(BadLeftHook) Adrien Broner is almost certainly going to be facing Ashley Theophane in his next fight, a manufactured rivalry that has already been pretty openly rejected by fight fans and media, but the more interesting bit of chatter about Adrien Broner comes from Michael Woods, who says he's been informed of "rumblings" to have a Mayweather-Broner fight next year, if Floyd decides that he wants to fight again, which most expect he will.
Broner (31-2, 23 KO) is coming off of a solid win over Khabib Allakhverdiev last weekend in Cincinnati, and Mayweather met with him there this week to "put the finishing touches" on a fight with Theophane (39-6-1, 11 KO), a 35-year-old journeyman fighter who has been part of untelevised Mayweather Promotions undercards for the last few years. Broner called out Theophane on Showtime after the Allakhverdiev fight, saying that Mayweather believes Theophane can beat Broner. It's all very transparent, but it does set up Broner, 26, with what would seem to be an easy first title defense now that he's WBA junior welterweight titleholder.
All of this could easily be worked into some sort of concocted storyline to put Mayweather and Broner at odds later in 2016, and would even give Mayweather a chance to play the babyface for once, since the easiest way to sell it would be Rocky Balboa-Tommy Gunn style, where the young idiot starts thinking he's better than his mentor.
If this fight does come together, it wouldn't surprise me, at least. I said a couple of years ago that I could see that as a future fight, because Mayweather might eventually tire of Broner sort of riding his coattails. And more than that, when you have two guys with egos as big as those on Floyd and AB, you're going to get some friction if they spend enough time in the spotlight related to one another in any way, even if the comparisons between the two have become more of a running joke than anything serious at this point.
For his part, Broner is much better at talking up a fight than Andre Berto, even if he wouldn't actually be any more qualified as an opponent, and a Mayweather "comeback" likely would be a pretty easy sell, especially with the potential for shenanigans and dramatic nonsense.
Of course, it's all a rumor, but I'm buying it as a legit possibility for next year. It just adds up too easily, at least to me. What do you think? Just talk or something you could see happening for real?
Houston rap legend Scarface was taken into custody Friday. October 9, for back child support shortly after accepting the I Am Hip Hop trophy at the 2015 BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta.
Facemob, 44, real name Brad Jordan, was previously arrested in Houston for the same offence on October 13, 2010. At the time he owed $123,372 for four separate case.
He was released 10 months later.
He's currently being held in Fulton County jail following his latest arrest.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Prosecutors investigating the death of a 12-year-old black boy who was fatally shot by a white Cleveland police officer say they are just trying to be transparent in seeking and sharing outside reviews by experts in use of force. A lawyer for the boy's family, however, says the outside reports finding that the shooting was justified show that prosecutors are avoiding accountability.
The reports were released Saturday night by the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, which asked for the outside reviews as it presents evidence to a grand jury that will ultimately determine whether Timothy Loehmann will be charged in the November death of Tamir Rice, who was holding a pellet gun.
Officer Timothy Loehmann
A retired FBI agent and a Denver prosecutor both found that the rookie patrolman who shot Tamir moments after pulling up beside him exercised a reasonable use of force because he had reason to perceive the boy — described in a 911 call as man waving and pointing a gun — as a serious threat.
"We are not reaching any conclusions from these reports," Prosecutor Timothy J. McGinty said in a statement. "The gathering of evidence continues, and the grand jury will evaluate it all."
He said the reports, which included a technical reconstruction by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, were released in the interest of being "as public and transparent as possible."
Subodh Chandra, a lawyer for the Rice family, said the release of the reports shows the prosecutor is avoiding accountability, which is what the family seeks.
"It is now obvious that the prosecutor's office has been on a 12-month quest to avoid providing that accountability," he said. He added that the prosecutor's office didn't provide his office or the Rice family with the details from the reports. He also questioned the timing of the release, at 8 p.m. Saturday on the Columbus Day holiday weekend.

"To get so-called experts to assist in the whitewash — when the world has the video of what happened — is all the more alarming," Chandra said. "Who will speak for Tamir before the grand jury? Not the prosecutor, apparently."
The killing of Tamir has become part of a national outcry about minorities, especially black boys and men, dying during encounters with police.
