Billionaire Mark Zuckerberg said that billionaire Elon Musk was not serious when he did not give a specific date for the competition and said he had to treat his injury. On the contrary, the Tesla boss criticized the Facebook owner for being cowardly.
Fans will most likely not be able to witness the match between two of the richest people in the world, after billionaire Mark Zuckerberg criticized rival Elon Musk for deliberately delaying it

Mr. Zuckerberg said if Mr. Musk is serious, “he knows how to find me.” “On the contrary, it’s time to leave. I will focus on competing with people who are serious about sports,” Mr. Zuckerberg wrote.
According to AFP, Mr. Musk immediately responded on his social network X (formerly known as Twitter). “Zuck is such a chicken,” Mr. Musk wrote, referring to the Facebook boss as a coward. “I can’t wait to knock on his door tomorrow,” said Mr. Musk, who will arrive in Silicon Valley, Mr. Zuckerberg’s residence, on August 14.
Mr. Elon Musk has not yet given a specific competition date
The idea of an iron cage martial arts match between the two technology billionaires started in June, when Mr. Musk replied to an online comment that he was willing to participate. Mr. Zuckerberg then took a screenshot of Mr. Musk’s comment and asked to “send the address”.
Mr. Musk initially said the match could take place in Las Vegas (Nevada state) but recently said he had talked to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni about holding the match at the Coliseum in Rome.
According to the world’s richest man, the match will be broadcast live, organized by the two players’ own funds and the proceeds will go to veterans. However, Mr. Musk did not specify the specific date of the competition and also said he had a shoulder injury and needed surgery, which could take several months.
