Professional-boxer-turned-adult-film-performer Yusaf Mack has made headlines again, but this time it’s not for claiming he was drugged and had no memory whatsoever of filming a steamy gay porno.
The 37-year-old father of 10, who came out two years ago, got into a physical altercation with another man at an LA Clippers barber shop in Philadelphia earlier this week and, of course, being the digital age, the whole thing was caught on tape.

According to TMZ Sports, a fight broke out between Mack and Hector Echevarria while Echevarria was getting a shampoo.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Echevarria had allegedly sent homophobic tweets to Mack from his Twitter account, which has been switched to private. Mack told TMZ that Echevarria “had it coming” after all the awful things he had said online.

But according to TMZ, Echevarria was undaunted by the assault, writing on Facebook shortly afterwards: “I rather have a video of some beating me up then a video of someone seeing me take a d*** up my a** any day.”
“Me and him gonna fight again,” he added.
See the video below. And remember, kids, violence is never the answer.

Oh gurl. Looks like he fu*ked you good. You took it well though. All down on the floor with your legs up in the air. Now she wants a rematch. Just more private.

Can’t condone violence for any reason – but I can understand why he did it. Here in the UK that kind of troll thing is a criminal act and the person would be prosecuted for ‘hate crime’.
Bob LaBlah
This is one time I sure as hell did condone violence. This FOOL clearly thought the guy wasn’t going to get tired of hearing that shit? Plus he couldn’t fight either? I don’t know what the hell it is about a barber shop that makes people talk shit regardless of what ethnic group the barber shop clientele happens to be.
davidkohl
Must be an American thing and barber shops …..however, we are civilised people allegedly, and violence is not the way to deal with those who upset us – that’s the hallmark of the repulsive right wing. perhaps you need to have stronger hate crime laws in your country. I completely sympathise with the boxer, and I am not saying you should ‘turn the other cheek’. But two wrongs don’t make a right as my mother used to tell me. The problem is that discrimination in the USA is a national pastime – whether it be racism, sexism or homophobia. The rule of law rather than the rule of the jungle is the path to go down.

Aren’t boxers hands considered lethal weapons? Like a gun or knife?
davidkohl
short answer is yes.
scotshot
It depends…

So many think that gay guys are ‘pansy-@$$es’, with limp wrists. Well, guess what? This proved that to be incorrect, didn’t it? I just hate it for the guy on the floor. Next time he will keep his comments to himself, won’t he?

lol..lol well done Yusuf.
History has proven that violence does indeed solve many things.
davidkohl
What has been proven to be solved by violence? That one person or group impose their will on another ? That you get revenge? That violence is ok when you are the one doing it? That it is ok to lose your temper and inflict possible fatal consequences on someone- however repugnant they might be? We dont live in the ‘wild west’ – we have the rule of law. If you expect the law to look after your interests then you are should not be condoning the breaking of it for other people that you consider ‘deserve it’. This is not a political question – it is a humanitarian one. We are supposed to be better than those who oppose us – not equally stupid and violent. Violence solves nothing – it merely normalises and desensitises us to it. Fighting fire with fire is not a literal thing. If people really want change it has to be political. The Odious Man in the White House ‘won’ because a lot of us did not take he threat seriously and failed to galvanise the voters. That is why you now get people like the guy in the barbershop feeling free to do what he did. If you want to stop him then you have to stop the ringleaders – the gangsters currently ensconced in the White House. That is not done by violence – its done through voting and protest and holding them responsible.

Actually Nazi Germany and Hitler were stopped by violence, many dictators have been stopped by violence, abusers of women have been stopped by violence. Sometimes the only thing left for you to do is resort to violence. Do I wish we had a government that would care enough to create laws to prevent this type of bullying? Yes. Do I wish this troll would learn his lesson and stop this behavior? Yes. Do I wish this man didn’t have to resort to violence? Yes. Sometimes the only thing bullies respond to is violence. Would I forgive a transgendered student that has been picked on and bullied for an entire school year if they clapped back and punched out their bully? Yes- I would rather have that teen resort to violence over suicide.

davidkol, get an EDUCATION. You obviously have ZERO knowledge of history.
Look up revolutions and slave revolts and wars against imperialism……..

Life comes at you fast. I typically don’t condone violence but ain’t nobody above an ass whoopin. My ultimate motto is: don’t start none, won’t be none!!!!

I’ve had to get, um, physical before as well. And I’d do it again if I’m absolutely pushed (I got a husband and kid now. Gotta try to avoid the rachetness if possible). However, Yusaf is a bit of a mess. He had all those babies with all those women to prove his manhood- probably got into boxing for that reason as well- and is now a mediocre porn performer. Also, he’s never bottomed in his scenes. So, the troll is misinformed.
PRINCE OF SNARKNESS aka DIVKID
He did bottom.. I’m ashamed to confirm.
Donston
So, the troll was informed….
I’ve only watched three scenes with him, mainly due to “oh, that’s that gay boxer with all those kids” curiosity. He topped in all three and was terrible in all three.
Kangol
He bottomed in the clip for DawgpoundUSA (hint hint).
Bob LaBlah
I though we all knew by now there is no such thing as a complete “bottom” or “top” in the gay world anymore. What one won’t do on camera belies what they will do off camera. Get real people. That line of thinking is soooooo last century.
Donston
Don’t get in your feelings. First, there are still men who only want to top or bottom. Thankfully, that number has declined in recent years. Secondly, I thought he hadn’t bottomed on camera. I wasn’t talking about his personal sex life.
Ogre Magi
Good for him, we need more gay heroes
davidkohl
There are plenty of gay heroes if you look around you and I find it strange that this man’s sexual position is somehow relevant to this article. As I said before, I have sympathy for anyone who is attacked for being gay – or for being a particular race or gender or age or size or anything else that is unfair. However, I am disappointed that so many people on here seem to think what he did was ok – it was not ok. He is an adult, not a child who can’t control his temper. One of the basic premises of justice is that the punishment should fit the crime. His childish homophobic behaviour does not require having his head attacked and beaten – not least for the sake of the boxer himself. How about if we all just attack people when we don’t like what they say about us? We have laws so that chaos and mob rule has no place in our civilisation. As an oppressed minority, we can’t be hypocritical by doing things to others that we don’t like done to ourselves. If you want gay heroes just look in any area of any city and you will find them – they will not be the glamorous ‘stars’, the brave sportsmen who have come out – they will e ordinary people who have spent years fighting the repulsive right wing in the USA, and other countries, for equality. The greatest heroes in history have all been non-violent. That troll will not stop being homophobic – violence is not a cure.

I see from his Facebook page Hector Echevarria is a member of Daily Inspirations bible group and see on Twitter he is a failed boxer. Holy Jeebuz, Hector! You fit the profile of a classic on line bully. But your meet up with Mack wasn’t on line, was it?
Scotty2Naughty
Got his ass beat and still talking shit. I think Mack went too easy on him in that barber shop.
