If Ryan Clark's goal for Monday was to stir things up, mission accomplished ... the former NFL star just kicked a hornet's nest by saying Chris Brown is "more talented" than the legendary Michael Jackson!
Oh, he was immediately ripped for it ... the ex-safety received all sorts of mean comments from Twitter users after he tweeted the controversial statement.
"Chris Brown is more talented than Michael Jackson," Clark said, "there I said it! Have a great week."
"I do not care!! You out CB and MJ in the talent Olympics Chris Brown wins."
The responses RC got were hilarious -- from GIFs to some fans asking Clark if he was drunk or high ... 'cause they couldn't believe a sober mind could come up with such an analogy.
"Drinking early this morning??" one fan said while another said, "Whatever you're sippin on, I need it for later 😂 😂"
Another fan thought Ryan needed a Snickers candy bar ... saying, "I trust you and highly respect you but maybe you are hangry or something! Stay happy!"
Clark -- who currently works for ESPN -- even got ripped by his colleagues ... Marcus Spears hit him with the classic 'how?' GIF. Cowboys writer Clarence Hill Jr. even got in on the fun, responding, "get your boy man".
😬😬😬😬😬
Disclaimer: Zero shade goin' Chris' way ... he's obviously suuuuuper talented.
Boxer Simiso Buthelezi In Coma After Scary Boxing Incident ... Fighting Invisible Opponent
2:48 PM PT -- Troubling news about the condition of boxer Simiso Buthelezi. The fighter is reportedly in a coma, according to his trainer, Bheki Mngomezulu.
The news was shared by South African reporter, Thabiso Mosia.
"There's no change in his condition, he's in a coma, he's not talking, moving or doing anything right now. The doctors say there could be a blood clot on the brain due to a blow to the head," the trainer said.
Mngomezulu also added Buthelezi's family is devastated by the accident ... and is looking for answers.
"This is very tough to take, especially for his family. Simiso has just graduated two weeks ago at UniZulu in Zoology and Botany. The family can't understand why this had to happen because Simiso has a bright future"
8:45 AM PT -- Dr. David Abbasi, orthopedic surgeon and ringside doctor, sent us a video analyzing the scary situation involving Simiso Buthelezi. Dr. Abbasi says the ref made the right decision immediately calling off the fight.
Terrifying moment involving a professional boxer in South Africa ... the previously unbeaten fighter became disoriented and started punching air, as if he saw a fighter that didn't exist.
Video of the incident hit social media on Sunday ... showing Simiso Buthelezi fighting Siphesihle Mntungwa for the WBF African lightweight title. In the 10th round of the fight, Simiso was easily winning, when something went very wrong.
Very scary in South Africa please 🙏🏼 for Simiso Buthelezi (4-1). At 2:43 of the 10th & final round, Siphesihle Mntungwa (7-1-2) falls through the ropes but then Buthelezi appears to lose his understanding of the present situation. Mntungwa takes the WBF African lightweight title pic.twitter.com/YhfCI623LB

A few seconds into the final round, Mntungwa falls through the ropes. When he gets up, the ref tells the men to continue fighting.
However, Buthelezi turns to the referee, and squares up to him, as if he is the opponent. Seeing this happening, the ref shuffles to the side.
Buthelezi then advances to the corner of the ring and starts throwing punches at the air ... as if he were fighting an invisible opponent.
The ref did a great job, sensing something was wrong ... and immediately ended the fight.
Buthelezi was taken to a local hospital where he is reportedly in stable condition.
As for why he had the reaction he did ... that's currently unclear.
Most importantly ... get well soon, Simiso.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Donald's new deal with L.A. contains a $40 million raise. A.D. is now set to make $95 million between now and 2025.
The staggering figure is a record for non-quarterbacks, Rapoport reported.
Of course, Donald is worth every penny, he's a three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year who played a huge role in the Rams' Super Bowl win in February.

Through 127 career games, Donald has logged 98 sacks and 448 combined tackles -- both extremely impressive totals, considering he plays defensive tackle.
Donald had been pondering retirement after the Super Bowl -- but it's clear, the Rams' elite roster and the new loads of cash have drawn him back to the game.

