Guess who’s coming to dinner.

On Dec. 20, internet influencer Andrew Tate will be making his professional boxing debut as the new head of the Misfits Boxing organization. The celebrity boxing league quietly announced on Thursday the departure of former Chief Executive Officer KSI, also known as Olajide Olatunji, from his status as the head of the company. In his stead will be the reviled public figure who is currently awaiting prosecution in multiple countries along with his brother for rape, bodily harm and human trafficking.

The former kickboxer, who claims to sport an unconfirmable record of 76-9-1 with 32 KOs—Sherdog Fight Finder could currently verify 24 victories (16 by stoppage) opposite eight defeats—will be setting foot in the ring for the first time since a trio of matches in Romania in 2020.
