Zuckerberg once had a private UFC event
In a surprising move, reports suggest that Mark Zuckerberg had purchased UFC 61 Vegas. With the approval of Dana White and the UFC team, Zuckerberg was given the green light to take over Apex and put on the show. While details about the acquisition remain unclear, it is clear that the tech mogul’s interest in MMA continues to grow.
Despite the excitement surrounding the event, the public and press were not given access to UFC 61 Vegas. Zuckerberg, along with his wife and a few close friends, were reportedly the only ones in attendance. The main event featured a matchup between Yan Xiaonan and Mackenzie Dern.
However, the lack of public access to the event left many fans disappointed. As Zuckerberg’s involvement in the MMA world continues to grow, it remains unclear what other surprises he has in store for the sport.
