Tesla CEO Elon Musk says Meta owner Mark Zuckerberg can win the cage fight due to this one quality

The much-awaited fight between billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg is all people can think about.

During the weekend, the Tesla founder and CEO took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to reveal that the highly-anticipated fight will be streamed on the social media platform and all proceeds will go to charity.

The Meta Founder and CEO quickly interjected, "Shouldn't we use a more reliable platform that can raise money for charity?" He hinted at using his newly-launched app Threads - which is a Twitter lookalike - to live stream the match.


The uncertainty surrounding the fight's schedule has left fans eagerly awaiting confirmation.

Showing his eagerness, Zuckerberg said that he was ready to take on the tech magnate in a cage match, but Musk hasn't confirmed a date. He further suggested August 26 for the face-off.

"I'm ready today. I suggested Aug 26 when he first challenged, but he hasn't confirmed. Not holding my breath... I love this sport and will continue competing with people who train no matter what happens here," he shared his Threads posts in his Instagram Stories.

Last week, Musk tested the live video feature on X and launched it too. In the video, he could be seen weightlifting.

Indirectly replying to the Facebook boss, the SpaceX CEO said that he was planning to get an MRI of his neck and upper back. He also said that he might have to undergo surgery before the fight happens. "Will know this week," he wrote.


When fans started picking sides, Musk decided to analyse the potential outcomes of the battle. He said that he will win it if the match is short, however, Zuckerberg is likely to have a winning advantage if it stretches for long as he has better endurance.

Currently weighing at least 300 lbs (136 kilograms), Musk said that he had the physical advantage. "If the fight is short, I probably win. If long, he may win on endurance. I am much bigger and there is a reason MMA has weight divisions... Aiming to get to 50-pound free weights this week. I build muscle fast. Physical endurance is my weak spot, so I'm aiming to make this quick," he added.



The talk of the cage fight initially started in June when Musk replied to a post about the news that Meta was releasing a Twitter competitor (Threads). To this, a user replied, "Better be careful @elonmusk I heard he does the jiu-jitsu now".

Musk said he was "up for a cage match." Zuckerberg immediately replied, "Send me the location". While Zuckerberg has been training Jiu-Jitsu for quite some time, Musk started recently.
