Yusaf Mack suffers a couple of heavy blows in the ring

[denilson200]

He's received too many blows - and then there's the boxing (lol)

Obviously the guy is broke with 10 kids to look after and was desperate enough to go into porno. But did he actually think that this would not get out ? Did he think he could make a porn vid, gay OR straight, and that no one would notice him ? He can be embarrassed as much as he wants but don't insult people's intelligence because you will earn no pity that way. Also - What were the friends doing watching hardcore gay threesome videos? Hmmmmm.

How come he has ten kids, don't they sell condoms in Philadelphia ?

This is not boxing. I hate to even entertain gay transgender news.

Just admit Mack. You can be the boxing world's Michael Sam and become a celebrity.

Boxing produced a tabloid-friendly story earlier in the week, when the out-of-the-ring activities of Philly fighter Yusaf Mack made headlines.

The boxer was mortified when word spread that he’d been filmed for a same-sex adult movie and he offered an explanation with a counter-punch that he’d been drugged and didn’t recall the performance.

The company which released the material, DawgPoundUSA.com, offered this take when asked for a statement of Mack’s version of events.

DawgPoundUSA.com is a reputable company which has produced high quality videos of men-of-color since 2002. At no time have we ever coerced or drugged any of our models. The claims made by Mr. Mack are false, slanderous, and vehemently denied on our part. We intend to take all legal steps necessary to protect our good name and reputation against these patently false and preposterous claims.

Some wondered why this is a newsworthy story, by the way. It is newsworthy first and foremost, probably, because it is surprising. This sort of occurrence hasn’t popped into the fight game milieu before. Also, the private lives of public figures are interesting to “regular” folks. That a fairly high-level fighter, at one time, who’d made some decent money in the sport was reduced to getting involved in such a practice to make ends meet is not a new development but one that is sadly repetitive. That the cycle repeats itself doesn’t mean it is any less distressing. Also, being that Mack was involved with men in the scenes brings up the issue of how athletes and the public treat homosexuality within the sports world.

It was illuminating to see some folks reacting with a “Live and let live” POV on the matter…so recognizing the story and reporting it allows us to gauge our collective viewpoints on a provocative issue. Also, there was a salacious element to it. It is a tabloid-ready story and, like it or not, there is a considerable appetite for such fare. Like it or not, the people want this sort of story. Hopefully, it can be done in a way that maybe educates us and not merely to satiate our appetite for sensational and lurid stories.

If the adult film company sues Mack and he loses the case , he is fucked

Who knows he might have stumbled into his next occupation. He could still wind up a headliner!

To me there is nothing more queer than caring what another man does sexually.

Mack is gay and it was all a lie. More shocking, he has a 23 year old daughter and he's like 35!

Mack has come out as gay,

I think Yusaf should just swallow his pride, and move forward. Sure.... he's just slid down a few notches on life's totem pole, but it's not the end of the world. He should keep a stiff upper lip, and plunge ahead into life's new challenges. It's not going to be easy for him to keep a good head on his shoulders, but he's got to remain ready for what's coming. He might have a hard time dealing with some of the problems that may rise up... but there's no problem that can't be licked if you plow into it. You can't solve all problems at once... sometimes you have to reach for the low-hanging fruit.
