Andrew Tate and Chase DeMoor could be heading for a second clash before the end of the year, with a rematch now firmly in play after their closely fought bout in Dubai.
A Contract Clause Sets Up Round Two
DeMoor, the reigning Misfits heavyweight champion, has revealed that Tate included a rematch clause in their original agreement and is already pushing to run it back. Speaking to streamer JasonTheWeen, DeMoor said Tate handled defeat with class and respect, acknowledging the physical advantages that helped DeMoor edge the contest.
“He was very upper class about it,” DeMoor said. “He said I was the better guy that night, that I’m bigger and younger. But he also put a rematch clause in there. He wants to fight again, and we’re going to do it this year.”
Their first meeting marked Tate’s professional Misfits Boxing debut and came just after he was unveiled as the promotion’s new CEO. While the fight itself lacked fireworks, it was highly competitive, with Tate starting strong before visibly fading as the rounds wore on. DeMoor ultimately retained his title via a narrow points decision.
Tate Reflects on Defeat and Faith
After the fight, Tate offered an unusual and philosophical take on the loss, suggesting there may have been forces beyond the ring at play. He questioned why his stamina deserted him and framed the outcome as part of a bigger plan, saying the result may have meant more to DeMoor than it would have to him.
Tate added that he had no intention of diminishing his opponent’s achievement, stressing that DeMoor earned the win and deserved the recognition, money and momentum that came with it. “Never take away your opponent’s victory,” Tate said, praising DeMoor for stepping up on the night.
Other Big Fights on DeMoor’s Radar
While a Tate rematch appears likely, DeMoor has no shortage of options. The American, who fought an astonishing seven times in 2025, has also expressed interest in facing Misfits Boxing standout Darren Till.
Till, a former UFC welterweight title challenger, quickly welcomed the idea on social media, calling for the fight to be made. The 33-year-old has built serious momentum in Misfits, earning wins over Anthony Taylor and Darren Stewart before capturing the promotion’s bridgerweight title against Luke Rockhold in August.
Whether DeMoor runs it back with Tate or shifts focus to Till, the heavyweight champion looks set for another high-profile showdown as Misfits Boxing continues to build its star power.
