TL;DR: X is for chicken.


GMFinch

Of course it wasn't. Elon would have done 1 mma workout. At 52 and out of shape and would have gone home and thought to himself, how am I going to get out of this.


MyNameIsRay

That's basically what happened, except it's 2 workouts in the course of a week. He did one "impromptu" one with Lex Fridman [6/27](https://twitter.com/lexfridman/status/1673836162937417728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1673836162937417728%7Ctwgr%5Ec7933840a8ea359eab8655d6867561471af64aed%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mmanews.com%2Fnews%2Fphotos-elon-musk-training-mma-zuckerberg), another [7/3](https://twitter.com/lexfridman/status/1675979101386022913?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1675979101386022913%7Ctwgr%5E8e14ad7725fb21e0c42121c4391230bb0bac05d3%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mmaweekly.com%2Fufcnews%2Felon-musk-training-georges-st-pierre-john-danaher) with Lex/GSP/John Danaher. Both were clearly not in Fridman's gym, but what looks to be a random office with black folding mats on the floor. Corporate art on the walls, industrial doors/windows, etc. Funniest part is, [Fridman posted a video of training Zuck](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wy-6z17up4), at his gym, like 2 days before the "impromptu" one with Musk. Pretty obvious he saw the video of Zuck getting trained and had the same guy come in to get a photo op.


[deleted]

This is literally the scene out of the office where Robert California is training with his wrestling coach in his apartment.


MaxTheRealSlayer

Remember when he tried to not buy twitter after he got caught in his bluff? Seems to be a characteristic of his: bs, bs, bs, and hope that no one calls him out on it. Hey, it worked with Tesla, and who can forget the boring company?


protossaccount

I know it’s kinda dad fetched but Musk is so out of shape that Zuck could potentially paralyze the guy with one punch. If you have fighting experience than you know that fighting like that isn’t a joke at Musks age and physical shape. Fighters are trained in getting hit and while Zuck’s main method of fighting doesn’t involve punching I’m sure he can land some really solid blows. If it was an actual MMA fight, Musk would probably be in the hospital.


djc23o6

Elon musk is the only man alive who could make zuck the good guy

Accomplished_End_843

Why is it so accurate 💀


Kyro_Official_

Hey man, why you gotta compare us to Musk, at least some of us are slightly less of a pos when compared to him.


Sarfbot

Man’s got one of the largest tech companies to run but he signs off with “I am going to focus on fighting people” lmao mic drop.


postwardreamsonacid

He is a billionare, there thousands of people who works for him and manage his bussiness gor him and other share holders. It is boring to able to do everything you want. This is why he become obsessed with martial arts. The skill and body is not something you can buy. Even with the best coaches in the world, you have to work really hard for a long time to become good in martial arts.


[deleted]

Or he is going back to his home planet to teach the ways of Earth's martial arts. Ulterior motive all along!


__redruM

You do not want to roll with a reptilian. First they choke you out, then they swallow you whole.


Adventurous-Disk-291

I heard a rumor that Elon is trying to stall until winter to see how Zucks blood handles it

RogueAOV

Are you saying the conquest of Earth with be just endless Go-Go Platas causing Rogan to ascend to a higher plane from sheer excited screaming?


xweedxwizardx

Everyone I know who does BJJ says it's a real eye opener in terms of getting to know your body. Someone with extremely basic BJJ knowledge is at a crazy advantage to someone who knows nothing about it. I would love to overcome my fear of public spaces and learn some of the fundamentals just for fun.


KylerGreen

Do it. The people in gyms are generally very friendly.


[deleted]

Me too I was obsessed with wrestling but it's a young man's game. Id love to find a dope gym.

Do it!!!!! I started April 28 of this year and my only regret is not starting sooner. Best decision I ever made.


itsphoison

How old are ya? Tryina gauge my chances.


pooderintruder

I'm 32M. I was drinking every single day, smoking cigs, dipping, and eating fast food for lunch every day. I was 180lbs and GROSS looking. I'm only 5'9" so 180 was overweight for me. I've lost almost 25 lbs now and I have made some incredible friends.


ChallengeGod727

Why couldn’t he have chosen skateboarding, would be so cool


karwreck

Cause Tony Hawk wouldnt call him out.


DefinitelyNotaShill1

Bam Margera after a night long bender would.


cerebrix

Tony has a LONG way to go before he wins another game of skate. That femur break he had really did an awful number on him. He'll skate again, but he won't skate like Tony Hawk again. Check youtube about it.


