It was the story of summer 2023, it ends as a kind of summer farce. Always 2023. The Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fight between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg in Italy will not take place. This is confirmed by the owner of «X», the new name of Twitter, in a post in Italian in response to the Minister of Culture, Gennaro Sangiuliano. «We wanted to promote the history of Ancient Rome with the support of experts and at the same time raise money for American veterans and children’s hospitals in Italy. Zuckerberg declined the offer because he is not interested in this approach,” he explained. According to Musk, Zuckerberg’s will is only to «fight if the UFC organizes the fight. I’m always ready anyway.”
Where the truth behind the decline of this tech-epic between tycoons really lies, it will be difficult to establish. Certainly Elon Musk does not seem to come out well in terms of image. His story is very different from the version of events expressed by Zuckerberg a few days ago: “I think we can all agree on the fact that Elon Musk is not serious and that therefore it is time to go further with this matter”. All entrusted to him from social networks, namely Threads, the text app connected to Instagram – a sort of Twitter clone – from which the gauntlet started last June.
