Who would have thought——
Two heavyweights in the technology circle, Zuckerberg and Musk , actually started a fight , and it was an offline fight!
First, the 51-year-old Musk took the initiative to challenge on Twitter, saying that he would have an offline "cage fight" with the 39-year-old Zha .
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zha responded quickly and directly said, "Send me the address . "
This situation directly confused the melon-eaters:
A top business tycoon has such virtues and engages in this kind of offline fight? ? ?
What's even more shocking is that both parties seem to be serious - a Meta spokesperson confirmed that Xiao Zha was not joking.
Not to be outdone, Musk went "right in the Octagon in the Casino" and claimed that he had mastered a "trick" that could easily pin down his opponents.
Now, not only the melon-eating netizens, but also most of the big names in the technology circle came to watch.
Former Google senior robotics researcher Eric Jang "directly bet one-tenth of his assets" on whoever wins:
Lex Fridman, the famous AI podcast host and MIT research scientist, is even more supportive, "Jiu Jitsu is the highlight":
Musk enjoyed it and responded personally:
This must not be a direct match of MMA (mixed martial arts) !
He also seems to be confident in himself.
This matter not only caused a stir abroad and made headlines on major websites, it even spread to domestic social media and quickly became a trending topic on Zhihu:
So, how did these two people "fight"?
Musk's "talking" scene
The cause of the incident must start with Xiao Zha.
At the beginning of this month, foreign media released news that Meta will soon launch a competing application for Twitter called "Threads", which will allow Instagram users to automatically transfer their followers and user information directly to this new application.

But that's not important. What's important is that at Meta's internal all-hands meeting last week, its chief product officer, Chris Cox, told Meta employees that what users want is a tool that " runs sanely." run) ” a Twitter-like product. As soon as he finished speaking, he won thunderous applause from everyone.
In addition, Xiao Zha was also "yin and yang weird" in a recent interview with a blog:
I always thought Twitter should be used by 1 billion people.
The meanings of the two are so obvious that anyone who understands them can understand them.
And just when a Twitter influencer posted a tweet discussing the matter and asking "Can Threads become a real competitor to Twitter?" Musk finally opened the microphone:
I am sure that the earth has no choice and cannot wait to be completely controlled by Zucker (Berg).
As the saying goes, "It's no big deal to watch the excitement." Upon seeing this, an enthusiastic netizen immediately started to express his anger:
Mr. Ma, you better be careful. I heard that Zuckerberg is practicing jiu-jitsu now.
Musk, who has never been a vegetarian, can he bear this?
So the scene we saw at the beginning came directly: Come on, let’s fight in a cage.
Not only that, after the verbal attack, Musk also directly sent out this tweet in the evening to ridicule:
It is estimated that all the declarations of war reached Xiao Zha’s ears very quickly.
Just when everyone thought Musk was just joking, Zuckerberg actually took it seriously . Under this situation, Musk showed no fear and quickly gave the date of the fight:
The Octagon in Las Vegas. (This is the venue used for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), which is headquartered in Las Vegas)
Interestingly, UFC President Dana White also "fanned the flames" in an interview with TMZ Sports:
If these two are serious, then we're setting up a paid event for them!
Not only are the big guys serious about asking for a fight, but the crowd is also very involved in debating "who will win . "
Netizens who support Zuckerberg mainly focus on his younger age and BJJ blue belt .
BJJ refers to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and obtaining a blue belt means that Zuckerberg is at least a "beginner" and is more experienced than a white belt "beginner."
Audiences who support Musk seem to be more optimistic about his "purely natural body advantage" - not only taller , but also a "heavyweight" heavier than Zuckerberg.
After all, weight is a very important part of fighting, otherwise there would be no fighting rules for weight classes.
"Daily Mail" also made a comprehensive comparison chart of the two people's abilities, including age, height, weight, nationality, net worth (?) and "training experience", etc.:

Well, there are even sportsbooks that have established betting odds.
Currently, BetOnline gives Musk higher odds. As shown below, "+300" means that if you bet Musk for $100, you will make a net profit of $300; "-500" means that if you bet Zuckerberg for $500, you will only make a net profit of $100:
So when this wave of fighting started, what was the actual situation like?
AI "restores" the fighting scene
Not to mention, the AI has "restored" the match scene between the two.
This is a drawing drawn by Twitter blogger @gaut of Musk and Zuckerberg’s “eye-to-eye phase” before the start of the game:
As for how to determine victory or defeat? Netizen @Daniella Souza said that big names in the technology circle naturally have to play some "black technology" and directly use robots as referees:
The actual fight was even more intense. @Engadget predicted that Zuckerberg would give Musk a chokehold:
Of course, boxing is not ruled out in the final match.
Some netizen @Déborah gave the preparation stage before the two men’s boxing. It seems that the war is about to break out:
Some netizen @Diana Dukic has even "leaked" the video. It seems that the two sides are fighting closely:
Of course, a winner must be decided in the end. Netizen @Santa AI believes that Musk will win, and even the gold belt is ready for him:
One More Thing
In fact, this fight, which seems to be about to break out, once again reminds people of the two people's "long-standing grievances" in the past:
First, in 2016, Musk’s Falcon 9 rocket suffered a second tragic failure.
Just as Lao Ma rushed to the scene anxiously, Xiao Zha directly posted a taunt, expressing "disappointment and anger", saying that Musk's failure directly destroyed their original satellite.
Another "festival" between the two dates back to 2018, when Facebook was exposed to have kept private data of 50 million users.
Seeing the trend, Musk directly removed the Facebook pages of SpaceX and Tesla, and publicized the matter everywhere, fearing that everyone would not know, and even said:
I don’t even know SpaceX has a Facebook account. I do know Tesla’s, but this page looks lame.
The gap between the two of them is not small at all. If this fight is successful, it is estimated that the battle will be quite fierce...
So, who do you think will win? (Manual dog head)
