Jake Paul Is Lying About Floyd Mayweather Miami Incident, Says Floyd’s Jeweler

by

Floyd Mayweather’s jeweler Shuki International said that Jake Paul is lying about their recent altercation in Miami. For those unaware, the two rivals ran into each other after a Miami Heat game and exchanged words- almost punches. On Paul’s side of the story, he said that Floyd and 50 people from his entourage waited to confront the social media provocateur outside the stadium. Upon seeing the large crowd, he says that he ran because it was too many to fight, while fronting that it’s not that he was scared. However, given that Shuki was there at the time of the incident, he said things were actually much different.

“Jake is exaggerating,” the jeweler told TMZ in an exclusive clip. Also, he claimed that neither the boxer nor his crew sought out Paul, chalking up the crossover to a complete coincidence. “We just finished the game, pulled out, and Jake was there. Floyd was with his eight bodyguards. And [Jake] just run like a rabbit.” The feud seems to not be slowing down anytime soon, especially given Paul doubling down on it.

“I’m tough,” he said while responding to coverage of the incident and explaining his perspective and account. “I don’t need to prove my toughness, but I’m not f***ing dumb. I’m not gonna sit there and try to fight 50 dudes.” Furthermore, he claims that he fled because he was responding to acts, appearances, or threats of aggression. Still, from Shuki’s tale, it seems that he might’ve just spotted Floyd and ran away to avoid a larger confrontation.

Despite that, the jeweler actually suggested that there are some unpaid debts when it comes to their feud. Moreover, he seemed to suggest that the coincidental encounters could become maliciously planned if Paul doesn’t apologize. “He’s gotta do the right thing,” he told TMZ, affirming that Floyd still has beef with Paul for stealing his hat. “He’s gotta respect the world champion.” Whatever happens next, Shuki seems to be trying to tell us that this was just the beginning. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul.

Jake Paul Trainer BJ Flores Shot During Robbery

by

Jake Paul has had a large team around him ever since breaking into the fight game. One of the people that has stood by him during this time is his trainer, BJ Flores. Overall, Flores has done a great job with Jake. Although Paul lost his last fight, there is no doubt that Flores has been able to turn Jake into a bonafide fighter. It isn’t easy getting a former YouTube star prepared for the ring, however, he has managed to do it, which is definitely worthy of some praise.

Unfortunately, Flores went through a very scary experience while out in Medellin, Colombia recently. Essentially, Flores was in the passenger seat of a car when he was simply stopped at a light. Subsequently, two armed men with motorcycles approached the car and pointed a gun at him. These men were trying to get his watch and his wallet, although they were unsuccessful. However, Flores was shot in the thigh. This forced him to rush to the hospital.

BJ Flores Speaks Out

“They shot me one time in the leg and I defended myself the best way I could,” Flores explained. Consequently, Flores will now have to get surgery on his leg. As you can see in the video above, courtesy of TMZ, Flores has a bullet lodged in his thigh. This is incredibly scary, however, it seems like he is going to be okay. “Thank you for the well wishes,” Flores said on Instagram. “I will learn from this….. Be safe out there please. Life is precious. I love you all.” At this time, Jake Paul has not given any commentary on what took place.

Traveling to South America can be quite dangerous. Colombia is known for these kinds of occurrences, and it is always important for people to stay safe while traveling. Central and South America have actually received numerous “do not travel” advisories as of late. This is due to growing tensions between the cartel and local governments. Be sure to keep it locked to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.

Le’Veon Bell Shows Off Wild Boxing Workout: Watch

by

Le’Veon Bell was at one time one of the best running backs in the entire NFL. However, following his holdout debacle with the Steelers, he regressed. Subsequently, he found himself out of the league just a few years later. Ultimately, this is something we see a lot with running backs these days. The position is being phased out of offenses, and there is very little leverage for a running back. That said, Bell is an athletic guy who can excel in various different sports.

Over the last few months, Bell has been engaged in the world of boxing. Overall, this is a very common theme these days. When you fizzle out of your main sport, you go to boxing for a series of exhibitions where you can make a lot of money. Bell has already beaten guys like Adrian Peterson, and he has even fought Uriah Hall. Now, however, Bell is set to face off against YouTuber JMX on April 21st. It is a fight that will determine whether or not he truly has a future in the sport.

