KSI Responds to Andrew Tate’s Misfits CEO Role Ahead of Boxing Debut
KSI has reacted strongly to news of Andrew Tate’s appointment as CEO of Misfits Boxing. This change comes just before Tate’s boxing debut, scheduled for December 20 in Dubai, where he will face Chase DeMoor, a 29-year-old TV personality.
KSI and Misfits Boxing Background
KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, co-founded Misfits Boxing in 2022 with Mams Taylor, Kalle Sauerland, and Nisse Sauerland. As a primary figure in the promotion, he has fought in several bouts, achieving a record of 5 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw.
Andrew Tate’s Controversial Background
Andrew Tate, a 38-year-old former kickboxer and internet personality, has a professional combat sports record of 76 wins, including 32 by knockout. However, he has gained notoriety not only for his athletic career but also for his controversial online presence as a self-described “misogynist.”
Legal Troubles
- Tate currently faces serious legal allegations, including rape and human trafficking.
- In May, the UK Crown Prosecution Service charged him with 10 offenses related to three alleged victims.
- His brother, Tristan Tate, faces 11 similar charges associated with a single alleged victim.
Both brothers deny all allegations, which have led to their ongoing investigations in Romania and the United States. Their legal issues have overshadowed Andrew’s athletic pursuits.
KSI’s Reaction to the CEO Change
In response to Tate’s new role, KSI expressed his frustration on social media platform X. He stated, “This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen in my life,” indicating his disbelief at the decision. KSI also voiced his discontent with Mams Taylor for focusing on Misfits while sidelining his management.
Upcoming Fight Details
Andrew Tate’s boxing debut with Misfits is set for December 20, 2023, in Dubai. The matchup against Chase DeMoor marks a significant step in his return to competitive sports.
As Misfits Boxing navigates this transition with Tate as the new CEO, fans and followers will closely watch the impact on the organization and KSI’s future involvement.
