Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg: Tech moguls receive an offer to fight at a 2000-year-old historic site

The rumored Elon Musk-Mark Zuckerberg fight will undoubtedly be one of the most epoch-making events ever.

Although the matchup has not yet been confirmed, Italy's government appears to be interested in hosting the potentially historic fight at a location with a long-standing reputation for being the sacred grounds of warriors.

According to a recent report by TMZ, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have been sent an offer by the Italian Ministry of Culture to hold their potential bout at the historic Roman Colosseum in Rome, Italy.

The historical structure, commonly referred to as the 'Flavian Amphitheatre,' was constructed almost 2000 years ago for the purpose of hosting grand gladiator battles.

According to the report, an Italian government official contacted the Meta Platforms CEO regarding the offer, who, in turn, passed on the message to Dana White. The UFC president's staff later reportedly got in touch with Italian officials.
