Ahead of the first UFC BJJ event, White spoke to TMZ and extended an open invitation to Zuck and other celebrities to compete in UFC BJJ.
Via TMZ
“[Mark] Zuckerberg has competed in tournaments. Mario Lopez competes in tournaments. Tom Hardy competes in tournaments. So, this is a spot anybody could come and compete here in jujitsu.”
“If Mark keeps training and competing and whatever, he could literally come here and fight in UFC BJJ, 100%. Tom Hardy, Mario Lopez, and many, many other actors that are really good jiu-jitsu guys that nobody knows about. That would be absolutely awesome!”
It is worth noting that Zuckerberg won gold at a BJJ tournament back in 2023, and would be a perfect fit for the new league.
