Logan Paul Previews Floyd Mayweather Fight With Fiery Hype Video

by

Logan and Jake Paul’s forays into boxing have not been well-received by purists of the sport. Despite this, neither of them seems to care as they continue to get big fights that attract millions of viewers. Even though he hasn’t won a single fight in his career, Logan is set to go up against Floyd Mayweather next Sunday, and it is promising to be a spectacle for the ages. Mayweather is one of the best fighters ever, while Logan is a virtual nobody when it comes to the ring.

Regardless of the supposed mismatch, fans are interested in seeing how this plays out, and if Mayweather were to knock Logan out, it would prove to be one of the greatest nights in the history of the internet. On the flip side, if Logan pulls off an upset, the Mayweather slander will be off the charts.

As a way to build some hype for the fight, Logan took to Instagram with a fiery highlight reel that shows off some soundbites from the two fighters, as well as some highlight clips. These types of videos always help build momentum ahead of the fight, and we’re sure some fans are going to want to run through a wall after checking it out.

With the fight just seven days away, the suspense is palpable, although it seems like the payoff is going to be worth the wait.

Nipsey Hussle’s Baby Mama Says “I Stood By His Side When No One Else Was There”

by

Playing the game of “who’s most loyal” is something that happens often when a person of prominence unfortunately passes away, and it’s been a lot of that on all levels since the March 2019 murder of West Coast rap star Nipsey Hussle.

In the case of Nip’s first baby momma Tanisha Foster, who also goes by the aka Chyna Hussle, she’s now claiming to be the most loyal person “by his side” during the times when he had no one there for support.

“I stood by his side when no one else was there,” Foster wrote as a caption on a picture she posted of herself and Nipsey during the early days when they were still together. Given the absence of his now-iconic beard and upper body tattoos in the flick, it’s a given that the photo in question was taken years ago. With that said, it’s hard to understand what Chyna is trying to say with the photo and accompanying caption given all the support he had in the years prior to and following his death. The photo above, featuring Nip and Chyna’s daughter Emani Asghedom holding one of two awards he posthumously won last year at the 2020 GRAMMY Awards, clearly shows he had love and support from grandmother Margaret Bouffe, sister Samantha Smith and most recent wifey Lauren London amongst many others.

A lot of fans were quick to call Chyna out for the poorly-timed message, with people in the The Neighborhood Talk’s comment section saying everything from “Please girl not today” to “Aht aht u wasn’t pulling stunts when this man was alive.” However, there were a few who felt she had the merit to mourn, with supportive comments that read, “Can’t take her time with him away from her either,” and one person posing the question, “She was with him at some point to and loved him regardless so she doesn’t get to reminisce too??”

Take a look at Chyna Hussle’s message of loyalty to Nipsey Hussle below, and let us know down in the comments if his baby momma had a point or should just let this memory live in her own head:

Meek Mill Slams ‘Blogs’ And Accuses Them Of Only Covering The ‘Goofy Sh*t’ He Does

by

Meek Mill often finds himself trending on social media for questionable things. One example came earlier this year, when he mentioned Kobe Bryant in a tasteless manner on a song with Lil Baby. Prior to that, there was his and Tekashi 69’s parking lot spat in Miami. Despite these instances, it’d be wrong to say Meek hasn’t done anything positive, or at least not embarrassing, over the past few months. But the way the Philly rapper sees it, the coverage he gets has only focused on the bad he does.

“Yesterday I help a innocent man gain his freedom back he had life in prison,” he wrote on Twitter in reference to Eric Riddick, a 51-year-old man who was recently released from prison, thanks to help from Meek and others, after he was wrongfully convicted of murder and spent 29 years locked up for it as a result. He added, “On the net I was trending for a pause basically lol them blogs got y’all… Go check blogs pages …don’t post positive post just the goofy sh*t… y’all sheep and be serious lol.”

An example of “goofy sh*t” Meek refers to is a past tweet where he oddly asked his followers, “I need vibrating panties with the remote lol they on Amazon? Lol.” The post caused him to trend on Twitter.

As for Riddick, he was freed after he agreed to plead no contest to third-degree murder with time served. A Court of Common Pleas Judge previously reviewed Riddick’s case after his defense attorneys claimed evidence was withheld from the defense team during the trial.

Meek Mill is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Lil Reese Spotted Looking Healthy & Unbothered Post Chicago Shooting

by

Lil Reese sparked concern among fans two weeks ago after he was named among three men who were shot in Chicago. Authorities responded to calls of gunfire around 10 am on Saturday, May 15th. When officers arrived at the scene, they discovered Reese and two other men wounded. 

