Are these two for real? What the hell is the point of this charade? It's not like they need the publicity.

Twi(a)ts, the pair of them (swear word filter dodge)

Or am I missing something here?

Probably not.

Nope. Is it possible for both of them to lose?

Brilliant.  I'd pay to watch that.

Because partly what drives them is that they are still children in the playground trying to make friends and not understanding why they can't seem to make any.

What a time to be alive!

Where there is no longer a difference between the headlines on the BBC and the Daily Mash

Can we not see the return of Roman-style Gladiatorial combat instead? You know... tigers and bears and stuff?

Your money would have be on Zuckerberg, he looks like he occasionally does a bit of exercise.

The best description I've seen of Musk is 'like someone pumped John Barrowman full of mayonnaise', and now I can't unsee it.

Celebrity Deathmatch in real life!

What a time to be alive.

Ain't gonna happen though.  Musk knows he would get choked out in 3 seconds flat.  That's assuming Zuckerberg doesn't decide to punch him in the face a few times just for fun.

Age and training is more than a match for whatever Musk thinks he has going for himself.

Elon Musk (or someone pretending to be him) started following me on instagram yesterday so I'll be cheering for him if this happens.

Didn't he do some ridiculous run in a plate vest carrier recently? Although he also styles his hair like a Roman Emperor (on purpose) so there is that.

zuckerburg reminds me of the little guy from fight club.  I wouldn't mess.  Look at those staring dead eyes.

that said if musk turns up in his ironman suit it'll be game over

Reminds me of Jon Favreau's character on Friends - hopefully Musk takes a battering to (not that I'm a Zuckerberg fan but anyone, legally, giving Musk a beating gets my support)

He's won a couple of BJJ tournaments and trains in MMA, apparently.

Musk occasionally picks up his kids (to be fair, that's quite a lot of volume work).

I read it as Musk wanting to show he is top dog and Zuckerberg calling his bluff.

Musk is a complete fud.  Zuckerberg is mearly a fanny

pretty sure I read the other week he's actually pretty handy at BJJ. So it's easy to see why [i]he's[/i] agreed to it!

yup. Someone has to!!

from what I've read zuckerburg is a very focused individual with unlimited resources to hand. Something popped up a while back that he had been big wave surfing. he'd employed some of the best big wave surfers in the world, trained and gone done it. Same with BJJ/MMA.

musk gets stoned and tweets bullshit with a messiah complex.

Historically, Musk isn't much good at backpedalling, so this should be good. He is likely to take a absolute battering, so will be looking for a way to get out of it while saving face.

Yes, Zukerberg is just your run-of-the-mill billionaire ****. Musk is up there with Vlad Putin and Donald Trump as the most dislikeable person on earth.

Publicity whore makes ridiculous announcement. Big surprise.

That would, however, be an interesting fight, if they ended up killing each other the world would be a better place, or actually it would make no difference.

I love it, its like the playground all over again.  Someone says something to someone else and then it gets escalated to a point that nno-one can back down.  Its just now its the global media standing in a ring shouting "fight, fight, fight" rather than a bunch of teenagers with their ties on backwards.

The run was the easy bit of it. Run a mile, then 100 pull ups, 200 pressups, 300 squats and then a further mile.
He is supposed to decide to do a new thing(s) each year or couple of years and really dedicates himself to it. Currently its fitness and BJJ/MMA.
Does seem its mostly Musk to blame here. Did a stupid challenge and Zuckerberg said yes to it. Since, after all, I think even Ghandhi would have been thinking about giving up pacifism for the chance to punch Musk.

Any chance we can fill the ring with a couple of big angry alligators or similar just to spice things up a bit?

As much as I would enjoy seeing Zuck make Musk tap, I can't see the Emerald Mining Nepo Baby ever getting in there.  He'll dodge it.

I hope they both lose if that's even possible.

I've just compared it to the Manchester derby... you kinda hope an asteroid would fall from the sky and wipe everyone involved out 🙂

My mate Paul is a poet and a very funny man. I’ve shared his work on here before.

Here’s his take on it

SIZE CLEARLY MATTERS
(APPARENTLY)

Two little billionaires
Stand against the wall
One glances down
And is not impressed at all

Shocked inferiority -
Scared of what he sees
He announces his intention
While he loudly stands and pees

“Look at me!”
“How tough I am!”
“Observe me filled with rage!”
“I’ll bet you couldn’t beat me up”
“If we scrapped in a cage!”

And so it was, the children
With their gold and more to spare
Pronounced to us their hardness
And we really didn’t care.

😂 at that tweet from Andrew Tate. He was a kick-boxer. The martial art that looked at Muay Thai and went “nah, looks dangerous. Let’s do a safety version” will probably find it difficult to train someone from inside a Romanian prison too.

Thanks, I am never, ever going to be able to unsee that myself!

Looking at Muskrat, I’m a 69 yo with arthritis in my wrists, but I’m pretty sure I could plant a punch on his face that would make him sit and weep like a 5 yo.
Just to make absolutely certain, I’ve got some Oakley tactical gloves I used to wear on the bike, they’ve got carbon fibre knuckle protection; sure, it’s cheating but this is Musk we’re talking about!

What the actual **** are "tactical gloves"?

Like, in what scenario do you expect to need warmer hands for tactical reasons?

I don't think we need to enquire too closely about his matrimonial relationships.

I think if anything good can come of this it’ll be the fact that it’s distracted musk long enough for him to not have time or inclination to call anyone involved in the attempt to locate and rescue the Titan sub a pedo.

yet.

I did see a suggestion that one of his cronies got him to challenge Zuckerberg in order to distract him from the submarine.

Is cage fighting going to be the next penis rocket then? When do we get to the bit where all these billionaires just line up behind a table, unzip and slap them out. Then they can all have a look at each other, and the rest of us can get on with our lives.

What a bunch of onanists
