Elon Musk’s parents worried about his cage fight with Mark Zuckerberg.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has stated that the cage match between him and Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, will have place in Rome’s Colosseum landmark in Italy.
Elon Musk’s parents have voiced their opposition to the impending event.
The location of the cage match was revealed by Musk on Twitter.
In another tweet, he linked to the Life of Brian Colosseum fight YouTube video and said, “Need to work on my endurance.”
In an interview with The Sun newspaper, Musk’s father Errol Musk said the upcoming fight was not a particularly good look for his son.
He said, “The thing is, if this crazy fight goes ahead, if Elon beats this guy, Elon will be called a bully, being so much heavier and taller…While if he loses, the humiliation would be total…Elon loses if he wins and loses if he loses.”
Elon does have a slight advantage in terms of the differences in height and weight. Zuckerberg is only 5’7″ tall, while Musk is 6 feet 1 inch tall.
Just by glancing at the two of them, you can see that he is significantly heavier.
Additionally, Musk’s mother Maye appears to be worried that her 52-year-old son is preparing to confront Zuckerberg.
Maye made attempts to discourage her son from using violence in a series of tweets.
“Fight with words only. In armchairs. Four feet apart. The funniest person wins,” Lady Musk tweeted last week. In a different tweet, she claimed that the fight had been “canceled” at her behest. In still others, she playfully scolded rightwing podcaster Lex Fridman for encouraging the match.

“I did an impromptu training session with Elon Musk for a few hours yesterday,” tweeted Lex Fridman, a scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Fridman released two images taken during the session.
One seems to show Musk in side control as the two of them struggle to isolate Fridman’s right arm.
In the second, Musk looks to be performing a hip toss on the smaller Fridman.
I did an impromptu training session with @elonmusk for a few hours yesterday. I’m extremely impressed with his strength, power, and skill, on the feet and on the ground. It was epic. It’s really inspiring to see Elon and Mark doing martial arts, but I think the world is served… pic.twitter.com/cq00A9Xnmw
