Mark Zuckerberg Says ‘Time To Move On' From Elon Musk Cage Fight Challenge

According to Bloomberg, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta Platforms Inc, said it's "time to move on" from speculation that there will be a cage fight match between him and Elon Musk.

"If Elon ever gets serious about a real date and official event, he knows how to reach me. Otherwise, time to move on," Zuckerberg posted in Meta's Threads. "I'm Good to focus on competing with people who take the sport seriously."

Public rivalry between Musk, 52, and Zuckerberg, 39, intensified after the initial success of Meta's Threads social media platform in July. Threads, which allows users to post shorts blurbs in a similar fashion to X, the Musk-owned platform formerly known as Twitter, reached 100 million users within a week of its launch, according to Bloomberg's report.

Musk, the world's richest person, talked up possibilities of a fight between him and Zuckerberg for weeks. Musk then posted last week that he will receive as MRI of his neck and upper back, which may require surgery.
