Shirtless Mark Zuckerberg spars with UFC champion in middle of lake

Mark Zuckerberg UFC Merab Dvalishvili Instagram

Mark Zuckerberg sparred with UFC champion Merab Dvalishvili on board a floating barge in a lake, a video posted to Instagram on Sunday (9 August) shows.

The Facebook founder and Meta CEO was shirtless and barefoot as the pair exchanged kicks and punches.

"Merab made me take my shirt off because it looks more 'fighter,'" Zuckerberg told his wife, Priscilla Chan, who was canoeing nearby.

The session ended with the pair throwing each other off the floating platform into the water.

Zuckerberg is a known UFC fan and has previously trained with champions Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski on a speedboat.
