UFC President Dana White is ‘dead-serious’ about the potential Elon Musk vs Mark Zuckerberg
Dana White, the UFC President, initially had reservations about the fight. According to him, those were just gimmick fights and not something that should be taken seriously.
But as the possibility of the fight happening increased, White took a u-turn, now saying that he is dead serious about the fight. He is ready to arrange the fight and would go to lengths if needed.
According to the reports from TMZ, White is currently in talks with both business tycoons. And according to him, both Zuckerberg and Musk are interested in making the fight happen. And judging by Dana’s decision to promote events such as the Slap League and the 2017 boxing bout between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather, there is possibility that the 33-year-old makes the bout happen indeed.
