Fouseytube explains why he has \u201cno purpose\u201d after boxing loss Fousey, InstagramYouTube star Yousef \u201cFouseytube\u201d Arakat ended his social media hiatus with a debut in the boxing ring, facing off against fellow YouTuber \u201cSlim\u201d on September 29. His subsequent loss is apparently affecting more than his fight record. Fouseytube suffered a debilitating defeat in the boxing ring against Slim, walking away with a broken nose that ultimately required surgery. Although their fight purse went to charity, Fouseytube is taking his loss hard, as evidenced by his social media posts after the bout. However, a now-deleted Instagram story from the YouTube star is sparking concern across the net, with Fousey admitting that he is suffering from depression in wake of the fight and feeling like he has \u201cno purpose.\u201d \u201cWith the boxing event, I had purpose,\u201d Fousey explained. \u201cSomething to work towards every day. Something to look forward to. Something to live for. Now that it\u2019s over, depression hit HARD.\u201d 500https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B3tzl1xgOo9\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Arakat went on to explain that, with his friends moving away and his family leaving, he feels \u201calone\u201d and \u201csad,\u201d claiming that he needed to openly express his current feelings to his audience. This wouldn\u2019t be the first time Fousey\u2019s mental health has been center stage, though: the star infamously sparked concern in summer 2018, after his \u201cJuly 15\u201d event was canceled in wake of a supposed bomb threat, with the YouTuber hopping on top of the roof of a car to make an impassioned speech to his fans. (Timestamp: 1:04 for mobile viewers) Arakat opened up about the debacle on an episode of Logan Paul\u2019s \u201cimPaulsive\u201d podcast in February 2019, where he explained that he\u2019d stopped taking mood stabilizers before the event and had instead opted for Adderall. Calling the incident a \u201ctrainwreck\u201d and an \u201cexplosion,\u201d Fousey claimed that he hadn\u2019t been able to move past the \u201cJuly 15\u201d failure \u2013 nor the backlash surrounding the incident. Arakat took a hiatus from social media in wake of the debacle, returning in 2019 with a new purpose in boxing. Although his first bout didn\u2019t end in his favor, it doesn\u2019t look like the star is slowing down anytime soon \u2013 and is even embracing his defeat with a full-length documentary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
