UFC’s Jack Jenkins is not a fan of the potential Mark Zuckerberg vs Elon Musk fight.
Over the weekend, the Aussie fighter earned his second UFC win via split decision at UFC Jacksonville against Jamall Emmers.

After the fight, Jenkins was asked about his thoughts on a Zuckerberg vs Musk fight and he didn’t hold back with his answer.
“F—, what a joke…Everybody wants to be fighters, you got Youtubers wanting to be fighters, ex-basketball players want to be fighters, everybody wants to be the fighters but we’re the ones putting the work in and actually earning our coin and doing it.”
Despite the criticisms, UFC president Dana White insists that Musk vs Zuckerberg is not a “gimmick fight.”

“This isn’t a gimmick fight,” “Gimmick is MMA guys going to Boxing and getting beat. We have seen it already and know how it ends. This is a fight between 2 of the most powerful/richest guys in the world. Who will win? Who has seen this before? NOBODY. It’s also a crossover fight that literally EVERY EVERYONE will watch.”
