Andrew Tate has claimed that he’s fighting the ‘biggest’ title Misfits Boxing has to supply in chasing the heavyweight title – but there’s one caveat.
It was announced last week that the controversial former kickboxing champion can be returning to the fight game to be able to face Misfits Boxing heavyweight champion Chase DeMoor in Dubai on December 20.
Tate is probably the most noteworthy men on the planet, rightly or wrongly, and his involvement within the event has drawn hundreds of thousands of eyeballs already. Nevertheless, he has placed one stipulation on DeMoor that could be a large game changer after they fight.

Chase DeMoor slapped with career-low weight limit for Andrew Tate ‘heavyweight’ clash
With a purpose to get a career-defining fight just like the one with Andrew Tate, Chase DeMoor has needed to undergo being a large B-Side within the event. He’s second on the poster despite being champion and had next to no say in contract negotiations.
One key factor that emerged within the American’s first training camp vlog on X this evening was that he must weigh in at 200lb, normally the cruiserweight limit, to be able to face Tate for his heavyweight belt.
DeMoor has never weighed any lower than 219lb in his three years of boxing, indicating that even on the towering height of 6’5″, he isn’t a very big heavyweight. Nevertheless, he told fans that he would wish to ‘shred up a bit’ in a brand new video.
He took to the scales in tracksuit pants with socks and sliders on, and claimed to weigh 225lb with over a month-and-a-half to fight night. He then revealed that fight weight can be 200lb and that he would should weight-reduction plan intensively to make weight.
Tate’s kickboxing peak saw him compete at cruiserweight, although he won ISKA world titles at each cruiser and light-heavyweight. He’s now years past that prime and appears to be well in-built recent footage, together with his current weight likely a bit over 200lb in his own right.
