The ‘King Cobra’ announced the shocking news over on X and proclaimed himself the ‘Combat Executive Officer.’ He had the fans going wild and questioning what the future of Misfits is going to look like under Misfits. It seems he’s starting this new era off with a bang and firing off shots towards the former CEO, KSI.

Tate spoke in an interview with Fred Beck after the announcement of his becoming the new CEO. The business mogul finally revealed the real reason for taking over the banner from KSI. He stated that the Prime co-founder had tweeted something at him that annoyed him three years ago. So, in turn, he decided to take over his organization from the British YouTube star.

“Well, KSI tweeted something that annoyed me about three years ago. So, long story short, I took his company from him, and considering that I’m the largest name on the planet, if I’m going to fight in an organization, why not fight in an organization I own a percentage of? That makes a lot of business sense. I’ve never met the guy; I hope he is okay. He annoyed me on Twitter, so I had to get involved in his company; that’s just how it goes. That’s how professionals act… You piss off a banker, before you know it, he owns your street.”

Tate Has Some History With KSI

Andrew Tate doesn’t seem to forget anything his past foes had said against him. In this case, he remembered KSI talking about him negatively and decided to take his revenge in a takeover. However, there might be a bit more than meets the eye as well behind his takeover.

The promotion president, Mams Taylor, also slammed KSI for refusing to fight for the promotion. He accused him of almost taking down the popular boxing banner. He believes Misfits was sent down a downward spiral due to KSI’s hesitation to step back into the boxing ring. Taylor ultimately ousted him as the CEO and turned to Tate, whom he believes is going to fight for the brand.

It seems that all of this talk around KSI reached him as well, and he’s not happy at all about it. The British YouTube star is furious over Tate being appointed as the next CEO after he was ousted from the boxing promotion. KSI claimed people are trying to test him and called Tate replacing him as the CEO one of the dumbest things he’s ever seen in his life.

Tate’s Set To Fight The Reigning Misfits Boxing Champion

Andrew Tate is making big moves right out of the gate. After being announced as the CEO of Misfits Boxing, the controversial social media star revealed he’s going to be picking the gloves back up for a fight.

Tate is set to fight the reigning Misfits Boxing Heavyweight Champion, Chase De Moor. The fight is set to take place on December 20th in Dubai and is said to be the biggest show the company has ever put on. Tate has an impressive pro kickboxing record of 76-9-1.
