Brown and Ocean got into a heated scuffle last month at a Los Angeles studio and it’s no secret that they aren’t the best of friends. Brown deciding to stay put while Ocean accepted his award was of no real shock.

The 55th Annual Grammy Awards is underway in Los Angeles, California.

Given the cherished history of the event and what it means to the music industry, it’s hard to think of a couple who fit the description of a power couple at the event more than Jay-Z and his wife Beyonce.

Lebron James and Dwayne Wade led the Heat with 32 and 30 points, with each man shooting 12-18 from the floor.

One man who wasn’t able to finish watching the festivities was popular rapper Lil Wayne, an admitted diehard Lakers fans.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been no stranger to drama all season. A recent team meeting in Memphis apparently did nothing to improve the relationships between the players.

Instead of being a cohesive team there has been nonstop trash talking place between the players back to the media. All-star center Dwight Howard has taken a lot of that criticism for various reasons including not playing through his injuries.

On Wednesday, ESPNBoston.com’s Jackie MacMullan claimed Kobe Bryant challenged Howard to play through his shoulder injury.

“We don’t have time for [Howard’s shoulder] to heal,” Bryant stated. “We need some urgency.”

This didn’t sit too well with Howard, why responding by noting that Bryant is no doctor nor is he in the position to evaluate his physical condition.

The more time I spend covering boxing, the more I seem to become embedded in the sport.

Focusing on articles, videos, and photos, there is no better place for me to get pure coverage than inside of the gyms and over the past three-plus years I’ve been able to chronicle some of the finest prospects in Las Vegas and California.

It was August of 2010 when I first crossed paths with Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s Luis ‘Cuba’ Arias, as the National Amateur champion was giving light heavyweight titlist Chad Dawson some lively work ahead of his clash with Jean Pascal later that month. I instantly spotted Arias’ strength and aggression in the ring and knew he would likely be making a name for himself as a professional.

A few years later and Arias’ name is starting to slowly but surely resonate within boxing circles.

Floyd Mayweather looking to sue The Wine Bistro in New Orleans for false advertising

While Floyd Mayweather might technically call Las Vegas his home, you will be hard-pressed to find any superstar athlete who travels as much as the multi-division world champion prizefighter does.

Mayweather has had just five fights in the past five years, meaning he has a lot of down time, and he loves to spend his time on private jets while hitting up various hot spots and nightclubs across the nation.

However, one place Mayweather is adamant that he wasn’t inside of The Wine Bistro in New Orleans for a Super Bowl pre-game bash.

By Chris Robinson

Having covered the sport of boxing for several years running, I still feel as though there is much more for me to learn and many more doors to open.

With an interest in creating my own videos that had lasted for a little while, I finally set up my own YouTube page this past summer and have since been looking to hone my editing skills along the way.

As I continue to push forward with personal videos, I always keep an open mind for what other artists bring to the table as well.

Last month, through the magic of social-networking, I crossed paths with aspiring director Andre Diaz, as he took the time to introduce me to his YouTube-documentary series titled “The Pursuit”.
