After his frustrated confrontation with Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg continues to be linked with mixed martial arts. The test was given a few hours ago by the president of the UFC, Dana White, who assured that the creator and owner of Facebook He is “absolutely interested” in testing himself in the Octagon.
During the ‘TMZ Live’ program this Thursday, White maintained that Zuckerberg and the owner of X “they were serious about fighting,” but when the latter wanted to take a more casual route with the matchup, Zuck decided to walk away.
As is known, Musk recently declared that the fight would take place “in an epic location in Italy”, and Zuckerberg considered that the South African tycoon was being “not serious” and chose to desist from consummating the duel.
“Mark and I talk several times a week,” White said. “And we had dinner last Monday. He is very serious about competing. What he was saying in response to Elon was that there are tons of professional organizations and this is the way this should be done, not in a backyard or whatever Elon was saying.”
The famous character from the world of mixed martial arts also referred to the fact that ‘Zuck’ wanted the fight to be carried out by an athletic commission and that land he was concerned that there were adequate medical tests and drug tests.
So by all accounts the two billionaires facing each other for leadership in the digital world will no longer collide in a physical battle arena, but one of them is still interested in living that experience. As White clarified on the show, “I would say (Zuckerberg) is absolutely interested” in fighting a UFC fighter from his organization, a whim he doesn’t plan to oppose.
