Elon Musk Vs. Mark Zuckerberg Cage Fight Update: Tesla CEO Says Fight Will Be Livestreamed on X
It is looking like the Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg cage fight is pushing through, according to Musk himself. The Tesla CEO says that his fight with the Meta boss will be streamed live on X.
The man who turned Twitter into "X" tweeted that he was "lifting weights throughout the day, preparing for the fight" and added that "all proceeds will go to charity for veterans." However, he did not give any further details, according to CNN.
The fight was proposed in June, with both tech billionaires seemingly agreeing, though their respective companies have since continued feuding, with the company previously known as Twitter suing Meta over its Twitter-like social media platform, Threads.
Musk also challenged Zuckerberg to a "D*ck measuring contest" in response to Threads going live as direct competition to X. He accused Meta of taking former Twitter staff to make its new competitor.
Elon Musk made a very bold prediction about their showdown, stating, "If the fight is short, I probably win. If long, he may win on endurance."
He added, "I am much bigger and there is a reason MMA has weight divisions."

Mark Zuckerberg seems excited to throw down with Elon Musk, even saying he is ready to fight the "X" CEO today if he can. He also suggested that the fight should happen on August 26 but admitted that he is not holding his breath on that happening.
The Facebook founder also shot back at Musk's announcement that the fight would be live-streamed on X, saying they should "use a more reliable platform that can actually raise money for charity." This is an apparent shot at Musk's blunder-filled presidential run announcement for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, which was filled with glitches.
