Get ready for the Zak vs Musk cage fight

I haven’t seen a fight since Manny Pacquiao fought Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2015, but if Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg do it in front of cameras, I’m totally into it. And I’m not the only one who would do so based on the attention the idea of ​​a fight between two tech billionaires is getting on social media.

It all started when Musk reacted to a report about Meta’s Twitter rival. Apparently, Chris Cox, Meta’s chief product officer, said that the company is “hearing from creators and public figures who are interested in building a platform that is run intelligently.” Somebody told him to be careful, because Zuckerberg does jiu jitsu now. Musk said, “If that’s it, I’m open to a cage match.” react, As ledge Zuckerberg reportedly posted a screenshot of the exchange as a story on his Instagram account with the caption: “Send me the location.”

Zuckerberg has been training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu for about a year, and his efforts are well documented — he even participated in a tournament in May and won gold and silver medals. For Musk, he said he has a great move called “”.walrusWhere he just lies on top of the opponent and does nothing. His proposed venue for the fight? UFC Octagon in Las Vegas.

Since Musk Vs. Zuckerberg will be the main event, Engadget editors have some suggestions for undercard matches. Satya Nadella Vs. It will be almost as interesting to see Sundar Pichai, especially now that Bing is finally part of the conversation, thanks to its AI chatbot. And then there’s Snap CEO Evan Spiegel and Instagram head Adam Mosseri, who could be taking their mobile-first services rivalry to the octagon. Since both Musk and Zuckerberg are looking for ways to monetize their platforms, the best thing to do is to broadcast the event as a pay-to-view live stream on Twitter Blue and Meta Verified. Of course, these are hypothetical fights that likely won’t happen, but if they do happen we’re looking forward to a juicy investigation as thanks for our thoughts.
