Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Aug. 14 that a brewing cage match between him and Tesla CEO Elon Musk is unlikely to happen because the latter doesn’t appear to be taking it seriously.

The two tech moguls accepted a cage fight challenge in late June. Mr. Musk posted that he was “up for a cage fight,” and Mr. Zuckerberg quickly responded by requesting a location for the match.