Le’Veon Bell Takes A Whole Lot Of Punishment

According to TMZ, Bell has been training exceptionally hard for this upcoming fight. In the video above, which was posted to his Instagram story, you can see that he is engaging in some intense and insane workouts. For instance, you can see an exercise ball being dropped on his abs. Overall, this looks extremely painful, and Bell could feel the full extent of that pain. He was grimacing and making noises which is evidence that he was extremely uncomfortable. Needless to say, he wants to win this fight real bad.

Boxing workouts are some of the most intense in the sports world. Ultimately, it seems like Bell wants to practice taking body shots, and this is his way of doing it. Although it may look unnecessary, in his mind, this is how he is going to win against his next opponent. You can let us know what you think of this wild workout, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Francis Ngannou Reveals Plans For Deontay Wilder Fight

by

Francis Ngannou used to be the heavyweight champion of the UFC. However, that title now belongs to none other than Jon Jones. Jones defeated Ciryl Gane for the title, as Ngannou had previously been dropped by the UFC. Although Ngannou was willing to stay in the UFC, Dana White didn’t seem too eager to pay him what he was worth. Ultimately, it robbed fans of an amazing fight between Jones and Ngannou. Now, we can only sit and think about what this fight might have been.

Overall, Ngannou isn’t too pressed about not being part of the UFC anymore. This is because he is exploring plenty of other avenues. For instance, he wants to get into the boxing ring. In the past, we have reported on his desire to fight against Tyson Fury. Now, however, it seems like he has a different opponent in mind. According to TMZ, this adversary is none other than Deontay Wilder. As Ngannou explained, Wilder is willing and able to fight. Additionally, they are thinking of doing two fights, with one happening in Africa.

Francis Ngannou Speaks

“We are looking into [Deontay Wilder] because he’s available,” Ngannou said. “He’s ready for that. He’s very excited about [a fight with me]. He wants it. So, we are looking into that. That’s something I’m very excited about. We even discussed a potential one fight in Africa and one fight somewhere else. Why not even the two fights in Africa?” The last time we saw Wilder fight, was in October when he defeated Robert Helenius. It was his first win after taking two losses in a row to Tyson Fury.

Overall, this would definitely make for an interesting fight. Although, there is no doubt that Wilder would be the favorite. He has more experience when it comes to boxing, and he would be more agile in the ring. Regardless, UFC fighters have been experimenting with boxing quite a bit, so it should come as no surprise that Ngannou is going down this road. Let us know who you think would win, down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Gervonta Davis Threatens YK Osiris Over Lil Reese Bet

by

Gervonta Davis just threatened YK Osiris after Lil Reese called out his poor ability to pay back his bets. Moreover, the Chicago native said that he’s betting on Tank Davis to win his next fight, and challenged Osiris via Twitter. “Somebody tell ykosiris I got @Gervontaa for whatever he tryna bet,” he tweeted over the weekend. Not only that, but Davis himself stepped in to say that Osiris better pay up this time. Overall, it seems like they’re challenging him to bet against Tank and prove that he can pay a losing bet. “And I’m knocking him out if he don’t pay,” Davis replied to Reese on the social media platform.

Furthermore, the 28-year-old pro boxer is set to face off against Ryan Garcia in a highly anticipated 12-round bout. To elaborate, the fight will take place on April 22 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. What’s more is that the boxers just wrapped up a heated press tour that stopped in New York and L.A. earlier this month. The theatrical and intense displays of competitiveness and determination only add to excitement around the Showtime Sports PPV event.

Gervonta Davis YK Osiris If Lil Reese Bet Doesn’t Work Out

However, any mention of the word “bet” used to scare YK Osiris due to his shoddy past wagers. For example, he notoriously owed money to rappers like Drake, French Montana, Young Thug, Lil Baby, and more for his moves. Still, it would be one thing if he simply had bad luck and lost a lot of dough. Unfortunately, though, these issues seem to stem from late payments and unfulfilled promises. Still, that’s all in the past (at least hopefully), as the rapper said he was free of debt at the start of last year (fun fact: he wasn’t).

“I’m going shopping today about to take my son shopping today,” the “Worth It” artist said in a clip as he drove with his son. “You know we debt-free, man. Taking my son shopping today. We gon’ spend that money.” Hopefully he gets to support whoever he wants in Davis versus Garcia and has the bucks to match Reese’s boasts. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest on Gervonta Davis, Lil Reese, and YK Osiris.

