Time to Read: 2 minute
The renowned businessman assured that both tycoons are willing to fight and this would be an unsanctioned fight and only for exhibition. He also acknowledged some issues like the size difference between Musk and Zuckerberg.
What started as a joke on social networks between two great technology moguls is already on its way to being one of the most anticipated fights and the president of the UFC, Dana White, stands as the person who could shape a meeting inside the octagon between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.
In a conversation on The Pat McAfee Show, Dana discussed the fight and revealed that she was about to hold a virtual meeting with the owner of Twitter to finalize details. “I've been talking to both of them back and forth, (Elon and I) have a call in about five minutes here,” he said.
Even, White has already delved into certain criteria of fight as the difference in size between the two. The owner of UFC stated that mechanisms will be sought to shorten that gap and pointed out that it will be a non-sanctioned fight and only for exhibition.
“Elon Musk is six foot two, two hundred and twenty pounds. Mark Zuckerberg it's not, okay. There's a big difference, this would be like UFC 1 for God's sake (…) we'd have to figure out the weight issue, I don't know how people will see it commissions this. Well, it would be an exhibition, it would not be sanctioned by a commission”, he indicated.
“There are still a lot of things you would have to work on to make this fight happen. But, what I love and respect is that these two guys want to do it. They both want to fight, for people who aren't even fans of fights this is fun. It's fun to talk about, it's fun to think about, you know me, I'm in the middle of trying to put the pieces together and see what we can do”, it culminated.
Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg
The two tech moguls have never gotten along quite well and have criticized each other on several occasions; However, this situation took shape when Elon, used to making jokes on Twitter, made a tongue-in-cheek comment about the Facebook duel in a netizen's post.
“I'm sure Earth can't wait to be under Zuck's thumb with no other options. At least it will be 'sensible'. I was worried for a moment”, she commented. The user jokingly reminded him that he should be careful of a person who practices jiu-jitsu, a discipline he adopted during the covid-19 pandemic and with which he won a couple of medals a while ago in California.
“I'm available for a cage fight if he wants,” the Tesla owner also finished. Without any planning, a Twitter user had given rise to a fight between two famous billionaires, because hours later Zuckerberg published on his Instagram profile a screenshot of that conversation and the notice to “put the place”.
