    Andrew Tate to face Misfits heavyweight champ Chase DeMoor 

    Andrew Tate, known as "Cobra," will box for the first time. He's set to face Chase DeMoor - the current Misfits heavyweight champ from the show To Handle. This fight tops the bill at Misfits 23. News of this matchup followed speculation about Tate possibly fighting former UFC fighter Darren Till, who is now into influencer boxing.

    Reports from Mirror Boxing reveal that Andrew Tate gave the Till fight a no-go, opting instead to take on DeMoor for the heavyweight title. DeMoor, who's already fought five times this year and has stayed unbeaten for two years, will square off against Tate, a kickboxing world champion boasting a 76-9 record, in what looks set to become one of the year's most talked-about crossover clashes.
