Memba when Conor McGregor said he could whoop Jesus Christ's ass in an MMA fight?

Well, seems the two have finally made peace.

McGregor was at the news conference for the UFC 197 fight against Rafael dos Anjos ... when a fan asked Raf if he was offended by Conor's comments, since he's a very religious guy.

Raf essentially says Conor will feel Jesus' wrath come fight time ... but Conor says he ain't worried, since he and JC are cool, bro.

It's pretty funny stuff.

This is weird.

Multiple law enforcement agencies and emergency responders tell TMZ Sports they cannot find any record of the crash described by Pats player Darius Fleming ... in which he allegedly pulled a woman out of a burning car.

Fleming told the media he got 22 stitches in his right calf after kicking out the window of a burning car that had been involved in a 3 car crash just north of a Dunkin’ Donuts on Route 1 in Massachusetts near Gillette Stadium on Thursday night.

Fleming described the accident in great detail -- but when we called police and fire rescue in the area -- nobody had any record of a crash that matched Fleming's account.

Now, we're not saying it didn't happen ... but it's bizarre.

We called all of the Dunkin' Donuts shops off Route 1 in a 5 mile radius from the stadium -- and no one saw or heard of a crash Thursday night.

-- Massachusetts State Police (We spoke to reps for the state police and the Foxborough barracks)
-- Foxborough Police Dept.
-- Foxborough Fire Dept.
-- Walpole Police Dept.
-- Walpole Fire Dept.
-- Wrentham Police Dept.
-- Wrentham Fire Dept.
-- Norwood Police Dept.
-- Norwood Fire Dept.
-- Plainville Police Dept & Fire Dept.
-- Sharon Fire Dept.
-- Sharon Police Dept.

The note we keep getting from officials is that NO ONE had even heard about a crash matching Fleming's description until Fleming mentioned it to the media.

There's an outside chance (and highly unlikely) that a distant fire and rescue team may have responded ... but officials who were listening to the scanners that night say they didn't hear anything.

We also reached out to both Fleming and his agent to try and get more info -- so far, we haven't heard anything back.

If Usher can act as well as he throws a punch, he's gonna kill as boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard in the upcoming Roberto Duran biopic "Hands of Stone."

Usher's actually been training for 2 years at Decatur Boxing Club outside Atlanta. The club's owner Xavier Biggs tells us his student put in two-a-days -- 2 hours a day, 6 days a week and even met with Sugar Ray to prepare for the role in the film.

Filming has wrapped, but Usher hasn't stopped climbing into the ring. Biggs -- whose brother won Olympic gold -- says the singer's gotten so good he can hang with the pros.

It already happened to one NY Jets star ... now Eric Decker's also concerned about getting a vasectomy because he's worried his swimmers are simply TOO STRONG to be stopped!!!

The Jets WR and his wife Jessie James were out in NYC -- without their 2 kids -- when we asked if they would ever take Antonio Cromartie's lead and surgically shut down E.D.'s baby maker.

That's when Jessie expressed her concerns saying, "We'll totally be that couple like them that gets pregnant again ... we're really fertile."

There's more ... we also asked the insanely attractive couple if they've ever given each other a hall pass to bang other people. Wait'll you hear their answers.

Just one problem -- they're both rich, famous and beautiful enough to ACTUALLY bang their fantasy people!!

NY Knicks' James Dolan is having a good week ... his team is winning ... and his band just landed a huge gig ... TO OPEN FOR JEWEL!!!

Dolan -- who's worth BILLIONS -- was out in NYC this morning when he broke the big news about his band JD & The Straight Shot.

FYI -- James is the founder and frontman of the blues inspired rock band ... and told us they're going on tour with Jewel in March to promote their new album.

There's more ... we also asked him about the Knicks rising Latvian superstar Kristaps Porzingis -- and he told us the team would be open to play a game in KP's home country next season!

TMZ Sports has learned the Foxborough Police Department is now looking into the crash claims made by Patriots linebacker Darius Fleming ... and as one law enforcement source put it, "It's starting to look like Manti Te'o."

Here's what we know ... the Foxborough PD has no knowledge of a Thursday night crash similar to one described by Fleming -- in which he claims he pulled a woman out of a smoking car after smashing a window.

We're told the FPD has been calling other agencies around the area -- and so far, no one has heard of anything resembling Fleming's tale.

As one law enforcement source put it -- "What he described is not a minor accident. It's definitely something we would have heard about."

The source adds, "Nobody knows what's going on."

We're told cops are looking to speak with Fleming ASAP.

