Tesla, SpaceX, and Twitter hotshot Elon Musk is very serious about his upcoming fight with the man behind the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, Mark Zuckerberg if Lex Fridman is to be believed.
Fridman, a Russian-American computer scientist, podcaster and artificial intelligence researcher confronted Musk right after the session with Zuckerberg, and here’s what he had to say.

In a video posted by Fridman on his YouTube channel, he is seen practicing some jiu-jitsu with Zuckerberg, writing, “Mark Zuckerberg and I practiced some jiu-jitsu after our recent podcast conversation. It was inspiring to see Mark and Elon take part in the martial arts journey. I look forward to training with both of them in the coming months and years. For context, I am a black belt in jiu-jitsu and have been doing it for over 15 years, and also judo and wrestling for another 10 years.”
Here’s a picture of the two, fighting:
The two look equally matched on the mat as Zuckerberg excels in mixed martial arts (MMA) and recently won a jiu-jitsu tournament. Zuckerberg took up martial arts training during COVID, even telling Vice, “MMA is the perfect thing. After an hour or two of exercise, or rolling or wrestling with friends, or practicing with different people, like now I’m ready to solve whatever problem is at work for the day.”
Here’s the proof:
This Is How Elon Musk Vs. Mark Zuckerberg Becomes a Reality

A week ago, a Twitter user posted about a new Twitter competitor, called “Threads” as an upcoming product from Meta, and wondered if Twitter would finally have good competition.
Musk soon responded to the Tweet, wrote, “I’m sure Earth can’t wait to be exclusively under Zuck’s thumb with no other options. At least it would be ‘sane’. Worried there for a moment ?.”
Another Twitter user joined the conversation, warning Musk, “Better watch out @elonmusk I hear he’s doing jujitsu now ?????????.”
Musk threw down the gloves!
I’m ready for a cage match if he is lol

Not to be outdone, Zuckerberg posted a screenshot of this Twitter exchange on his Instagram Story, pictured below:

Musk responded moments later with another tweet which reads, “Vegas Octagon,” referring to the most popular location for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) matches.
He’s also more than happy to share his ace moves, but we doubt it scares Zuckerberg!
I have a great move I call “The Walrus”, where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing

If we think about the actual fight, the 51-year-old Musk definitely has the size advantage as he is taller and heavier than the 39-year-old Meta owner.
Also, according to Musk, he was involved in a tough street fight. That said, Zuckerberg is apparently an MMA champion so watching the two grighs is probably as good as it gets.

Barely a few days after Fridman trained with Zuckerberg, it appeared that he and Elon Musk got into a friendly match where Musk got to show off his prowess by slamming Fridman to the mat, bulging muscles and tendons and all!
Fridman was apparently blown away, as he wrote, “I did an impromptu training session with Elon Musk for a few hours yesterday. I was in awe of his strength, power and skill, on his feet and on the ground. It was epic.”
He was also quick to praise Zuckerberg, but at the same time also felt that “cage fighting” was not the way to go, writing, “It’s really inspiring to see Elon and @zuck doing martial arts, but I think the world is served much more well if they train martial arts but don’t fight in a cage. That said, as Elon said, the most entertaining outcome is most likely… I’m there for them, no matter what.”
Here’s another glimpse of Musk, and it shows that the Twitter owner means business, even on the mat!
