Welcome to the tech world’s new arena of battle. It’s not about products, it’s not about market shares; it’s about a showdown of the century. Yes, you read that right. It’s Elon Musk versus Mark Zuckerberg, a cage match in the making, a tech billionaire brawl that some believe needs to happen.
This surprising turn of events began when Musk, Tesla and Twitter CEO, tweeted his interest in a cage fight with Zuckerberg. Rather than laughing it off, Zuckerberg, Meta CEO, retorted with a screenshot of Musk’s tweet saying “send me location”. Musk’s response? “Vegas Octagon.”

To those sceptical, a Meta spokesperson confirmed Zuckerberg’s post was indeed serious. Now, it seems, we’re left in suspense, waiting for Musk’s next move. Musk, known for his tongue-in-cheek humour, said he has a ‘walrus’ move ready, where he’d just lie on top of his opponent, doing nothing.
I have this great move that I call “The Walrus”, where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing

While this might seem sudden, it’s not without context. Musk has been baiting Zuckerberg ever since more details about Meta’s forthcoming Twitter competitor emerged.
If this match happens, it’ll be quite the show. Musk, with street fighting experience, won’t be an easy opponent. But don’t overlook Zuckerberg. He’s a successful Jiu-Jitsu competitor and fitness enthusiast. Both could bring surprises to the fight.
This Musk-versus-Zuckerberg brawl would be a treat for all, a mix of technology, entertainment, and suspense, and it’s a clash that needs to happen. Musk, the ball is in your court. Let’s keep the banter aside, and see who takes home the victory in the Vegas Octagon.
