Elon Musk recently revealed his attempt to confront Mark Zuckerberg at his residence. The unexpected disclosure came during his recent appearance on JRE. Musk emphasized that the META CEO’s home is not far from Tesla’s California headquarters. Dana White had earlier believed that a public confrontation between the two CEOs could be a major ticket event.

Musk in the interview described how he navigated to Zuckerberg’s Palo Alto home, only to find it empty. Joe Rogan speculated that he might be in Hawaii at the time. Despite the lighthearted nature of Musk’s comment, the idea of two of the world’s richest individuals engaging in an MMA match grabbed attention in early 2023. However, it did not materialize. This is what Musk said to Rogan on JRE:

I tried going to his house actually did......Yeah, 'cause he lives in Palo Alto. .........Yeah, basically he's not far. He's, I think he's three miles away from the Tesla California headquarters. Wow, but I don't know, there's nobody there.

Musk also talked about MMA influencing traditional martial arts like Jiu-Jitsu. The conversation then shifted from the Musk-Zuckerberg hypothetical fight to the dynamics of UFC. Musk pointed out that MMA isn’t just about Jiu-Jitsu which is a martial art that Zuckerberg is an expert on.

It involves striking techniques, which significantly alters the dynamics of a fight if a fight between the CEOs happens. Musk further elaborated on how certain Jiu-Jitsu techniques become less effective when punches are allowed.

Joe Rogan and Elon Musk discuss elbow strikes in MMA

In the recent JRE episode, Joe Rogan, and Elon Musk discussed the limitations and regulations within the UFC. The controversial 12-6 elbow strike was debated by them. This specific elbow technique has been prohibited in UFC matches due to perceived risks. Interestingly, Jon Jones‘ only loss is a DQ loss due to a 12-6 elbow.

Rogan explained the ban’s origin to Musk after the latter cited it as a restriction for fighters. This is what Rogan said to Musk:

That's changing, they're getting ready to do 12-6 elbows finally. Finally, I've been saying that from the top of the roof forever. Okay, it's so nuts, it's so stup*d. You know what it came from? No, it came from Big John McCarthy, who was the original UFC referee, okay? And pioneer of the sport. He was bringing this to athletic commissions and they were allowing certain techniques, but one of them they wouldn't allow was the 12-6 elbow, cause they saw those late-night karate demonstrations where someone smashes bricks like that. They thought someone would die if they hit him with this.

The conversation also delved into the nuances of various strikes and their effectiveness in actual fighting. The consensus was that certain strikes can change the course of a match when executed with precision and force. From the conversation, it was evident that Musk had very good knowledge of Martial Arts even without formal training.
