No one but Elon Musk's staunchest supporters still believes he really wants smoke with Meta Platforms (META) -) CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
Zuckerberg has been training in jiu jitsu and other forms of hand-to-hand combat for at least a year and recently completed the Murph Challenge -- which includes a 1 mile run, 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats and another 1 mile run... in a 20 pound vest -- in under 40 minutes.
DON'T MISS: Elon Musk turns up the drama on Zuckerberg fight

Meanwhile, Musk seems to spend most of his free time memeing on Twitter, though he does admit that he thrives off of less than the doctor-recommended eight hours of sleep per night, and if you believe his tweets, he is more than ready to fight Musk.
So Musk has his whole Monday evening lined up.
For the Tesla FSD test drive in Palo Alto tonight, I will ask the car to drive to @finkd’s house.

Will also test latest X livestream video, so you can monitor our adventure in real-time!
If we get lucky and Zuck my 👅 actually answers the door, the fight is on!
Musk planned to use "the fight" to show off Tesla's (TSLA) -) full-self driving technology in an urban setting, while using X's -- formerly Twitter -- new livestream video platform, killing two advertising birds with one stone.
But Zuckerberg seems to be more serious about the public feud between the two men, and he declined to participate in Musk's commercial.
There was some hasty bag packing at the Zuckerberg residence today! Traveling my ass.

Zuckerberg has previously targeted an August 26 date for the fight and has suggested the two billionaire social media owners meet up in his backyard, suggesting how serious he is about the matchup.
Meanwhile, Musk has proposed holding the fight in the Roman Colosseum and livestreaming it on X, to show how unserious he is about the fight.
But don't tell that to Musk's cheerleading section on X. They're convinced Zuckerberg is the one running from the fight.
Zuck: I want to fight.

Elon: I am coming tonight at your place to fight.
