One of those was about the Meta CEO. While Zuckerberg might be known for his work on Facebook and other platforms, he is also adept at MMA.

Zuckerberg has extensive training in jiu-jitsu and has won several competitions in the past. White also backed this up, claiming that the Meta CEO would easily beat up a lot of people, especially those who think he is “some computer nerd.”

“People talk sh** about Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg’s actually a great athlete. He trains in MMA, he surfs, he does all this sh**. Zuckerberg will beat the sh** out of you. Everybody thinks he is some computer nerd. Mark Zuckerberg will beat the living sh** out of you. He would kick your a**.”

A few years back, there were rumors of Zuckerberg facing off against another tech giant, Elon Musk. While that fight never came to fruition, White shared his thoughts about it:

“Elon is much older and weighs more. He grew up doing judo, so he’s a judo guy. So that whole thing, that was fun too, a fun moment in my career.”

White compared the promotion work for this fight to Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather and called both immense fun.

Mark Zuckerberg’s gift to Alex Pereira ahead of UFC 320

Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk have attended several UFC events. However, it is Zuckerberg who has often gone backstage to meet the fighters.

One such meeting took place at UFC 320. The Meta CEO met Alex Pereira and handed the Brazilian a pair of Oakley Meta Vanguard Performance AI glasses.

This was handed to ‘Poatan’ before his title fight against Magomed Ankalaev. Pereira put them on immediately, and Zuckerberg was backing the Brazilian ahead of the huge fight.

Pereira put on an impressive show in the main event of UFC 320. He beat Ankalaev in the first round and reclaimed the UFC light heavyweight title.
