“Andrew Tate, the controversial kickboxer turned influencer, is in advanced talks with Misfits to compete in a heavyweight boxing match by the end of the year. Official announcement could come as soon as this weekend’s event.”

Andrew Tate: Mounting legal issues

Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate are currently facing a smattering of criminal and civil charges alleging physical and sexual abuse of women. What is more alarming is that they have been accused of similar infractions across multiple countries.

At the height of his rise on social media in 2022, Tate and his brother were arrested in Romania. As per NBC News, the charges levied against them included human trafficking, money laundering, and sexual intercourse with a minor. In 2024, the pair were indicted in relation to accusations of establishing a syndicate to inappropriately exploit women for sexual gain.

In May 2025, Andrew Tate and his brother were charged in the UK. According to multiple outlets, The Crown Prosecution Service charged the duo with rape and human trafficking on behalf of several plaintiffs. The trial for the UK-based charges against the Tates is scheduled for June 2026.

Apart from the existing charges against them, Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan are also under U.S. criminal investigation in Florida. Governor Ron DeSantis even addressed the possibility of the two seeking asylum within his state at a press conference:

“I do know our Attorney General is looking at what state hooks and jurisdiction we may have to be able to deal with this, but the reality is that no, Florida is not a place where you’re welcome with that type of conduct in the air.”

Tate and his brother have a long legal battle ahead, and that should remain their focus at present.
