Former kickboxer Andrew Tate has become a magnet of controversy over the past few months over his radical views on women and how men should behave in society. Most of these takes are based on his own experiences where he faced struggle and hardship and claims that all men should force their will in the world.

Tate was an accomplished kickboxer and a former world champion holding the International Sport Karate Association (ISKA) Full Contact Cruiserweight championship in 2013. But he retired from the sport back in 2016, which has led fans to wonder how he would fare against the top fighters in the UFC.

Following this, one fan claimed that he should not compete in the UFC due to his lack of grappling skills and that he was already living the life he wanted. He wrote, “He wouldn’t want to do that, Tate would have to rework his style to combat grappling game. Also, he is retired and living the life right now.”

Moreover, another fan stated that there were almost 100 high school wrestlers who could beat Tate and pointed out that he had only competed in one pro MMA fight. He wrote, “This dude literally had one pro MMA fight and has zero wrestling. People need to get it through their head that there are at least a hundred high school wrestlers that would smash this guy in an MMA fight.”
