'Deadliest Catch' Neal Hillstrand Boat Gets Tugged Into Divorce
"Deadliest Catch" star Neal Hillstrand is getting his family fishing vessel dragged into his divorce proceedings with his wife ... but this story doesn't have anything to do with tugboats.
According to divorce docs, obtained by TMZ, Neal agreed to fork over $10,000 to his estranged wife, Sugayle Marie Hillstrand, if he and his brothers ever sell their boat.
The docs show Neal has one-third ownership in "Time Bandit" -- along with his brothers, Captains Johnathan and Andy -- and he's bound to cut a check to his ex if his family ever unloads the fishing boat made famous in Discovery's reality TV series. As best we can tell, "Time Bandit" is currently not up for sale.
Neal filed for divorce Oct. 29, and docs show he gets the former couple's $340,000 house, plus a 1969 Chevy Malibu. She gets their 2 SUVs, a 2012 Sierra and 2006 Envoy.
As part of the divorce, Neal already paid his ex $15k in November and will shell out $1,500 per month over the next 6 months.
But, the biggest catch in this divorce is the boat.

Jon Jones Set to Fight Anthony Smith ... At UFC 235
Well, that was quick!!!
TMZ Sports has learned Jon Jones is signed on to fight Anthony Smith at UFC 235 in March ... as long as the Nevada State Athletic Commission gives him the green light.
As we previously reported, several UFC fighters have been angling to get a crack at Jones after he returned from his suspension to beat up Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 232 last month ... including Luke Rockhold, Corey Anderson and Smith.
But now, we've confirmed ... Jon's next opponent will be 30-year-old Smith, who's currently on a 3 fight win streak after beating Volkan Oezdemir, Shogun Rua and Rashad Evans.
We spoke with Dana White, who tells us ... "Later this month, Jon Jones will file an application for licensure with the NSAC in order to compete at UFC 235 in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 2nd."
"Provided that license is granted, Jones will be defending his Light Heavyweight title against Anthony Smith in a 5 round main event at the T-Mobile Arena."
The issue with the Commission is that Jones tested positive for tiny traces of the anabolic steroid Turinabol just days before UFC 232 -- but the Nevada Athletic Commission couldn't convene for a hearing on such short notice.
UFC went to the California State Athletic Commission, which WAS able to examine the issue and after weighing the evidence, ultimately decided to grant Jones a license.
The CSAC officials say multiple experts concluded the traces of Turinabol were left over from a previous positive test -- meaning Jones did not consume the PED for the UFC 232 fight.
The expectation is the Nevada Commission will see it the same way as California and approve Jones, too.
Smith is currently the #3 ranked light heavyweight -- and just last week told TMZ Sports he's "ready" for Jones. He also told us he wasn't impressed with Jones in the Gustafsson fight.
Should be fun!

Adrien Broner 2 Sex Crime Cases ... On Same Day
Boxing star Adrien Broner has a busy Monday -- he's got dates in TWO courtrooms in TWO states to face TWO separate allegations of sexual misconduct, TMZ Sports has learned.
... and it's all going down just TWO weeks before his mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao.
Here's the deal ... Broner was arrested back in February in Atlanta for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman at a local shopping mall. Cops say he groped her against her will.
Just 4 months later, Broner was arrested again in Cleveland for allegedly throwing himself on top of a woman at a nightclub and forcing her to kiss him. He's facing multiple felony counts including gross sexual imposition and abduction.
As fate would have it ... both cases have been scheduled for January 7 -- and since he can't be in two places at once, he's gotta decide which hearing he wants to attend.
We've learned Broner is planning on sending a lawyer in his place to Ohio -- where he's not required to attend the hearing in person.
Does that mean he'll be in Atlanta instead? Broner has a habit of blowing off court cases ... so, no one really knows where he'll be.
Adrien is facing 5 separate charges for the two incidents ... and if he's convicted on all counts -- he could go to jail for NINE years.
The craziest part of the story -- Broner also has a court date in Florida on Jan. 23 stemming from his arrest for failure to appear in court earlier this month for traffic violations.
In between it all ... Broner's massive fight with Pacquiao is set for Jan. 19 in Las Vegas.

Lil Scrappy's friend, Ca$ino Roulette, still suffers from mental trauma 7 months after their horrific car accident, and he's still battling to bounce back from painful abdominal surgeries.
Ca$ino tells TMZ ... he's going through PTSD from the June wreck, reliving the wreck in nightmares. You'll recall, Scrappy was behind the wheel when he fell asleep, swerved off the road and smashed into a utility pole.
Scrappy broke a foot, but Ca$ino suffered broken ribs, a concussion, bruised lungs, liver and kidneys and a ruptured large intestine.

Doctors had to go back into his stomach when he contracted an infection one month after the wreck ... which prolonged his recovery period.
He says he still has trouble breathing, can't run and can barely lift more than 20 pounds.
Lil Scrappy blamed exhaustion and cops investigating the crash closed the case.
Ca$ino tells us he's just now able to get back to work but as we've reported, he's got no beef with Scrappy. They're still friends, and Ca$ino says he's just thankful to have survived an accident that might've killed most people.

