Adam 'Pacman' Jones EXPLOSIVE VIDEO NFL Star Appears to Punch Woman In Face
New surveillance footage has surfaced appearing to show NFL star Adam "Pacman" Jones bashing a woman in the face outside of an Ohio nightclub after she seemingly poured a drink on him.
Pacman insists he was merely "protecting himself" during the Wednesday night altercation outside of a Cincinnati nightclub ... and judging from the video, it seems the woman made the first aggressive move.
The footage (around the 1:55 mark) shows a woman reaching over to Pacman with what appears to be a drink in her hand. It seems the woman poured her drink on Jones ... and he reacted by unleashing a punch to her head.
The woman filed a police report accusing Jones of assault -- and earlier today, the Cincinnati Bengals player turned himself in.
Pacman has defended himself on Twitter -- writing, "Just got arrested for protecting myself ... I will not let this break me or change what I have work so hard for ... ."

'Wives' Star Eric Williams WANTED MAN
"Basketball Wives" and former NBA star Eric Williams is about to learn a hard lesson -- babies can cost you your freedom.
A judge just issued an arrest warrant for Williams ... because he's completely blown off a paternity case which required him to both appear and submit a DNA sample.
As TMZ first reported, Williams -- who is in the process of divorcing "Wives" star Jennifer Williams -- was slapped with a paternity suit last year by a woman who claims he knocked her up. The woman's son was born in October, 2011, while he was still living with Jennifer.
Williams has been pretending the case doesn't exist -- he hasn't even hired a lawyer. We're told he's ignored phone calls and texts from the baby mama.
Calls to Williams have not yet been returned. At least he's consistent.

Jordan told cops his stepbrother tried to calm Pia down and she attacked him, punching him and scratching his face.
An hour or 2 passed, and -- according to the police report -- Jordan tried calling 911. He claims Pia tried to take his phone away, choking him in the process.

Thorson pled guilty last month after getting busted for using stolen credit cards. Attorney David Houston is representing him at sentencing in July.
Hof tells TMZ he decided to help because he felt Thorson -- who has stage II colon cancer -- was not getting proper treatment in jail.
Hof says he will put Thorson up at the Bunny Ranch until his sentencing, and make sure he receives his treatments. For cancer ... not the typical ranch treatments.
