Musk thanks Sangiuliano: duel with Zuckerberg seems to be skipped, at least in Italy


The duel between Musk and Zuckerberg in Italy seems to have blown up. The Tesla CEO thanked Minister Sangiuliano in a tweet today: Zuckerberg declined the offer.

The issue of the mixed martial arts duel-meet between Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and owner of X (formerly Twitter), and Mark Zuckerberg, owner of Meta, continues with another installment. A few days ago Musk had announced on X that, following a conversation with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Minister of Culture Gennaro Sangiuliano, an epic location for the duel had been agreed upon, and shortly afterwards Minister Sangiuliano had specified in an official note that the “fight” would not take place in Rome, leaving speculation about another possible location (the most popular Pompeii and the Arena of Verona) other than the Colosseum. Indeed, the location was to recall the splendor ofancient Rome.

Today in a tweet on X Elon Musk addressed Minister San giuliano directly, stating, “I want to thank Minister Sangiuliano for his kindness and willingness to organize an entertainment, cultural and charity event in Italy. We wanted to promote the history of Ancient Rome with expert support 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 only wants to fight if it is the UFC organizing the fight. I, however, am always ready to fight.”



A statement that seems to blow up the duel between the two, at least in Italy. If there are no further updates.
