Elon Musk released a detailed outline of his much-hyped cage fight with Mark Zuckerberg on Friday—but he apparently did so without getting his rival’s sign-off.

According to Musk’s tweet, the fight is scheduled to take place near the ruins of Ancient Rome and will be livestreamed both on Meta and on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter). Rather than have the UFC organize the fight—as had been anticipated—Musk declared that it will be overseen by his and Zuckerberg’s foundations.

“I spoke to the [prime minister] of Italy and Minister of Culture. They have agreed on an epic location,” he wrote, adding that all proceeds would be donated to veterans. “Everything done will pay respect to the past and present of Italy.”
