Mark Zuckerberg has called off his proposed cage match with Elon Musk, just two months after accepting the challenge.

The Facebook co-founder accused Musk of not taking the challenge seriously and expressed his frustration.

The rivalry began on the Threads platform when Musk initially proposed the fight. Zuckerberg offered a real date for the bout and even UFC president Dana White suggested a charity competition.

However, Musk did not confirm a date and later claimed he needed surgery. He then suggested a practice round in Zuckerberg’s backyard.

Zuckerberg’s recent post indicated his frustration with Musk’s lack of commitment to the challenge.

Musk continues to taunt Zuckerberg about the fight on social media. Analysts believe the potential fight could still happen in the future.
