Rival X has faced criticism on several occasions since Musk took over The Firm (then called Twitter) and made A Number of changes to The Platform , such as forcing users to log in to view posts. He also carried out mass firings at The Company .
Musk posted a message on the Social Media platform in June claiming he was " up for a cage fight" - a fight which typically involves few rules.

He later tweeted videos of walruses, perhaps suggesting his challenge to the Facebook founder may not have been entirely be serious.
Zuckerberg is a Martial Arts enthusiast and said on Sunday: " I love this sport and will continue competing with people who train no matter what happens here. "
