Elon Musk threatened to drive to Mark Zuckerberg’s house in Palo Alto, Calif. to fight the fellow tech billionaire if Zuckerberg answered the door. Musk made the comments on his social media platform X.
“For the Tesla FSD test drive in Palo Alto tonight, I will ask the car to drive to @finkd’s house. Will also test latest X livestream video, so you can monitor our adventure in real-time! If we get lucky and Zuck my actually answers the door, the fight is on!” he wrote.
In a follow-up comment, Musk said, “(Zuck thread coming soon about how he would of course love to fight anytime, but blah blah UFC something something)

Musk later posted an alleged reply from a Zuckerberg spokesperson.
“”Mark is traveling right now and isn’t in Palo Alto,” the post said. “Also, Mark takes this sport seriously and isn’t going to fight someone who randomly shows up at his house,” the statement purportedly said.
Musk then replied to a gif of Zuckerberg running with his security team in Berlin with the caption, “”There was some hasty bag packing at the Zuckerberg residence today! Traveling my a–.”
Exactly 😂😂

The two billionaires have talked about fighting each other in a cage match since late June. UFC President Dana White has offered to promote it. Both men have posted photos training with some of the best fighters in the world, including current UFC champions.
