New Delhi: The highly anticipated cage combat between Twitter owner Elon Musk and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been cancelled, according to Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s mother Maye Musk, who announced, “I have cancelled the fight.” Elon Musk reacted to a user by suggesting he’d be “up for a cage match” with Mark Zuckerberg, igniting the social media challenge known as the “fight of the century.” In response, the founder of Meta posted a screenshot of Musk’s tweet with the comment “send me location” on Twitter.
“Actually, I cancelled the fight. I haven’t told them yet. But I will continue to say the fight is cancelled, just in case,” she said on Twitter. Elon Musk also reacted to the tweet with a laughing emoji. In a series of tweets, Maye Musk said that it is a “great relief” that “the fight has now been cancelled”.
Lex Fridman, a Podcast presenter, said, “A jiu-jitsu bout between Elon and Zuck would undoubtedly make for an entertaining plot twist in this simulation. For it, I’m all in.” The response from Musk was, “Let’s go full MMA (mixed martial arts)”.
Social media users who expected at least a few confrontations between the owners of two internet behemoths were taken aback by her remarks. Everything started when Musk reacted to Meta’s article about the forthcoming launch of a Twitter competitor.
