According to the court documents obtained by TMZ, Angela Nazario claims she and Fitzgerald had a sexual relationship which resulted in Nazario's pregnancy. She says she is due in January. While Fitzgerald cops to hooking up with Nazario, he is asking that a DNA paternity test be taken after the child is born. Eddie Murphy, is that you?

Nazario is seeking child support from Fitzgerald, which he says he'll provide, if he's determined to be the father. A source close to Nazario says he has asked her to "hide" out in a small Arizona town, and asked her to have an abortion. Fitzgerald also allegedly tried to bribe her with offers of houses and cars, and when she declined, he told her "I don't need this all over the news like Matt Leinart." Oops.

Calls to Fitzgerald's attorney were not immediately returned.

79. This 37 year old WOMAN should have known better than to get herself mixed up with a 24 year old! Goes to show you what she was really looking for...a baby-daddy and the rewards she will be reaping from it...all I can say is that poor child has no chance with a gold digger mommy!

80. I forgot to mention ...that I am much older than him 13 years to be exact. To all you out there that dont understand Men love older woman. Sex is much better and we are confident with our sexuality. We please our partner fully and enjoy being pleased. When I first met my football player I told him I rather be just friends because of the age difference. His respond to that was that younger girls could do nothing for him in the bedroom, and they usually are looking for a player to pay their bills. Older woman are confident, stable and secure. Very attractive to a man. Now that Im pregnant I cant get enough of him and he cant get enough of me. And I would never out him in the media or expose our child to it. This private relationship is only our business. It may not be true love between larry and this woman but before you make your comments on Larrys story. Remember you havent lived in his shoes or the woman.
