If the billionaire tech bosses’ social media posts are to be believed, we may soon find out. Musk, who bought Twitter in October, raised the idea in a response to Meta Platforms Inc.’s [plans](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-19/instagram-readies-twitter-competitor-for-summer-release "undefined") to roll out a competing service. > [](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1671364992665264131) Facebook founder Zuckerberg, the world’s tenth-richest person according to data compiled by Bloomberg, then posted on Instagram a screenshot of Musk’s comments with the caption: “Send Me Location.” --- ### More from TIME --- In later tweets, Musk, the world’s richest man, said “if this is for real, I will do it.” He proposed the Las Vegas UFC Octagon as a venue, and jokingly described his typical workout—throwing his children in the air—and his combat technique—lying on people in a maneuver he calls “The Walrus.” Zuckerberg also recently shared details of his fitness regime, including success in a jiu-jitsu tournament and completing the “Murph challenge”—running a mile, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats, and another mile, while wearing a 20-pound weighted vest — in 40 minutes. Meta declined to comment further. Twitter did not meaningfully respond to a request for comment. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/6289203/musk-zuckerberg-cage-fight/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/6289203/musk-zuckerberg-cage-fight/"},"headline":"Who Would Win in a Musk vs. Zuckerberg Cage Fight?
