Elon Musk has claimed that his confrontation with Mark Zuckerberg will be live-streamed on X and all proceeds will go to charity.
Both Musk and the Facebook founder have been featured in the photo since the former tweeted in June the idea that they would face each other in a “cage match.”
Dana White quickly got involved in the burgeoning clash between social media moguls, noting that the clash could take place in the UFC and be “the greatest fight of all time.”
Despite indications that the clash may not take place over concerns from Musk’s mother, the Tesla founder confirmed he is preparing for battle.
“Been lifting weights all day preparing for the fight. I don’t have time to exercise, so I just take them to work.’ Musk tweeted on Sunday.

The CEO of Meta, who started Threads as a direct competitor to Musk’s platform, recently made his competitive debut in the grappling art, winning medals in both Gi and No-Gi.
