There’s not yet a legal market on a fight between billionaire tech founders Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, but at least one offshore book says action is starting to heat up — in favor of the Tesla founder.

At least one offshore book made Zuckerberg a -500 favorite and Musk a +350 underdog at open on June 21, shortly after the two expressed interest in a cage fight.

But after roughly 94% of the money has come in on Musk at an underdog price, the line has changed drastically. As of Monday, Zuckerberg's price has fallen to -290 while Musk's odds have shortened to +230.

For reference, the implied odds indicate Zuckerberg's odds have fallen from about 83% to 74% while Musk's has risen from roughly 23% to 30% as a result of the lopsided market.

Every day, the possibility of a fight seems more real. The latest updates? Two tweets by Musk in the early morning hours on Sunday.

Am lifting weights throughout the day, preparing for the fight.

Don’t have time to work out, so I just bring them to work.

Zuckerberg responded on Threads saying "I'm ready today. I suggested Aug 26 when he first challenged, but he hasn't confirmed. Not holding my breath.

Musk is reportedly 6'1" and weighs about 190 pounds, while Zuck is reportedly 5'7" and weighs about 160. But Zuckerberg is 39 to Musk’s 52 and is trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

And the Facebook founder was seen in July training with UFC champions Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski.

The two have been battling outside of the octogon recently, seeing as Meta released Threads last month in an attempt to compete with a declining Twitter.

According to Forbes’ real time billionaires list, Musk is the richest person in the world with a $232.5 billion net worth. Zuckerberg is No. 7 with a net worth of $110.1 billion.
