The coveted ‘fight between the billionaires’ is probably still on. Well, at least fans might say so after witnessing a recent incident. The famed UFC Heavyweight champ, Jon Jones, had expressed his support for the Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, in his potential “cage fight” against Elon Musk. Recently, the two also had a meeting at the Meta Headquarters. While ‘Zuck’ has been seen training with UFC champions, Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski, this meetup with ‘Bones’ might further strengthen the hopes of him taking on Musk inside the cage.

However, they did not go for training in this meetup. Instead, ‘Bones’ enjoyed some cutting-edge gaming at the Meta HQ. The heavyweight champion also put up a post on his Instagram profile, highlighting some of the moments from his visit to Meta HQ to test the ‘Meta Quest’. Unsurprisingly, the post garnered a huge number of reactions from the fans.

Jon Jones is not the first UFC star to visit Meta HQ and meet ‘Zuck’. A few months ago, UFC Featherweight kingpin, Alexander Volkanovski, had also walked into the Meta HQ to try out some virtual sparring with the ‘Threads’ boss.

After ‘Volk’s’ wholesome experience with the Facebook boss, ‘Bones’ also showcased similar feelings following his own meetup with Zuckerberg. The caption to his Instagram post read, If you’re a true warrior, competition doesn’t scare you. It makes you better.” Awesome day @meta HQ with @zuck perfecting our craft in the @metaquest”.
