CM Punk Gets $1 Mil Offer to Return to Wrestling

Published | Updated

CM Punk’s about that MMA life these days, but there’s a cool $1 mil on the table if he’s willing to return to the wrestling ring.

It's not Vince McMahon offering the dough -- "The Best in the World" is being targeted by an organization in the UK.

"We want to offer CM Punk $1 million dollars to come and join the 5 Star Wrestling tour," founder Daniel Hinkles told The Sun. "It’s a genuine offer ... we want to do this with him."

Hinkles says the tour is a 128-man tournament. No word on how many days Punk would have to work to collect the million dollar check.

And get this, Hinkles says the deal would allow Punk to continue to pursue his MMA career.

"This wouldn’t have to end that, but wrestling is in his blood and $1 million has to be worth thinking about."

True that.

Tim Tebow Surprises 'Inspirational' Fan with Prom Dance

Another amazing moment from Tim Tebow -- this time, he surprised an "inspirational" special needs fan by asking her to slow dance on "The Tonight Show."

The whole thing is great ... Tebow was talking to Jimmy Fallon about his annual "Night to Shine" event (a prom-style event for special needs kids all over the world) when he pulled a fan out of the crowd!

Turns out the fan is Judy Adams -- who had invited Tim to be her date to the event, but a travel conflict kept Tebow from accepting her offer.

Ex-Chargers Security Guard Pleads Guilty In Stadium Masturbation Case

He will NOT have to register as a sex offender.

Amanda Nunes: I'm Better Than Jedrzejczyk ... & My GF Can Beat Her

Published | Updated

Amanda Nunes says there's no doubt she's the best female fighter in the world -- not Joanna Jedrzejczyk -- and she's 100% confident her girlfriend can beat the strawweight champ.

Amanda and Joanna are dominating the women's division in the UFC -- but likely won't fight each other because they're in different weight classes.

But, Amanda's GF, Nina Ansaroff, is right in Joanna's wheelhouse -- in fact, they both train at the American Top Team gym.

Nina says she's not intimidated by Joanna's impressive undefeated MMA record -- and tells TMZ Sports straight-up, "I can beat her."

Nina has to climb the ranks before she gets a chance to back up her talk -- but she's convinced it's just a matter of time before she fights for the title.

The "Type of Way" rapper was at LAX when he checked out the Olympic gymnast's racy butt video -- the one some people thought was so racy, it must have been hacked (don't worry, it wasn't).

"I don't think it's a bad thing," Quan says ... "I respect her for doing it."

McKayla has said she wants to be a pop star.

So ... collaboration???

So, we went right to the champ to get an explanation and he spilled the beans ... even telling us which UFC superstar first introduced him to the term.

We also asked Cormier if he thinks Jones will stay clean long enough to make it to their showdown at UFC 214 on July 29th.

KEEP IT ZIPPED

Terry Bradshaw says Gisele hung Tom Brady out to dry by talking about his alleged concussions on national TV ... telling TMZ Sports, "My wife would never say that."

In fact, Terry suspects Tom is really upset over the situation -- "I would imagine someone's having a talk with somebody."

"I don't know why she would say that," Bradshaw added ... while explaining that when it comes to private health matters, it's not up to the spouse to share that information with the world.

"That's my wife right there and she'd never say a word," Terry said pointing to Tammy.

Terry's wife says it's not a black and white issue ... it's complicated.

The good news ... Terry's confident Tom and Gisele will ultimately work things out.

NFL Calls BS On Gisele No Evidence Tom Brady Suffered Concussion

Published | Updated

The NFL is disputing Gisele's claims that Tom Brady secretly suffered a concussion during the 2016 season ... saying there's no evidence the Patriots QB suffered any sort of head injury.

NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy just issued a statement saying, "We have reviewed all reports relating to Tom Brady from the unaffiliated neurotrauma consultants and certified athletic trainer spotters who worked at Patriots' home and away 2016 season games as well as club injury reports that were sent to the league office."

