Mark Zuckerberg's journey in MMA
Prior to this achievement, Zuckerberg garnered attention earlier this year when he won two medals in a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament held at a Silicon Valley high school. Last September, it was reported that he had taken up mixed martial arts (MMA) training, with his trainer describing him as a "silent killer" in the ring.
Adding to the buzz surrounding Zuckerberg's martial arts journey, Tesla CEO Elon Musk challenged him to a "cage match." Zuckerberg responded by saying, "Send me location," indicating his acceptance of the challenge. However, it remains uncertain whether the fight will materialize.
