Fights

Former 'Voice' runner-up Juliet Simms was taken off an American Airlines flight and handed over to the FBI when she allegedly got into a physical fight with her husband.

Juliet and Andy Biersack were flying from Charlotte to LAX Sunday night when they started feuding in their first class seats. Witnesses tell us Juliet got louder and louder, and then hit Andy in the face. Flight attendants warned them to calm down, but 20 mins later they were at it again ... and had to be separated.

But we're told Juliet -- who nearly won season 2 of "The Voice" -- remained "out of control" and that's when an air marshal handcuffed her. That didn't help to calm her down either ... which is obvious in this video.

Once they landed, LAX cops detained her and handed her off to the FBI ... which had jurisdiction since the fight happened in the air. Law enforcement sources tell us she was questioned and released.

We spoke to Juliet and Andy ... and they're both chalking it up to her boozing too hard after not drinking for several months. He wasn't drinking. They say they're together, and everything's fine. They're cooperating with the FBI investigation.

One strange coincidence ... porn star Mary Carey was sitting in first class too at the time of the fight. Here's her color commentary.

Hollywood movie star Idris Elba is now a REAL LIFE kickboxer after his debut match in the U.K. this weekend -- and his first groupie is none other than Madonna.

Sofia Richie made a scene at Catch Saturday night, with a little scuffle and a little scofflaw-ing.

Sofia's showed up with a dude, who got handsy with a photog.

On their way out, Sofia and crew poured into a waiting SUV ... problem is, there were too many passengers and not enough seatbelts ... a violation of CA law.

18 year olds ... they don't always make the best decisions.

The guy Soulja Boy allegedly threatened to shoot and kill says he can't see his daughter now and it's all Soulja's fault ... so he's suing the rapper.

Skrill Dilly says he's the guy Soulja was talking about when he brandished a gun on camera and said, "I'll kill yo bitch ass." In his lawsuit, Skrill says Soulja actually put a $10,000 bounty on his head. Worst of all, he says his baby mama is refusing to let him near their daughter ... fearing the little girl will get caught in the crossfire.

Skrill says the stress and fear of Soulja gunning for him triggered some medical issues. He was not specific. He's suing for damages and cash to cover his medical expenses.

Soulja Boy has said the gun in the video was fake. We reached out to him about the lawsuit -- no word back.

UFC superstar Michael Bisping has a message for Georges St-Pierre -- I'LL FIGHT YOU WITH ONE ARM!!!!

The middleweight champ was out in Burbank on Friday when he told us what really went down behind the scenes with GSP -- and why the two couldn't get a deal done for UFC 206 in Toronto.

But Bisping's past that now -- he wants a piece of Nick Diaz ... claiming the fight would be PERFECT for 206 and they could both make a ton of money in the process.

Nick ... thoughts????

Olympic judo superstar Kayla Harrison says Ronda Rousey has given her "a lot of help" when it comes to making the transition into MMA -- but the real question ... would she ever take a fight against her old friend?

TMZ Sports spoke with 26-year-old Harrison -- a 2-time Olympic gold medalist in judo -- who says she trained with Rousey every day for 7 years as they fought their way to the top of the sport.

Now, with Harrison signing a contract with the World Series of Fighting -- she says she'll reflect on the advice she got from her old friend as she begins her training.

Dominick Cruz has a message for Cody "No Love" Garbrandt -- he's going to torture him so badly at UFC 207, Cody's going to "beg me" to end the fight.

Cruz -- the reigning UFC bantamweight champ -- joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs Thursday night on FS1) and let the insults fly on his next opponent.

FYI, Cody's 10-0 with 9 knockouts -- and vows to break Cruz's jaw.

Cruz says he's not afraid -- insulted Cody's intelligence -- and then told us why "No Love" will be begging for the champ to put him out of his misery.

Pretty violent stuff.

Miami Dolphins lineman Laremy Tunsil has finally fired back at his stepdad in court -- adamantly denying he attacked Lindsey Miller during an incident last year ... and shouldn't have to pay him a cent.

Miller sued Tunsil back in April -- claiming Tunsil beat him up on June 25, 2015 after he tried to warn the football star about the dangers of hanging out with agents while he was still a college player.

In his suit, Miller claims Tunsil "violently attacked" and "pounded the disabled American veteran severely, striking him with his fists multiple times."

