One of Floyd Mayweather's giant TMT members roughed up a fan as the boxer left a famous chicken joint in Hollywood -- and now police are involved ... TMZ Sports has learned.

It all went down outside the legendary Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles on Wednesday evening -- where Floyd and his massive TMT entourage had dinner around 8 PM.

On his way out, Floyd was approached by a 20-year-old man in a white shirt and glasses who asked Floyd and his crew if he could take a quick photo.

That's when one of Floyd's guys -- a big dude in a red shirt -- rushed to the fan, grabbed him by the neck and slammed him against a wall.

(FYI, that same TMT entourage member was with Floyd during a shopping trip in Bev Hills earlier in the day and was sure acting like a member of the security team).

After the video ends, we're told Floyd's crew put the boxer in the car and bolted.

The man -- who claims he was also punched in the face -- filed a police report and told cops he suffered injuries to his head, neck and mouth.

We spoke to the victim who says he is (was) a HUGE Floyd fan and just wanted a pic -- he wasn't trying to start any trouble.

Sources connected to Floyd's camp tell us the man in the red shirt is "not on the payroll" -- he's just with the entourage.

Tamar Braxton and comedian DeRay Davis got into an explosive argument over lip-sync trash talk and threats he'd unleash his sisters on Tamar to open up a can of ass whoopin'.

Production sources tell TMZ ... the altercation went down Wednesday during filming of VH1's "Hip Hop Squares."

DeRay accused Tamar of lip-syncing, as a joke. She wasn't in earshot but noticed others laughing ... prompting her to ask what was so funny.

We're told Lil Mama relayed the joke to Tamar, and that's when she went off ... getting all up in DeRay's grill, but he wasn't having it. We're told DeRay barked back he didn't care who Tamar was or who her sisters were ... because he'd get HIS sisters to beat her ass.

For what it's worth ... Tamar was accused of lip-syncing her BET performance back in June.

They were eventually separated and filming resumed. No lingering beef, though. We're told Tamar and DeRay hashed things out after the show, which BTW returns Sept. 25 at 9/8c.

Paramore's lead vocalist, Hayley Williams, handed her mic to a die-hard fan who rocked out so hard and so good ... she might as well be Hayley's backup singer.

The impromptu karaoke sesh went down Wednesday night at the Times-Union Center in Jacksonville, FL where the band performed to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of its career-launching album, "Riot!"

It's pretty awesome ... Hayley noticed the fan was singing along all night and decided to bring her up for the last act and rock out to the hit "Misery Business."

How good was she? So good Hayley worshiped the performance, literally.

BTW, the crowd was stoked to see Paramore, which just postponed 2 upcoming shows in Florida as Hurricane Irma makes its way to Miami.

Usher and Lil Wayne have the right idea for coping mechanisms ... make more music, according to Jermaine Dupri.

We got Jermaine outside of Craig's in WeHo Thursday night and asked him how Usher has been holding up since news of his herpes scandal broke. Jermaine's been in the studio with Usher and it sounds like Usher's head is focused on other things than drama.

As for Lil Wayne, Jermaine seems to think him going back to the studio so soon after his recent hospitalization from seizures isn't a bad idea either.

Madonna's obsessed fan is about to go to trial against NYC, but he's counting on the city folding and handing him millions before it comes to that.

Robert Linhart -- who was busted for camping out in front of Madonna's pad and refusing to leave -- is suing the city, claiming NYPD officers roughed him up during the arrest. He originally wanted $5 million, but now says he'll settle for $3 mil.

It's coming down to the wire ... jury selection's scheduled to start Monday, but Linhart and his attorney, Peter Gleason, are still confident prosecutors will make an offer. Linhart claims he'll donate $1 mil of the settlement to hurricane victims.

We're guessing prosecutors don't give a crap about his benevolence, but the clock is ticking.

Anthony Bourdain would dish poison if Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un made reservations for 2.

We got Bourdain Thursday at LAX and our intrepid photog wondered -- what would the "Parts Unknown" host serve if asked to cater a peace talk meeting between the U.S. Prez and North Korea's dictator?

Check it out ... pretty clear where Bourdain stands with what he'd serve. HINT -- it's vegetarian, but also deadly.

Bad boy and convicted felon Martin Shkreli may be heading to jail way sooner than he thought, because the United States government wants to put him behind bars NOW, after threatening Hillary Clinton.

The Justice Dept. just filed docs, obtained by TMZ, which states Shkreli, who is out on $5 million bail pending sentencing for securities fraud, has engaged in a "pattern of threats and harassment that warrant his detention pending sentencing." Government lawyers want his bail revoked, NOW.

The last straw was Shkreli offering $5,000 to anyone who would "grab" some of Clinton's hair during her book tour. Government lawyers say Shkreli has a huge social media following who would take the challenge seriously, and as a result the Secret Service has been spending money and using resources to deal with the threat.

