Elon Musk Asks For A Fight With Putin Over Ukraine Crisis

Elon Musk decided to troll Vladimir Putin(and probably everyone else) by asking for a fight on Monday morning.

In a Twitter post, the Tesla CEO challenged the Russian president to "Single combat" with Ukraine as the prize.

Musk sent another tweet a short time later to Putin's official English language Twitter page asking, "Do you agree to this fight?" As of Monday afternoon, Putin hasn't responded to Musk's challenge.

The idea of a one-to-one fight might sound appealing to fans of bad action films, but Musk may not be the best guy to pin the hopes of a free Ukraine on.

Although the 6-foot Musk towers over the 5-foot, 7-inch Putin, the Tesla CEO told podcaster Joe Rogan in 2020 that, while he lifts weights and uses a treadmill, he prefers not to exercise.
