ark Zuckerberg has stated he's transferring on from a rumoured cage combat with Elon Musk, claiming the Tesla boss “isn’t serious”.
The rival billionaire tech bosses seemingly agreed to a brawl in June when Mr Musk tweeted that he was “up for a cage fight”.
Mr Zuckerberg, who manages Facebook and Instagram, took a screenshot of Mr Musk’s tweet, replying “send me location”.
However, on Sunday he stated on social media platform Threads:”I feel we will all agree Elon isn’t severe and it’s time to maneuver on.
“I offered a real date. Dana White (UFC boss) offered to make this a legit competition for charity.
“Elon won’t confirm a date, then says he needs surgery, and now asks to do a practice round in my backyard instead.
“If Elon ever gets serious about a real date and official event, he knows how to reach me. Otherwise, time to move on. I’m going to focus on competing with people who take the sport seriously.”
Mr Musk, proprietor of social media platform X, previously named Twitter, appeared to counsel the combat could be held in an “epic location” in Italy.
He outlined streaming choices and an historical setting for the proposed occasion, claiming he had spoken to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
Tensions have been excessive between the 2 tech billionaires’ corporations after the launch of Threads, a text-based dialog app, by Mr Zuckerberg’s Meta in July.
Twitter despatched a cease-and-desist letter to Mr Zuckerberg after the launch, claiming Meta had made “unlawful misappropriation of Twitter’s trade secrets and other intellectual property”.
Mr Zuckerberg is skilled in blended martial arts, posting about finishing his first jiu jitsu event earlier this 12 months.
Mr Musk stated final week he was coaching for the combat by lifting weights.
He wrote on X: “Don’t have time to work out, so I just bring them to work.”
