The main event at today’s Misfits 23 gathering in Dubai featured a heavyweight championship bout between Andrew Tate and Chase DeMoor.
Tate (with a kickboxing record of 76-9-1 and an MMA record of 1-0) was making his return to combat sports, having last competed in December 2020 at KO Masters 8, where he secured a TKO win against Cosmin Lingurar. Known as ‘Cobra’, he entered this contest on a three-fight winning streak, with all three victories achieved via knockout or technical knockout.
In contrast, Chase DeMoor (boasting a 4-1 boxing record) had most recently fought in Manchester last August, where he successfully defended the promotion’s heavyweight title by achieving a second-round TKO triumph over Natan Macron. The 29-year-old competitor arrived at today’s event with four consecutive victories, following an initial loss in his Misfits debut to Tempo Arts by split decision.
The ‘Tate vs. DeMoor’ heavyweight title fight on this occasion did not unfold as the glorious comeback ‘Top G’ had hoped for. After experiencing some initial success during the first two rounds, Andrew Tate quickly exhausted himself, which provided Chase DeMoor the opportunity to land more forceful punches. The organization’s heavyweight champion repeatedly struck Tate with impactful blows but could not achieve a late stoppage, despite Andrew appearing severely dazed. Following six rounds of competitive “engagement,” the contest proceeded to the judges, who awarded DeMoor a majority decision victory.
Official Misfits 23 Outcomes: Chase DeMoor triumphed over Andrew Tate via majority decision (57-57, 58-56, 58-56)

This fights going exactly like I knew. Chase is so bad, Tate is marginally better but in all his videos he only body spars. Both tired. Not a great fight
