The Fame Fighting star was left waiting alongside reporters from SunSport and BILD before questioning whether his rival had bottled the meeting.
In a video filmed after waiting around 40 minutes, Petrovic said: “So Chase, where are you? I’m waiting for you.
“Everything’s prepared. Forty minutes ago. Are you scared? Or what’s happening?
“You’re not only disrespectful to me, also to the people from Bild and The Sun. We are all waiting for you.
“You can only record reels, nothing else, fake.”

Aleks Petrovic wasn’t impressed by DeMoor’s no show at his face-to-face interview
DeMoor recently contacted Petrovic’s former fiancée, Vanessa Nwattu, through Instagram and told her he would be her ex-partner’s “punishment” when they finally meet in the ring.
He also shared an AI-generated image appearing to mock Petrovic by depicting him kissing one of his coaches.
Petrovic admitted he expected mind games from DeMoor once the fight was announced.
But the 35-year-old has been left frustrated by how personal the rivalry has become in recent weeks.
And after DeMoor’s latest no-show, the bad blood between the pair appears deeper than ever heading into one of the most anticipated fights on the Fame Fighting vs Misfits card.
