The ongoing drama surrounding the cage fight between technology billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg continues to capture the attention of social media users. Musk’s first Twitter suggestion was enthusiastically embraced by Zuckerberg, which led to more speculations about the match.
The lighthearted conversation also took an unusual turn when Musk proposed using the UFC Octagon in Las Vegas as the fight’s location. He also jokingly detailed a bizarre maneuver he named “The Walrus.” Musk also posted amusing walrus videos, indicating that the challenge might not be taken too seriously. Although Zuckerberg is 12 years younger and shorter in physique, many agree that his experience in Brazilian jiu-jitsu may offer him a significant advantage.

He added that he wasn’t holding his breath for Elon Musk. He went on to say that he would reveal the specifics of the upcoming fight when he was prepared. He wrote,
“Not holding my breath for Elon, but I’ll share details on my next fight when I’m ready. When I compete, I want to do it in a way that puts a spotlight on the elite athletes at the top of the game. You do that by working with professional orgs like the UFC or ONE to pull this off well and create a great card.”
