They're insufferable enough cunts as it is, can you imagine what they'd be like after the ego massage of winning a cage fight?

One of them would be only slightly worse, but the loser would be better by a larger delta.

What "ego massage"? Zuckerberg would mop the floor with Musk and they both know that. One is a 39 and has actually won martial arts tournaments, the other one is 52 and looks like he would pant after walking to the ring.

Exactly. That cage match bullshit is the lowest of the low in entertainment.

Normally I'd agree but the prospect of two dudes I find morally repugnant trying to punch each other in the face has a certain appeal, since no matter how it goes at least one person I think deserves to get punched in the face is gonna get punched in the face.

All well and good, until you realize that an event like that would only propel their fame/infamy even further at our expense.

The best thing that could happen is everyone just stop caring about what they do. Let them make themselves obscure and irrelevant.
