UFC Boss Insists Meta CEO Zuckerberg 'Will Beat the S*** Out of You'

As of November 12, 2025, UFC president Dana White has made a surprising claim about Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. White insists that the 5ft 7in billionaire is not a "computer nerd" and could "beat the s*** out of you."

Zuckerberg, who is currently worth an estimated £164 billion, has undergone a significant transformation since his early portrayal as a socially awkward genius in the 2010 film "The Social Network." In recent years, the 41-year-old has been regularly training in MMA and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, earning himself a blue belt.

Zuckerberg's athletic prowess has not gone unnoticed by White, who has been impressed by the Meta CEO's skills and athleticism. "Zuckerberg will beat the living s*** out of you," White said on a recent podcast. "All these guys that talk stuff about him on the internet, he'll kick their a**."
