Ronda Rousey's rock solid body took a softer approach this week when she donned a bikini on the beach in Rio.

"Basketball Wives LA" star Draya Michele is pissed a semi-nude pic of her popped up on the Internet -- and she thinks she knows who did her wrong, but she's decided she's got nothing to hide.

Draya tells TMZ Sports she posed for the pics earlier this year. The photoshoot was not supposed to be for public consumption ... strictly for her eyes and her BF, Orlando Scandrick.

She was initially worried her shirt was "a bit wet" -- and honestly, it's a LOT wet -- but after seeing the finished product Draya says she decided they were "tasteful and beautiful." Smart decision.

Draya's pretty sure the photog is responsible for the leak, but says it's all good.

Aldon Smith's arrest Friday was his last straw with the San Francisco 49ers ... they've cut him.

The WWE fixed its colossal XXX mistake ... by dropping its Divas team name after it accidentally pointed fans toward tons of Internet porn.

Mayweather-Berto has turned into full-on STAR WARS -- and Andre Berto is armed and ready to do battle after Sylvester Stallone took a serious pot shot at him.

We got Berto as he and Floyd Mayweather Jr. were leaving the news conference for their fight -- and we had to tell him about Stallone's jab. If you missed it, Rocky told us the only way Berto could win the fight is if Mayweather has a heart attack in the ring.

Berto tells us he WAS a fan of Stallone, but since he's "talking crazy" ... he's ready and willing to jump to another famous actor/boxer's corner.

He also hints Matt McConaughey, Chris Brown and some other celebs might be showing him some love in Vegas on Sept. 12.

8:45 AM PT -- Aldon just got sprung after posting the $26k bail.

49ers superstar Aldon Smith is in a familiar place, and it ain't training camp -- he's in jail after getting busted for hit and run and DUI.

The oft-arrested Smith is sitting in jail after Santa Clara police hauled him in early Friday morning. He's being held on $26,000 bail.

We know he's been booked for DUI, hit and run, and also vandalism. It's still unclear exactly what went down leading up to the arrest.

This is Smith's second DUI -- the first was in 2013 -- and he was also hit with weapons charges in 2012. He served 12 days in jail in 2014. The NFL suspended him for 9 games last season.

Story developing ...

Formula 1 driver Jenson Button and his wife were knocked unconscious by sleeping gas shot into their French villa ... and then robbed by thieves who made off with a 5-carat engagement ring!!

The bizarre crime went down in the south of France earlier this week -- Button and his wife, model Jessica Michibata, had rented a villa there ... and while they were sleeping, cops say the crooks pumped anesthetic gas through AC vents.

When the couple was out cold, the robbers cleaned out the villa ... swiping hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of loot -- not the least of which was Jessica's MASSIVE ring. Jenson, Jessica, and some friends ... who were also in the villa ... were not hurt.

Strange as it sounds ... police say there's been a rash of gassing robberies on the French Riviera.

Pete Rose desperately wants the new MLB Commissioner to believe he's not a liar, because the disgraced baseball great just underwent a polygraph exam ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Multiple sources tell us Rose went to Jack Trimarco & Associates in Beverly Hills on Wednesday to take the lie detector test ... and it's all connected to his efforts to be reinstated.

Rose wasted no time reaching out to Commissioner Rob Manfred when he took the MLB reins this year. According to Manfred, Rose has filed a formal request to have his lifetime ban lifted. We're told Rose is hoping the polygraph results will help him build a case for Manfred.

Reversing the ban would be the first step to Rose possibly getting on a Hall of Fame ballot.

Trimarco's pretty famous in lie detector circles. He's worked on terrorism cases like Oklahoma City and the '93 World Trade Center bombing. He's also the guy who truth tested Jose Canseco about steroids in baseball.

Elton Brand is now a free agent ... professionally and personally -- the NBA superstar's wife has filed for separation.

