Do we really need to see this?
The answer is no. But according to Elon Musk, it’s happening.
That would be the cage match between the X (still calling it Twitter here) owner and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg that’s been much-discussed over the past few months as we’ve seen Musk tweet about it and Zuck show off his muscles.
Per Musk on Friday, there will be a fight. It’ll be managed by their respective foundations. It’ll be livestreamed on Meta and X (Twitter). It’ll be in Rome. That’s all we’ve got so far as we await response from Zuckerberg.
Here you go:
The fight will be managed by my and Zuck’s foundations (not UFC).
Livestream will be on this platform and Meta. Everything in camera frame will be ancient Rome, so nothing modern at all.
I spoke to the PM of Italy and Minister of Culture. They have agreed on an epic location.

Also, Musk tweeted this earlier in the week:
Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on 𝕏.
All proceeds will go to charity for veterans.