The lawyers also note Shkreli has harassed 2 women, notably a journalist who shunned him, to which he responded on Twitter, "If I'm acquitted I get to f*** Lauren Duca."

Eazy-E may be gone, but he's certainly not forgotten -- his daughter made sure of it by posing for a sexy photo shoot with a Chevy Impala on his birthday.

Ebie slapped on some lingerie and posed in front of the classic car her dad helped make more famous -- all to celebrate his Thursday birthday. Eazy would've been 53.

We're told Ebie did the shoot with legendary West Coast photog Mike Miller, who worked with her pops and other '90s rap stars.

Full disclosure: She posed with a '63 Impala, not a '64. And this'll blow your mind -- Eazy actually drove a '63 himself. Guess it just rhymed better.

Ebie's gone to bat for her deceased father before, so it's no surprise she was down to do something to remember his name yet again.

And remember we do ...

Brian Austin Green is incredulous at people who have gone after his 4-year-old son who routinely goes out in public wearing dresses.

Brian was interviewed by TMZ alum Dax Holt, who now runs Hollywood Pipeline, and the former 90210 star says choosing to wear dresses, goggles ... who cares?

And then Brian gives a rare, candid peek into controlling the paparazzi by actually tipping them off to where he, Megan Fox and their brood are heading. He says the trade-off is a no-brainer, especially on vacay ... 5 minutes of posing, in return for 2 weeks of peace.

Katie Holmes is beaming now that she and Jamie Foxx have gone public, and her look should make you green with envy.

Katie was smiling ear to ear in NYC Thursday, the day after TMZ posted the pics that finally confirmed her longtime romance with Foxx. We're guessing she's attending Fashion Week events, and she'll fit right in with a form-fitting dress like this one.

As we showed you, JamKat packed on the PDA in Malibu Monday. Doesn't look like she has any regrets about their coming out party. Besides, we all knew.

Teresa Jo Burchfield, whose husband is an ethics attorney for President Trump's business, allegedly got caught banging a Virginia jail inmate.

53-year-old Burchfield was arrested Tuesday in a parking lot next to Fauquier County Jail. Deputies say she was in the backseat of a car having sex with a 23-year-old inmate. The inmate was a trustee, meaning he was allowed to do work outside the jail. Cops say he had cigarettes, clothing and "workout" supplements which he allegedly got from Burchfield.

Teresa's husband is Bobby R. Burchfield, who was retained in January as an ethics advisory for the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust.

Lil Wayne's back grinding in the recording studio -- despite doctor's orders to cool out -- and he has an All-Star guest with him.

Damian Lillard was hanging with Weezy Thursday at a studio we believe to be in Los Angeles. Lillard captioned the pic "#Confirmed" ... letting fans know the rumors are true, they're doing a track together. This is also the first time we've seen Wayne since his hospitalization earlier this week.

TMZ broke the story ... Wayne suffered multiple seizures Sunday in Chicago. Doctors released him Tuesday, but recommended he chill at home for at least 2 weeks.

So much for that. He and the Portland Trail Blazers superstar clearly had work to do.

That's pretty much what mega-producer Scott Storch said when he posted his own shot with Wayne.

Mike Epps is officially a single man, but it's gonna cost him.

A judge just signed off on his divorce from Mechelle McCain Epps, his wife of 12 years, and the property settlement shows just how rich they are.

Mike walks away with 10 -- count them -- 10 properties in Indiana. He keeps his 2016 Mercedes, his 2015 Jeep Cherokee, '79 Caddy and 2011 Suzuki chopper.

Now the pain.

Epps pays Mechelle $25k a month in spousal support for a total of 6 1/2 years, but if she remarries he stops paying. He also has to pay $15k a month in support for their 2 children. He's also footing the bill for their private school.

And Mike and Mechelle split royalties from his numerous movie and TV roles, including "The Hangover," "Hancock" and "Girl Trip."

Mechelle walks away with a small fleet of cars herself, including a 2014 Bentley, 2013 Mercedes, 2015 Toyota Prius and a 2013 Land Rover.

The couple will sell their family home in Encino and split the profits.

Monica thinks it's great Barack Obama got his own section of a freeway in the L.A. area -- but says they got the neighborhood wrong when they picked it.

We got the R&B singer at LAX, where she congratulated 44 for getting a section of the 134 Freeway -- between Glendale and Pasadena -- named after him. She had a list of reasons why it's totally deserved.

She also thinks he deserves a different stretch of freeway. As our photog says, what Obama got is "way out in the cuts" ... near Occidental College. Monica and our photog have a more, umm ... urban location in mind.

Yes, Obama is an Occidental alum, but still ... Monica ain't satisfied.
