When he was bench pressing, one guy grabbed him and told him, 'it's your ass, high top!" and three inmates beat him up. Why? Even the deputy asked him, "what did you do, sell them bad stuff on the street?", and he replied, "I want a doctor". So, who were those guys and why did they beat him up?

He was actually what crops and bloods called a "Buster" he was banging on both sides....crops, AND bloods.... Movie was soooo fake...he would've been killed on sight
shareThat movie was an accurate depiction of what cops out here in LA go through when they have to deal with these Crips, Bloods, and Latino gangs.
You're right about him being a buster, but High Top didn't get killed on sight because he was super slick on the streets but not in jail as evidenced by that bludgeoning he got in that weight-lifting yard in jail.
If you really watched High Top's limited part in the film, that dude was super slick in how he dilly-dallied between the Crips and Bloods and when he almost got away from Pac-Man and Hodges when they went after him on Venice beach.
In the 1980s the crack epidemic made it even harder on the LAPD in their defense against these gangs out here. Nowadays, these gang members got warrants and one or two strikes and the way the economy is, they're more concerned with selling drugs and making money than killing rival sets and innocent people in their neighborhoods.
You can still get that ass shot or killed in LA, but gang warfare aint as bad as it was back in the 1980s and 1990s.
The answer was given right there in the scene you quoted. What are you really trying to find out?
shareThe answer was given right there in the scene you quotedNo it isn't. The sheriff ASKED, "did you sell them bad stuff on the street?". So it was a question that never got answered.