Tom Brady Niece Screams 'LFG' During Huge Game ... QB Loves It!!!
Tom Brady's niece, Maya Brady, just had a monster day at the plate -- smashing 2 home runs and logging 5 RBIs -- and at one point, she screamed "Let's f***ing go" during the big game ... which had the NFL superstar fired up!
The UCLA outfielder -- whose mom is Tom's sister -- proved, yet again, GOAT blood runs thick in the Brady family ... coming through for the Bruins in a must-win game against Oklahoma on Monday morning.
Must run in the family (Sorry mom!). Winner takes all in 20 minutes. LET’S GO! @UCLASoftball pic.twitter.com/RYcI8DQuFM

The centerfielder went yard not once but twice in the contest ... and in one of her trips around the bases -- she used Tom's familiar "Lets f***ing go!" rallying cry.
Of course, Tom was watching -- and he loved it, tweeting out, "Must run in the family (Sorry mom!)."

Tom also praised Maya on his Instagram page during the game, calling her "clutch" and adding, "WAY TO GO MAYA!!"
Maya's huge game propelled UCLA to a 7-3 win ... but she and the Bruins still have to beat OU one more time on Monday afternoon to advance to the Women's College World Series championship.
UCLA is currently down 3-0 in that game ... but Maya's got at least a few more at-bats to try to change that -- and we're sure Tom will be watching each and every one!

Adrien Broner Vows To Be Champion Again ... Calls Out Fake Supporters
Adrien Broner is putting all his fake supporters on notice ... callin' them out for going MIA on him -- and vowing to be a champion again soon enough.
The 32-year-old welterweight made the guarantee in a lengthy post on his social media page Monday morning ... saying he's been "working my ass off alone" the past two and a half months in order to start the journey back to the top.
In the post, Broner -- who's slated to return to the ring on July 23 -- called out everyone who used to be in his corner while he was a rising star in the sport ... saying he's fine with training alone now, as long as everyone keeps "the same energy when I’m back CHAMPION!!!!!!!"
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
"I see a lot of people left me and think I won’t be champion again," Broner said. "Now it’s just me @coachmikestafford and @vithecutman and I wanna keep it this way ain’t no hard feelings to nobody."
"Some of the closest people switched up on me and I’m fine with they decision," Broner added, "cause I know I'm a hustla I started this S*** alone and I’m go finish this s*** alone."
Broner will take on Omar Figueroa (28-2-1) in Chicago in the July matchup ... and it's slated to be his first fight since his controversial win against Jovanie Santiago in February 2021.
Broner has had a rocky road since the victory -- he was famously arrested in October.
But, seems Broner likes where he's at now ... clearly believing he's on the road to many more wins in the ring.

Wild Video Cowboys Lasso Loose Cow ... On Busy OKC Highway
Absolutely wild scene in Oklahoma City on Monday ... a cow got loose on a busy highway -- and two cowboys (not the ones from Dallas!) had to wrangle it in with horses and lassos!!
A news crew's camera in the sky captured the entire incident ... from the pursuit to the moment the cowboys captured the escaped animal.
Two people using vehicles attempted to pin the cow to a fence near the road ... but once that failed, a cowboy riding on his horse sprang into action and took off after the cow with a rope in hand.
COW LOOSE ON OKC HIGHWAY 🐄🤠 Sky 5 was flying over the moments when cowboys and emergency crews wrangled a cow that got loose on a busy Oklahoma City highway. https://t.co/pgZRNirP9R pic.twitter.com/NgnlgqiEEA

The cowboy then threw the lasso out ... and hooked the beast around its neck. A second cowboy came in and lassoed the cow's feet, mercifully bringing the wild chase to an end.
The takedown was heroic -- considering there were cars zooming by at a high rate of speed on the opposite side of the road just feet away.
Still no word yet on how the cow broke loose ... but, fortunately, it appears all parties involved came away from the scene OK.
Phew.

Deshaun Watson QB Facing 24th Lawsuit ... Graphic Allegations

Breaking News

A 24th female masseuse has just filed a lawsuit against Deshaun Watson ... alleging the NFL star was sexually inappropriate with her during a massage session -- and the new allegations are graphic.
In the suit, filed in Harris County, Texas on Monday, Katy Williams claims Watson got in contact with her back in 2020 to set up a professional rubdown.
On Aug. 5, 2020, the woman says she massaged Watson without issue -- and the quarterback gave her $100 for her services.
A few days later, however, Williams says during a second massage session with the QB, which she says took place at her apartment, he became very inappropriate.
Williams claims in the suit that Watson asked her to rub his inner thighs, and then demanded she go higher and higher, which caused her to touch his scrotum.
In the docs, Williams says Watson eventually got an erection, and then stood up and masturbated. She said he ultimately ejaculated, and some of his semen got on her chest and face.
She says in the suit she ran away from Watson into a bathroom to clean herself off -- and claimed when she returned, the 24-year-old "offered no apology or explanation for his conduct."
Williams said in the suit he then paid her $150, and left. She claimed in the docs the incident left her "humiliated and traumatized."
She added that she quit massage therapy a short time later. She's asking for damages in the suit.
Williams' attorney, Tony Buzbee -- who's representing Williams and 23 other women in the civil cases against Watson -- said in a statement of the new lawsuit on Monday, "Our entire team is incredibly proud to represent these women, and we look forward to the day when we can lay out their cases in detail in front of a jury."
Watson, as we've reported, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing ... saying at his Browns introductory press conference earlier this year, "I never assaulted any woman, I never disrespected any woman."

