LAS VEGAS — Former kickboxer and was cageside for UFC 313 inside T-Mobile Arena on Saturday night, one night after attending Dana White’s Power Slap 12 at Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
Tate and his brother, Tristan, left Romania late last month after a travel ban on them was lifted while they , all part of an alleged organized crime ring. Andrew Tate was also charged with rape.
The Tates, who are dual U.S.-British citizens, were arrested in late 2022 and formally indicted last year.
The Tate brothers, who have denied all wrongdoing in the case, arrived in Florida on Feb. 27. Florida’s attorney general announced Tuesday that his office has opened a criminal investigation into the brothers.
“We live in a democratic society where it’s innocent until proven guilty. And I think my brother and I are largely misunderstood,” Andrew Tate said Thursday in Florida.
White was seen shaking hands and hugging Tate and his brother, Tristan, on Friday, when the UFC president and CEO could be heard on a viral video saying: “Welcome to the States, boys.”
