According to a report by the Italian ANSA agency, Elon Musk has made a statement regarding the proposed cage fight with a "Ancient Rome" theme in Italy, which was brought up in discussion with Zuckerberg.
In response to a post shared by Italian Minister of Culture Gennaro Sangiuliano on the X platform on August 11th, Musk thanked Sangiuliano for his "courtesy and desire to plan such a cultural entertainment event."
Musk used the phrase, "While introducing Ancient Roman history, we also wanted to raise funds for American veterans and children's hospitals in Italy. Zuckerberg declined the offer due to his lack of interest in this approach."
Furthermore, Musk stated, "Zuckerberg is only interested in fighting if the event is organized by UFC. I am ready to engage in any form of combat."
