He gushes ... "We are used to big events, and we are incredibly excited for [FIFA World Cup]. We know it coincides with the Knicks’ [NBA] Finals run. We know it coincides with July 4, America 250, Taylor Swift’s wedding -- all happening at the same time -- and we are so excited to welcome the world here."

Figurative cash? We asked ... Nope.

The footage is a tough watch ... while fans celebrated the Knicks' historic victory on top of his cab, Noureddine appeared completely heartbroken as he processed the damage happening to his vehicle that helped him make a living for his family in Algeria.

Tyrese Haliburton’s fiancée, Jade Jones, and her girlfriends were all smiles at her Bachelorette party before tragedy struck and one of the guests, Makenzi Kern, died.

As part of his celebration, Hokit went over to Trump and put a chain on him ... which DJT initially embraced, shaking the fighter's hand and giving him a standing ovation.

The ladies of "The View" aren't giving UFC fighter Josh Hokit a pass ... coming together to torch his controversial Michelle Obama remark ... and the reaction it got from the crowd.

She took issue with audience members laughing at Hokit's insult ... and with President Trump appearing to smirk.

We're told filming took place at Crumlin Boxing Club ... McGregor's childhood gym in Dublin ... where he spent roughly six hours in front of the cameras.

Jemele Hill says UFC Freedom 250 was far from a knockout event ... telling us it felt more like a Trump rally than a party for all Americans.

The sports journalist joined us on "TMZ Live" Monday and ripped this weekend's UFC event at the White House.

While Jemele says there were good moments, overall it didn't feel like a "correct" representation of America, telling us ... "Everything about this felt gaudy. It felt narcissistic. It was like Temu Wrestlemania to me."

Jemele brought up Josh Hokit's "disgusting" and transphobic comment about Michelle Obama, noting he has a history of offensive remarks and was still selected to represent Americans through this platform.

Tiger Woods' medical records may soon be part of his DUI case ... prosecutors say they want any documents relating to treatment he received at the hospital after his rollover crash and arrest.

The State Attorney's office in Martin County, Florida, filed a notice of its intent to subpoena medical records from a local hospital in Stuart -- the Cleveland Clinic Martin South -- and they're after anything that has to do with drinking or drugs.

It's hard to tell who initiated the anti-Wemby jab -- it very well could have been Brunson himself. If it wasn't him, the All-Star guard didn't seem to mind at all ... as it came off like a friendly poke, not a full-on declaration of hatred for the 7'4" center.