Two of the best moments in Sean McVay's 2022 have now featured a Lombardi Trophy ... 'cause just four months after he lifted the prize at the Super Bowl, he ate a cake in the shape of one at his wedding!
The L.A. Rams head coach finally tied the knot with his longtime model girlfriend, Veronika Khomyn, with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony in Beverly Hills this weekend ... and, at one point during the proceedings, he got to munch on a Lombardi cake!
The 36-year-old, wearing a sweet white tuxedo, took a big bite out of the pastry -- and then the crowd around him cheered as he fist-pumped.
As for the rest of the wedding, it looked amazing -- Khomyn walked down the aisle in a beautiful white gown, while dozens of guests looked on.
At the reception, McVay and Khomyn danced the night away ... and the two even jumped onstage and sang with the live band.
The good-looking couple met way back when McVay was working for the Commanders ... and she was a student at George Mason University.
McVay proposed to Khomyn in 2019 prior to becoming the youngest coach to win the Super Bowl in February 2022.
"I've watched this guy grind nonstop. Day in and day out. No breaks," Kohmyn said on IG after the Super Bowl LVI win.
"He always puts everyone else first, and winning this Lombardi trophy for his team, his family, his friends… is a dream come true!!!"
"I love you babe, you deserve this times a million. Victory tastes pretty damn good!"

Cody Rhodes is built different ... the son of WWE Hall of Famer, Dusty, defeated Seth Rollins in a "Hell in a Cell" match after tearing his pectoral muscle earlier in the day.
WWE announced the news on its "Hell in a Cell" kickoff show ... saying Cody had his right pectoral tendon "completely torn off the bone while weight training."
Still, the 36-year-old wrestling star proceeded to fight Seth ... inside, arguably, the most dangerous match in WWE history.
As the match was about to start, Rhodes took off his robe ... showing off the gruesome injury.
"For the love of the game." - @CodyRhodes #HIAC pic.twitter.com/3bHlLl5UB9
— WWE (@WWE) June 6, 2022 @WWE
Fans were astonished at how bad Rhodes' injury appeared -- his pec was severely discolored and jarring to the eyes -- but that didn't stop Rollins from laughing at the injury and targeting the area during the match.
Cody even took a kendo stick right on the pec ... leaving him writhing in pain (maybe part of the show, maybe not).
Regardless, fans were super appreciative of Rhodes ... and gave him a standing ovation for the tenacity and resiliency after delivering 3 Cross Rhodes finishers to secure the victory.
Unclear how much, if any, time the former intercontinental champion will miss ... but Cody is expected to address the injury tonight on "Monday Night Raw."

Michael B. Jordan Hits NBA Finals Game After Lori Harvey Split
Michael B. Jordan turned to Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Jayson Tatum to help get his mind off his recent split with Lori Harvey ... hitting up the Celtics-Warriors Finals game on Sunday night.
The 35-year-old "Creed" star sat courtside at the Chase Center for Game 2 of the series next to his good buddy Cordae ... roughly 24 hours after it was reported the actor and Harvey had called things off.

The two dated for over a year -- and cameras appeared to pick up signs from Jordan that he wasn't feeling too hot after the breakup.
His eyes looked watery, and many on social media noticed his mega-watt smile wasn't as bright.
The dude, though, did at least have a great performance from the Dubs to distract him if he was feeling down -- Curry scored 29 points, and Golden State blew out the Celtics, 107-88.
Game 3 tips off on Wednesday ... but it's in Boston, meaning if Jordan is looking for another NBA distraction this week, he'll have to hop on a lengthy plane ride to get it.
Maybe just Netflix, the couch and some ice cream will be the better route for the time being?

