Elon Musk is preparing for a potential cage match against Mark Zuckerburg and the Twitter CEO has accepted the offer of UFC legend Georges St-Pierre to train him ahead of what would be a spectacular battle.
UFC hall of famer Georges St-Pierre took to Twitter on Monday to offer his services to Elon Musk in preparation for the battle of the billionaires.
Georges St-Pierre initiated the conversation with the billionaire Twitter CEO, as he said: “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.”

Elon Musk replied early on Tuesday morning, with the 51 year old eager to begin his training with one of the best UFC fighters in history.
St-Pierre (26-2-0) is a French-Canadian fighter who managed to obtain championships in both the welterweight and middleweight divisions before retiring in 2017.
The former UFC star was last seen in action when coming out of retirement to defeat then-UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping in 2017, before he retired once more following an impressive victory.
What originally began as a joke on Twitter between the billionaires swiftly became one of the most highly anticipated fights of all time, as the CEO’s agreed to battle it out int the octagon.
Mr Zuckerberg, the boss of Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta, already has experience in fighting as he has been training in mixed martial arts (MMA) and has recently won jiu-jitsu tournaments.
Musk on the other hand has a lot of work to do ahead of the fight if it is to happen, as he admitted last week that: “I almost never work out, except for picking up my kids & throwing them in the air.”