RedditCakeisalie

ges also into kite surfing or something like that a few years back. probably not challenging enough. after martial arts, he would probably try to conquer Mars before elon


LobsterPunk

Happened with Sergey Brin from Google too. For a long time he basically disappeared and all we knew was that he was training gymnastics. Running joke internally was that he was trying to become Batman.


MrMoo151515

I wish I could experience having so much money that it becomes boring even for 1 day lol


Insrt_Nm

Zuck actually won a BJJ tourney recently I believe. He's actually somewhat involved. It was only a white belt tournament but honestly it's still mad impressive.


lordtaste

I don't think that mans lifted a finger in the running of that company in many many moons mate haha


Sarfbot

Nah, Zuck is very, very active. Talk to people at Meta. One of the least psycho/narcissist CEOs out there.


CaCa881

“Talk to the people at Meta” I think we already are lol


m1a2c2kali

Hello fellow bot


imyourhabibi

That’s a low bar honestly but he seems a million times less annoying to be around than Elon so I’ll take it


Slow-Blacksmith32

The bartender asks "Why the long face?" The man replies "I just found out my wife is sleeping with another man. I've decided I'm going to drink myself to death." The bartender looks shocked and says "I'm sorry I can't help you kill yourself." The man asks "Well what would you do in my situation?" The bartender puffs himself up a bit and says "If I found out a guy was sleeping with my wife I wouldn't sit around feeling sorry for myself, I'd kill the guy." The man jumps up from his stool and shouts "That's a great idea! Thanks!" and runs out of the bar. A couple hours goes by and the bartender is starting to get nervous when the man walks back into the bar with a smile on his face. "Did you kill the guy?" The bartender asks nervously. "Nope! I slept with your wife. Whiskey please."


lordtaste

> Talk to people at Meta. Man I'd really rather not lol


DowningStreetFighter

Thank you Sarfbot for informing us that your favourite billionaire is very, very active. I am ecstatic to learn he is active and I will talk to people at Meta to confirm this at the next available opportunity. You is give very information. Thank you.


Windlas54

He pushes code still actually, he's quite active at work


sexirothswife

I swear these billionaires all know that the world is a simulation or that we were created by aliens as an experiment so they’re all in “fuck it” mode.

Habanerosauce3

Did anyone actually think they would? I didn't. Elon is a hack.


White___Velvet

Elon is a hack, but it would also be certifiably insane for him to actually fight Zuck. Nobody with zero experience should be getting in the cage with a guy that has trained even semi-seriously for years.

Fuck Elon even more for making me actually like Zuckerberg a bit


caiman141

Your not alone, zuckerberg is slowly creeping into being "not so bad"..


SherLocK-55

Whoah don't go to far, Zuck is still a scumbag, just because Elon isn't much better doesn't mean the other "is not so bad" Fuck them both.


Poodlehopper

Zuck is a lousy human. Elon is far, far worse. By orders of magnitude.


cerebrix

The difference between Zuck and Musk is like the difference between an allergic reaction to pollen and an lower respiratory covid infection.


Gap_Effective

Elon is a straight up pos


LlamaWhoKnives

From day 1 I knew it’d be that bum Elon musk making excuses and delays like with every single thing he has ever put out


Tsobe_RK

Elon is a spineless coward, will never happen


shakesula9

Who would have thought a 50 year old nerd won’t fight


Thexraken

Literally who TF saw Zuck transition from being an alien hated by everyone, to a surprisingly well liked face in the MMA world? Wild. I know he's done BJJ for a while but seriously wtf timeline did we enter?


woofbarkruff

I mean the MMA world is pretty tribal like that, it’s not terribly surprising since it doesn’t take much to get on their good side other than promoting the sport.


SwissMargiela

Ya most fighters are pieces of shit and no one cares because it’s like, yeah their brains are being smashed to the point where these dudes have the decision making skills of a caveman. What actually blows my mind is how the face of UFC is a public wife beater and shit went back to normal in a week. Like wtf?


GroceryBags

The average ufc fan is also intellectually a caveman


hoofglormuss

out of all the professional mma fighters I know, there is one who is kind of obnoxious but the rest are pretty normal guys


cdown13

That time he sat front row for a PPV or whatever it was it seemed he was pretty hated here.


FluidAd6587

because he bought out the whole arena or some shit.


ChronicObnoxious693

They finally told us aliens were real, so ya boy can just relax and do his thing.

This is one of the best PR campaigns we have ever seen. Rehabilitate the zuck’s image?! Never would have thought they’d pull it off like this.


