Surely this is a massive publicity stunt/wine up?
They're not really going to dress up as gladiators and grapple with each other, are they?

Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

Italy could host Musk v Zuckerberg cage fight

The culture minister says he has spoken to the X boss about hosting the showdown as a charity event.

I reckon it'll be an online fighting game that they'll play.

AutumnCrow · 12/08/2023 12:28

I thought it was for charity? You know, an ironic 'Roman gladiator' nod and expected to raise tens of millions?

Yeah, Musk is deadly serious. He's even worked out his killer move... The walrus.

😂is he just going to gain 200 pounds and flop on him?!

Oh I didn't know they were into martial arts. It just sounded utterly bizarre.
Can you have a draw in cage fighting? Surely neither of them would want to risk losing?

From what i understand cage fighting has a points system so tapping out is giving the other guy the round ???

EM could do it for the laugh, I dont think he "trains"
MZ is all "UFC or ONE" thats big big money and only about the win so i cant see him turn up in a costume ( and chase EM around a ring)🤷

I think it would be for the best if we popped them in a cage and then 'lost' the key (and subsequently) the cage for a few years.

Pair of daft middle-aged men with nothing better to do 🙄

Andrew Tate offered to train Musk. He hates Zuckerberg.

A lot of billionaire willy-waving.

Hard pass.

Soapyspuds · 12/08/2023 15:52

What a pair of penises. You would honestly not see women doing this

Women do cage fighting too.

lljkk · 12/08/2023 16:10

I thought it was great opportunity to raise money for charity.

Phew, good luck for him Putin never took him up on his offer to fight it out. That would have been embarrassing for him.

SatelliteStomper · 12/08/2023 18:11

God, the patheticness of the billionaire male ego really knows no bounds. They really are so fucking tragic, the pair of them.

Yes of course. I meant you would not see Karen Lynch challenge Mary Barra on Twitter to a cage fight. You just wouldn’t.

Window82 · 13/08/2023 11:13

they’ll send in their body doubles

LlynTegid · 13/08/2023 11:41

It will be choreographed and about as real as WWE.

MNetcurtains · 13/08/2023 12:10

Yeah, apart from Musk being flabby and Zuck being fit and fight experienced, Musk's mum has already said Musk isn't allowed to😂 Wotta tool.,

SamphiretheTervosaurReturneth · 13/08/2023 12:13

I have hopes that it will go ahead and that at the referee's instruction to fight they come together in an Argentine tango or similar 😊

I can only see Pete from Friends, earnestly marking out his “zone of terror” in his neck brace.
