Will Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg fight in the Colosseum?

The battle of the richest men in the world is upon us. Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have already agreed on a fight, but where could it be? Check out what the Italian Government said about the potential UFC cage fight between the two billionaires, via this Ministry of Culture’s Office statement.

(All quotes via TMZ.)

“There has been no formal contact from the ministry, nor any written document. Even if the news appears tasty, it is unfounded.”

The Ministry would then reach out to Zuckerberg in an attempt to plan the fight. They would then send a request out to Dana White, the President of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).

“If Zuckerberg and Musk wanted to perform in the Colosseum, they would have to make a non-violent challenge.”

It was later made public that an official from the Italian government contacted Zuckerberg in an attempt to schedule the UFC fight against Musk in the Colosseum.

Truly imagine this, two of the biggest public figures in the world going head-to-head in a cage fight in the most famous stadium in the world. Musk would later tweet on the matter of the fight in the Colosseum.

Both Zuckerberg and Musk have fighting backgrounds. Zuckerberg has been invested in the UFC world recently. In around two years of progress, Zuckerberg has competed in Brazilian jujitsu, even competing in tournaments around his area. Mark Zuckerberg has already proven he can handle himself in the octagon, winning gold and silver in his very first jujitsu tournament. Musk has been improving his fighting abilities recently as well, as the Tesla CEO has even been certified by a Brazilian jiujitsu Black Belt.

Who will win this epic matchup between the billionaires? Let us know in the comments.
