Chase DeMoor Claps Back at Former UFC Champion for Disrespecting Andrew Tate’s Loss
Chase DeMoor has never been shy of confrontation, and this time his anger spilled onto social media following comments made about Andrew Tate’s latest boxing defeat. What started as criticism quickly turned personal, prompting DeMoor to fire back publicly and escalate an already heated online exchange.
The controversy began when former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland weighed in on Andrew Tate’s loss, dismissing Tate’s kickboxing credentials and suggesting that his past titles meant little once he stepped into a boxing ring. Strickland’s blunt tone and choice of words immediately drew attention, especially given Tate’s polarising profile and massive online following.
For DeMoor, the remarks crossed a line. Fresh off sharing the ring with Tate himself, the Misfits heavyweight champion took the criticism personally and responded with a sharp, emotionally charged message directed straight at Strickland.
DeMoor Fires Back as Emotions Spill Over
Reacting to Strickland’s comments, Chase DeMoor did not hold back. In a strongly worded post, he warned Strickland to “watch your mouth,” while accusing him of racism and making it clear he would be more than willing to settle matters physically if given the chance. The post quickly went viral, with fans from both boxing and MMA weighing in on the escalating war of words.
DeMoor’s response was rooted in more than just loyalty. Having just gone rounds with Andrew Tate, he had firsthand experience of Tate’s strengths and limitations. While Tate’s performance raised questions about how well his kickboxing style translates to boxing, DeMoor appeared frustrated by what he saw as outright disrespect rather than fair analysis.
Strickland, known throughout MMA for his unapologetic and often controversial opinions, did not soften his stance. He doubled down on the idea that kickboxing accolades do not automatically carry over into boxing, using Tate as an example of why crossover fighters often struggle when removed from their comfort zone.

The exchange highlights a broader debate that has followed Tate throughout his combat sports journey. Despite being a decorated kickboxer, his ventures into boxing have exposed stylistic gaps, particularly in footwork, head movement, and defensive awareness under boxing rules. Critics argue that these flaws were inevitable, while supporters insist Tate deserves credit for stepping into unfamiliar territory under intense scrutiny.
For DeMoor, however, the issue was less about technical breakdowns and more about respect. His reaction underscores how emotionally charged Tate’s fights have become, drawing commentary not just on performance but on reputation, credibility, and legacy across different combat sports.
As of now, the online feud shows no sign of cooling down. Whether it remains confined to social media or spills into a real-life matchup is another question entirely. What is clear is that Andrew Tate’s loss has once again ignited debate far beyond the ring, pulling fighters from different disciplines into the conversation and keeping Misfits Boxing firmly in the spotlight.