Gisele Films Tom Brady In His Undies ... 'Hey New Underwear!!!'
Gisele just gave us all a glimpse of Tom Brady that we've never seen before ... showing video of the greatest of all-time in nothing but his undies!!!
The supermodel just posted video of her hubby in a bathroom on her social media page, showin' off his fit bod and his latest Brady Brand boxer briefs.
Tom appears to be timid in the clip -- but Gisele was clearly loving putting him on camera, asking the Tampa Bay Buccaneers star about his skivvies over and over again in the quick vid.
"Hey new underwear!" Gisele said while laughing. "Let me see. Let me see your new underwear. Is that Brady Brand?!"
Tom, with some sly hand placement to make sure the camera didn't capture too much of his body, eventually threw a towel over his wife's phone -- before the video ended.
As you know ... Brady ventured into the retail industry at the beginning of this year when he launched his own Brady Brand clothing line, and it seems the next item he's lookin' to hawk is underwear.
And, hey, if you look half as good as the 44-year-old, 7-time Super Bowl champ does in them ... might be worth the investment??

Jay Cutler's getting one-upped in the post-divorce celebration department by his ex Kristin Cavallari ... who says Jay's got a lot of catching up to do, and also hints he's already violated their settlement.
We caught up with Kristin at LAX, and asked for her thoughts on finalizing the divorce from the ex-NFL star ... who commented about it this week on his "Uncut with Jay Cutler" podcast. Jay boasted about his bank account not really taking a hit in their divorce, and added, "When the settlement came through, I threw a party."
Well, Kristin was pretty much mum to our camera guy on the settlement. In fact, she told us she doesn't think she's allowed to discuss it ... hinting there's a non-disclosure agreement and Jay shouldn't be blabbing either.
Now, as for Jay being in party mode -- well Kristin didn't hold back on that topic. We asked if she'll throw her own post-divorce bash, and she said "I've been partying for 2 years straight" ... a not-so-subtle reference to the divorce filing in April 2020.
You'll recall ... Kristin and Jay called it quits after a decade-long relationship that started after they met at a Chicago Bears preseason game. They got married 3 years later and had 3 kids.
Now that it's over, sounds like they're both celebrating good times.

Bodybuilder Calum von Moger Reveals Gruesome Injuries ... Suffered In Near-Death Fall
Bodybuilding star Calum von Moger just revealed some of the injuries he suffered in a near-death fall last month ... showing he was battered, bruised, scarred and deeply cut on nearly every part of his body.
Posting on his social media page this weekend for the first time since he reportedly crashed through a second-story window in early May ... von Moger showed his body went through hell.
In a video the 31-year-old took from his hospital bed, you can see he required stitches to close wounds on his hands and arms, and also needed bandages all over as well.
von Moger, who reportedly suffered a spine injury in the fall that was so severe it had him in a medically induced coma, also showed a photo of a huge scar on the middle of his back.
"What waking up from a bad dream looks like..." he wrote in the caption on the video.
von Moger added that "it's nice to be alive" ... and thanked all his fans for their "well wishes and prayers" while he was in the hospital.
von Moger, according to reports, returned home from the medical facility in late May -- a few weeks after the fall -- and he was reportedly seen there walking without any assistance.
The former Mr. Universe, who also played a young Arnold Schwarzenegger in the '18 flick "Bigger," did say in an Instagram story, though, that he still has a "long road ahead to recover from this one."
Get well soon, Calum.

LeBron James Triple Logoman Card Hits Auction ... Could Fetch Over $6.6 Mil

A one-of-a-kind LeBron James Triple Logoman card -- which many experts consider the most coveted modern collectible in the world -- is hitting the auction block ... and we're told it could sell for OVER $6 MILLION!!
TMZ Sports has learned that the card, which features 3 NBA logo patches from jerseys worn by the King, is expected to rival the all-time record of $6.6 million -- which a wealthy collector paid for a Honus Wagner T-206 card -- when it hits the block at Goldin Auctions on June 8.
Just the fact the Bron card is being talked about in the same breath as the T-206 Wagner -- considered the "Holy Grail" of trading cards -- is pretty incredible, but to think the Logoman could go for nearly $7 million is insane.
“The LeBron James Triple Logoman card is the undisputed holy grail of modern cards,” said Goldin founder Ken Goldin.
The three NBA logo patches on the front of the card come from a Cavaliers, Heat, and Lakers jersey ... each of James' three teams.
Triple Logoman cards are super rare ... only five were made by Panini as part of their 2020-21 "Flawless" collection. Only one LeBron TL exists.
The back of the card features a small certificate of authenticity ... and details LBJ's four NBA titles.
How badly do collectors want the card? Drake purchased 10 cases (at $46K each) as he attempted to track down the Triple Logoman Bron.
Drizzy -- who has gotten heavy into card collecting -- pulled several Michael Jordan rookie cards, but unfortunately, no dice on the LeBron.
Of course, if the Certified Lover Boy artist really wants it ... bidding starts Wednesday!!
