Luke Rockhold criticized Andrew Tate’s performance in a boxing match against Chase DeMoor, describing it as unimpressive despite Tate’s background as a four-time world champion.
Add Luke Rockhold to the ever-growing list of fighters and pundits who weren’t exactly thrilled with Andrew Tate’s performance this past weekend.
The social media influencer took on Chase DeMoor in the main event of Misfits Mania. Despite being a favorite in the combat sports world, Tate’s performance was puzzling. He lost to DeMoor via majority decision. Ouch.
Rockhold, who’s had his fair share of ups and downs—like that brutal knockout loss to Darren Till earlier this year—shared his thoughts on Tate’s forgettable outing.
“Yeah, I mean, for a four-time world champion, you should have been able to box, that’s all I’ve got to say,” Rockhold told Submission Radio. “If you’re a four-time world champion, because I’m a four-time world champion, but I might’ve lost, but I showed I can still box. In any department of fighting, I can still do what I do.”
“Andrew, he didn’t look good, didn’t look like he had fought before.”
Tate does have some MMA experience, with a 3-2 record as an amateur. He won his pro MMA debut in 2010 against Shane Kavanagh in the UK.
“Credit to Andrew Tate, stepping up and doing his thing. I love how he presents himself and challenges himself. But man, that fight was f*cking horrible. It was a really bad fight on both ends,” Rockhold added.
