Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Meta, has declared that the proposed cage fight between himself and fellow billionaire Elon Musk is over. In a post on Threads, Meta’s alternative to Twitter, Zuckerberg said that Musk had failed to show any real desire to enter the arena.
The two tech titans had been teasing the possibility of a mixed martial arts fight since June, calling it a “cage match,” an informal term referring to wrestling in a closed-in space that combatants aim to escape from. Zuckerberg said he had offered a real date, but that Musk had failed to confirm it, and then asked to do a practice round in Zuckerberg’s backyard instead.
“I think we can all agree Elon isn’t serious and it’s time to move on,” Zuckerberg wrote. “Otherwise, time to move on. If he ever gets serious … he knows how to reach me.”
The cage match between the two billionaires had been highly anticipated by the public, with many speculating on the outcome of the fight. However, it appears that the fight will not be taking place, as Zuckerberg has declared that it is time to move on. It remains to be seen if Musk will respond to Zuckerberg’s post, or if the proposed fight is truly over.
