The planned cage fight between Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has been made public. Using the social networking site X, formerly known as Twitter, Musk disclosed that the fight is scheduled to take place in Italy.
Tesla CEO and business magnate Elon Musk has provided details regarding his impending cage fight with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Musk announced the duel's location as Italy on the social media network X, previously known as Twitter. The cagematch between the two tech giants is much awaited and causing a stir on the internet as well as in the tech sphere.
Musk tweeted, “The fight will be managed by my and Zuck’s foundations (not UFC). Livestream will be on this platform and Meta. Everything in the camera frame will be ancient Rome, so nothing modern at all.”
Earlier, Musk said that an epic location will be chosen for the much-awaited fight. Later, he revealed that he has spoken to the Italian Minister of Culture and has received a positive response from their side. “I spoke to the PM of Italy and the Minister of Culture. They have agreed on an epic location,” he confirmed. Musk has not yet revealed the exact location of the upcoming fight. But, with this fresh revelation Musk has ruled out the possibility of UFC being involved in planning the fight.
Notably, UFC President Dana White had earlier expressed interest in organizing the fight between the two IT titans. In a previous Twitter post, Musk had disclosed that the entire proceeds from the fight would be contributed to a charitable cause benefiting veterans. "Everything done will pay respect to the past and present of Italy. And all proceeds will go to veterans," the Tesla CEO said.
For the next match, Musk and Zuckerberg have both been practicing. Live streaming of the cage match between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg will be carried out by both Meta and X, formerly known as Twitter. "I spent 3 hours in an MRI machine on Monday. Bottom line is that my C5/C6 fusion is solid, so not an issue. However, there is a problem with my right shoulder blade rubbing against my ribs, which requires minor surgery. Recovery will only take a few months," Musk revealed in a tweet talking about his physical condition.
Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, is still ecstatic about competing against Musk on the other side of the ring. Although Musk has not yet confirmed it, he suggested August 26 as a probable date for the confrontation.
