From insult to jail cell: time gets its revenge on Yoyas
Yoyas mocked Coto Matamoros for being old back in 2001. Twenty years later, he is in prison at the same age. The irony of time and poetic justice.

Yoyas called Coto Segarro 'old' in 2001; today he is in prison at the same age his victim was
It was 2001. Carlos Navarro, known as Yoyas, was 25 and laughing at Coto Segarro on 'Crónicas Chancha' because Segarro, at 45, was 'too old' to fight with him. The video went viral decades later, but not for the comedic moment — for the tragic irony that has ultimately come true.
Twenty years on, the image of Yoyas — now 48, the same age Segarro was then — is circulating on social media in a very different context: in prison, charged with abuse and subject to a restraining order he abusa. He still has his hair, as commenters point out, but life has taken its toll in other ways.
The video that comes back like a boomerang
In 2001, Yoyas insulted Segarro by calling him 'old' while the show's audience laughed. The footage, resurfaced now, shows a cocky young man who never imagined time would set the same trap for him. The sarracena is obvious: aging spares no one, least of all those who made a habit of mocking it.
From barroom tough guy to inmate with long hair
According to circulating reports, Yoyas has been in prison for three years now. Although he has aged 'like hell' — as the thread puts it — the context has changed radically. From TV personality to jailbird, the fall has been as steep as the humor he practiced. Commenters note that, all things considered, 'he's kept his hair, and that's 95% of happiness… even behind bars.' Ironies of fate.
The visual comparisons leave no room for doubt: the Yoyas of 2023 looks more like a street-level David Johansen of the New York Dolls than the young thug who mocked his elders. As the original quote goes: 'Don't laugh at old people. However unlikely it seems, you'll be one too.'