Reese was listed as being in “fair” condition at the time of the incident, although a graphic video showing the rapper barely conscious later floated around the internet. In some of the first footage of the rapper post-shooting, he appears to be in superb condition following the scary incident.

In the newly surfaced video, Reese appears to have made a very speedy recovery. He sits comfortably in a chair as he flexes his diamond-encrusted ice. A person unfamiliar with the situation would not be able to guess less than two weeks ago he suffered from a gunshot wound. “His opps punching the air somewhere rn,” joked one fan.  

Others joked that Reese has kissed death so many times, at this point he must be immortal. While immortality may not be viable, he certainly is one lucky man. As we reported, the bullet reportedly grazed his eye. 

Prayers up he doesn’t run into any more trouble soon after the close call. 

Carmelo Anthony Receives Massive Birthday Tribute From Blazers Fans

by

Carmelo Anthony’s career seemed to be over just a couple of years ago. There weren’t many teams out there willing to give him a chance, and it seemed like he was being blackballed. However, players like Damian Lillard continued to vouch for him and eventually, Melo found a home with the Portland Trail Blazers. Since signing with the team in 2019, Melo has been a valued member of the franchise and he has been a big help when it comes to their playoff efforts.

On Saturday, Melo helped lift the Blazers over the Nuggets in Game of their first-round series, thanks to a 12-point performance. This was a big day for Melo because it just so happened to be his 37th birthday. Earlier in the day, LeBron James came through with a nostalgic birthday post dedicated to Melo, and when it comes to Blazers fans, they pull off something just as special. In the clip below, you can hear every Blazers fan in the arena singing Happy Birthday as he minds his business on the court.

Blazers fans had a lot to cheer about yesterday as their team tied the series against the Nuggets at two games apiece. Now, the series has become a best-of-three, and the Blazers have a good chance of pulling off the upset.

If Melo continues to be a solid contributor, there is no reason why the Blazers can’t win.

DC Young Fly Speaks Out After Allegedly Knocking Someone Out Onstage

by

DC Young Fly is best known as a recurring cast member of the popular improv comedy series Wild ‘N Out. As a fan-favorite cast member, the certified funny man is widely understood as an unproblematic goof in contemporary discussions. An attempt to harm the comedian would simply leave many questioning who could have any smoke with him. 

Thus, an alleged incident that occurred on Memorial Day Weekend that left a person completely unconscious while he was performing at an Oakland comedy club shocked many people familiar with the comedy genius. After the alleged altercation took place, he took some time to clarify what really went down from his point of view.

Edited for clarity, the proud Atlanta native penned in the caption of a photo set sharing footage of the incident, “Im from the WestSide of Atlanta im really from the streets I [been] stabbed I am traumatized but GOD turned my life around but I always stay on point just in case I have to protect myself!!!!!”

He continued, “Pleasanton/Oakland I love [y’all] forever and we always have a good time but I’m mad [y’all] l had to see [that] side of me but if u dont f*ck wit me please dont come to my shows if [your] intentions aint to kome and have a good time dont show up cause I pray that the energy is rite everywhere I go.”

“And I’m protected and covered by GOD plus i got hands #IWillMakeItHome,” he added humorously. He finished, “Sorry [y’all] had to see me knock a nigga out but guess [what] #IGotOnWithTheShow #GODSentMeOnaMission #IMustFinishMyTask.” 

The footage shows Young Fly pacing angrily around on the stage presumably directly after the altercation occurred. He appears still visibly annoyed at the incident. From the audience’s reactions, it seems he was able to subdue the assailant after landing just one punch. He then carried on with the show. 

Watch the footage for yourself and let us know what you think of his impression one hitta. 

Damian Lillard Flexes On Fan Who Questioned His Recent Outfit

by

Damian Lillard and his Portland Trail Blazers teammates came through with a big win on Saturday as they tied up their series against the Denver Nuggets at two games apiece. The Blazers and the Nuggets look fairly even so far and if Lillard can put together some of his signature performances, then the Blazers could be well on their way to an upset that would shake up the Western Conference playoff picture.

After last night’s game, Lillard was wearing a unique button-up shirt that seemed to have some interesting textures to it. Not everyone was a fan of the attire, which led to someone on Twitter commenting “why you wearing car carpet as a designer?” Lillard is known for being active on Twitter, which allowed him to see the disparaging remark. This led to a pretty hilarious clap back as Lillard said “Cuz it’s a Lamborghini carpet.”

NBA players have been showcasing some interesting outfits over the past few years and Lillard has certainly been one of the players who aren’t shy to showcase his varied taste. After all, fashion is an expression of your individualism and it is always cool to see guys taking risks with their wardrobes.

As for the Blazers’ next game, they will be taking on the Nuggets on Tuesday, in Denver for Game 5.
