Boxer in gay porn video says he was drugged

PHILADELPHIA boxer Yusaf Mack enjoyed a pretty decent career as a pro, even fighting for a world title against Carl Froch in 2012.

But he never truly broke through to a level where he could set himself up financially and with 10 kids to care for times became tough.

So in June this year Mack — who describes himself as a “whoremonger” — decided to put his love of women and his impressive physique to good use. By doing porn.

After someone in the industry reached out to him on Facebook, Mack told thePhiladelphia Inquirer he travelled to New York to film a video in an apartment in the Bronx. But things didn’t go according to plan.

As naked women walked around the room, Mack had “a pill and a shot of vodka” to prepare for his scene. And that’s the last thing he remembers.

The 35-year-old, who has a career 31-8 record, says his next conscious thought was when he woke up on a train with $4500 stuffed in his pocket.

He was obviously concerned about what had happened, but it wasn’t until a few months later when friends started telling him about a porn video he was in that was circulating online that Mack understood the true extent of his circumstances.

You see none of the women Mack had seen in the apartment were with him in the X-rated tape. Only two other men, performing a number of sex acts in a graphic threesome.

Mack believes he was drugged. “My whole life, I’ve been what they call a whoremonger. I love females,” Mack told the Inquirer. “The only time I touch a man is when I’m in the ring fighting.”

The Inquirer made repeated efforts to contact the website which published the video without reply. Mack has contemplated launching legal action but has been delayed because he doesn’t know who initially contacted him and can’t recover the messages from his Facebook account because he’s forgotten the password.

The whole saga has taken a heavy toll. “I’m just hurt right now,” he told The Inquirer. “I can’t really sleep at night, but I’m getting by ... Everybody thinks I’m going to hurt myself. I’ve got to stay strong for my children.”
