UFC President Dana White has recently teased a possible fight between Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Tesla co-founder and CEO Elon Musk . These tech billionaires went viral on social media when Musk responded to a report about Zuckerberg launching his own version of Twitter.
Elon had responded, "I'm up for a cage match if he is lol." Reacting to this comment, the Facebook founder didn’t hold back and shared a message of his own on social media. He posted, "Send me location," referring to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s words before taking on Conor McGregor. Hence further fueling rumours regarding the possible fight, White recently shared a video of himself, wearing a Zuckerberg vs Musk UFC t-shirt.

Talking about this fight, Dana White revealed that both fighters are ready and waiting to lock horns. He also talked about how Zuckerberg asked him about Musk’s commitment and then later when he contacted the Tesla co-founder, Musk expressed that he was dead serious.
“I was talking to both Elon and Mark last night,’ White told TMZ. “Both guys are absolutely dead serious about this. They both want to do it. Mark Zuckerberg hit me up first and said: ‘Is he serious? And I said, ‘I don’t know, let me ask him,’ and I asked him and he said, ‘Yeah, I’m dead serious.’
Further in the interview, Dana White described this fight to be the biggest in the history of the world. White also believes that it could also break all pay-per-view records and generate a revenue triple that of the Mayweather vs McGregor bout. “This would be the biggest fight ever in the history of the world, bigger than anything that’s ever been done,” he said.
“It would break all pay-per-view records. I think it triples [Mayweather-McGregor]. There’s no limit on what this thing can make. I don’t think either one of them needs the money,” White added.
