Andrew Tate to Debut, Become Misfits CEO

Andrew Tate will make his professional boxing debut on December 20, 2025, in Dubai, headlining a Misfits Boxing card billed as “Misfits Mania/The Fight Before Christmas” against Misfits heavyweight champion Chase DeMoor. Tate has announced he is assuming the CEO role at Misfits Boxing following the departure of former CEO and co-founder KSI. A former kickboxer who says his record is 76-9-1 (32 KOs) and last fought in 2020, Tate has trained for this first sanctioned boxing match, though independent records show fewer verified fights. Tate is a polarizing influencer who has been banned from major platforms for misogynistic speech and is facing criminal allegations and investigations, which he denies. The announcement has split opinion between critics who warn against platforming a reviled figure and promoters who emphasize the commercial appeal and spectacle of influencer boxing.
