It’s been two months since millionaires Elon Musk, owner of Twitter (now known as X), and Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg challenged each other over a potential cage fight. When the tycoons started their messages on social media, everything seemed to indicate that the game would take place in Las Vegas, the ideal city to set the stage for something as eccentric as a millionaire fight. Up until this Friday, Musk surprised everyone by announcing that he had agreed with the Italian government on the most epic and exclusive locations.
“The live broadcast can be seen on this platform [Twitter] and goal. “Everything that will be on camera will be ancient Rome, nothing modern at all,” the businessman said in a tweet on Friday. “I spoke to the Italian Prime Minister and the Minister of Culture. We agreed on an epic venue.”
The fight will be managed by mine and Zuck’s foundation (not UFC).
The live stream will take place on this platform and meta. Everything in the camera image will be ancient Rome, so nothing modern at all.
I spoke to the Italian Prime Minister and Minister of Culture. They agreed on an epic place.

With a second tweet With just one word — “Gladiatores” under the sword emoji — Musk seems to be saying that this is the Roman Colosseum, the city’s and the country’s most iconic monument. Italy’s prime minister, far-right Giorgia Meloni, has not confirmed the millionaire’s statements.
The confrontation between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg began when the Tesla owner first responded to a thread about the new app that Zuckerberg-owned Meta is preparing to share his mindset “with creators and public figures, who want a network run with sanity” to compete”. Musk had already joked about the new social network that Twitter is planning. According to some information Meta had contacted the Dalai Lama to promote its publication. Musk responded to the news with a “twitch my tongue,” which links the recent controversy surrounding the Dalai Lama to Zuckerberg’s last name, which is pronounced similar to “suck” in English.
