Latest Mark Zuckerberg training photo should have Elon Musk shaking in his Tesla
By Amy Kaplan
The fans may not be taking a potential fight between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg seriously, but clearly, everyone else is.
On Tuesday UFC champion Israel Adesanya shared a collection of photos of himself and UFC champion Alexander Volkanovski training with Mark Zuckerberg. This comes as a direct response to Musk training with former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre and John Danaher.
"No fugazi with Mark. This is Serious Business‼️" Adesanya wrote on the post. And we may have been notified that Zuckerberg has a fight name now too, if you want to believe that's what the shark emoji means.
The pair have been teasing back and forth about a potential cage match for weeks, and UFC president Dana White has already said he's on board to make it happen.
Mark Zuckerberg vs. Elon Musk early prediction
So what if this fight really does happen? Who would win?
A lot of those questions will depend on the ruleset and the weight class. My gut says Zuckerberg can win this, seeing as he has some competition experience already. It's not much, but it's something when considering the opponent has none (that we are aware of).
But Zuckerberg's experience lies mostly in BJJ experience. If this is a traditional MMA rules fight, that could give Musk the edge as he seems to be larger stature and it may be difficult for Zuckerberg to get him to the ground. We also have to consider the weight class. Will Zuckerberg has to put on mass or will Musk have to cut down, those factors could play in to who performs better day-of.
I imagine if this does happen it will be amateur rules (shorter rounds, head and shin gear, etc) but that's just a guess.
