The tech billionaires have been mooting the idea of a UFC-style clash for some time.
Mark Zuckerberg says he is « not holding his breath » over the proposed bout between himself and Elon Musk taking place.
The Facebook founder says he suggested the date of 26 August to his fellow tech entrepreneur, but Musk has not responded.
Posting on his new platform Threads, Zuckerberg also claimed he was « ready today » to enter the ring.
In a gentle jibe at his would-be opponent, Meta’s CEO also responded to Musk’s claim that the fight would be streamed on X (formerly known as Twitter).
« Shouldn’t we use a more reliable platform that can actually raise money for charity? » he quipped.
Zuckerberg continued the Silicon Valley based trash-talk by responding to a follower who asked if the decision to stream on X had been mutually agreed, writing: « More like ‘funding secured’.
