In response, Musk retorted on the X platform, calling Zuckerberg a “chicken.”
Posting Tuesday on the identical platform, Musk cited a “fight recap,” stating: “I joked on X about fighting Zuck. Zuck then said, ‘SEND ME LOCATION.’ Italy graciously offered a Colosseum, but Zuck declined. I suggested his home as a ‘safe space.’ Tragically, he was ahem ‘traveling.’ Is there anywhere he will fight?”
