Dana White reveals Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg \u201cdead serious\u201d about fight YouTube: Pat McAfee ShowDana White has revealed that he\u2019s been in touch with Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg over their proposed MMA fight and he says both are \u201cabsolutely dead serious\u201d about it. Over the last few days, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have been teasing the fact that might fight each other under MMA rules. It\u2019s even gotten to the point where the Facebook boss took inspiration from Khabib Nurmagomedov with the \u2018send me location\u2019 message to Elon on June 22 about making the \u2018cage match\u2019 a reality. Dana White is not exactly new to celebrity and big crossover fights. He helped promote the Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather boxing match and signed wrestling star CM Punk to the UFC. Now, it seems he\u2019s getting involved with the proposed Musk vs Zuckerberg fight, as he\u2019s spoken to both sides about it actually happening. And, he\u2019s conceived it could be the \u201cbiggest\u201d fight in the history of fights. Dana White reveals he\u2019s involved with Musk vs Zuckerberg fight talks \u201cI was talking to both Elon and Mark last night, both guys are absolutely dead serious about this,\u201d he told TMZ. \u201cThey both said yeah, we\u2019ll do it. They both want to do it!\u201d The UFC president revealed that Zuckerberg asked him initially if Musk was actually interested, so he\u2019s been acting as somewhat of a middleman and hypeman for them. Which is well within his remit, given his longtime role within the UFC. \u201cThis would be the biggest fight ever in the history of the world. Bigger than anything that\u2019s ever been done, it would break all pay-per-view records,\u201d he added. \u201cThese guys would raise hundreds of millions of dollars for charity and you don\u2019t have to be a fight fan to be interested in this fight.\u201d White added that \u201ceverybody would want to see it,\u201d but there doesn\u2019t appear to be anything set just yet in the way of date, location, or what MMA ruleset they\u2019d contest the fight under. It remains to be seen if it will actually happen or if it\u2019s just a classic bit of talk to create interest in something that goes nowhere or severely undersells the hype.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
