Mark Zuckerberg (L) and Elon Musk (R)
Two of the world tech industry’s top billionaires, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, apparently want to go beyond their business rivalry and settle scores in a “cage fight.”
Twitter owner and Tesla CEO Musk recently tweeted that he would be “up for a cage fight” with Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, the parent company of Facebook.
In an Instagram story on Wednesday, Zuckerberg accepted the challenge by posting a screenshot of Musk’s tweet with the caption: “Send Me Location.”
Musk then responded to a tweet about the fight by Alex Heath, editor of tech news website Verge, with “Vegas Octagon” which is a reference to the Las Vegas arena that hosts the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
“I have this great move that I call ‘The Walrus,’ where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing,” he added in a separate tweet.
He later tweeted short videos of walruses, which perhaps indicates that his challenge to Zuckerberg may not be serious.
CNN has contacted Meta for comment. A spokesperson for the company told Verge: “The [Instagram] story speaks for itself.”
It remains unclear whether Zuckerberg and Musk are serious or just joking around. However, Zuckerberg is a martial arts expert and has recently participated in a competition.
The two have clashed on social media before.
