Zolak & Bertrand: Who’s into Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg?
On Thursday’s edition of Zolak & Bertrand, the crew dove into the hype surrounding Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg’s upcoming MMA fight.
I wouldn’t pay for it…
Hardy: I don’t think it’s happening.
Beetle: That’s not actually a thing, right?
Hardy: It was supposed to be a thing, but I guess Elon (Musk) was not done with actually scheduling anything. So (Mark) Zuckerberg, who apparently is, quote unquote, serious about his mixed martial arts training and has been for years, told Elon when he wanted to get serious, too, then they would schedule something. It’s like, is anything serious about this, guys?
Beetle: Nobody would take that seriously outside of those two guys.
Hardy: No, But would you watch it?
Beetle: Yeah, probably. I mean, live? No. Would I want to see a highlight reel of it? Sure. Would I tune in because it was on at 8:00 on a Saturday night? No.
Hardy: If it was streamed for free? I’d look at it.
Beetle: Maybe. Yes.
Milliken: They confirmed that the fight is happening will definitely be in Italy. They want to do it at the Coliseum, but they have not gotten approval yet from the prime minister.
Beetle: What is the purpose of this?
Milliken: They’re going to donate it to veterans. That’s what the article says.
Beetle: Are they charging for this? Then go F yourself. No, we’re not paying for that. Get lost. Are you gonna do a pay per view of that nonsense?
Milliken: Think about what all those YouTubers like they’re doing all, you know, pay per view fights. Jake, Paul, Logan Paul. Now they actually have a little credibility, but that’s how they started. They’re playing off of that basically, it’s just celebrity fighting.
Beetle: Waste of time. I would only pay for it if it were a fight to the death. If you want to, you know, go to the Coliseum, then someone has to die and then I’ll watch. That’s it. Someone’s going to die tonight. We’re going to fight until someone’s dead.
T-Bone: One man walks out.
Beetle: Yeah, one man lives. All right, I’ll watch that. Now you’ve got me hooked. One of these billionaires is going to go down for good. All right. I would like to see that. One man will live here tonight.
T-Bone: Okay, let’s get it on.
Beetle: Let’s have a duel. Let’s bring back dueling.