Both experts were provided with surveillance video of the shooting that showed Loehmann firing at Tamir within two seconds after the police cruiser driven by his partner pulled up next to the boy. Police say the officers were responding to a call about a man with a gun, but were not told the caller said the gun could be a fake and the man an adolescent.
The report prepared by retired FBI agent Kimberly A. Crawford concluded that Loehmann's use of force did not violate Tamir's constitutional rights, saying the only facts relevant to such a determination are those the patrolman had at the time he fired his weapon.
Loehmann, she wrote, "had no information to suggest the weapon was anything but a real handgun, and the speed with which the confrontation progressed would not give the officer time to focus on the weapon."
"It is my conclusion that Officer Loehmann's use of deadly force falls within the realm of reasonableness under the dictates of the Fourth Amendment," Crawford wrote, though she noted she was not issuing an opinion as to whether Loehmann violated Ohio law or department policy.
Lamar Sims, the chief deputy district attorney in Denver, also concluded that Loehmann's actions were reasonable based on statements from witnesses and the reconstruction.
Sims said the officers had no idea if the pellet gun was a real gun when they arrived, and that Loehmann was in a position of great peril because he was within feet of Tamir as the boy approached the cruiser and reached toward his waistband.
"The officers did not create the violent situation," Sims wrote. "They were responding to a situation fraught with the potential for violence to citizens."
Chandra, the Rice family lawyer, says the experts "dodge the simple fact that the officers rushed Tamir and shot him immediately without assessing the situation in the least. Reasonable jurors could find that conduct unreasonable. But they will never get the chance because the prosecutor is working diligently to ensure that there is no indictment and no accountability."
The pellet gun Tamir was holding shoots non-lethal plastic projectiles but its orange markings had been removed.

There's no love lost between Young Chop and Kanye West.
Chop released a couple of videos taking shots at Yeezy for exploiting Chicago artists and taking credit for discovering Chief Keef and Vic Mensa.
"He right along with the shits," Chop said. "Use you, try to soak up everything niggas know. Get you to write songs for him and then don't call you after that. Fuck him. For instance, "Don't Like" and my boy Vic Mensa. They gon' make it seem like he put them on. And he really fucking didn't. Niggas started from the bottom."

(Savannah Morning News) Mathew Ajibade was placed in a restraining chair at 11:48 p.m. Jan. 1 after a struggle with jailers and then left for extended periods of time without an action by jail staff, a jail video played in court Wednesday revealed.
The video, played for the Chatham County Superior Court jury hearing the case of three jail employees charged in his death, was part of the prosecution’s key evidence in their case of involuntary manslaughter and failing to monitor what they said led to Ajibade’s death while still in a restraint chair.
Judge James F. Bass Jr. recessed court Wednesday, in part because a broken air conditioner made the courtroom uncomfortable for the second day. Jurors were to return today to resume the video presentation with Bass being assured the system will be repaired.
Ajibade, 21, died late Jan. 1 or early Jan. 2 in a restraint chair in the wake of a violent confrontation with jailers.
Mathew Ajibade
Former deputies Jason Kenny, 31, and Maxine Evans, 56, along with Gregory Brown, a 45-year-old Corizon Health licensed practical nurse at the jail, are on trial for involuntary manslaughter for causing Ajibade’s death “without any intention to do so.”
Jason Kenny
Gregory Brown
Maxine Evans
Kenny is charged with using a Taser against a restrained Ajibade. The other two are charged with reckless conduct by failing to monitor Ajibade’s status.
In addition, Kenny and Evans are charged in two separate indictments with committing perjury before the Chatham County grand jury that was hearing the case in what the state contends was part of an attempt to cover up their involvement in the death.
All three defendants have pleaded not guilty to all charges.
On the witness stand Wednesday, former Lt. Debra Johnson, who was watch commander that night, provided narrative to the video.
The evidence showed Ajibade refusing repeated instructions from a deputy to sit in a red chair in the pre-booking area, then battling with as many as five deputies on the floor as they tried to subdue him.
At one point, Sgt. Anza Rowland is knocked to the floor during a scuffle with Ajibade over a Taser, her nose broken and suffering a concussion by Ajibade, and Brown can be seen rushing to her assistance.
