The viral Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg beef started almost a month ago. When the founder of Facebook launched an analogous app to X, formerly known as Twitter. This enraged Musk, as he accused his rival of having employed former X employees and using their trade secrets to build a similar app of their own. So, amidst this whole drama, Musk challenged him to an MMA fight, as he wrote, “I’m up for a cage match if he is lol.” This spurred the internet, and later, Dana White confirmed that the intention of both billionaires was to fight for real.
Moreover, the UFC president recently hopped onto Mike Tyson‘s podcast, Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, where White talked about the prospects of this mega event. However, Tyson also revealed one of the arguments that he had with his wife, Lakiha Spicer, over this bout!
