Dana White will never say never on Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg, but it’s ‘probably not’ happening

UFC president Dana White has changed his tune on Elon Musk vs. Mark Zuckerberg.

White was willing to help the two most famous tech billionaires settle their grudge in a fight, but the fire seems to have been put out recently. Zuckerberg said he’s ready to move on, as he doesn’t think Musk is serious about fighting. White himself has now started to cast his doubt on the fight happening.

“I don’t know,” White said on “OutKick The Morning.” “I never say never, but probably not.”

A fight between the CEO of X, formerly Twitter, and the founder and CEO of Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta would have captured the world’s attention. The plan was to have the majority of the proceeds go to charity,, and that’s the part White liked the most.

“Listen, I like both guys,” White said. “One of the things that I try not to do is judge people – I don’t want to be judged by my politics. I’m a believer in what I believe in, and there’s certain things that I feel a certain way about, and I don’t judge people by theirs. I don’t know exactly where all those guys stand; I don’t get into that. How I judge people is how they are with me, and how we interact with each other.

“So, I like Mark a lot, and I like Elon. Let me tell you who would win in that fight would be whatever charities were picked to donate the money to. They would be the absolute winners, because I think that thing would do a billion dollars in revenue, and they wanted 90 percent of the money to go to charity. It would have been the biggest charity event ever held in history, especially for one night. It would have helped a lot of people.”
