KSI launched a fierce social media assault after Andrew Tate’s loss to Chase DeMoor in the Misfits Mania main event on Saturday night. The two had been engaging in heated exchanges since October when Tate took over as the chief executive of Misfits Boxing, replacing KSI.
The popular YouTuber was furious about the change, especially since he had co-founded the organization with manager Mams Taylor. Before the fight began, KSI couldn’t help but celebrate Anthony Joshua’s victory over Jake Paul on Twitter, where Joshua emerged victorious after six rounds.
KSI has a deep-rooted rivalry with Paul, dating back to their early boxing encounters involving their siblings. He then expressed his desire for an Arsenal win and for Andrew Tate to be defeated to make it a perfect weekend.
Arsenal did secure a 1-0 win over Everton, adding to KSI’s delight. He tweeted, “This is the best weekend I’ve had this year omg,” following Tate’s loss.
Further adding salt to the wound, KSI shared a photo of both Paul and Tate in vulnerable moments after their respective fights, captioning it with, “Christmas came early,” along with a crying emoji.
Despite Tate’s extensive background in combat sports such as MMA, kickboxing, K1, and Muay Thai, he had not competed professionally in five years and had never fought in a boxing match before.
While Tate started the fight strong, he appeared to struggle with his stamina as the match progressed. DeMoor took advantage of this, landing a decisive right hand that shifted the momentum of the fight.
Post-fight, Tate acknowledged DeMoor’s victory, stating, “I’m gonna have to go back, watch the fight, make a decision but Chase deserves his win. I’m really happy for him, genuinely. Better to try and lose than to not try at all.”
Following his defeat, Tate shared multiple posts on social media, including a message that read, “Most men have never felt the sting of defeat because most men have never even tried.”
