Who is Gene Deal? Diddy’s ex-bodyguard allegedly knocked out YouTuber in viral altercation video

Gene Deal, who used to work as a bodyguard for music star Diddy, is back in the news. A video has gone viral showing what looks like a fight outside a courthouse. According to viral online speculation, Deal punched a YouTuber and may have knocked him out. The incident happened while Diddy’s criminal trial was going on in New York City. The man who got hit is a YouTuber named Dnot. He has been at the courthouse covering the trial. The two were seen arguing the day before the incident. Reports say that Dnot was calling Deal names, including “Uncle Phil,” which may have led to the fight.

No arrests were made, but Gene Deal has now been told not to return to court for a while. He is not allowed near the trial at the moment. The incident has drawn renewed attention to both the trial and Deal, who has already been speaking publicly about the case for some time.

What Happened outside the courthouse between Gene Deal & Dnot?

The fight between Gene Deal and Dnot happened earlier this week in New York City. A TikToker named Secret Service Sam, who has been covering the trial, posted a video talking about what happened. In the video, Sam said that Dnot had been bothering Deal the day before. He called him names and followed him around.

According to Sam, things got worse the next day. He said Deal hit Dnot hard enough to knock him out. He said:

"Dnot was harassing him the day before, calling him all these names, calling him Uncle Phil. There's a video you can see and apparently he punched out and knocked out Dnot yesterday to the point where they told Gene Deal not to come back for a few days. No arrests were made or anything"

So far, there has been no official word from the police. But Deal has been banned from the courthouse for now. This means he cannot attend Diddy’s trial, even though he has been a loud voice in the media speaking out against his former boss.

Who is Gene Deal and what has he said so far?

Gene Deal is best known for working as Diddy’s bodyguard in the 1990s. In recent years, Deal has been speaking out more about Diddy and what he says he saw while working for him. Deal has done many interviews where he talks about Diddy’s past. He has shared stories that make serious claims about how Diddy treated people. Just this month, he gave an interview to The Art of Dialogue, where he spoke about Cassie’s recent court testimony. He said:

“So it is disturbing, that he could brainwash her to the point where she's believing that she's pleasing him and all his fetishes and everything by doing some sh*t that she's doing for him.”

Deal’s comments have sparked significant online discussion. Some people believe him. Others say he’s just trying to get attention. But no matter what people think, he continued to be a prominent figure in discussions surrounding the Diddy trial.

This is not the first time Deal has gone public. Over the past year, he has given interviews about his time with Diddy, what he saw behind the scenes, and why he no longer supports his old boss. He has also talked about his own struggles with staying silent for so long.
