Fighting champions are advising Musk for free, aiming to 'avenge' Zuckerberg

The cage fight between Tesla CEO Musk and Meta CEO Zuckerberg has a new plot: 8MMA fighters led by former MMA champion Chad Robichaux publicly stated that they are willing to provide training for Musk so that he can beat Zuckerberg.

These fighters are among the biggest names of the fighting world. Rob Haux, who now heads the Mighty Oaks Foundation, an American veterans' organization, said no one likes Zuckerberg because he has silenced people's speech and destroyed most businesses.

Robinchaux sees Musk as the key to his revenge against Zuckerberg. Brazilian jiu-jitsu champion Thomas Cronin also wants to see Musk win, claiming it would be a great victory for humanity.

Others in the fighting world who have publicly supported Musk are champions or well-known figures in fighting competitions, such as former UFC lightweight champion Quinton Jackson and Carlson Gracie Jr., son of Carlson Gracie, one of the founders of Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Compared with the combat experience of Zuckerberg, Musk is still in the stage of rookie. To this end, Musk said that he needed to have some surgery first, and then asked for a warm-up game with Zuckerberg in private.

That didn't sit well with Zuckerberg, who didn't think Musk was taking the cage-fighting match seriously.

In the eyes of professionals, the war of words between these 2 billionaires is not important, the key is how to arrange tactics. Musk made a self-deprecating comment on X in June about a move he described as a walrus, in which he lay on top of an opponent and remained motionless.

UFC fighter Jalin Turner thinks this strategy might work a little bit, given Musk's weight. Jackson, another UFC champion, said after musing that Musk's remarks had a good sense of humor. Gracie Jr., the Prince of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, warned Musk against overtraining and burnout.

However, Robichaux believes that Musk's move walrus has a little bit of the "wet blanket" technique in jiu-jitsu, which is designed to wear the enemy down and start making mistakes. It seems feasible that Musk could use his weight to wear down Zuckerberg.

Cronin, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor, took a different approach by studying videos of Zuckerberg's training sessions and said he had identified his weaknesses, as well as how Musk could exploit those weaknesses.

Others are more fashionable, advising Musk to consider revitalize stem cell therapy to ensure his body condition ready for a fight in addition to training and daily diet, given Musk is 13 years older than Zuckerberg.

Eric Scoffers, CEO of Bioexcellorator, said that as the UFC's exclusive stem cell therapy center, they have extensive experience treating UFC champions and will help Musk close the age gap between Zuckerberg.
