Zuckerberg accused Musk of hyping a fight that he doesn't really want to have.
shared by the journalist Walt Mossberg and later by Musk on Sunday, Musk texted Zuckerberg about "a practice bout at your house," adding that he had "not been practicing much."
Zuckerberg declined the offer, telling Musk to train on his own and let him know when he is ready to compete in "a real MMA fight." "I don't want to keep hyping something that will never happen, so you should either decide you're going to do this and do it soon, or we should move on," Zuckerberg said.Since Zuckerberg's post, Musk has replied to multiple X posts implying that Zuckerberg is scared to get in the ring with him.Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities who has followed Musk and Zuckerberg for years, believes that a fight between the two billionaires is not yet out of the question.
"This is a beat that's not going away," he tells CNBC Make It. "I think it's complex logistics. Musk doesn't want Zuckerberg to have the upper hand in the when, where and how this fight happens."
