In a development that has the combat sports world buzzing, Andrew Tate, the controversial former kickboxing champion turned internet personality, is reportedly eyeing a return to the ring. According to a recent article by EssentiallySports, Tate has received a substantial $22 million fight offer to face Russian influencer and bodybuilder Asxab Tamaev under boxing rules. This potential bout, which could take place in Dubai or Moscow, is being promoted by Tate’s associate Tam Khan and is seen as a stepping stone toward a much-anticipated clash with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.
Tam Khan announced the offer via X (formerly Twitter), stating: “Been sent an offer of $22m +ppv cut to make this fight in either Dubai or Moscow. @Cobratate vs Tamaeev, a Russian influencer. Top G promotions alongside TK events in collaboration with the organiser. Boxing rules.” He further hinted on Instagram that this fight could be “the route before the mega Jake Paul fight,” suggesting that Tate’s bout with Tamaev might set the stage for a showdown with Paul.

Andrew Tate, known for his polarizing online presence and past as a four-time world kickboxing champion, has not competed professionally in years. His potential return to the ring against Tamaev, who is more recognized for his physique than boxing prowess, raises questions about Tate’s current capabilities and intentions. Is this a genuine comeback or a strategic move to generate hype for a future fight with Jake Paul?
Jake Paul, for his part, has built a reputation by taking on high-profile opponents and generating significant attention in the boxing world. A fight between Paul and Tate would not only be a clash of personalities but also a significant event in the realm of influencer boxing, blending entertainment with athletic competition.
As discussions continue and fans speculate, the potential matchups involving Andrew Tate, Asxab Tamaev, and Jake Paul promise to keep the combat sports community engaged. Whether these fights materialize remains to be seen, but the buzz surrounding them underscores the evolving landscape where social media influence and combat sports intersect.
