Mark Zuckerberg Works Out with UFC Champions – Could a Cage Match with Elon Musk be Next?
The two prominent figures in the tech industry, who have been making headlines lately, appear to be preparing for a physical confrontation. Both individuals are also using their online presence to support their training efforts. The ongoing verbal battle between Elon Musk, the executive chair of Twitter, and Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has been the subject of much discussion since Musk challenged Zuckerberg to a cage fight, to which Zuckerberg responded by asking for the location. Ever since Meta started developing its Twitter-like platform Threads, the two have been taking jabs at each other. On Monday, Threads reached a significant milestone of 100 million users, making it the fastest consumer app to achieve this feat. In response, Musk boasted about the possibility of setting a new record for cumulative user-seconds per day this week. Adding fuel to the speculation of a cage fight, Zuckerberg was recently spotted training with UFC champions and appears to be in great physical shape.
A few hours ago, UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya posted a photo on Instagram with Zuckerberg and UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski, saying, “No fugazi with Mark. This is serious business,” hinting that the three have been training together. TMZ also reported , that the three have been training together for the past few days after the two fighters flew to the Facebook founder’s Northern California residence following Saturday’s UFC 290 show in Vegas.
The message has caused netizens to wonder if Zuckerberg is training for the much-speculated cage fight against Musk. One user commented, “He’s getting ready to fight Elon,” while another joked, “I’d play hard if I was Elon.”
The war of words continues between Musk and Zuckerberg
Recently, Musk took a dig at Meta’s CEO and said that “zuck is a cuck” responded to the message. He also challenged Zuckerberg to a literal penis measuring contest.
A post earlier today said that Threads was not among the top 30 trends on Twitter in the US yesterday, which was probably a sign that the platform was censoring Threads. Responding to it, Zuckerberg posted a laughing crying emoji and said “about”.
Last week, a report suggested that Zuckerberg and Musk could also be embroiled in a legal dispute over claims that Threads took code and coders from Twitter after Twitter’s lawyer raised concerns that Meta stole Twitter’s trademark and intellectual property to build. on its own platform.
So, is the fight really going on or are Mark and Elon just posting? The jury is still out on the matter as there is nothing official about it so far.