Miller claims it took 4 men to pull the football star off of him. He sued Tunsil for unspecified damages.

But now, Tunsil has finally responded in legal docs of his own -- adamantly denying any sort of violent physical attack.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ Sports, Tunsil doesn't get into the specifics -- but claims Miller is lying and the judge shouldn't award him a penny in damages.

Larsa Pippen told police she was "scared" of Scottie Pippen during an Oct. 4th argument at their home -- in which the NBA star broke his own cell phone out of frustration ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Azealia Banks and Russell Crowe are back to square one -- he said, she said -- because we've learned the surveillance cameras at the Bev Hills Hotel missed the entire confrontation.

Law enforcement sources tell us they've combed through security footage from the hotel, where Azealia claims Russell choked her, called her the n-word and spit on her in the hallway. She told us the video would show him spitting and maybe more.

There are lots of cameras at the hotel capturing what happens in public areas, but not where the confrontation went down.

Azealia filed a battery report against Russell and she actually got an assist from RZA, who was one of the guests in the hotel suite where the party went down. Although he says Azealia was drunk and out of control, he said on "TMZ Live" Russell did indeed spit at her.

The reality is ... Russell will not get in trouble for 2 reasons. First, Azealia doesn't want to press charges against him, and second, the eyewitnesses in the room say she instigated the whole thing by threatening to cut people with glass, and Russell was just trying to restrain her.

Chael Sonnen says Tito Ortiz is so poor, he can't make his Rolls-Royce payments and had the car repossessed last week.

There's just one problem ... Tito just sent us a photo next to the car, giving Chael the bird ... and insisting Chael's full of crap.

Chael made the cash claim on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs Thursday night on FS1) -- while talking smack about the guy he's set to face at Bellator 170 in January.

We reached out to Tito to find out if he really lost his beloved Rolls ... to which Tito replied, "Don't hate the player, hate the game. I fight for real money, he fights for my change."

RZA has broken his silence ... condemning Azealia Banks for the confrontation with Russell Crowe ... claiming Russell was simply trying to prevent her from intentionally cutting another guest with a glass.

RZA came on "TMZ Live" and told us ... Russell did indeed spit at Azealia like she claims, but he didn't choke her ... nor did he hurl the n-word. He also said she was out of control and violent ... and hinted she was wasted.

Tito Ortiz says he's been DREAMING about revenge on Chael Sonnen for roughly 20 years ... ever since Chael "ruined" him during a college wrestling match ... and the time for payback is now.

Tito tells TMZ Sports ... back before they became MMA superstars, the two faced off when Tito was wrestling for Cal State Bakersfield and Chael was an Oregon Duck.

Tito says Chael caught him in a headlock and pinned him, and it "ruined me" -- leaving him wondering if he'd ever get a shot at redemption.

Well, now the time has come ... because the two are facing off at Bellator 170 in January and Tito says he's simply going to bash Sonnen's face in.

Azealia Banks is pissed at RZA for not defending her when Russell Crowe threw her out of his party, and says she's cutting him off for good ... personally and professionally.

Sources close to Banks tell TMZ ... she'd been negotiating a deal to sign with RZA's record label for the past 3 weeks. We're told RZA's rep called her this week about closing the deal, and she made it clear ... the deal is OFF.

52-year-old Bernard Hopkins is jumping back into the ring one last time ... and it's really ONE LAST according to his boss, Oscar De La Hoya ... who says he's making BH promise to hang 'em up FOREVER.

Oscar joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show and announced Hopkins' final fight to the world ... a brawl with 27-year-old knockout artist Joe Smith Jr. set to go down on December 17th.

Question is ... is it REALLY over? Hopkins has been known to beat the hell out of guys half his age ... take some time off ... then beat the hell out of guys half his age again.

De La Hoya says this it it ... telling the crew "I'm having him sign some kind of proclamation saying it's his last fight, at 52 years old, this should be the last fight for him."

Ronda Rousey doesn't have the testicular fortitude to take on Cris Cyborg ... so says Cris herself, who makes it clear she's talking about huevos in the metaphorical way.

Cyborg is pissed that Ronda agreed to fight Amanda Nunes at UFC 207 in December instead of her -- and says it's because Rousey simply lacks the "balls."

"Same way you talk to guys, you have to have the balls," Cyborg said.

"She speak a lot of things about me ... and why she don't fight with me? Man, she don't have (the balls)."
