Musk says proposed Zuckerberg cage fight to be held at ‘epic location’ in Italy

X owner in talks with government over historic site for event – though Colosseum and Rome ruled out

Elon Musk is in talks with Italy’s government about hosting his proposed cage fight with Mark Zuckerberg at a historic site in the country, but the Colosseum has been ruled out as a venue.

He and the chief executive of Meta first discussed the idea of a one-on-one scrap back in June after Zuckerberg’s launch of Threads, a rival microblogging site to Musk’s Twitter platform.