"There are no records that indicate that Mr. Brady suffered a head injury or concussion, or exhibited or complained of concussion symptoms."

"Today we have been in contact with the NFLPA and will work together to gather more information from the club's medical staff and Mr. Brady."

"The health and safety of our players is our foremost priority and we want to ensure that all our players have and continue to receive the best care possible."

The NFL isn't directly saying Gisele lied during an appearance on "CBS This Morning" -- but they're certainly mounting the case against her.

UFC's Demetrious Johnson Blasts Rousey You Lost, 'Grow the F*** Up'

Published | Updated

UFC superstar Demetrious Johnson has some tough love for Ronda Rousey -- "You got your ass beat, grow the f*ck up."

Johnson has won 12 straight fights -- but says if he does get defeated, he does NOT want to handle the loss the way Ronda did after getting her face kicked in by Holly Holm.

"You look at Ronda Rousey. You got your ass beat, grow the f*ck up," DJ told Sports Illustrated ... "It happens. It's mixed martial arts. I don't want to be like that. If I lose, I'll be like, I lost."

Ronda essentially went into hiding for months before taking a fight more than a year later.

"Everybody f*cking loses. It's part of the sport. Grow up. Look, Ronda, you lost two f*cking fights in a row, and you made more f*cking money than the women's roster."

Johnson's referring to the $3 mil (plus PPV revenue) Ronda banked for UFC 207 -- the fight where she got crushed by Amanda Nunes and then blew off the post-fight news conference.

Johnson did have some nice parting words for Ronda, who’s off planning her wedding right now. “You'll be fine, don't worry about it."

LOTS OF SPECULATION

Shaq says the Lakers shouldn't let LaVar Ball scare them off from taking Lonzo Ball with their #2 pic ... 'cause despite the media circus that follows the Big Baller, his kid's game is "fabulous."

The Big Diesel hasn't always been the biggest fan of the Ball clan -- he publicly dissed the price of Lonzo's new shoe ... saying $495 was way too much for kids to pay.

That was then ... because O'Neal had nothing but kind words to say about Zo when we got him out in NYC, telling our guy he's not sure what the Lake Show will do with the pick, but Ball isn't a bad idea.

So, LaVar ... truce?

'Concussion' Dr. Bennet Omalu Gisele Is 'Angelic' For Revealing Tom Brady Injury

Published | Updated

Gisele is a heroic whistle-blower who did an "angelic" thing by going public with Tom Brady's secret concussion history ... so says the doctor who discovered CTE, Bennet Omalu.

Omalu is the real life person that inspired the movie "Concussion" -- he was famously played by Will Smith. He also wrote the book, 'Truth Doesn't Have a Side' about the dangers of contact sports.

So, how did he react when he saw Gisele finally reveal Tom's concussion history on television? He praised her.

"I believe it is something angelic to speak up," Omalu says ... "She's an angel. An angel of truth and an angel of love."

He added, "The truth will always prevail. We should not be afraid of the truth because of the inconvenience of the truth. But when we embrace the truth, just like Gisele has done, the truth is empowering, is enlightening and is vindicating."

"So, [Gisele] is my hero."

Tom Brady NFLPA 'Looking Into' Concussion Claim

Published | Updated

The NFL Players Association is "looking into" the statements made by Gisele about Tom Brady suffering a concussion last year that was not reported in NFL injury reports.

After Gisele appeared on "CBS This Morning" and told Charlie Rose about Tom's secret history of concussions ... we reached out to the NFLPA for comment.

We were told, "Right now, we have no official statement, but we are looking into."

Gisele's comments have sparked all sorts of questions -- with people wondering if Tom or the Patriots intentionally hid the information from the NFL so Tom wouldn't have to miss game time.

We've also reached out to Tom and the Patriots for comment -- so far, no official comments from either camp.
