Elon Musk replied with a Tweet saying “Vegas Octagon”, referring to the cage-like structure of the eight-sided wrestling arena.
According to The Verge , the fight for Zuckerberg is not just a joke through virtual space, which means that the ball is now in Musk’s court.

“The story speaks for itself,” a Meta spokesperson says re: Zuck’s IG post saying “send me location”https://t.co/4g1IkqOl47
“The story speaks for itself,” Meta spokeswoman Iska Sarek told The Verge.
Musk, 51, has the upper hand over Zuckerberg in terms of physical build, and has spoken of having “real street fights” growing up in South Africa.
While Zuckerberg, 39, has already won jiu-jitsu tournaments and aspires to be a mixed martial arts fighter, Gates is more reserved in his hobbies. According to an American website specializing in technology news, if a confrontation between the two were to occur, it could potentially be one of the most entertaining matches ever.