Floyd Mayweather & KSI To Tag Team Fight Manny Pacquiao & Salt Papi

by

Floyd Mayweather and KSI are reportedly in talks to do a tag team fight against Manny Pacquiao and Salt Papi soon. Moreover, these four titans in combat sports come from very different origins and disciplines before entering the ring. Pacquiao and Mayweather already faced off and are two of the most celebrated boxers of our time. On the other hand, Papi and KSI built incredible careers thanks to their prior social media presence and hustling that led them where they are today. Overall, it’s quite a representative pool of what’s happening with boxing and combat sports in general today, as sad as that may make some people.

That being said, if it goes down, this will be an incredibly exciting display regardless of each fighter’s journey. Sure, controversial figures like Jake Paul inspire a lot of rage in the boxing community, but others also elevated the sport to a wider audience. In fact, Mayweather himself had a confrontation with Paul in Miami on Thursday (March 9). They have a long and intense rivalry, and things got so heated that the social media influencer ran away. Later, he gave his side of the story on Instagram.

Mayweather, Pacquiao, Salt Papi & KSI To Face Off In Tag Team Fight

“So I’m leaving the Miami Heat game,” Paul explained. “Floyd Mayweather and 50 dudes pull up out of nowhere, out of like some side alley, waiting for me outside the stadium, and they’re like, ‘So what’s up? What’s all that talk now?’ I’m like first of all, what did I say to you Floyd? I just took your hat and you’re still mad about it? Come on, bro. And then 50 dudes literally start surrounding me to jump me, and I’m out that b***h, ok?”

However, according to a source close to Floyd, Jake Paul had much more to worry about than his robbery antics. “Jake crossed the line,” they said. “This wasn’t about grabbing a hat. This was about Jake’s comments to Floyd about Floyd’s deceased family member and other below-the-belt inappropriate behavior.” Fortunately, if this news is true, Mayweather will have much better things to worry about and look forward to than his Jake Paul battles. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest on Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, Salt Papi, and KSI.

Gervonta Davis Earns Praise From Denzel Washington

by

Gervonta Davis is easily one of the best boxers in the entire world right now. Overall, he is an undefeated world champion who continues to gain critical acclaim. In fact, he is set to take on Ryan Garcia next month. This is going to be the biggest fight of his entire career. Although Davis is undefeated, there is this narrative that he hasn’t fought anyone worthwhile. Consequently, he has received quite a bit of criticism. This fight against Garcia is meant to show the world that he can beat top-tier fighters, and he can do it convincingly.

This past week, Davis and Garcia even had their first press conference for the fight. Overall, it was very interesting to watch. These two have a lot of bad blood between each other, and it should make for an amazing fight. Additionally, Davis is going into the match as a huge favorite. This will certainly motivate Garcia who now has to deal with the underdog label. That said, Davis is making sure that he still engages in some leisure time ahead of the fight. For instance, he was in L.A. last night to watch the Lakers play the Knicks.

Gervonta Davis x Denzel Washington

In the end, it was the New York Knicks who came out victorious. However, for Davis, it was a big night when you consider who he got to meet courtside. In the video clip above, Davis could be seen chopping it up with none other than legendary actor Denzel Washington. Washington was attending the game with Spike Lee, instead of attending the Oscars. As you can see, Washington had nothing but praise for Davis. The actor told the boxer that he loves him, and you could tell that Tank was loving every second of it.

Davis is someone whose fights are absolutely box office. He is a massive draw, and this fight against Ryan Garcia will only increase his status in the boxing world. Whether or not he will be able to quiet down the doubters, remains to be seen. Let us know who you have winning the Garcia Vs. Davis fight, in the comments below.

Gervonta Davis Claims LeSean McCoy Is Gay

by

Gervonta Davis is one of the most famous boxers in the world right now. Overall, he is an undefeated fighter who has a ton of acclaim. He has the backing of Floyd Mayweather, and he is seen as a prodigy who will become a legend. However, there are some people who feel like he hasn’t really fought anyone significant. This is a fair criticism as Davis’ challengers have been fairly weak. Although, that promises to change as Davis is looking to fight against Ryan Garcia in his next match.

Ryan Garcia will easily be his biggest opponent thus far. These two have a significant beef with one another, and that bad blood will make for an amazing fight. Moreover, this is a match that has a whole lot of people talking. For instance, LeSean McCoy was recently asked about the match and who he is going for. The former NFL superstar went on to say “Tank is small, small arms & who has tank fought? He hasn’t fought anybody good.” Overall, this is a massive hot take, and Davis did not care for it whatsoever.

