Elon Musk is training with Georges St-Pierre, John Danaher

The MMA life is coming fast for Elon Musk. 

It’s only been weeks since he and Mark Zuckerberg agreed to fight and it looks like he’s taking things very seriously. 

On Monday, July 3 a photo was shared of Musk training with former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre and famed BJJ coach John Danaher. The image was shared by AI scientist Lex Fridman who previously shared some images of Musk’s training. 

One of the greatest MMA fighters of all time training with Musk is a big sign that, at the very least, Musk thinks this fight could happen and wants to be prepared for it. 

“Great training session with 3 men that I really admire. Combined IQ in this photo is 1000. « Not including me »,” St-Pierre tweeted along with the photo of the four men. 

St-Pierre had offered to help Musk prepare for the potential bout on June 24. 

“@elonmusk I’m a huge fan of yours and it would be an absolute honor to help you and be your training partner for the challenge against Zuckerberg,” he tweeted. 

So far no official fight has been made but it seems UFC president Dana White is keen on hosting, as are several international promoters.
