UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones seems to be the latest fighter to have made acquaintance with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Since he started training in jiu-jitsu, Zuckerberg has been occasionally spotted training with high-profile fighters.
However, the tech billionaire's meet-up with Jones couldn't be further away from a training session. Instead, in pictures posted by 'Bones' to Instagram, the duo can be seen playing video games on the company's new Meta Quest VR headsets.
The pictures, however, have elicited strong responses from fans, with an overwhelming majority blasting the UFC legend for socializing with the tech mogul.

"I don't know why everyone is supporting this geek. He's doing nothing but plugging people into the machine, putting AI control over humans."
In a rather hostile comment, @karan.vasireddi said:
"Did Zuck donate to a charity for domestic violence or something? 🤔"

Jon Jones offers to train Mark Zuckerberg for potential Elon Musk clash
Although Jon Jones' recent meet-up with Mark Zuckerberg seems to be nothing more than a social call, there might be more to it. Rumors of a super fight between Zuckerberg and Tesla CEO Elon Musk started doing rounds on social media after the duo seemingly agreed to a cage fight during one of their online tirades.
Jon Jones has already picked his side for the potential super fight. In a recent tweet, the widely regarded MMA GOAT pledged his support for the Facebook founder:
"You already know I am Team Zuck…. Let me know if you need a training partner!"
