Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg may or may not ever actually throw down inside a cage, but a proposed fight between the two caused quite a stir on social media over the past week.
After Musk said he would fight him, Zuckerberg pulled a Khabib Nurmagomedov with a simple “send me location” line on Instagram. As the hype grew, Musk specified he wants a “cage match” against Zuckerberg in Las Vegas.
Since the buzz surrounding a battle between the Meta and Twitter CEOs came to be, UFC president Dana White said in multiple interviews over the past week that he’s held conversations with both Musk and Zuckerberg about making the fight happen.
As the hype built, numerous MMA fighters and personalities chimed in on a “Musk vs. Zuck” battle. Some even took sides. Scroll below to see what the MMA community thinks of a potential social media tycoon fistfight.

Honestly a part of me is downright tickled at the thought of mainstream news outlets running with the Zuckerberg vs. Musk fight story and having to explain the significance of the phrase “send me location” to an audience of normies.

Dan Hellie
The hype for Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg would be amazing.
Initial reaction: Zuck would destroy him. Actively trains & by all accounts is pretty good.
Upon further review: there’s a massive size discrepancy. Elon is 5 inches taller & 50lbs heavier
Conclusion: Zuck -150

My head says zuck who has been training bjj for abt a year (i think) takes the dub, but @elonmusk is my guy and I’m rocking with him, not sure if I’m allowed to bet though 😅
Who y’all taking?

Only interested in E-Lawn vs. The Zuck Man if it's a fortune-for-fortune match. Winner gets Facebook/Twitter. Jake Paul special guest referee. Jake Dorsey suspended in a cage above the ring.

Cris Cyborg
Elon and Zuckerberg bout to promote the first MMA fight in the meta verse promoting their companies advancements in VR and AI.
But I’m all for the PPV if they accept #BTC 🤣

“When it comes down the ideal body type and general endurance and skill for cage fighting, Mark Zuckerberg would have the upper hand. With a high protein, health infused diet and demonstrative skills in mixed martial arts – he would most likely win 🤣🤣🤣

Elon Musk vs Mark Zuckerberg odds — what do you think they would be?
Zuckerberg should be favored despite being smaller, IMO. He’s in better shape, younger and most important actually trains MMA.

So this will be in an other promotion not attached in any possible way to the UFC…because Dana don't do gimmick fights, right….right 😏😏
