Angelina Jolie’s son Knox delivered a graduation speech his classmates won’t soon forget.
The 17-year-old dropped a jubilant F-bomb as he discussed his upcoming martial arts showdown – where he predicted a knock-out fight.
Video posted online shows Knox taking to the podium in his blue cap and gown, along with Tibetan prayer flags and a lei draped over his shoulders and around his neck.
Proud mom Angelina, 51, sat in the crowd, recording the speech on her phone.
‘Tonight, I’m gonna be fighting at Total Sonic Knockout 5 at 12:45 AM, so catch me,’ Knox told classmates during Friday’s ceremony.
‘I’m gonna knock ’em the f**k out!’

True to his word, Knox battled it out in the ring in a brutal martial arts fight that resembled a scene from his estranged father Brad Pitt’s film Fight Club.
A Muay Thai enthusiast, Knox has recently been spotted training and competing in tournaments, and on Friday he showed off his battle-ready physique, channeling Tyler Durden from the 1999 classic.
As he squared off against his opponent in the packed club, Knox took a few hits but stayed composed, landing his own blows with precision in the sweaty, chaotic bout.
For someone so young, he moved like a seasoned fighter, ducking, weaving, and delivering kicks and punches with the confidence of a veteran.
The outing comes just days after Knox joined Jolie and his older siblings – Pax, 22, Maddox, 24, and Zahara, 21, celebrating her graduation at Spelman College – though there was no sign of Pitt himself.
At the ceremony, Knox seemed to channel his father again, sporting dark hair with frosted blond tips reminiscent of Pitt’s signature 90s style.
In an apparent dig at Pitt, Zahara’s name was read at the ceremony as Zahara Marley Jolie, rather than as the hyphenated Jolie-Pitt.
She appeared to publicly remove Pitt’s last name for the first time in her Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority initiation ceremony in late 2023.

Pitt and Jolie were together for about a decade before they married in 2014 but filed for divorce two years later in 2016.
Jolie cited irreconcilable differences and later accused Pitt of abusing both her and their children, which he has denied.
Their lengthy, contentious divorce battle was finalized in late 2024, and since then, many of their kids have dropped Pitt’s surname amid their ongoing estrangement.
Shiloh also now goes by Shiloh Nouvel Jolie as she filed paperwork to legally remove her estranged dad’s surname from her own when she turned 18 in the summer of 2024.
Then, in February, Maddox dropped Pitt from his professional credits as he appeared as Maddox Jolie in the production notes for the film Couture and screenings of the movie Maria.
In May 2024, Vivienne was credited as Vivienne Jolie, not Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, on the playbill for The Outsiders, the Broadway musical.

Pitt made a shocking remark about his family after his bitter divorce with Jolie officially came to an end, but his fractured relationship with their six children remains unresolved.
Pitt, who believes his relationship with two of his children is ‘unfixable,’ opened up about how important family is to him, amid his ongoing and escalating estrangement from his kids.
Speaking at the F1 premiere in Mexico City, he said: ‘No matter the mistake, you just learn from [it] and move on,’ he told ET. ‘It’ll lead to the next success.’
The Oscar winner continued, ‘When you get to my age, you realize how important it is to surround yourself with the people you love, the people that love you back.’
‘Friends, family, and that’s it,’ he added. ‘From there, we get to go make things. It’s a pretty simple, I think, equation.’