Gervonta Davis Claps Back

Davis subsequently took to Twitter where he put McCoy on blast. In fact, he decided to accuse McCoy of being gay, which is a pretty ridiculous response. However, it is fairly par for the course in regard to Davis. “I heard he like men..he need to stfu before I slap the shit outta him,” Davis wrote. This tweet led to plenty of reactions on social media as many were surprised to see him go there. It was definitely a shot below the belt, although all is fair in war.

As for this fight between Tank and Garcia, most people have Davis winning. Although, if Garcia pulls off the upset, it will make for fantastic drama. Boxing is one of those sports that loves an underdog, and we could very well see that play out in April. With this fight about a month away, let us know who you think will win, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from the sports world.

Jake Paul Confronted By Floyd Mayweather In Miami: Watch

by

Jake Paul and Floyd Mayweather do not like each other very much. Overall, there is some bad blood there, and it mostly stems from the fact that Jake stole Mayweather’s hat. Of course, this took place a few years ago when Floyd and Logan Paul were promoting their exhibition match. Subsequently, there was a huge melee at the Hard Rock Stadium. However, it never really progressed past that point.

On Wednesday night, things escalated between the two. Jake and Floyd were both in Miami for the match between the Heat and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Following the match, Floyd’s people approached Jake, who was with just one bodyguard. Overall, it did not go well for Jake, who ended up running off, according to TMZ footage. After the altercation, Paul took to Instagram and explained what happened. “So I’m leaving the Miami Heat game and Floyd Mayweather and 50 dudes pull up out of nowhere, out of like some side alley, waiting for me outside the stadium, and they’re like, ‘So what’s up? what’s all that talk now?’” Paul said. “I’m like first of all, what did I say to you Floyd? I just took your hat and you’re still mad about it? Come on, bro. And then 50 dudes literally start surrounding me to jump me, and I’m out that bitch, ok?”

Jake Paul Vs. Floyd

According to TMZ, however, Floyd’s people believe it goes way deeper than that. One source even said “Jake crossed the line. This wasn’t about grabbing a hat. This was about Jake’s comments to Floyd about Floyd’s deceased family member and other below-the-belt inappropriate behavior.” No matter what, this is a pretty bad look for Jake Paul. Although, he is definitely in promotion mode as he is calling out Floyd, demanding a boxing match. “Floyd will not see me 1 on 1 in a real fight. That’s a fact. His team has hit my team numerous times to do one of his ‘exhibitions,’” Paul wrote. “Now he ambushes me. Come see me in the ring, real fight, no exhibition robbing fans bullshit.”

At this point, it is going to take a very long time for these men to resolve their issues. Not to mention, a fight between the two is very unlikely. After all, Paul needs to avenge himself against Tommy Fury. Moreover, Floyd has other names to check off of his list first. Let us know what you think of the altercation and the ensuing reactions, below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the sports world.

Jake Paul Claims Wet Dream Derailed Tommy Fury Fight

by

Jake Paul just had a fight against Tommy Fury that did not go his way. Overall, Paul made the fight pretty close, however, Fury was able to win via split decision. Subsequently, there are already numerous talks about a rematch. There have been various reports saying that the rematch would go down in July. However, nothing has been made official at this time. Not to mention, it seems just a bit premature for Paul to ask for a rematch given his performance. He didn’t seem ready, and he still has a lot of work to do if he wants to beat Fury.

In the aftermath of this fight, Jake Paul has been doing all sorts of media with his brother Logan. For instance, he was recently on an episode of Impaulsive where he got to speak about the fight and some of the issues he faced. Overall, it was an insightful conversation where Paul took accountability for his L. However, he did mention the fact that he had a wet dream the night before the fight. This ultimately shook his confidence a bit as he had gone out of his way not to have sex before the fight.

Jake Paul Tells All

It should be noted that Jake doesn’t believe this is the only reason why he lost. Although, he does think it is part of the reason for his L. Logan went on to say that he experienced the same thing before fighting KSI. “I remember when it happened to me, mentally, I was kinda destroyed a little bit,” Logan Paul said. “You had just done this thing that isn’t easy for three weeks to a month, holding your batch in … it’s not easy. And then, on the day of the f***ing fight, all your progress is destroyed. You’re back to zero. And, it isn’t a little release, either, by the way. It’s like … it’s a lot, dude.”

Moving forward, it seems like Paul will simply be training a bit harder before his fights. If he cannot beat Tommy Fury, then he will have to go back to fighting against YouTube stars. It is a harsh reality, but that just seems to be the case right now. Stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the boxing world.
