This idea comes on the back of the announcement that Musk and Zuckerberg have agreed to hold a cage fight. (see link) The suggestion I'm adding to this mad sepectacle is that the event should take place in outerspace, whilst they orbit the earth.
A special space cage would have be to constructed and
I'm thinking it should be filled with items of furniture so that they can bash each other with weightless fridges, sofas, tables and other domestic items.
If they don't like this idea, then I'm going to propose they fight it out inside one of Musk's Tesla cars.

See? Now this is a fun idea. |

More of this and less of that Donald Trump crap please. [+] |
|
| |
I don't know, Donald Trump and [xenzag] in a cage fight sounds fun to me. |
|
| |
I hoping they're both surrounded by wise and trusted advisors right now giving them the right advice - i.e. "Yes, Mr Zuckerberg/Musk, you should totally do this. The chicks really dig this kind of thing and everyone who works for you will have a new-found respect for you" |
|
| |
If this is true then Elon better do some training. Zuckerberg knows judo. |

[2 fries] shhhh! don't tell him! |

If we can get Branson and Bezos to join them, in their respective toy space ships, then there can be a tag team event. |

Aha! So he 'is' a halfbaker! |

I had never seen the Trudeau boxing match before. I must admit I have a modicum more respect for the man... but not enough to let him continue to turn this country into a dumpster-fire. |

What, you don't think he coulda learned anything from his real dad? Fidel was pretty scrappy back in the day. Lousy at baseball though, despite urban legend. |
|
| |
Any reason why we couldn't get the T man in on this? Not much of a fighter, he could begin as The Apprentice, ahem, and assuming he actually survived, move on to more lethal foes until, well... |
|
| |
I feel that any fight in zero-g would devolve into grappling & choking. Any attempt at a punch or kick would also send the attacker across the cage in a (probably) uncontrolled manner.
Also, I wouldn't lump Richard Branson in with the other billionaires. He seems a decent bloke. |
|
| |
He's just as big an arse as the rest of them, and Virgin are just as greedy. Get him up there in the orbiting cage along with the other three wankers. |

Zuck sucks and Musk rocks. But Zuck could totally kick his ass in the ring. Musk outweighs him and outreaches him and has dabbled in martial arts but unless the fight (not that it will happen) is delayed a year and Musk spends a huge amount of time on physical fitness Zuck can just drag on the fight until Musk is leaning on his knees and then KO him. There's a world of difference in a fight between fit and unfit. Even if that did happen it would just be less certainly Zuck's win. |
|
| |
In 0 g Musk would have more of a chance due to spending more time thinking about zero g and being smarter, and to a lesser extent fitness not being as important. |
|
| |
A cheaper version could be the vomit comet version, where they have 50-round matches where each match is 35 seconds. That's roughly around the time of a boxing match, stretched a bit for all the breaks and vomiting. |

Musk describes an unstoppable wrestling move he’s perfected called The Walrus. It seems to me that the only way to ensure a fair fight where he’s unable to take advantage of this devastating manoeuvre is to transfer the bout into the weightlessness of space. |
|
| |
I can describe an unstoppable wrestling move of my own called the poc. It works just as well in zero g or any number of g in fact. |
|
| |
Whether it actually is unstoppable or if I am making it up, no-one will ever know, because I will magnanimously refuse to demonstrate it on any poor victim for fear of injuring them or hurting their pride. |

Giving Musk homefield advantage. |
