Mark Zuckerberg winning a Jiu Jitsu tournament is the best reference we’ve seen of Pete Becker (played by Jon Favreau) from Friends, in real life. A tech billionaire He entered the world of martial arts and, as in his economic activity, he achieved success.
The difference is that the CEO of Meta, and creator of Facebook, won a couple of medals in his first Jiu Jitsu tournament. According to what you review TechWorldZuckerberg won a gold and a silver medal.
The information was released by Mark himself on his social networks, in which he posted: “I competed in my first Jiu Jitsu tournament and won some medals for the Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu team. Thanks to Dave Camarillo, Khai Wu and James Terry for coaching me.”
This new episode in the life of Mark Zuckerberg made us wonder: What other greats in the world of technology have practiced any of the martial arts disciplines? Does Elon Musk know how to kick? Is Bill Gates capable of making a Sow? Have we seen Jeff Bezos perform a Kum?
Apparently there is only one of these mentioned who tried, and liked, a contact sports discipline. This is Elon Musk, of whom there is no record of him knowing a martial art.
However, when the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out, the now owner and CEO of Twitter challenged President Vladimir Putin to a Judo match to resolve the war this way, in hand-to-hand combat.
