Elon Musk is training with MMA champion and legend George St. Pierre.
In the Battle of the Billionaires, Elon Musk is getting the best MMA person for training. The Facebook CEO, Zuckerberg, has been training with Dave Caramillo and recently won his first amateur Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) tournament.
On Episode 1470 of the popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Elon Musk said that when he was a child, he trained in kyokushin karate, taekwondo, judo and “Brazilian jiu-jitsu briefly.”
Musk, 51, first challenged Zuckerberg to a cage match after Meta-owned Instagram reported plans to build a text-based social media platform to rival Musk’s Twitter.
There is discussion that Joe Rogan would be the referee.
@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 👊😁

However, Meta Billionaire Zuckerburg also has the best trainers. Zuckerberg has been hard core training for nearly two years. Zuckerberg has won a tournament and seems to be at the significant level of a competent blue belt.

Here's a highlight video of Mark Zuckerberg and I training jiu jitsu. I look forward to training with @elonmusk as well. It's inspiring to see both Elon and Mark taking on the martial arts journey. See the full video here: https://t.co/G1ubUuxILK pic.twitter.com/WsLaRiFf1o

I did an impromptu training session with @elonmusk for a few hours yesterday. I'm extremely impressed with his strength, power, and skill, on the feet and on the ground. It was epic. It's really inspiring to see Elon and Mark doing martial arts, but I think the world is served… pic.twitter.com/cq00A9Xnmw

Elon Musk had eight years of pain from a crushed disc and two neck surgeries after a fight with a sumo wrestler.

Mark Zuckerberg vs. Elon Musk in a cage match.
It’s great. In the olden days, think ancient Rome, Greece, rich Men would kick your ass. They didn’t send off everyone else to die while they sat back and gouged everyone on defense contracts.
A good trend.
beyond ridiculous. that being said, go Musk! sweep the floor with that alien looking motherf%cker!!
Can we get hight and weight for both? Please post the odds.
Please dear lord, can neither one exit the ring.
If they will fight, I will watch, but to be honest this idea is stupid AF.
LMAO. Agree with you on all accounts.
Just what is the POINT of all this?
Is this the man supposed to transfer us to Mars and install wires in our brains? The writing are on the wall on how he is going to end up.
Maybe Zuck will reveal himself as the android he truly is and will have superhuman strength. 🙂
Mark Zuckerberg vs. Elon Musk in a cage match. I don’t get it. You’d think between the two of them they have enough brain damage to go around already.
This whole thing is unbelivably cringe. I have to walk it off
This does not strike me as the smartest course of action. But I suppose anybody who had to interact with Zuckerberg at length would eventually be consumed by a desire to punch him in the face.
And what’s the point of being a billionaire if you can’t occasionally do something you really want to do?
Still, be a real shame if America and the world’s 2nd space age was still born because Musk got a closed skull injury.
Tim Pool believes it will not be a serious match. Something more like the Jake Paul boxing matches. If you have a Joe Rogan refereeing, there would be someone who would step in super quick to prevent injury.
That match was crap.
If they are gonna fight, it should be real.
I’m sure before they step into the ring, Musk will do a quick consciousness upload.
At least Zuck has been training in jujitsu rather than boxing.
This remind me that Newton is also a skilled fighter.
I can see that happening—it is why I still support Old Space.
