Sun Nov 03 05:20:00 UTC 2024: ## Kick Streamer Fousey Suspended Again Following Alleged Altercation and Slur Use
Kick streamer Yousef Saleh Erakat, better known as Fousey, has been banned from the platform following an incident during his Australia-based IRL stream on October 30th. The ban comes just a day after Fousey began a 30-day marathon stream and follows reports of an alleged altercation with his manager and use of homophobic slurs, including the ‘F-word.’
Fousey claims the ban is not solely due to the physical altercation, hinting that there may be other factors at play. He believes Kick is trying to silence him, suggesting he may have information that could potentially harm the platform.
This ban is particularly significant as Fousey recently signed an exclusive deal with Kick, limiting his options to stream elsewhere. While he expressed frustration at the situation, he is unable to switch to Twitch due to contractual obligations.
Fousey acknowledges his actions, stating that he did something wrong but emphasizes the pressure of being a 24/7 live streamer. He hopes Kick will clarify the duration of the ban.
This suspension marks another setback for Fousey, who has previously faced controversy and bans on other platforms. It remains to be seen how this latest ban will affect his future on Kick and beyond.
