive group of A-listers, but should be expected for one of the biggest weekends of the year in such a celeb-heavy city.

Of course, the big showdown will happen Sunday when the hometown Rams take on the Cincinnati Bengals, but with the hype surrounding the game, there's no question the parties with this celeb caliber -- or bigger -- will be bumpin' all weekend long.

Joe Rogan Off UFC 271 Broadcast ... After Scheduling Conflict

UFC 271 goes down tomorrow night ... but Joe Rogan won't be behind the mic, TMZ Sports has confirmed.

We're told the world's most famous podcaster has a scheduling conflict leaving him unable to work the fights. Michael Bisping is taking Rogan's place for Saturday's event ... which airs on ESPN+ PPV.

Of course, the JRE host has been under fire for weeks ... starting with supposed "misinformation" spread through his immensely popular podcast. Then, last weekend a compilation video of Joe using the n-word from several years back spread across the Internet.

Rogan apologized ... but also described the situation as a "political hit job."

The Joe Rogan Experience/Spotify

After the news broke, there was speculation ESPN and/or the UFC pulled Rogan.

However, our ESPN sources tell us that's not true. They say they have nothing to do with the lineup of commentators. As for the UFC, Joe is generally beloved by the company ... and we're told they did NOT pull him.

Bottom line, our sources are telling us Joe had a scheduling conflict ... and it was his decision to miss the fights.

The card's main event features a fight between Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker ... from the Toyota Center in Houston, TX.

ALL OR NOTHING
BBC One

Adele has made a vow to fans hoping to see her in Vegas -- exclaiming the show will go on -- and needs to happen by the end of this year, because she's got a baby on the brain.

Adele sat down with BBC's Graham Norton Friday, saying that while she was gutted she couldn't start the residency ... it absolutely is still happening, and she'll be on stage in 2022.

The pop star was reluctant to announce any exact dates, but says it needs to happen this year because she wants to have a baby in 2023.

Of course, she's been dating sports biz big shot Rich Paul -- so it would appear things are getting very serious between the two.

During the interview, Adele wore a nice rock on her ring finger ... even Graham had to ask the question that we've all been wondering ... is she engaged?

Adele laughed off the question, and would not confirm ... but she also didn't say no. Perhaps both a new baby and last name are in her very near future.

Of course, that would come after the Vegas show becomes water under the bridge 😉

Deion Sanders Doctor Feared He Could Lose Leg ... During Foot Injury Battle

Deion Sanders' foot issues were actually MUCH worse than people thought ... 'cause at one point, doctors feared the Hall of Famer could lose his leg.

The shocking detail was revealed in a trailer for the next 6 episodes of Sanders' "Coach Prime" doc with Barstool Sports and SMAC Productions ... showing the Jackson State play-caller in excruciating pain during a hospital visit.

Sanders has previously opened up about the complications he experienced after going under the knife to fix a dislocated toe ... but previously did not disclose much more details.

Now, we know just how serious it was.

"A lot is still to be determined, but he's gonna have a procedure done a little later today," the doctor says in the clip.

"You could lose your leg."

BTW -- Sanders still doesn't know exactly how it happened ... but has been documenting a lot of the process on social media.

@deionsanders / Instagram

The next batch of episodes of Sanders' show will drop starting Feb. 22 ... and will also feature the past football season and an inside look at how JSU landed top recruit Travis Hunter.

"'Coach Prime' is back and I'm ELATED to share this project with you all because WE DON'T HOLD BACK," Sanders says.

"All season, we've been getting questions about what really went down at Jackson State this fall ... We're going to clear up the rumors, set the record straight and always keep it 100% with you."

The extended trailer for "Coach Prime" will drop during Barstool's Super Bowl Live Stream on Sunday.

"I PROMISE you will get nothing but the TRUTH in this action-packed, all-access look at our CHAMPIONSHIP program," Prime added. "Get ready and put your seatbelts on. I BELIEVE!"

Simone Biles Steamy Lap Dance At Las Vegas Show ... Phew!!!

MAGIC DANCE

Jonathan Owens, shield your eyes ...

