ONE Championship’s Mikey Musumeci is backing ‘strong’ Mark Zuckerberg to beat Elon Musk after coaching Meta CEO
- ONE’s flyweight submission grappling champion thinks Zuckerberg will submit his Twitter counterpart if they fight
- Musumeci hoping to convince ‘super cool’ Zuckerberg to corner him the next time he competes in the United States
It’s the MMA (not so) super fight everyone is itching to see – billionaire tech giants Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk squaring off in the cage.
UFC president Dana White is keen to stage the fight, and said he already has a date in mind for an extravaganza he thinks could smash pay-per-view records and bring in US$1 billion.
But after recently training with Zuckerberg, ONE Championship flyweight submission grappling champ Mikey Musumeci has backed the Meta CEO and chairman to submit his rival if they eventually square off.
“Mark’s actually super cool,” Musumeci told the Post in Bangkok, where he will corner his sister Tammi for her match against Amanda Alequin on Saturday.
“I got a lot of hate for training with him but he’s awesome – I’m getting hate, everyone is talking s*** to me on his platforms. If you’re gonna talk s***, then don’t use his platforms.
“He’s super nice and cool with me. We trained for three or four hours and just hung out and had lunch and dinner. A super cool, good dude. He’s hardworking and strong.
“We’re around the same size and he’s very strong for his size. I see him doing super well in this Elon Musk fight, I think he can freaking sub him, I’m Team Mark.”
