Mark Zuckerberg has shown the world that he’s more than just a tech genius. The Facebook CEO made headlines when he accepted Elon Musk’s offer for a fight. Of course, the fight is yet to happen, and it’s possible it just may not happen at all. However, Zuckerberg’s constant uploads on the internet took everyone by storm very soon after.

He posed with MMA fighters like Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski. He would win Jiu-Jitsu tournaments and show everyone who was the boss. Now, Zuckerberg’s trainer and sparring partner has opened up about new details regarding the fight. This Essentially Sports exclusive interview revealed everything about the ordeal. Take a look.

“I think Mark is actually interested in moving on to actual (fights),” Wu said. “He’s such a competitive guy that he wants something legit… if he wants to fight an actual fighter in whatever league or whoever he wants, you know I’m there to back him up.” Wu told interviewer Noah Lack that it’s all up to Zuckerberg and what he decides. “If you go back and defer back to Mark’s last thread about that fight and conversation, he said he wanted to move on and if he says that, I believe it and I haven’t heard anything since.”

So, it looks like when Zuckerberg addressed the fight over Meta’s latest innovation, ‘Threads’, he meant it. Khai Wu is willing to back up the Meta CEO no matter what he decides. However, for now, it looks like Zuckerberg might opt for real fights instead of trying to get Musk inside a cage with him.

Is Mark Zuckerberg really fighting Musk?

So as of right now, it would seem that the two billionaires have hit the pause button on their fight. Zuckerberg accused Musk of not being “serious” about the fight. This was after Musk would not respond about a date or a final place. According to Wu, Zuckerberg just wants to “move on.”
