BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, the polarizing influencer, does not enjoy widespread support from celebrities or athletes due to his controversial viewpoints.

Nevertheless, a surprising event occurred when UFC 293 fighter John Makdessi approached him for assistance. Makdessi claimed that the Australian government had significantly reduced his fight earnings.

Andrew Tate has been a vocal critic of the system or the government, consistently voicing his grievances and accusing it of exploiting and manipulating its citizens. Consequently, Makdessi's acknowledgment of Tate was well-received by Tate's fans.

They welcomed the UFC fighter's decision to seek Tate's assistance and amplify his message, recognizing the potential impact of Tate's extensive reach and large following.

John Makdessi sought assistance from Andrew Tate as he called out Australian government

Makdessi participated in the UFC 293 preliminary card, held in Sydney, Australia, on September 9. Following three intense rounds of action, Makdessi experienced a somewhat controversial unanimous decision loss to Jamie Mullarkey.

However, the disappointment didn't end there for Makdessi during his latest Octagon appearance. He shared his official payout, which amounted to $58,000 before taxes and expenses but changed to $28,461.65 after these deductions.

In a now-deleted 'X' (formerly known as Twitter) post, Makdessi vented his frustration.

He expressed how he had dedicated his entire life to this sport and had put everything on the line, lamenting the Australian government's and the judges' impact on his earnings.

In a symbolic move, Makdessi tagged Tate in his post, as he also mentioned the hashtag 'Matrix' to assert that it is a work of Matrix aka the system and Tate would help him by stepping up against the Matrix.

Over the past few years, Tate has been a prominent advocate of the belief that governments and higher authorities are corrupt, creating a situation reminiscent of the matrix.

As of now, Tate has not responded to Makdessi's tweet.

Makdessi wrote, "I sacrificed my whole life for this sport and put everything on the line. Damn Australian government and the judges robbed me pretty badly. #MATRIX @Cobratate."
