Orlando Scandrick & Draya Pre-Baby Mansion Shopping

Published | Updated

Looks like Orlando Scandrick and Draya Michele are looking for some fresh digs for their most recent fresh start ... eyeing a brand new Sherman Oaks mansion before the birth of their son.

Sources close to the Dallas Cowboys star and his fiancee tell TMZ Sports the two are looking at a "secluded Cape Cod compound" in the celebrity laden Sherman Oaks/Encino area.

Orlando had listed his Woodland Hills estate -- with hot shot realtor Lee Mintz -- at $2.1 million late last year ... but recently reduced the price around $250k ... we're guessing to expedite the whole "moving out of the place she tossed my shoes in the pool" thing.

Published | Updated

Jon Jones' first night behind bars in Albuquerque was a quiet one ... with officials telling TMZ Sports the UFC star was a "model inmate."

Jones turned himself in to authorities Tuesday morning after a warrant was issued for his arrest for violating his probation.

A jail source tells TMZ Sports, "From the moment he walked into the jail, everyone knew he was there. It got around fast. Everyone knows who he is because he was just here a few months ago to speak as part of his community service."

As far as Jon's diet behind bars ... "he's on a standard 2,800 calorie plan."

Jon will remain in jail until he faces a judge which could happen as early as Wednesday.

Lamar Odom's drinking has reached crisis level for Khloe Kardashian, and we've learned she desperately wants him to get help NOW ... but Lamar's digging in his heels.

Cyborg is taking on Leslie Smith at UFC 198 in Brazil on May 14th -- and says she's not only predicting victory ... but wants to put on a show everyone will remember.

"Leslie is a very tough girl, most of her fights end by decision. I don't know if it will be a KO or submission, but I DO KNOW it will be worthy of a UFC performance bonus from Dana White!"

Cyborg says she likes Leslie -- "she is always nice and polite to me" -- but says when they get in the octagon, it's going to be violent.

As for Rousey ... Cyborg says, "Since she is no longer the champ, and I am officially in the UFC, I do not see any reason why the fight between us can't happen."

"I realize Holly Holm kicked her into retirement, but maybe after [UFC 198] we could settle the feud in New York when the UFC comes to Madison Square Garden."

"If Ronda is still retired, or has thought of a few more excuses to not fight me, then maybe Holly Holm or Miesha Tate are willing to fight. I want to make the biggest fights the fans want to see."
