Musk Says Cage Fight With Zuckerberg To Be Streamed On X

293

Elon Musk said a potential fight with Mark Zuckerberg will be streamed on the rebranded social network known as X.

“Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on X,” Musk wrote Sunday in a post on his platform, formerly known as Twitter. He added that proceeds from the proposed “cage match” with Meta Platforms Inc. chief executive would go to a charity for veterans.

Musk, 52, the world’s richest person, challenged Zuckerberg, 39, to a fight in late June. Zuckerberg responded by asking for a location to meet.

Zuckerberg posted Sunday on Threads that he suggested Aug. 26 for the match and he’s still awaiting confirmation. “I’m ready today,” he said. “Not holding my breath.”

Zuckerberg, a martial arts enthusiast, competed in a jujitsu tournament this year. Musk said earlier in the day that he was “lifting weights throughout the day, preparing for the fight.”

Competition between the two CEOs has intensified in recent weeks after Facebook-parent Meta released a rival social network, Threads, that directly competes with Musk’s X.