Simone Biles received a lap dance on stage at a "Magic Mike Live" show in Las Vegas on Thursday night ... and video of it, obtained by TMZ Sports, is STEAMY!!

The gymnastics star took in the performance at SAHARA Las Vegas ... when about mid-way through the act, she was pulled on stage with another woman.

It didn't take long for the shirtless dancers to rope the two ladies into their bit -- 'cause the guys grinded all over the girls ... and, at one point, one of them even picked up Biles and took her to the floor.

The whole routine lasted about two minutes -- and it featured tons of gyrating, lots of hip thrusting, and plenty of touching.

Biles played along with it all and seemed to be having a great time -- she even posed for a picture with the dancers after the show.

No word yet on Owens' thoughts on it all -- but he and Biles have both said they're madly in love with each other, so we're pretty sure the football player ain't stressing over this.

In the meantime, keep enjoying Vegas, Simone!

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Of course, Kane and Teigen aren't shy about their affection -- as we previously reported, EK posted a love note on an L.A. billboard for Mara ... after the two had split over friction in the relationship.

Congrats!!!

UFC Star Israel Adesanya Staunchly Defends Joe Rogan ... 'That's My N***a'

"F*** THE NOISE"
UFC

UFC star Israel Adesanya is clearly tired of the Joe Rogan criticism -- 'cause the fighter staunchly defended the famous podcaster at a media event Thursday, and he actually used the n-word to cap his point.

Izzy's passionate defense of the UFC commentator came after a reporter asked Dana White during the UFC 271 press conference about all of the controversies that surrounded the comedian recently.

Adesanya wouldn't even let White answer the question -- interjecting almost immediately by saying, "I'm Black, I can take this one."

"I've been in this fight game since 2008," Adesanya said, "and Joe Rogan is one of the nicest, coolest, humble motherf***ers I've had the pleasure of working with. Understand that."

Adesanya continued, "You know what they're trying to do. You can't control the man and he's got the biggest platform in the world right now. So, that's my n***a, Joe Rogan."

FYI, Izzy and Rogan are buddies ... and the UFC champ has been on the JRE podcast in the past.

Rogan has come under fire in the last few weeks due to controversial guests he's had on his podcast and for his previous use of the n-word.

Joe apologized -- and even ripped himself in a stand-up comedy act earlier this month. However, he's also called the push to de-platform him a "political hit job."

Izzy, though, clearly believes Rogan has nothing to be sorry for ... and said his advice to the guy is plain and simple: "F*** the noise."

"Just keep doing you, Joe," he added. "Have some mushrooms. Just keep doing you."

Logan Paul I'm Suing Floyd Mayweather ... 'He's a F***ing Scumbag'

021122_logan_paul_kal FEB 2022
FLOYD THE FLAKE
TMZSports.com

Logan Paul is taking his rivalry with Floyd Mayweather to the courtroom -- the YouTube superstar tells TMZ Sports he's planning to sue the legend ... claiming he still hasn't gotten paid for their exhibition fight in June.

Logan has been vocal claiming he hasn't gotten a dime from the 50-0 boxer following their popular bout at Hard Rock Stadium last year ... and he says he's so pissed about the situation, he's going to file a lawsuit.

"It's honestly bulls***," Logan said outside Saddle Ranch on Thursday. "Like, having people who aren't a professional promotional company control where the money goes, we made that mistake,"

"It's Floyd Mayweather. Before we fought him, we were kind of willing to do whatever. Now after the fact, we're kind of shooting ourselves in the foot because he's a "f***ing scumbag."

FYI -- Floyd has made a killing over the course of his career ... and reportedly made over $300 million for his Conor McGregor fight alone.

The Logan vs. Floyd fight raked in a ton of cash ... but so far, Paul claims he hasn't gotten what he deserves for his involvement.

Logan has a bit of advice for whoever steps in the ring next -- "don't let him control the money."

Paul also says Floyd has hit him up for a rematch ... but his response was simple -- "suck a d***."

The silver lining?? Logan says the Floyd fight was a career highlight ... calling it one of the most incredible experiences of his life.
