Andrew Tate is showing dedication to his upcoming Misfits Boxing debut as he was recently spotted with a black eye. The former kickboxing world champion is set to face actor-turned-boxer Chase DeMoor in Dubai on December 20 as the main event of Misfits 23. Tate’s last kickboxing match was five years ago when he defeated Cosmin Lingurar.
Facing the reigning heavyweight champion under the Misfits banner, DeMoor is a tough challenge for Tate. DeMoor won the heavyweight title last year by defeating KELZ and successfully defended it against Tank Tolman and Natan Marcon. Tate, 38, is preparing rigorously for his debut, training with notable UFC veterans, as seen in a recent iFL TV interview where he displayed his black eye.
Tate acknowledged the intense sparring that led to his black eye, emphasizing the importance of pushing oneself to improve. Despite his financial security, Tate expressed his excitement for returning to the ring, stating that he has no regrets about the risks he takes in life. He views his upcoming fight with DeMoor as a challenge he eagerly anticipates, aiming to surprise the world with his performance.
The highly anticipated fight between Tate and DeMoor is scheduled for December 20 at the Coca Cola Arena in Dubai. While the official fight times are pending confirmation, the main card is expected to start around 6 pm UK time. Tate is likely to enter the ring first around 9 pm UK time for the main event. Viewers can expect the fight to take place at 1 am local time in Dubai on Sunday. Timings may vary based on the undercard duration, and broadcasting details are yet to be disclosed.
