Elon Musk recently tweeted that he is "ready for a cage fight" with Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta responded by posting a screenshot of Musk's tweet with the caption "send me location".
I'm up for a cage match if he is lol

Musk responded with two words: Vegas Octagon.
I have this great move that I call “The Walrus”, where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing

But let's look at the background: Musk often mocks Zuckerberg on Twitter with tweets like “Zuck my 👅”.
During an internal meeting at Meta last week, Chief Product Officer Chris Cox told employees that the company believes creators want a "reasonably managed" version of Twitter, prompting cheers.
"I always thought Twitter should have a billion people using it," Zuckerberg said during a recent podcast interview with Lex Fridman.
When it comes to billionaire tech CEOs literally asking for a fight, in the Musk vs. Zuckerberg race we don't know the winner but we'll list some facts.
Musk is 51 years old and has a larger physical size compared to Zuckerberg. He has occasionally reported on "real tough street fights" when he was growing up in South Africa.
Meanwhile, Zuckerberg is 39, an aspiring MMA fighter who is already winning a Jiu-Jitsu tournament. He also claims that he recently completed the grueling “Murph Challenge” workout in less than 40 minutes.
Regardless of who would win, I think we can all agree that a Musk vs. Zuckerberg matchup would be one of the most entertaining matches of all time. Don't back down Musk.
