Andrew Tate makes a bold claim
In the podcast, Full Screen Tate was asked by one of the hosts whether he would fight in a boxing match or MMA fight in the future. Tate responded by stating that he was open to the proposal if the right opportunity presented itself.
“I fought a year ago in MMA, I sparked him I’m open to all things. No one really cares, I’ll fight MMA or boxing doesn’t matter to me, I’m open to it but it’s a lifestyle. I lived for a very long time, understand that from the age of 17 to the age of 27 for 10 years of my life all I did was train, that’s why now I can still Jump on the pads and smash out 12 rounds easy.” He told the host.
However, he added that fighting required a certain lifestyle of discipline and that he would only compete if the pay is right, “I still nearly train every day but to live that lifestyle is a big sacrifice. You’ve gotta dial in, so for me to do it, I’m not saying I wouldn’t do it but it would have to be very worth it. The problem is for it to be worth it people will say how much money and I would have more money than anyone could possibly believe.” He said.
Lastly, he claimed that even $10 million dollars wouldn’t suffice for him to compete and stated that it was a “week’s wage,” for him. “So anyway, there are possibilities for things into mix perhaps If I can find it to be worth it but it’s just I’m at a stage now, well it’s worth it, you get $10 million. 10 million what, a week’s wage, bulls**t, 6 months training for that. I don’t need a week’s wage for 6 months of training.” He added.

$10 million might seem like an enormous sum to an average guy. However, according to Tate, it is just a weekly wage for him. Tate is currently worth $100 million, although he doesn’t disclose his finances. This is still a bold claim from Top G, even if he is a multi-millionaire.
Top G certainly has a price to step into the ring, but it obviously has to be an extravagant amount of money to get in the ring or octagon again. Surprisingly, it looks like he’d certainly entertain the thought of fighting again, considering how comfortably he lives. Although the same could be said about other successfully retired fighters such as Mayweather and Mike Tyson, who have come back into the ring to make a colossal amount of money. Tate might follow in their footsteps.