Drake Under Fire for 2010 Concert Vid Shows Him Kissing and Caressing 17-Year-Old
Drake put the moves on a 17-year-old female fan -- including kissing her several times -- during a concert in 2010 ... and now he's being criticized for his actions, which many are calling inappropriate and creepy.
The clip's reportedly from a show at Denver's Ogden Theatre in May 2010. It starts with Drake on stage with the young fan, who he begins slow-dancing with ... before getting behind her and smelling her hair.
He then appears to caress her and kiss her on the neck, and says to the crowd ... "Y'all gonna have me get carried away again. I get in trouble for sh*t like this; how old are you?"
After the girls tells him she's 17, the crowd erupts ... to which Drake replies, "I can't go to jail yet, man! Seventeen? How do you look like that? You thick. Look at all this."
But he doesn't stop there -- he tells the girl he had fun with her and liked the way her breasts felt against his chest ... then goes in for more kisses, including on the lips.
It should be noted Drake was 23 at the time of the video, and age of consent in Colorado is 17 ... but that hasn't stopped many fans from skewering the rapper for his behavior.
And, with Lifetime's "Surviving R. Kelly" fresh on a lot of people's minds ... this Drake video's definitely raising eyebrows.

Our photog couldn't help expressing concern for the famed virgin, cautioning that people on the set needed to have his back in case he dove headfirst into the sea of love.
The premiere airs Monday night, and even though Colton has said being a virgin is only a small part of his composition as a person, it's clearly going to be a big part of the show.

Terrence Howard Kevin Hart's Homophobic Jokes ... All Part of Comedy
Terrence Howard dismisses criticism of Kevin Hart for making homophobic jokes, saying it's all part of the job.
We got Terrance Friday at LAX and he was squarely in Kevin's corner, saying the Academy blew it by passing on him. He went on to say dredging up jokes and tweets from year's past crosses the line, and then insinuated the attack on Kevin might be racial ... pointing to recent comments by Nick Cannon that white comedians made similar homophobic jokes with no consequences.
When our photog pressed, Terrence said it's not a racial thing, but he brings up Nick Cannon's comments a second time.

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro Leaves Club Bloodied ... After Alleged Ashtray Attack
Ronnie Ortiz-Magro walked out of the club dabbing his face with a tissue after Jen Harley allegedly nailed him with an ashtray ... this according to surveillance footage.
In the video -- obtained by TMZ -- you see Ronnie leaving the Hustler Club in Vegas just a little before midnight on New Year's Eve without his baby mama. You can see the "Jersey Shore" star dabbing his face in the clip, which sources at the club tell us was bloodied.
We're told the two arrived together in good spirits ... so it's clear something went down.
We broke the story ... Ronnie filed a battery report with police against Jen over the incident, alleging she hurled the ashtray in his direction during their argument and struck him in the face, cutting his nose, lip and forehead.
When Harley arrived home later, she discovered someone had broken in and smashed the place up ... breaking glass, flipping furniture, destroying artwork and punching a hole in the wall.
Ronnie's been named a person of interest in the ransacking.
There's also video proof he destroyed her security camera during another violent altercation earlier in December.
Ron's a suspect for destruction of property in that case too.

Danielle Staub's Ex She's Got a Bad Image ... So She's Spinning to Play the Victim
Danielle Staub's estranged husband says she's getting serious social media blowback for the way she treats people ... so she's trying to take the heat off herself by making up bogus claims about him.
Marty Caffrey tells TMZ ... Danielle's got a major public relations problem in the wake of the final 3 episodes of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," because they revealed her "horrific" treatment of him, his kids and the other cast members.
He claims bad PR is behind Danielle calling cops to his home this week and it's also why she filed for a protective order against him. According to Marty ... Danielle told him she's been getting "terroristic death threats" online, and she's blaming them on him.
Marty doesn't doubt she's getting threats on social media, and tells us he's looking into them himself to assure their safety ... but denies having any role in them.
As for cops removing him from the house he still lives in with Danielle after she accused him of "emotional torment" and "toying" with her ... Caffrey calls BS. He says the 2 have zero interaction and adds, "That's a joke ... I don't know what kind of mind comes up with this stuff."
Marty also denies Danielle's accusations of dragging out their divorce, claiming she took 2 extra months to respond to his settlement terms and tried to lowball him with an offer on their home.
Marty listed their NJ mansion in November -- allegedly without telling her -- and tells us he's contemplating taking legal action to determine whether or not she can keep living there.
Yep, this divorce seems on course to get way nastier.

David Arquette Back in the Ring ... Loser Loses Hair
David Arquette is a glutton for punishment ... returning to the wrestling ring after a deathmatch that almost killed him.
Arquette took the mic at a news conference Friday night to hype his upcoming match with veteran pro wrestler Jocephus in a "hair match" for the National Wrestling Alliance. The stakes ... loser shaves his head.
NWA President and former Smashing Pumpkins frontman, Billy Corgan, kept the 2 men apart during the faceoff at the Pinnacle Family Entertainment Center in Clarksville, Tennessee.
Jocephus stormed the stage with a VHS copy of Arquette's 2000 pro wrestling movie “Ready to Rumble” ... mocking him as an actor and implying he had no business trying to measure up in the ring.
11/17/18
As we previously showed you, poor David was a bloody, mangled mess last November after getting smashed in the head with a light tube.
The Arquette/Jocephus hair match goes down tonight. At least this time around, the consequences for the 47-year-old Arquette will not be as grave, unless of course the clippers haven't been sharpened.
