HIP HOP WIRED: Lil Wayne has always been outspoken about his love of sports. But the diehard Green Bay Packers fan’s alleged heckling of the Dallas Cowboys’ Dez Bryant may have led to an altercation with the star wide receiver at Miami’s Club LIV this past Sunday (January 15).

According to the Miami Herald’s David Smiley, a Miami Beach Police Department source says that Weezy is the “famous rapper” that was previously reported to have gotten into it with Bryant at the luxurious night club this past weekend.

The Dallas Morning News reports that the altercation started when someone mocked both Bryant’s performance on the field and his recent financial woes. Last December, the Endurance Capital Fund threatened to sue Bryant claiming the former Oklahoma State standout failed to repay a $100,000 loan. According to the star receiver’s mentor, David Wells, Bryant and his crew were detained but not arrested by MBPD after what he described as a verbal altercation.

MBPD sources told the Miami New Times that there is no record of Bryant being detained but did confirm that there was “a bit of a melee outside LIV that night with a drunk patron striking a security guard.”