Also during the struggle, Deputy Mark Capers strikes Ajibade twice in the face, action Johnson said was justified under jail policies in an effort to control the inmate.
Johnson also testified that Kenny asked for a spit mask for Ajibade after he was in the restraint chair and moved to a cell in the old jail area, then called for a Taser.
Johnson retired after 26 years with the sheriff’s department in the wake of Ajibade’s death.
Dr. Chris Sperry, the state’s chief medical examiner, testified Wednesday that Ajibade “was stressed to death as a consequence of what occurred” by the series of confrontations with law enforcement before his death at the Chatham County jail.
Sperry, who works for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime lab, said the beginning was when Savannah-Chatham police arrested Ajibade earlier in the evening in a domestic violence case involving his girlfriend and ended with Ajibade being placed in restraints and left unattended for an hour and a half.
“All of these things added up to cause his death,” Sperry said in response to questions by defense lawyers. “I don’t know exactly when he died. That is impossible to do.”
Sperry’s testimony followed that of Chatham County Coroner Dr. William Wessinger, who listed blunt force trauma as cause of death on Ajibade’s death certificate.
“It was so many items listed I couldn’t put it on the death certificate,” Wessinger testified of the autopsy report. “I put down immediate cause as ‘blunt force trauma.’”
Bass has ruled that “this case rises or falls on the issue of (direct) cause” for Ajibade’s death.
In other testimony Wednesday:
• Two state toxicologists testified that Ajibade was “negative” for alcohol and had some evidence of marijuana in his system but nothing heavier.
• Savannahh-Chatham police Star Cpl. Reginald Owens testified he was called to the El Cheapo gas station at East Duffy and Abercorn Streets about 6:15 p.m. on Jan. 1 after a 911 caller reported a dispute between Ajibade and a woman later identified as his girlfriend.
• Owens testified the woman’s face was covered in blood and that he “took Ajibade off balance” and to the ground to control him to make an arrest.
• Owens also testified that when he got Ajibade to the jail, “Jason Kenny was the first officer I turned Ajibade over to. ... He was in booking.”
For K. Camp's latest he decides to remix Future and Drake's song "Jumpman." Give it a listen below and let us know what you think in the comment section below.
The album is actually named “New Jerusalem” and Jacques Johnson (Pronounced: Jhock) did things his way and all by himself creatively. The name isn’t the only thing unique. This quiet young star has tracks that leave you playing them over and over. There are no paid features on this album. He hasn’t tried to ride on someone’s brand. There is just good music. They variety on the track list remind you of Drake, Kanye and some trap just to let you know he can. The mixing is phenomenal and the skits are authentic. His single “Spotlight” is a party anthem for anyone and everyone. His track “That’s A Bet” gives you a street anthem with a strong beat. Then, you get to “Nailed” and you feel anointed by the lyrics because Jacques Johnson refers to being Nailed to the top and turning water to Ciroc.
This young indie business owner is being viewed as a quiet storm. His demeanor is low key until he hits the stage. He has been referred to as “complex” because his lyrics are not that of a young artist. If he chooses to play an instrument, he does. He is a master of self teaching. His amazing mind will keep bringing hits. His story is one of diversity and a well educated suburban upbringing, but he has always made music and lyrics his first loves.
With the partnership of GameTite Records, Jacques Johnson has distributed his own music worldwide, teamed with a major retailer for store promos, opened for major artists, and is killing shows. With his publicist, Tara Thomas and promotions with DM Management Co. and Marjohn Ent., Jacques Johnson’s team is making moves. It can only get better from here.
Continuing his success with the release of Sentir Mon Amour (Feel My Love), Grammy considered singer-songwriter J Metro prepares to release the new visuals for his latest single “Midnight Dreams”. The video shot for the single was captured by J Metro himself while touring in the country of Switzerland for WIPO, and edited by media icon Rueben Wood.
Written and produced by J Metro, “Midnight Dreams” is the third single from the neo-soul electrifying album Sentir Mon Amour which is still in the early stages of its success being released on July 10th digitally and in stores August 7th. The leading single “Bodyguard” charted at number 12 on Billboard’s Single Sales Chart, giving the initial push needed for the album to become successful.
