Soulja Boy is backpedaling on wanting to fight Kai Cenat ... but if the two were to ever enter the boxing ring together, the rapper tells TMZ Sports it would be an easy victory!!

The 36-year-old artist and entrepreneur recently went to X to issue his initial callout ... apparently the result of getting snubbed from Cenat's Streamer University, a popular training experience for content creators.

Soulja unleashed on Cenat over it all ... saying, "I challenge yo short p**** ass to a boxing match weak ass n**** @KaiCenat," and some other not-so-nice things.

Adrien Broner is firing back at his alleged sexual battery victim … claiming her "one-sided" lawsuit is full of "unproven allegations" ... TMZ has learned.

The boxer's lawyer, Richard L. Cooper, tells TMZ ... "We are aware of the civil complaint that has been filed. Mr. Broner unequivocally denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend himself in court."

Adrien's lawyer said he was confident the facts and evidence will show the claims are without merit. He asked that the public not jump to conclusions and wait for the outcome in court.

Le'Veon Bell is finally outta the slammer after getting arrested for missed child support payments last week ... and he's vowing to never return.

The former Pittsburgh Steelers star went to social media to share a "first day out" video as he walked out of the Kent County Correctional Facility in Michigan on Wednesday ... and he was quite pleased.

"We f***in' free!!" the 34-year-old said in the clip. "We out!!"

N3on and Ryan Garcia traded streaming and sparring for soap and suds ... teaming up with influencers Wendy and Evelyn Ortiz for a charity car wash benefiting families torn apart by ICE.

TMZ cameras were on the scene Saturday in Bellflower, where N3on got his hands dirty scrubbing cars while wearing an “I.C.E OUT” T-shirt.

Ryan pulled up about a minute later looking ready for a completely different kind of fight ... arriving with a championship belt draped over his shoulder.

The boxer also put his money where his mouth is ... peeling off a stack of cash and handing it over as a donation to the cause ... while the Ortiz twins helped keep the event rolling as cars cycled through and supporters gathered to pitch in.

Adrien Broner was streaming with DeenTheGreat when he learned in real-time a woman was taking him to court over an alleged sexual battery, TMZ has learned.

The former boxer was live streaming Thursday when an associate flagged to him TMZ's exclusive about the lawsuit. Adrien and his friends didn't seem to be too concerned with the former boxer and pals making jokes about the situation.

As TMZ first reported, a woman named Havana Saint claimed she was encouraged to drink heavily at an after-party on June 2, and Adrien let her stay at his place for the night when she was too drunk to drive home. At some point during the night, Havana says Adrien tried forcing sex on her -- including "sexual intercourse, oral sex and a hand job" -- and alleged he exposed his genitals to her and tried forcing her hand on them.

Adrien Broner -- the former boxer who won multiple titles at different weight classes -- is being sued for sexual battery ... TMZ has learned.

A woman named Havana Saint is suing Broner ... claiming he invited her and her friends to an after-party on June 2, 2026, where he encouraged her to drink heavily.

In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Saint says she got too drunk to drive home ... and she took Broner up on an offer to stay at the home where the after-party took place.

While she was staying at his home, Saint claims Broner tried pressuring her into performing sexual acts with him ... including "sexual intercourse, oral sex and a hand job." She says he also exposed his genitals to her and grabbed her hand to try to force her to engage.

Mike Tyson is changing his tune on the whole "legacy" conversation ... saying he now knows how he wants to be remembered, and it's got little to do with his brilliance in the ring!

The boxing legend chopped it up with Babcock about his second Mike Tyson Invitational amateur boxing showcase going down at SAHARA Las Vegas (fights stream here), where hundreds of young fighters get to display their skills in front of trainers, scouts, and Iron Mike himself.

Tyson dropped a bombshell during the convo -- explaining this is what he wants to be remembered for.

“This is my legacy, God willing,” Tyson said. “I want this to be my legacy.”

Former Pittsburgh Steelers star running back Le'Veon Bell was busted over the weekend ... and it's connected to child support payments, or an alleged lack thereof.

