It is a season when all and sundry are eager to throw one’s hats in the ring. Andrew Tate believes a boxing bout against former world champion Mike Tyson would be a cakewalk, hence an imprudent exercise not worth pursuing. 

Seniors Clap Back

The trend of former champions coming back for fights against much younger opponents is catching on.

On October 29th, the world saw a young Jake Paul knocking down former UFC champion, forty-seven years old Anderson Silva at Glendale, Arizona.

Floyd, The Money Mayweather, still makes it a point to fight exhibition matches against much younger contenders despite officially retiring from the game in 2017. He will fight twenty-five-year-old British YouTuber Deji Olatunji on November 13th in Dubai.

Mayweather’s former adversary, Manny PacMan Pacquiao is also rumored to make a comeback. After registering a political defeat at the hands of Bongbong Marcos during the Philippines’ Presidential elections, the PacMan, now free, plans a comeback with an exhibition match against South Korean YouTuber DK Yoo on December 11th.

A second exhibition match will occur in Riyadh against Jaber Zayani, a onetime sparring partner of the Filipino.

Enter Andrew Tate

Andrew Tate is a former kickboxer who became a social media influencer in addition to overseeing several other businesses. He became International Sports Kickboxing Association (ISKA)’s Cruiserweight champion in 2009. His record stands at seventy-six wins against nine losses. 

Tate’s post-kickboxing life has primarily been under the public’s scanner, though.

When asked whether he is willing to fight Mike Tyson, Andrew Tate responded, “Again, No. because he is now old. It would be an absolutely tragic shame to knock out an old version of his prime self. That doesn’t feel fair. Prime Tyson would have ripped me apart in a boxing match. To beat him when he is past his prime, just feels dishonorable and I’d feel dirty for doing that. So no amount of money on the Planet that could convince me to fight Mike Tyson.”

The point Tate makes, on one hand, appears admirable for respecting what Iron Mike was during his heydays. But does it underscore an inverted thought that finds a fight against an old Tyson a walkover? On the contrary, an overwhelming opinion does believe that even an old Mike would still be too much for Tate inside the boxing ring.

Ruling out a boxing bout with the Baddest Man on the Planet, the Cobra Tate is fine to contest a match with The Notorious Conor McGregor.

Paying heed to Jake Paul’s challenge for a fight may also be an alternative, given the lousy blood the Paul brothers, especially Logan, has with Andrew Tate. Previous talks between Paul’s manager and Tate remained inconclusive.

Do you think Andrew Tate’s beliefs are illusory? If he longs for a fight, shouldn’t he look for someone who matches him equally? Let us know.