With Ray Rice set to coach the National Team at the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl -- we noticed an interesting name on the roster ... troubled ex-TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin.

Rice has previously told TMZ Sports he's looking forward to the opportunity to help mentor some of the players on the team ... and now it seems he'll get his chance.

Of course, Boykin made headlines when he was arrested for attacking bar staffers and cops in a late night rager just a few nights before the Alamo Bowl.

Rice is technically on the team as a co-running back coach -- but if there's anyone who needs life coaching, it's Boykin ... so, it'll be interesting to see if Ray takes a special interest in the kid and if he can actually have an impact.

Ex-USC tight end Bryce Dixon -- who was kicked off the football team last year -- was arrested for carjacking near the USC campus ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us .. the 6'5", 250-pounder was busted Tuesday afternoon -- and taken to a nearby jail where he was booked. Bail was set at $100,000.

We're told the investigators are still working on the case.

With GB Packers coach Mike McCarthy ripping Eddie Lacy for being out of shape this season -- there's one man who says he can save the embattled running back ... THE P90X GUY!!!!

In case you missed it ... Lacy was heavily criticized for appearing larger than usual when he arrived to camp to kick off the 2015 season ... and never seemed to drop the excess weight.

McCarthy says Lacy needs to get his ass in shape for next season ... or else.

Enter fitness mega-mogul Tony Horton -- creator of the world famous P90X program -- who says he would LOVE the opportunity to PERSONALLY train Lacy this off-season ... because he's confident he get real results.

Horton tells us he's already got a 3-month bootcamp style plan in mind -- which would get Lacy back into top form.

"Time is ticking ... so it's time for him to step up."

BTW, a bunch of NFL stars have raved about P90X -- including Ray Lewis.

Spike Lee says Hollywood needs to take its cue from the NFL -- forcing studios to institute a "Rooney Rule" ... requiring studios to greenlight a certain number of movies featuring minorities.

Lee was on 'GMA' Wednesday morning when he said the problem with the Oscars is deeper than who gets nominated -- it's the fact black movies and black actors aren't getting the opportunities in the Hollywood boardrooms.

That's why Lee wants a "Rooney Rule" -- an NFL policy that requires teams to interview at least one minority candidate for head coaching and minority jobs.

Lee feels that someone needs to force Hollywood to hit a mandatory quota when it comes to making minority films.

Watch the clip ... seems Michael Strahan is down to play the role of enforcer.

Roddy White just went all Randy Travis when describing his future in the NFL -- telling TMZ Sports, "I'm a Falcon forever and ever, amen."

The ATL wide receiver was at LAX recently when we brought up that his contract with the team ends at the end of the 2017 season ... and where he sees his career going.

White made a pretty strong statement.

BONUS -- we also asked White about the other sport in his life ... ping pong.

Turns out, Roddy takes the sport pretty seriously and says he's already bought a new table to boost his training sessions.

Meantime, enjoy some Randy Travis ...

GRONK JOKE!!!

With the AFC Championship just days away, Rob Gronkowski threw some Twitter shade at the Denver Broncos ... with a BJ joke.

Gronk gonna Gronk.

WWE Hall of Famer Tammy Sytch -- aka Sunny -- says she wants to rip a page from the Kim K playbook and star in a sex tape to help her career ... as long as the money's right.

Chalk up another victory for Conor McGregor -- 'cause TMZ Sports has learned the UFC superstar will NOT be charged with a crime for allegedly driving around with a firearm in Ireland.

As we previously reported, cops in Conor's home country launched an investigation into the champ after he posted a picture appearing to show himself pointing a gun out of the window of a car.

McGregor later fessed up to brandishing the weapon ... but claimed the firearm was nothing more than an Airsoft gun he was using to practice for a possible movie role.

BTW, even brandishing an Airsoft gun in public could be a violation an Ireland.

But good news for Conor ... a rep for the Irish Police Force tells us the investigation is over and officials have determined "no offense was committed."

Congrats!

Eric Dickerson has a warning to the Rams players -- BEWARE OF THE L.A. WOMEN!!!

The Rams legend was at LAX when he told us he knows what it's like to be young, rich and famous in L.A. -- and says the young guys moving west need to be VERY aware of the cleat chasers looking to take advantage of an athlete.

"Young players have to look out for some of these girls ... because let's just be honest this ain't St. Louis."

He adds, "There are some beautiful women out here and a lot of these girls they hear the Rams are coming to town they like, 'Oh, I'm gonna get me a football player ... I'm gonna get my rent paid."

Manti Te'o has officially rebounded from Lennay Kekua (R.I.P.) ... and his new girlfriend is a smokin' hot model.
