Mickey Rourke Wants To Fight Elon Musk In A Bare-Knuckle Boxing Match

A couple of days ago, SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk challenged actor Johnny Depp to a cage fight after testimony in Depp’s bizarre AF $50 million libel lawsuit against The Sun claimed Musk had a threesome with Depp’s then-wife Amber Heard, 34, and model Cara Delevingne, 27, in Depp’s Los Angeles penthouse.

Musk, 49, has inexplicably denied having a threesome with Heard and Delevingne and after receiving threatening text messages from Depp, 57, Musk told the New York Times he responded by saying, “If Johnny wants a cage fight, just let me know.”

When news of this challenge got back to all-of-the-sudden very talkative actor Mickey Rourke, 67, the Academy Award nominated actor fired off a message to Musk on Instagram, calling out the wealthy entrepreneur and issuing his own challenge to duke it out.

I just read that ELON MUSK has challenged Johnny Depp to a fight. I have the better idea if Elon Musk is in fighting mood he can fight someone his own size, i’d gladly love the opportunity to take you to school mr.tough guy Elon Musk. Bare fists,elbows and knees and i will only use one hand-my left. We can both put down $200k a piece, winner take all, no rules. So instead of picking on someone who weighs 130 lbs i am calling your ass out.

Warmest regards, Mickey “Marielito” Rourke.

Rourke is really jonesing for a fight. Just last week he called out Robert De Niro, calling the legendary actor a “punk ass” Mr. Tough Guy after hearing about something De Niro supposedly said about him. (Rourke apparently loves calling people Mr. Tough Guy.)

For the record, Rourke reportedly weighs around 170 pounds, Depp is also around 170 pounds, De Niro is around 175, and Elon Musk weighs around 205 pounds.

So the entreprenur has the advantage when it comes to size, but Rourke, and apparently Depp, have the edge when it comes to crazy.

And as we all know, you just don’t mess around with crazy.
