Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg might just be the biggest MMA fight ever (if it ever happens).

And even though the pairing of the two social media giants seems unlikely, Musk isn't taken any chances by being unprepared.

According to Lex Fridman, a computer scientist, podcaster, and AI researcher, Musk is actually quite impressive.

Fridman took to Twitter on Tuesday to share a few photos of himself training with the Twitter owner.

"I did an impromptu training session with [Elon Musk] for a few hours yesterday," he tweeted. "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 far better if they train martial arts but not fight in the cage. That said, as Elon says, the most entertaining outcome is the most likely... I'm there for them, no matter what."

You may not know Fridman offhand, but he's also rolled with none other than Zuckerberg and should know a thing or two about the men.

"Mark Zuckerberg and I trained some jiu-jitsu after our most recent podcast conversation. It's inspiring to see both Mark and Elon taking on the martial arts journey. I look forward to training with both of them in the months and years to come," wrote on YouTube on June 25.

Fridman is also a black belt in jiu-jitsu.
