As News You Should Know reported yesterday, NFL star Braylon Edwards punched 28-year-old Edward Givins in the face  outside of a Cleveland area nightclub early Monday morning. And “The King” is not happy about it.

NBA superstar LeBron James called Edwards childish for punching his friend who is a promoter at the night club, according to ESPN.com.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer has James entire statement.

Givins said he was attacked because of his friendship with James.

Givens told Cleveland.com ”Braylon comes up and started saying things, degrading me,” Givens said. “He said if it wasn’t for LeBron [James] or the Four Horsemen [James' friends and business partners], I wouldn’t have what I have, nor would I be able to get girls. Everyone knows Braylon has a problem with LeBron. Whatever jealousy he has with LeBron, he felt he needed to take it out on me.”
