Elon Musk confirms long-awaited cage fight with Mark Zuckerberg IS happening, and all proceeds from the fight will go to charity.

Zuckerberg’s dedication to fitness and training has been evident, as he has been working hard to prepare for the potential showdown with Musk, who accepted the challenge back in June.

Notably, Zuckerberg has been training with well-known UFC champions such as Alexander Volkanovski and Israel Adesanya. He has been sharing pictures of his workouts with them and proudly announced his achievement of a blue belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

To gear up for the fight, Zuckerberg has been consuming a massive 4,000 calories per day to bulk up. However, no official date or venue for the cage match has been confirmed yet.

Now Elon Musk has confirmed the fight will go ahead. He says in a tweet, “Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on . All proceeds will go to charity for veterans.”

Recently, Zuckerberg surprised many when he shared a massive McDonald’s order on Threads.

His order included 20 chicken nuggets, a quarter pounder, large fries, a McFlurry, apple pie, and extra cheeseburgers. While some expressed concern about the high-calorie intake, Zuckerberg defended his choice, stating that he needed the calories to “offset all the activity” and wasn’t cutting weight like a professional fighter.

Elon Musk, on the other hand, hasn’t shown as much interest in the challenge and even tweeted that he “almost never” works out. This has left many people wondering whether the cage match will ever come to fruition or if it’s just a playful jest between the tech moguls.

While some are eagerly anticipating the potential face-off in the octagon, others question whether it’s just a joke or a serious endeavor. Nonetheless, with the rising popularity of influencer boxing matches, the idea of Zuckerberg and Musk squaring off has certainly captured the imagination of many. Only time will tell if this highly anticipated clash between the two tech giants will actually materialize.

Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.

Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens‑Frederik Nielsen has delivered a clear message amid renewed pressure from the U.S. — if forced to choose between the United States and Denmark, Greenland will pick Denmark, NATO, and the EU.

Nielsen made the declaration in Copenhagen alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen ahead of diplomatic talks with top U.S. officials.

The announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has again stoked controversy by suggesting Washington could pursue ownership or control of Greenland, citing strategic interests in the Arctic. European leaders and Greenlandic officials have pushed back strongly against these ideas, emphasising sovereignty and respect for international law.

This standoff places Greenland’s future in the spotlight — as Copenhagen and Nuuk reaffirm their ties, local sentiment remains overwhelmingly opposed to U.S. annexation and supportive of Greenland’s own path forward.
