For years now, fans have been waiting to see two of the world’s hottest billionaires fight contained in the octagon. With the rumors first starting in 2023, fans also soon jumped on the wagon of seeing Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg against X’s Elon Musk in a UFC\/MMA fight.<\/p>\n

With many celebrities and industry insiders & outsiders talking in regards to the fan, fans never saw it come into fruition. Nonetheless, UFC President Dana White recently shared a significant update regarding the fight and certain details and roadblocks.<\/p>\n

Following UFC\u2019s Fight Night event on Jun. 20, 2026, Dana White opened as much as the media<\/a> a couple of potential event on the Roman Colosseum between Zuckerberg and Musk. Nonetheless, White shared how expensive such an event could turn into.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s inconceivable, because I used to be negotiating the cope with Zuckerberg and Musk. That was real. I used to be literally in my backyard for 2 weeks negotiating that fight, they usually wanted the Colosseum. The Colosseum wanted something like $150 million to do it there, which that cash would go right into a fund that restores all the enduring places in Italy,\u201d White said. \u201cThe Colosseum would take Zuckerberg fighting Musk to occur, because those people were going to place up the cash for the Colosseum.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also elaborated on whether the UFC would arrange a fight if another person offered the sum of cash to run the event. \u201cAnybody that desires to place up the cash for UFC to fight within the Colosseum, I\u2019m in.\u201d<\/p>\n

The hypothetical fight garnered immense public attention when it emerged in 2023, as each individuals exchanged taunts on social media, however the discussion eventually died down. Interestingly, Zuckerberg also actively trains in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and Mixed Martial Arts.<\/p>\n