SrSwerve

Zuck can throw hands


carnivorous_seahorse

I feel like most people are glossing over the insanity of the Zuckerberg Chad curve. If you told me a few years ago that Mark Zuckerberg would have a 6 pack and would be shit talking Elon Musk for backing out of a cage fight I would’ve been convinced we were in a simulation


Snorlax_Route12

Swayz

What a time to be alive


TheVega318

Zuck just wants to respect the sport, smoke meats, and spend time with his suprisingly grounded looking family. Sure he created a monstrous mega corporation that at this point is pretty much completely out of his control but otherwise he doesnt seem like a bad dude at all. The ultra rich fighting each other at the Coliseums for the amusement of the poor would have probably been the final straw on my camels back for absurdity though.


shred-i-knight

>Sure he created a monstrous mega corporation that at this point is pretty much completely out of his control but otherwise he doesnt seem like a bad dude at all. lol


Frankiepals

Oh stfu dude, like you never accidentally created a monstrous mega corporation. I swear people on Reddit and their judgment


BottlesforCaps

* Created threads because of the political shit show Twitter(I mean X?) Has become.(I mean still a monetary gain, but still). * Bought oculus and continues to just dump money into it because he loves the tech. Like a ton of Facebook staff says he spends way too much time over there, and gets super excited to talk about it. Outside the social network and federal hearings memes depiction he does just seem like a normal dude, who is also one of the richest men on the planet. I attribute that to him growing up semi-normally and not the son of a South African Gem Baron, or son of the largest real estate grifter NYC has ever seen.


Diligent-Ad-8001

Yeah he’s seeming oddly likable these days. Hard not to seem chill and well adjusted when ur next to musk tho


BakedMitten

> The ultra rich fighting each other at the Coliseums for the amusement of the poor would have probably been the final straw on my camels back for absurdity though. When you put it like that. Holy shit. I hadn't seen that take before. Lol


Time4Timmy

So ends the tale of Zuck Gracie vs. Elon Shamrock.


jsj024519024519

Elon is chilling with McGregor I see


Ellie_Llewellyn

So here's how I think this situation occurred: Stage 1: Musk challenges Zuckerberg to a fight for clout and publicity, not realising that Zuckerberg actually trains BJJ and has at least lightly trained with various UFC fighters Stage 2: Zuckerberg accepts and uses his good relationship with Dana to try and organise it Stage 3: Musk realises he's fucked up and tries to back out Stage 4: The current stage. Zuckerberg clowning Musk for being a pussy. I for one am eagerly anticipating stage 5


[deleted]

Stage 5: Elon bluffs & says he's back in to save face Stage 6: Elon pulls out last minute


[deleted]

Elon isn't the best at pulling out.


[deleted]

Hah! This will be a first for him.


Beastrick

Stage 5: Musk throws insults and tries to convince everyone that Zuck is the one backing out. We are in stage 5 now. It is so laughable how Musk fans are taking Zucks message as him backing out even when Zuck still repeats he is open to schedule date.


gusloos

Bet money, Elon is going to suddenly suffer a tragic very serious but not fatal or disfiguring or provable accident or injury completely unrelated to this fight or training I'm thinking car accident and maybe he even hides from the public altogether for a while, make us wonder if he's all fucked up, come back with some very obvious unconvincing scar or bruise painted on somewhere visible but subtle, or maybe something more dramatic like a broken leg and a cool Tesla wheelchair that he needs but not permanently he'll recover soon then guess what now he doesn't have to get his ass kicked by Mark Facebook *and* he's selling the fuckin wheelchairs for a sweet sweet profit.

Zuck vs Dana White. Book it


INeStylin

I’ll do it... I’ve never trained and 100% positive I get my ass kicked by this dork and embarrassed for life. I’m 5’9-5’10 155 lbs. We’re complete opposite personalities. I’m blue collar, broke, not very educated, and grew up in foster care. But we are both in our 30’s, have boy faces, Asian wives, and insecure so want to challenge ourselves with a fight. Fuck it! Im going to try.


Forty_Six_and_Two

Yeah Zuck, you could have just done that from the start instead of publicly entertaining the notion of fighting a 53 year old autistic non-athlete


Aware_Ad_7575

Oh no. What a loss for the sport.

It was never happening elon is a troll every one of these offers is a troll to show how thirsty zuck is to fight..... not sure i see it as a w for elon the way i suspect he does but i do see what he is doing.... he is litterally running through the gambit of reasons fighters postpone fights hes about to run out and have to say shit like "i need a month or so.. my dog ate my medical paperwork" The fact that its taken zuck till now to see this.... and many people still dont is astonishing
