A brutal knee injury clearly hasn't derailed Mark Zuckerberg's MMA career ... 'cause the Meta honcho was just seen mixing it up on the mats with none other than UFC champ Alex Pereira!

Check out some vids the light heavyweight strap holder posted on his Instagram page on Thursday ... he and Zuck really got after one another in an intense training session.

The guys poured sweat during grappling drills, and Zuckerberg even threw hands at the star fighter in stand-up work.

Kenneth Leland Morgan -- the man who allegedly dressed in a Nazi costume before striking a University of Georgia student with a beer stein -- was denied entrance into the college bar, Cutters, because of the Gestapo uniform, TMZ has learned.

According to a police report, obtained by TMZ ... customers at Cutters say they met Morgan outside the bar, along with bar staff, and told him "he couldn't come in while dressed as a Nazi."

As the argument grew heated, Morgan's alleged victim -- identified as Alexandra Lang -- apparently swiped at his Nazi armband to remove it. According to police, Alexandra moved away from Morgan but witnesses say he responded by pulling her towards him and striking her in the face with "a large glass beer stein."

A pack of pissed-off party girls turned Halloween into a full-on fright fest... exploding into a wild brawl that triggered a police response.

TMZ got the clip -- and it all popped off outside the restroom at the Unruly Agency/Memehouse Productions bash at CBS Studios Saturday night ... where a pirate-clad partygoer was caught shoving a blonde dressed as Buzz Lightyear, who spun around in shock and snapped, "Bro, what the f**?"

Buzz’s sidekick -- rocking a look inspired by Jessie from Toy story -- then came in swinging, smacking the pirate right in the face... only for the pirate to fire back with some serious, adrenaline-fueled shots of her own.

It's safe to say Logan Paul's no longer in his boxing prime -- in fact, his "Impaulsive" co-host Mike Majlak tells TMZ Sports the Maverick's days in the ring are long gone ... that is, unless it's for WWE.

We caught up with the New York Times best-selling author out in L.A. this week, where he told us that his pal Logan's interests are all about wrasslin' these days.

"I think he's going to WWE wrestle for the rest of his life, that's it," Majlak said.

L.A.'s known as the City of Angels ... but not everyone's so nice in this town!

There are always a few knuckleheads hanging out in the nightclubs lining the streets of Hollywood -- many of which don't even exist anymore ... and some of these folks didn't get the memo about asking questions first before throwing punches!

We've put together a timeline of dust-ups we've caught on camera in the past ... check it out just in case you need a refresher about how a fun night out can go south real fast.

Jon Jones may tune in to UFC 321 for the hugely consequential heavyweight fight, but Tom Aspinall ain't at all concerned with Bones' Saturday night plans ... telling TMZ Sports he doesn't give a s*** about the UFC legend!

We talked to the 32-year-old heavyweight champ before his highly anticipated main event fight against 35-year-old Ciryl Gane ... where we talked about everything from his top-ranked opp, to his rival, Jon.

"I couldn't care less [if Jon Jones' wateches], to be honest," Tom told us. "Honestly, he's the last person on my mind this week."

Jake Paul's admittedly nervous for his upcoming tilt with Gervonta Davis, but he tells TMZ Sports he's got a bit of a secret weapon in his corner to help him make sure he's ready -- Shakur Stevenson!

The YouTuber-turned-superstar-fighter revealed to us on Wednesday that Stevenson -- who's had his share of beef with Davis over the years -- is slated to meet with him in just a few days to give him an assist in the ring.

Paul said the two will spar -- and he's hoping it'll get him as prepared as possible for Tank.

Kevin Federline’s getting dragged by folks accusing him of cashing in on ex Britney Spears with his new memoir, "You Thought You Knew" ... but he’s got backup from the last surviving LFO member Brad Fischetti, who says K-Fed’s always been a solid dude.

Brad tells TMZ Kevin was a stand-up guy from the jump, literally, recalling the first time he hit the road with them in 2000, when he jumped in to save him during a random attack ... pulling a guy off who'd blindsided and pummeled Brad.

On top of having his back, Brad says he’s got nothing but good memories of Kevin -- calling him mild-mannered, funny, super personable... and, no surprise here, an incredible dancer.

