The talks about the Elon Musk vs Mark Zuckerberg MMA/BJJ match have been reignited, with Musk saying that the match would be streamed on X (formerly Twitter):
Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on đť•Ź.
All proceeds will go to charity for veterans.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 6, 2023
But how well would Musk fare against Zuckerberg, who has been training Jiu-Jitsu for almost two years – and MMA as well?
Well, John Danaher thinks that it’d be an uphill battle for the SpaceX founder and CEO.
Danaher recently spoke with Lex Fridman and Georges St-Pierre, during which he shared his thoughts:
I’ve always found, by far and away, that the most important thing when two people get into a clash – skill level trumps everything else in terms of what’s going to determine the outcome.
That’s not to say other things aren’t relevant, but skill is more relevant.
He added:
From what I understand, he’s proposed opponent has almost two years of training. That’s a big advantage.
So it would be an uphill battle.
