Not only is he still alive, but the dude who knocked Suge Knight out cold last year feels so bad about the big man getting beat down for a second time, that he offered to provide Suge with some personal "security" ... for a price.
TMZ ran into a perfectly healthy Greg the Barber yesterday, who told us, "I feel kinda bad for the dude 'cause I killed his reputation ... maybe I can be his security or something."
But two seconds later, he was changin' his tune sayin, "Nah, he ain't got enough dough to pay me ... he ain't gonna write me no bounced check!"
Suge just had to sell his boxers at an auction, so Greg might have a point.

For the second time in 9 months, Suge Knight got his face punched in -- and the alleged ass-beater claims to be Akon's business manager.
It all went down in a private party at the W Hotel in Scottsdale, AZ where Suge was attending a private party for NBA All-Star weekend. Cops say they were called to the scene by hotel security who warned about a brewing fight between two groups in the VIP area.
According to the Scottsdale PD website, when cops arrived, they saw a man punch the victim -- aka Suge -- two times in the head." Officers had to break out the tasers to "quell the fight."
The suspect, Robert Carnes, Jr., was charged with one count of felony aggravated assault -- they ruled it a felony "due to the severity of the victim's injuries." Another man was also arrested and charged with one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct.
According to the Scottsdale PD, "Carnes reported to officers that he is employed as the business manager for singer 'Akon.'"
Suge was transported to a local hospital and treated for facial injuries.
UPDATE: Akon's people tell us, "Akon had already left the party and was in his hotel room at The W when the incident occurred."
UPDATE: Akon's publicist released the following statement about Robert Carnes Jr., the guy accused of beating Suge's ass: "He is not Akon's business manager, David Bolno is. He is with Akon's camp."

Just because Suge Knight got knocked on his ass this weekend, doesn't mean people are just going to start talking smack about him.
Jay-Z and Diddy both dodged our Suge questions going in and out of Butter in NYC last night. When you're over 6' tall and and pushing 350 bills, it takes more than one punch to make people stop being afraid of you.

TMZ has obtained the photos of the man who says he laid the punch heard 'round Los Angeles!
The brawler, who owns a barbershop in L.A., tells us he was playfully arguing with a friend outside the club about money when Suge, who's also friends with the man, misunderstood and thought it was serious. He stepped up to defend his boy -- and that's when the altercation took place. He also says reports he had a weapon are untrue.
Get this -- the barber (he didn't want us to use his name) is only 5'10" and weighs 173 lbs. Suge stands 6'3" and tips the scales at 315 lbs. Dayum!

How many people does it take to carry Suge Knight to his car after he's been laid out?

TMZ has obtained photos of Suge Knight, minutes after someone knocked him out cold at a Hollywood club.
As we first reported, Suge was at Shag nightclub when he began arguing with a man he had been talking with. Our spy overheard Suge say, "I want my money!" Suge and his peeps beat the guy to the ground, but the man landed a right hook on Suge's face, knocking him out for around three minutes.
We obtained these photos of a bloody Suge just after the incident.
Suge was taken to the hospital where LAPD officers arrived, but he refused to file a report.

How the mighty have fallen -- literally! Suge Knight was hit so hard by a man last night, he lost consciousness.
LOCATION: Shag nightclub in Hollywood.
LOWDOWN: A TMZ source was there last night, and witnessed Suge talking to a guy -- and the convo was friendly enough at first. Then it turned. Suge shouted, "I want my money!" Suge then rushed the guy with the help of his posse, and began hitting and kicking him. Get this -- during the fight, Suge put a random guy in a headlock, demanding his cellphone.
THE KNOCKOUT: People outside the club broke up the fight, and as the beatee got up, he landed a right hook to Suge's face, knocking him out cold. We're told Knight was out for nearly three minutes. His peeps then rushed him into a nearby SUV. BTW, after Suge woke up, he began yelling for the phone he had just taken from the random guy.
Just another night in H-Wood, folks.
