TPB X thread

Actually think Zuck would take this one. His BJJ is decent.
I have no idea if Elon knows any martial arts but if he does my money is on him. One of my former concert security guys who is a close friend is now one of the big dawgs for Facebook Executive Personal Security so he knows him well. He was just down at my place 3 weeks ago and I asked him about Zuck's BJJ from the video that went viral, and he laughed. He was not impressed and made a comment that his 10 yr old step son could probably kick Zuck's ass. Some people are athletic and strong, while others aren't. Zuck ain't one of them.

Yeah, it definitely depends on what type of fight it would be. BJJ isn't always the best defense if you're in a street fight for example.

That said, if Zuck is somewhat competent, which I'm going to assume if he's won a BJJ tournament, then I'm giving him the advantage. Zuck is actually a fitness guy, Musk is not.

Yes, I don't think Musk has been inside a gym in his life. Zuck is an oddball but has a pretty intense fitness regime.

My prediction is Musk finds a way to back out of this one.

Yeah, I'm being pretty fucking objective here lol

Is it possible that Musk wins with a size advantage, sure, but I'm taking the guy with training and a cardio regimen every time.

I texted my boy to ask him who he thought would win. Musk is not a stranger to Martial Arts. He trained in a few disciplines early in life.


Found this too:

Musk trained in Kyokushin karate, taekwondo, judo, and “Brazilian jiu-jitsu briefly” when he was a boy, he said during an appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast last year. On one occasion, Musk even shared a photo of himself squaring off against a sumo wrestler.

Who'd he think wins?

Asked my boy who would win and he said put all of my money on Zuk. Said Zuk trains every day and currently is in very good shape. I guess his comments last month about Zuk not being much on the mat were taken out of context by me. But I might have asked the wrong people that question as both friends who were down here have been security guards for over 20 years for some of the biggest musicians and celebs. So they are seriously badasses and maybe it's that Zuk just isn't near their level. They've both trained in multiple disciplines plus even trained with John Jones and other big name MMA fighters. I wasn't worried about anyone starting shit with us that weekend.

Update: Said Zuk is training with 3 of the best BJJ instructors daily and taking it very seriously. Actually getting better. Said his punching is not bad. For him to compliment him on that surprises me cuz normally he is critical of people when it comes to fighting. Guess I misjudged Zuk. Gotta make sure I don't pick a fight with him

Zuck was on the Lex Friedman podcast and goes pretty in-depth on his BJJ and fitness regimen. I was legitimately surprised. Honestly worth a listen if you're interested in tech, fitness, censorship, etc.

Changed my perception of him quite a bit.
