Georges St-Pierre says Elon Musk is “much stronger than the average man”
The biggest story in combat sports these days is the question of whether Twitter CEO Elon Musk and Meta (Facebook) found Mark Zuckerberg will actually throw down in a fight. The talk of such an insanely silly matchup is everywhere. Last night I attended a comedy performance by one the biggest stars in the industry, Bill Burr, and even he included the potential “Musk vs Zuck” bout in his set.
Former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre is just one of several fighters who has jumped on board in preparing the billionaires for a showdown. GSP has been providing training advice to Musk, and even provided comment to media ahead of this weekend’s UFC 290 pay-per-view event.
“It was a lot of fun. He’s very strong, physically very strong. Much stronger than the average man,” St-Pierre said. “Very tough. I didn’t know that in the beginning, he has a judo background. It was an amazing experience. He’s someone that I have admired for years because of what he has done, his accomplishments and for all the ideas that he stands for and for me it was a dream come true to meet him in person.”
