Andrew Tate and Jake Paul are finally done just talking about it. Thursday, Jake Paul teased a fight between him and former kickboxing champ Andrew Tate.

The two well-known fighters and social media influencers squared off outside a boxing ring in Dubai. According to TMZ, the meet-up occurred at the Kamani club in Dubai, owned by the founder of PrettyLittleThings. Paul tweeted the word negotiations. Twitter is flooded with reactions from fans who have followed the moments leading up to this announcement.

Tate first offered to fight Jake Paul in 2021 for $3 million. At the time, Jake was focused on other fights. Maybe it was Jake who fueled the fire to get this fight going. Recently on his brother Logan’s podcast “Impaulsive,” Jake stated Tate did not want to fight him or his brother. Jake claims Tate would lose the fight, and losing is too big of a risk for his brand as the “alpha male.” 

Still determining who is going to take the victory in this match-up, but it will not be an easy defeat for either opponent. Jake Paul is coming off a recent win over former MMA star Anderson Silva. Former kickboxing champion Andrew Tate’s last fight was in 2020. His record is 76-9, and his MMA record is 2-1. Jake Paul’s boxing record is 6-0. 

Tate gained a significant following for his controversial posts before being banned from most social media platforms. Paul has recently spoken out against Tate’s ban on social media, calling it “censorship.” Tate has also been supportive of Paul’s boxing career. Critics have accused Paul of not being a real fighter claiming he is instead a social media influencer making a mockery of the sport.  

For now, there is no official date for the fight, but it is expected to be lucrative.
