Former boxer Yusaf Mac reveals career change to gay porn star

Mack's Boxing Career and Retirement

Yusaf Mack, a former champion boxer with a record of 31 wins, eight defeats, and two draws, has shocked the sports community by revealing his new career as a gay porn star. Mack's 14-year boxing career came to an end with a loss to British legend Carl Froch in a world title fight. After retiring, Mack turned to porn in order to make money.

The Shockwave Amongst Friends and Family

Mack's decision to appear in a gay porn film caused a shockwave among his friends and family, who were unaware of his sexual orientation. At the time of the film, Mack was engaged to a woman and claimed he only participated because he was drugged. It was only after the film's release that he came out publicly as gay.

Inspired by Caitlyn Jenner

It was Caitlyn Jenner's public coming out as transgender that inspired Mack to share his own story. Fearful of the reaction from the sports community, Mack had initially stated he was bisexual before fully embracing his identity as a gay man.

The Emotional Impact on Mack and His Family

Mack, who has ten children, experienced heavy criticism from his own family, including his eldest daughter who told him to kill himself after learning about his porn film. This revelation caused Mack to battle suicidal thoughts and left him in tears.

Mack's Continued Work in the Porn Industry

Mack, despite his initial shame, continued to work in the gay porn industry. He spoke of his love for his job at amateur gay porn site, Reality Dudes.

In an interview with Vlad TV, Mack spoke about his decision to enter the industry: "I was in need of the money. Someone inboxed me on Facebook asking me if I wanted to make some extra money and I said yes, it came out a year later. To this day I haven't watched it."

Reflecting on the moment he discovered his video was circulating, Mack shared, "I was at a family bar and I was wondering why everyone was looking at me strange. Nobody was saying anything or speaking to me so I was like 'what's going on?' One of my homies was like 'come here man, look at this' I was like wow. I walked away and went home and started crying. I was thinking about my children, what would they think."

Mack's story shines a light on the struggles faced by individuals in the sports world when it comes to their sexuality and the impact it can have on their personal and professional lives.
