Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has accepted Elon Musk’s challenge for a cage fight. In response to Musk’s tweet expressing his readiness for a cage fight, Zuckerberg took to Instagram and confidently stated, “send me location,” along with a screenshot of Musk’s tweet.
This Instagram post from Zuckerberg, verified as genuine and not a joke, has intensified the pressure on Musk to respond, as reported by The Verge. Meta spokesperson Iska Saric simply stated, “The story speaks for itself.” Musk, in a concise two-word response, replied with “Vegas Octagon.”
Elon Musk’s reply to the Meta CEO included the address of the location, confirming his commitment to the proposed cage fight. Musk has been engaging in provocative banter with Zuckerberg on Twitter, with remarks such as “Zuck my ?.” Inside Meta, Chief Product Officer Chris Cox expressed during an internal company meeting the belief that creators desire a well-managed version of Twitter, receiving enthusiastic responses from employees. In a recent podcast interview with Lex Fridman, Zuckerberg also expressed his longstanding belief that Twitter should have a user base of one billion people.
Meanwhile, Musk’s post’s comment section has been inundated with hilarious memes, and Twitter users have already chosen sides. One user even posted an image of Musk transformed into the Hulk. Another user with the handle “@kwmarkoff26656” warned Musk about Zuckerberg’s jujitsu skills, stating, “Better be careful @elonmusk. I heard he does jujitsu now ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?.”
Furthermore, a user shared a short video of Zuckerberg’s training regimen. With Zuckerberg’s combat skills and Musk’s imposing physique, it will undoubtedly be intriguing to witness the outcome of their fight.
It is worth noting that Elon Musk previously challenged Russian President Vladimir Putin amid the violent situation in Ukraine. Musk took to Twitter, expressing his willingness to engage in a one-on-one fight with Putin, claiming that the fate of Ukraine would be determined by the outcome. In a tweet written in Russian, the American billionaire also directly addressed the Kremlin’s official account, asking if Putin would “accept this challenge.”
