The battle of the tech-moguls is rumoured to happen. Whilst it might not be the athletic spectacle most expect, it sure is interesting to see what might be the outcome.
Videos went viral where the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg had competed in a Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu tournament and managed to get himself on the podiums as well. He even got the support UFC legends like Henry Cejudo and Jonny ‘Bones’ Jones.
UFC and MMA legend, George St Pierre (GSP) talked in an interview where he mentioned that he trained the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Twitter, Elon Musk.
In the interview St Pierre spoke about how he was impressed with Musk stating,”he is much stronger than the average man.”
The UFC legend also highlighted that Musk has had a judo background which will prove to be beneficial if he is to take the fight against Zuckerberg.
Musk was seen previously training with popular podcast host Lex Friedman.
I did an impromptu training session with @elonmusk for a few hours yesterday. I’m extremely impressed with his strength, power, and skill, on the feet and on the ground. It was epic. It’s really inspiring to see Elon and Mark doing martial arts, but I think the world is served… pic.twitter.com/cq00A9Xnmw— Lex Fridman (@lexfridman) June 27, 2023
St Pierre however stated his disapproval of the fight indicating that the resources used to make this fight could be put elsewhere. George said,”the time that he dedicates to his work are things that can change the fate of humanity and I think it is way more important than fighting. But it is up to them in the end.”
GSP highlighted that he would be there to help him prepare for the fight regardless of his personal thoughts on the situation.
Elon even tweeted that the fight could happen in the Colosseum in Rome