Jake Paul's bout with Gervonta "Tank" Davis hasn't torpedoed his chances at Anthony Joshua ... so says Eddie Hearn, who tells TMZ Sports talks between the two sides remain ongoing.

El Gallo is slated to enter the ring against the lightweight champ in Miami next month ... but before that spectacle was finalized, there were rumblings he could take on the British superstar.

The Matchroom promoter says there's still hope that fight gets made down the road ... but it really depends on how Paul fares against the much smaller Davis.

Boxing star Danny "Swift" Garcia is looking to end his in-ring career on the highest note ... telling TMZ Sports he wants a knockout in his farewell fight.

Garcia -- a 37-4 super welterweight -- is hanging up his boxing gloves after his October 18th bout against Daniel Gonzalez (22-4) at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Since it's his last hoorah, some might think Garcia will take it easy and ride off into the sunset ... but he insists the scratches and bruises from sparring prove otherwise. In fact, he's gunning for his 22nd career knockout.

Reinier De Ridder may have a new opponent thanks to an injury last month, but there's still a ton on the line for the UFC middleweight contender ... including a massive title fight against Khamzat Chimaev!

RDR says whether he gets to fight for the strap will largely depend on his performance against Brendan Allen in the main event at UFC Fight Night in Vancouver on Saturday.

TMZ Sports spoke with the 4th-ranked 185-pounder about his prospects of fighting Chimaev for the strap ... with a win over the 9th-ranked Allen.

Terence Crawford cemented himself as the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world in his superfight with Canelo Alvarez ... but promoter Eddie Hearn believes there's someone out there with the ability to beat Bud -- Jaron "Boots" Ennis!

TMZ Sports talked to the legendary Matchroom Boxing promoter just days before Eddie's 28-year-old, undefeated fighter takes on Uisma Lima Saturday night in front of his hometown fans in Philadelphia.

While Saturday's bout is significant for several reasons -- including because Boots, 34-0 (with 30 KOs), is stepping up in weight to 154 lbs. for the first time -- Eddie's also keeping an eye on a bunch of big potential future matchups.

Mark Sanchez spent about 20 minutes roaming and, at times, stumbling around downtown Indianapolis before the violent encounter with his alleged victim ... and this new video shows nearly all of his activity.

TMZ Sports obtained surveillance videos tracking the ex-NFL star -- from 12:05 AM, when the alleged victim, Perry Tole, pulled up in his service truck ... to 12:30 AM, when Sanchez fled the scene, bloodied from stab wounds.

When Tole arrives, you see him drive south down the alley ... where, apparently, Sanchez was already on the move. When Tole parks, he's out of camera view, so we don't know if they see each other, but 7 minutes later, Sanchez walks north out of the alley ... stumbling a bit.

Nikola Jokic's brother, Strahinja, was just ordered to 12 months of probation ... over that violent encounter he had with a fan during a 2024 Nuggets playoff game.

According to prosecutors in Denver, a judge setenced Strahinja on Friday ... after he pled guilty to one count of trespassing and one count of disorderly conduct.

The case, of course, was brought against the Jokic bro following the Nuggets vs. Lakers playoff game on April 22, 2024.

9:56 AM PT -- TMZ Sports has learned Raja Jackson pled not guilty to the charges during his hearing on Monday. He's now due back in court in November.

Raja Jackson entered a Los Angeles court on Thursday to face criminal charges related to his attack on Syko Stu ... and he made it clear on his way in, he's not ready to comment on the matter publicly.

TMZ Sports shot Quinton "Rampage" Jackson's son as he walked into the San Fernando Courthouse ... and despite being peppered with questions about his case, Raja remained mum.

Wearing a black shirt, black pants and black tie ... Raja stared ahead as he strolled into the building flanked by men who appeared to be his lawyers.

Raja Jackson has been hit with multiple criminal charges -- including one felony -- over his violent attack on Syko Stu earlier this summer.

Court records TMZ Sports has obtained show Quinton "Rampage" Jackson's son was formally charged in Los Angeles County on Tuesday with one felony count of battery with great bodily injury and one misdemeanor count of battery on a person.

Raja -- who's facing up to seven years behind bars if convicted on the felony count and six additional months if convicted on the misdemeanor -- is due in court for arraignment later this week.
