On Saturday night Misfits Boxing will close out 2025 with a stacked card from the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium, headlined by a heavyweight title clash between Andrew Tate and Chase DeMoor.
With the crossover boxing promotion promising the heralding of a new era on Saturday night, we've taken an in-depth look on everything fight week is set to have in store.
Wednesday 17th of December - Open Workouts (13:00 GMT)
Thursday 18th of December - Press Conference (16:00 GMT)
Friday 19th of December - Weigh-In & Award Ceremony (16:00 GMT)
Saturday 20th of December - Fight Night (18:00 GMT)
The fight week schedule for Misfits Mania: Tate vs DeMoor get underway with the open workouts on Wednesday afternoon.
An long-honoured tradition of fight week, public workouts allow fighters to showcase their skills in front of a baying audience of spectators and media.
Misfits has always subverted the established norms of boxing to suit its younger audience, with excitement around every corner and their open workouts have historically been no different.
Ahead of the Ring of Thrones card in August, Tony Ferguson incorporated some pro wrestling inspired moves as part of his routine as he performed in The Rock's iconic People's Elbow.
With the former UFC interim champion set to feature on Saturday's card, expect more excitement when this week's workouts commence at 13:00 GMT on Wednesday.
Fans can tune in to watch the workouts live on the Misfits Boxing YouTube channel.
The fighters will sit down for the final press conference ahead of fight night as they face questions from the media.
Misfits Boxing have a long history of dramatic moments emanating from press conferences so don't be surprised if a spark ignites between any of the combatants.
Tate and DeMoor traded barbs during an event earlier this month and the pair will no doubt look to do the same as they meet on the stage on Thursday at 16:00 GMT.
Like the open workouts, the full press conference will be broadcast on the Misfits Boxing YouTube channel.
On Friday the fighters will complete their fight week preparations by stepping on the scales at the official weigh in.
With the main event between Tate and DeMoor being contested at heavyweight, there is no upper limit to what each man may tip the scales at.
However, based on their previous outings, expect DeMoor to come in around 230lbs, while Tate typically fought between 190lbs-200lbs during his kickboxing career,
The weigh-ins get underway from 16:00 GMT and will also be broadcast live on YouTube.
All the fight week festivities will come down to Saturday night when Misfits Mania will be live from the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium in the United Arab Emirates.
The entire event will be streamed live exclusively on Rumble or on the Rumble app.
UK viewers will be able to watch the event by purchasing a one-year subscription to Rumble Premium, priced at $99 (£74).
The first fights are set to get underway at 18:00 GMT, with the main event expected to commence around 22:00 GMT.
