It's Brett Molina here waiting for summer to start as I deliver your top stories in tech. Before we start, I must remind you I do not write for our Sports section because what you're about to read might throw you off: Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg seem to have agreed to a cage fight. Yes, the same Zuckerberg who owns Facebook versus Musk, the CEO of Tesla and owner of Twitter. The world's richest person in the world (Musk) squaring up against the 10th richest person (Zuckerberg), according to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. Fighting in a cage. It all started when Musk quipped on Twitter that Earth "can't wait to be exclusively under Zuck's thumb with no other options." After a Twitter user warned Zuckerberg had been taking jiu-jitsu, Musk said he is "up for a cage match if he is." Enter Zuckerberg, who posted a screenshot of the tweet in an Instagram story with the message "Send me location." The big question of course is are they really going to do this?
