The Lion Angels player got into a physical altercation with rapper UnoTheActivist after the latter made remarks about Julian’s girlfriend.

After Julian’s girlfriend taunted Uno, he made some remarks, that Newman did not like. Newman quickly went on to confront the rapper and squared up. FaZe Clan member Jasontheween stepped in to stop the interaction, which later turned into a fight. Before the interaction, Newman asked Max why he was allowing Uno to play. Max tried to deescalate the situation by asking both parties to calm down and stop reacting. After the fight broke out, Plaqueboymax was visibly upset and abruptly ended the livestream. Before ending the stream, Max asked the cameraman to end the stream:

“I’ll see y’all N****s tomorrow bro, I’m not doing this sh*t.”

Following the incident, Newman posted several Instagram stories seemingly targeted towards Uno. He also announced that he would be streaming on Twitch and explaining the situation in a livestream. He linked his new official Twitch channel, which has 40 followers as of this writing. Newman posted a 2-minute TikTok video where he accused the rapper of “clout-chasing.”
