Douchebag claims he didn't know who shitbags he hugged were!

Guy Fieri is addressing angry fans after he was seen having a seemingly friendly interaction with Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan Tate.

In video shared on social media, Fieri can be seen “dapping up” Tate, shaking his hand and doing a polite hug at "UFC 327: Procházka vs. Ulberg” in Miami on Saturday.

Fans took to Fieri’s comments to express their disapproval of his interaction with the Tate brothers. The Tates faced 21 criminal charges in the U.K. in 2025, including rape, assault and human trafficking. They have repeatedly denied all charges.

The Tates are also controversial for their masculinity-focused online content that often veers into misogyny.

He's friends with Dana White who he likely went to the event with. I recall Guy chumming around with Stallone and Gibson Floyd R. Turbo Thursday #3

He used to be a respected Food Network host -- now he's just "that guy"... Blue Owl Thursday #2

He has too broad an audience to risk alienating a decent part of it.
He should know everyone he would be best to avoid.
And, given the kind of audience UFC tends to attract, he should be smart enough to just watch it on TV. Nobody makes him go to those events.
He needs to respond to that slimeball lawyer in the strongest possible way.
I'm very annoyed, as a fan, with which he foolishly continues to keep company.
