The world’s wealthiest man just challenged the world’s most powerful man to single combat. Elon Musk took to Twitter on Monday 14 March where he wrote that he wants to challenge Vladimir Putin – and the funny thing is, he appears to be quite serious. The Tesla and Space X founder also added that the stakes of the combat are in Ukraine.

The tweet has since blown up as millions of people across the world share their thoughts on a fight between Putin and Musk.

Elon Musk CHALLENGES Putin!

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has left his fans and followers highly entertained after challenging Russian President Vladimir Putin. Taking to Twitter earlier today, Musk used Cyrillic script to challenge Putin while also sharing an English translation of what he meant:

“I hereby challenge Vladimir Putin to single combat. Stakes are Ukraine,” he wrote while making sure to tag the official Twitter account for the Russian presidency.

In a follow-up tweet, the South African -born US-based billionaire wrote:

“Do you agree to this fight?”

Unfortunately for those waiting eagerly for a response from Putin, there was none given – well not yet anyway.

Many think Elon will win

Naturally, many flooded to the comment section where they shared their thoughts. Surprisingly, many agreed that Elon would walk away from the battle victoriously.

Here are some of their comments:

@jurijfedorov said:

“The fight would be over in 10 seconds. It would just depend on how much damage Elon would want to do how fast. Nothing else. Elon is also 19 years younger.”

@cz_binance said:

“brother, I wish for you to win of course, but the reality is … ???? I haven’t seen your kong fu videos.”

@sahil_vi said:

“This does not make any sense because you don’t have any authority to wager Ukraine. Zolensky could. You can’t. You can challenge Putin with Tesla being at stake. Arguably more valuable than Ukraine.”
