Mark Zuckerberg Agrees To Fight Elon Musk in The Cage
Following Elon Musk’s recent tweet expressing his willingness to engage in a “cage fight” with Mark Zuckerberg, the Meta CEO was quick to respond by sharing a screenshot of Musk’s tweet saying “Send me location.”
The Verge confirmed that Zuckerberg’s Instagram post was not intended as a hoax, according to Meta spokesperson Iska Saric. The situation now awaits Musk’s response, and as Saric said, “The story speaks for itself.”
Musk even gave it an official location: Vegas Octagon.
I’ve confirmed that Mark Zuckerberg is serious about fighting @elonmusk and is now waiting on the details (if Musk decides to follow through)

Musk engaged in Twitter taunts aimed at Zuckerberg, including comments like “Zuck my 👅.”
At a recent Meta shareholders meeting, product manager Chris Cox encouraged employees by saying the company believes YouTubers want a “properly working” version of Twitter. Zuckerberg himself expressed his belief that Twitter should have a billion user base in a recent podcast interview with Lex Fridman.
When it comes to the what-if scenario where billionaire tech CEOs physically battle each other, a clash between Musk and Zuckerberg would certainly generate a lot of interest.
Musk, 51, has the physical advantage over Zuckerberg and has spoken of his experiences of “really tough street fighting” growing up in South Africa. Now, 39-year-old Zuckerberg is an aspiring MMA fighter who has found success in jiu-jitsu tournaments.
He also states that he recently completed the demanding “Murph Challenge” workout in just under 40 minutes.
