<p>However, Zuckerberg used his own social media site, Threads, to declare that he likes this sport and has been prepared to compete ever since “Musk challenged me.”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>“You’ll hear it from me if he ever accepts a real date. Please consider everything he says in the meantime to be unconfirmed, Zuckerberg said in the statement.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I won’t be holding my breath for Elon, but I’ll let you know more about my next battle when I’m ready, he said.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Prior to this, Musk said he had spoken to the Italian prime minister and minister of culture over hosting the event.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But according to Zuckerberg, no date has been set.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>“When I compete, I want to do it in a manner that draws attention to the top-tier professional athletes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To pull this off successfully and produce a terrific show, you do so by collaborating with professional orgs like the UFC or ONE, according to Meta CEO.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jiu-jitsu blue belt Zuckerberg, 39, just took home gold and silver in a competition.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Musk also shared the term “gladiator” along with two cross-swords emojis.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>According to Musk, “some chance fight happens in the Colosseum.”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The “fight will be managed by my and Zuck’s foundations (not UFC),” Musk said on X (previously Twitter). This portal will provide live streaming, and</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Metaphorically, nothing will be contemporary since the whole scene will be set in ancient Rome.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Musk later said in a statement that “anything done will respect Italy’s history and present. And every money raised benefits veterans.</p>