Brand's now estranged wife Shahara Simmons filed the docs a couple weeks ago ... shortly after their 9th anniversary. They met during college at Duke University and have 2 children.

In Sahara's docs she says they hashed out separation of assets back in April, and all that's left to hammer out is child custody and child support.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Andre Berto held the first news conference for their upcoming fight -- and the standout moment wasn't even about them ... instead the under card stole the show.

Before Floyd and Andre spoke ... Orlando Selido and Roman "Rocky" Martinez talked to reporters in the L.A. Convention Center, but only spoke Spanish -- they're Mexican and Puerto Rican, after all.

This did not sit well with Floyd, who said, "We ain't gonna have nobody translate?" When no one stepped up ... el jefe took control, but you gotta see who he pulled out of the crowd.

#Gringo

It's a full blown miracle Draya Michele and Orlando Scandrick are back together after their nasty public break-up ... because Draya admits she got "crazy" and destroyed something he loves.

Draya went on the "Big Boy's Neighborhood" radio show to talk about what the hell is going on between her and Orlando now -- and copped to this recent bit of insanity:

"He’s a shoe guy, I put the shoes in the pool. I put the Yeezys in the pool. I’m not gonna sugar coat it, I’m a little crazy. I’m gonna talk about your mama, it’s an argument!"

Damn. Just. Damn.

One of Pete Rose's longtime enemies claims Rose frequently committed statutory rape during his days as a player and a manager ... but Rose calls it the "best" lie yet about him.

John Dowd, whose investigation eventually lead to Rose getting a lifetime ban from baseball, made the bombshell accusation during a recent interview. Dowd claimed a former Rose associate told him he "ran young girls for [Rose] down in spring training. Ages 12 to 14. Isn't that lovely?"

During the interview with WCHE in Pennsylvania, Dowd added ... "So that's statutory rape everytime you do that."

Rose has denied the allegation and said, "What's Dowd going to talk about next? Something from 50 years ago when I was 24 years old? I don't know why anybody would believe that. It's unbelievable."

Kids get to have all the fun.

Sylvester Stallone knows the secret to defeating Floyd Mayweather Jr. … but it doesn’t have anything to do with his next opponent, Andre Berto.

Almost no one is giving Berto a chance to win the fight -- so we asked Sly if he thinks he's even got a puncher's chance to upset Money. Check it out ... Sly says there's a chance, but not a puncher's one.

Stallone also throws a playful jab at "Southpaw" star Jake Gyllenhaal's on the topic of big screen boxers. We'll give you one guess which actor/fighter he IS backing.

"Sugar" Shane Mosley says he suffered a love TKO because his ex was already married when she said "I do" to him, and then made out like a bandit when she divorced him -- but that's not her memory of what went down.

The ex boxing champ marched into an L.A. courthouse on Wednesday to start taking legal action against Jin Mosley -- who he was married to from 2002 to 2011. Shane claims he recently got proof Jin was also married to another guy from 1995 until 2006 ... which would make her a bigamist.

It would also mean Shane and Jin were never legally married, and therefore never divorced -- which makes a huge financial difference, 'cause according to docs ... Jin cleaned up in the break up:

- 3 houses
- several investment and bank accounts
- 2009 Mercedes G Wagon and 2008 Cadillac Escalade
- income from Mosley's fight library
- $600k lump sum for spousal support

So, clearly there's a lot on the line. However, Jin tells TMZ Sports ... she has no idea what Shane is talking about, and denies being married to anyone else.

It's unclear what kind of "proof" Shane has, but outside court he told us he plans to sue for bigamy and fraud so he can get back everything he shelled out.

After sitting out most of the NBA season last year due to injury Kevin Durant is building back his confidence ... by crushing the dreams of little kids at his youth basketball camp in OKC.

Durant participated in 1-on-1 shooting drills with some tykes at the camp, teaching them a valuable lesson ... basketball is way easier when you're nearly 7 feet tall.
