Here’s another twist in the Elon Musk vs Mark Zuckerberg’s ‘cage fight’, as again both tech leaders entered into an indirect war of words.

Musk-Zuckerberg cage fight takes a new turn!

And it all started when Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a story on Instagram, “Send me the location” along with the screenshot of Musk’s tweet where he first challenged him.

Now, responding to this, the X-owner accused Zuckerberg of apparently not accepting the challenge.

In his latest tweet on X, formerly known as Twitter, Elon Musk stated, “Fight Recap: I joked on X about fighting Zuck, Zuck then said “SEND ME LOCATION” Italy graciously offered a Colosseum Zuck declined I suggested his home as “safe space” Tragically, he was ahem “travelling” Is there anywhere he will fight?”

Time to move on: Zuckerberg’s new Threads left Internet talking

Meanwhile, another post of Zuckerberg hit the headlines through his post on Threads- ‘time to move on’ as it left the Internet in dilemma whether it was an end to the X vs Threads row or not. 

In a post on Threads, Meta CEO said that he was going to ‘focus on competing with people who take the sport seriously.’

“I think we can all agree Elon isn’t serious and it’s time to move on. I offered a real date. Dana White offered to make this a legit competition for charity. Elon won’t confirm a date, then says he needs surgery, and now asks to do a practice round in my backyard instead,” he added.

However, it didn’t go well with Musk and in responding to it he threw some jabs at his tech rival, saying “Zuck is a chicken.”

How it all started?

According to media reports, both CEOs first sparked conversations about a potential MMA-style cage match in a series of back-and-forth messages on their platforms. Musk kicked off the exchange while replying to a June 20 X thread where he wrote, “I’m up for a cage match if he is lol.”

Interestingly, to make this cage fight more intense, Musk posted that the “Zuck v Musk fight” would be live-streamed via X with all proceeds going to charity. While Meta CEO fired back at Musk, taking a subtle dig at X/Twitter, when he wrote on Threads, “Shouldn’t we use a more reliable platform that can actually raise money for charity?”
