$350 Million Worth Andrew Tate Claims to Bet ‘Millions’ on ‘Trans Women in Sports’ While Taking Shot at Transgender Community

Andrew Tate, the former professional kickboxer, is not new to controversies. The 36-year-old is banned from several social media platforms because of his provocative comments on women and transgender. However, the British-American personality remains the same. That being said, Tate aka ‘Cobra’ sparked outrage in a recent Twitter post by declaring his willingness to gamble millions on transgender individuals participating in women’s sports categories.

Although Tate’s comments are harsh and have elicited a range of emotions from fans, they have surely brought the delicate topic of transgender inclusion in sports to the forefront of public debate.

What did Andrew Tate say about transgender women in sports?

‘Cobra,’ who is now under house arrest at his Romanian mansion, is quite active on his official Twitter account. He has over 6 million Twitter followers. And he says things without thinking about the repercussions.

With a reported net worth of $350 million, Tate recently stated that he wants to wager money on transgender women participating in women’s sports divisions. He also asked for a website for the same. Tate wrote:

“I wanna bet millions on all the transgender women in the womens sports divisions. Anyone got a website?”

Anyone got a website?

Given Tate’s background, it’s not difficult to conclude that he was targeting the transgender population. According to various assessments, transgender women have an advantage in the women’s division. Tate made such assertions as a result.

The topic stems from the continuing discussion regarding transgender women’s involvement in women’s sports. The participation of transgender athletes has received widespread acceptance as a matter of equality and inclusivity. But worries about physical advantages have spurred debate over fair competition.

Critics believe that biological distinctions between cisgender and transgender women, such as muscle mass and bone density, might provide trans women with a competitive advantage in particular sports. They argue that, without suitable restrictions, both cisgender and transgender athletes are treated unfairly.

Why is Tate under house arrest?

Last December, Romanian officials arrested Andrew Tate and his younger brother Tristan on suspicion of money laundering and people trafficking. Following that, they requested their release and filed an appeal in court, adamantly claiming their innocence.

Tate and his brother were ultimately awarded their release in March 2023, after several rejections. It is crucial to note, however, that they are now under house arrest and are under the watchful eye of the authorities.

The inquiry is still ongoing, and important developments have occurred since then. The brothers have clearly not avoided the scrutiny of the legal system, and their status remains fragile.
