Zuckerberg trained with Israel Adesanya, the middleweight champion and Alex Volkanovski, the featherweight champion and shared a shirtless picture with his shredded body on full display. He captioned the post saying: “It’s an honour to train with you guys!”
Adesanya also posted the same picture and captioned it: “No fugazi with Mark”, accompanied by a shark emoji. In response, Zuckerberg graciously expressed his gratitude in the comments section, thanking the UFC stars for their unwavering support.
Zuckerberg sharing a picture of him preparing for the fight comes weeks after Musk posted a similar photo after his session with UFC legend George St-Pierre.
“Mark Zuckerberg hit me up first and said, ‘Is he serious?’ I said, ‘I don’t know, let me ask him.’ I asked him and he said, ‘Yeah, I’m dead serious’,” added White.
“This would be the biggest fight ever in the history of the world. Bigger than anything that’s ever been done. It would break all pay-per-view records. These guys would raise hundreds of millions of dollars for charity, and you don’t have to be a fight fan to be interested in this fight.”
“I’m sure Earth can’t wait to be exclusively under Zuck’s thumb with no other options. At least it will be ‘sane’. Was worried there for a moment,” Musk tweeted with a crying-laughing emoji.
Since then, the rivalry has only intensified between the duo. After Meta launched Threads, Musk and his team filed a legal case against Zuckerberg for copying Twitter. Days later, Musk took a stinging jibe at Zuckerberg by tweeting, “Zuck is a cuck”.
