Earlier this morning, Musk said he was “lifting weights throughout the day, preparing for the fight.” He added his days are busy, so he trains at work. 

Am lifting weights throughout the day, preparing for the fight.

Don’t have time to work out, so I just bring them to work.

One Twitter user asked the billionaire: “Elon, what is the point of the fight? Is it to motivate you to work out?” 

He responded, “It’s a civilized form of war. Men love war.”

On Friday, Musk was curling a 45-pound dumbbell in a live-stream video on X to test the platform’s new feature. He said: “This is me curling a 45 so there you go.”

Musk first proposed a “cage match” fight with Zuckerberg, who is trained in jiujitsu, on June 20. 

Zuckerberg responded shortly after with, “Send me the location.” 

Musk then responded: “Vegas Octagon.”
