Social media platforms shout 'appointment'

Zuckerberg: Give me the address! Musk: Sent

This war was first ignited by Musk.

On the 21st, Musk tweeted again, suggesting that the venue should be the Ultimate Fighting Championship in Las Vegas, and the arena should be the landmark octagonal cage. (Iron cage competition refers to a cruel competition in which two opponents engage in combat in an octagonal enclosure, using unrestricted fighting techniques until they are knocked down and admitted defeat. The "octagonal cage" here refers to the cage around the competition venue, as it has eight sides.)

In just a few words, a technology industry leader's offline "appointment" was reached.

Many netizens are curious about the authenticity of their 'date'. Regarding this, Musk tweeted, "If it's true, I will go

According to reports, Iska Saric, a spokesperson for Facebook's parent company Meta, also told the media that it has been confirmed that Zuckerberg's response is not a joke.

Why did two of the world's top billionaires and tech giants suddenly make an appointment?

This may be related to the competition between Meta and Twitter.

Earlier this week, Meta announced the release of a new product codenamed "Project 92". It is reported that this app will be named Threads, aiming to compete with similar features on Twitter.

This application allows users to follow users they have already followed on Instagram, and is seen by the market as a potential competitor to challenge Twitter. Zuckerberg stated that we need to create a "rational Twitter". This also led Musk, who acquired Twitter, to launch multiple "attacks" on Zuckerberg on Twitter.

Musk's mother: Cancel!

Musk: "Mom, stop, I want to compete with him

Although the melon eating crowd hoped to see the two of them truly compete in this' fight ', Musk's mother Maye did not support it.

At 7:31 pm Beijing time on June 22nd, she posted her first tweet stating that she said, "Don't joke around, just fight, don't use force, sit in chairs, 4 feet apart, whoever is the most interesting wins

At 5:47 am Beijing time on June 23rd, she tweeted, "Now that this game has been cancelled, everyone can relax.

Under this tweet, Musk replied, "Mom, stop, I want to compete with him. A netizen commented on Musk's tweet: "Listen to your mother." Musk responded, "She never lets me do interesting things.

On June 23rd at 6:05 Beijing time, she tweeted again, saying, "In fact, I canceled this game. I haven't told them yet. But I still have to say, the fight has been canceled, just in case..." Musk replied with a "laugh cry" emoji under this tweet.

At 6:21 Beijing time on June 23rd, Musk's mother replied to a netizen's statement that "he agrees with the Musk Zuckerberg game", "Don't encourage this game.

Bookmaker bet

Zuckerberg has an 83% chance of winning

In the face of this sudden "dating" of the rich, the sports Bookmaker quickly released their odds.

DraftKings, a well-known American sports Bookmaker, believes that Zuckerberg will win more. After all, Zuckerberg is only 39 years old this year, while Musk is 51 years old.

"Zuckerberg is 12 years younger than Musk. He participated in a high-intensity challenge, ran a mile, completed 100 pull ups, 200 Push-up and 300 squats, and then ran another mile. All of these were wearing a 9 kg weight vest." Johnny Avello, director of competition and sports operations of DraftKings, said in a statement.

Oddspidia, a sports gambling platform, calculates the odds of several Bookmaker and finds that Zuckerberg's chance of winning is 83%.

Bovada, another Bookmaker, believes that Musk is more likely to win. It offered a probability of -150 for Musk and+110 for Zuckerberg.
