On Sunday, Musk said in
a post on X that the “Zuck v Musk fight will be live-streamed on .”
He added: “All proceeds will go to charity for veterans.”
This all came as a surprise to Mark Zuckerberg. Behind the scenes, the billionaire’s teams had been negotiating for weeks to nail down details of the fight. Zuckerberg had proposed a date: August 26th, as he would
later share on Threads. But Musk begged off, saying he needed more time to train.
On Sunday Musk said that he is
lifting weights around the office because he doesn’t have time for more formal training. Later in the day, he further revealed that he is getting an MRI on Monday of his neck and upper back, and
may need unspecified surgery before the fight.
