Andrew Tate in Advanced Talks for Misfits Boxing Heavyweight Bout

Andrew Tate, a former kickboxer turned controversial influencer, is reportedly on the verge of signing a deal to fight in a heavyweight boxing match with Misfits Boxing, a promotion co-founded by British YouTuber KSI that specializes in influencer bouts. This fight would mark Tate's first boxing match and his return to combat sports after his last kickboxing bout in 2020. An official announcement could be made as soon as a Misfits Boxing event in Manchester, England, this weekend, with the fight potentially taking place in Dubai or the United States. Tate has been training regularly since his release from Romania earlier this year, despite facing numerous criminal charges including human trafficking, rape, and money laundering in multiple countries. Both Andrew and his brother Tristan Tate deny the accusations, and a London civil trial is scheduled for June 2026. The deal comes amid ongoing legal challenges but also reflects Tate’s continued public presence and interest in combat sports.
