Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, prominent tech billionaires, found themselves in a playful rivalry when the Twitter CEO challenged the Meta CEO to a combat match. The spark that ignited this exchange was Meta’s announcement of their plans to launch a Twitter competitor called ‘Threads’. In response, Musk humorously declared his readiness to engage in an MMA-like “cage match” with the 39-year-old Zuckerberg. Much to everyone’s surprise, Zuckerberg swiftly accepted the challenge on Instagram, adding fuel to the already fiery banter. As the news spread like wildfire, it caught the attention of none other than Dana White. And now, the UFC president has just dropped an exciting update on this trending topic that has got fans on the edge of their seats.

Dana White confirms Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg’s seriousness for the battle

During a recent interview with TMZ, Dana White, the President of the UFC, weighed in on the legitimacy of the potential fight between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, shedding light on their seriousness about the matter. White revealed, “I was talking to both Elon and Mark last night. Both guys are absolutely dead serious about this. They both said, ‘Yeah, we’ll do it!’,”

He further added, “Mark Zuckerberg hit me up first and said, ‘Is he serious?’ I said, ‘I don’t know, let me ask him[Elon Musk].’ I asked him and he said, “Yeah, I’m dead serious.”

White emphasized the immense financial impact, envisioning the fight generating hundreds of millions of dollars for charity. He remarked, “This would be the biggest fight ever in the history of the world. Bigger than anything that’s ever been done. It would break all pay-per-view records. These guys would raise, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars for charity, and you don’t have to be a fight fan to be interested in this fight.”

Highlighting the colossal scale of the matchup, White said, “The biggest fight of all time was Floyd and Conor, I just think it triples that – it triples what that did, there’s no limit on what that thing can make.”