Le'Veon's attorney, Thomas Shaffer, tells TMZ ... Le'Veon did not make support payments, which are based on a healthy NFL salary -- a salary he's not earned in years.

Shaffer notes the support guidelines by law are based on current income, not his NFL salary, so computing these guidelines on inaccurate information is unfair.

Le'Veon allegedly owes more than $50,000 for child support.

The child in question lives in Michigan ... which is why the Michigan Attorney General has the case.

Devin Haney and his baby mama, Leena Sayed, hammered out a custody agreement ... and in the process, the boxer revealed his massive monthly income.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Devin agreed to pay Leena $20,000 a month in child support ... a figure they say was based on Devin's monthly earnings of $435,699.

The exes also agreed to joint legal and physical custody of their one-year-old daughter, Khrome ... though Devin must have a professional nanny or his mother around when he's watching the kid ... at least until she's 3.

Edgar Berlanga has huge plans for the future, and it goes beyond simply winning belts in the boxing ring ... telling TMZ Sports he gunning for the silver screen, and maybe even a different kind of ring.

The 29-year-old star boxer from Brooklyn chopped it up with Babcock this week ... where he was promoting his July 26th bout against Steven Butler at Madison Square Garden.

The knockout specialist recently signed with Dana White's Zuffa Boxing ... and part of the reason why was the UFC honcho's ability to create stars.

Well, that was fast. Conor McGregor's much anticipated comeback lasted about one minute after a leg injury stopped the fight.

The former UFC featherweight champ went toe-to-toe with Max Holloway after a five-year hiatus at the UFC 329 main event in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Right from the get-go, Conor was having major issues, jumping into the air to give a roundhouse kick, but he fell to the floor. He popped back up and tried the kick again, but only got the same results.

Conor McGregor ain't the only one buyin' Mick's "women weaken legs" motto ... 'cause boxing star Rolly Romero says he too has sworn off gettin' busy in the bedroom!

"I haven't had sex since June 4, 2025. Over a year. I gave up sex til marriage. My body reserved for my wife, that the Lord Jesus will deliver to me. I gave it up completely til marriage," RR told us at an event in Los Angeles this week.

Of course, McGregor shocked fans this week when he said he not only hasn't knocked boots, but he's sworn off any sexual touching completely in preparation for his fight against Max Holloway.

Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather was one of the biggest fights of all time ... and well, the encore could be coming to a ring near you sometime in the future!

"Yeah, for sure [I'm interested in a rematch]," The Notorious told Babcock, before gesturing with his hands and saying, "I'm like this with Floyd. I'm like this with little Floyd."

McGregor added ... "There's conversations ongoing always with the boy. That's the truth. So, I'm open for it."

Too young, lacks experience, not enough power ... are all criticisms Xander Zayas has heard leading up to his huge fight with Jaron "Boots" Ennis, but the boxing star says he's unfazed, promising a big performance next weekend in Brooklyn!

The 23-year-old unified super welterweight champ chopped it up with TMZ Sports ahead of the June 27th scrap at Barclays, pitting the two undefeated fighters against each other ... and Zayas admits the high stakes make this one more special.

"I feel like every fight is important and I've always given that importance to every fight. Obviously, this one is a bit different because you have undefeated fighters that are well known in the boxing world and in the athletic world so I feel like it's exciting," Xander told us.

Francis Ngannou and Rico Verhoeven were both combat sports stars who went into boxing and were arguably screwed by bad decisions ... and now both fighters could find themselves in a ring together, according to The Predator!

TMZ Sports talked to 39-year-old Ngannou, coming off a first-round knockout against Philipe Lins, when we asked him about his next move.

"[Rico] is very compelling. Very interesting. But nothing has been done yet, so I'm looking forward to it," Francis told us.

Talk about knockouts! OnlyFans girls Karina Petrova and Alexandra Svensson are going from queen mattresses to queens of the ring ... because they're gearing up for their Knockout Queen match-ups!

They hit an L.A. gym in wearing only tight shorts and skimpy sports bras to train with MMA athlete and Knockout Queen commentator Blake "Bulletproof" Troop.

The gorgeous gals glove up and face off in the ring for some sexy sparring ... but their actual fights won't be with each other.
