Elon Musk has challenged Vladimir Putin to single combat. We don't know who will win this single fight between Elon Musk and Vladimir Putin, but they both know how to fight. Elon Musk stated in Episode 1470 of the renowned Joe Rogan Experience podcast, hosted by UFC commentator Joe Rogan, that he trained in kyokushin karate, taekwondo, judo, and "briefly" Brazilian jiu-jitsu as a youngster. While Russian President Vladimir Putin held an honorary black belt, it was withdrawn by the World Taekwondo Federation after Putin invaded Ukraine.

Why does Elon want to fight the Kremlin leader in a single battle? We don't know for sure, but Musk may still despise Russia since when he tried to buy a rocket from them in 2001, the Russians made him appear like a clown.

Musk initially went rocket shopping in Paris, where they attempted to purchase rockets from the European space business Arianespace. However, Elon was not then the billionaire he is now, and the European rockets were out of his price range. However, during the meeting, they learned that the Russians wanted to offload some modified ICBMs, so Musk hopped on a jet and traveled east, his Mars mission ambitions blazing brightly within him.

Musk's rocket-buying crew landed in Russia for talks, which included a lot of vodka drinking and they were unable to reach an agreement. The Russians later visted Musk in the USA . "We can't proceed unless you give us $5,000 in cash on the spot," the Russians told Musk and Ressi when they paid them a visit in Los Angeles. It's not simple to come up with $5,000 on a Saturday, according to musk on Joe Rogan's podcast Episode 1470. However, Musk was able to borrow $5,000 from the opulent Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood, owing to his fast and astute business acumen.

The third and final meeting, which was meant to provide Elon with a rocket and get him closer to Mars, took place in Russia. Musk and Cantrell travelled there with the intention of purchasing three ICBMs for $21 million. To Musk's dismay, the Russians raised the stakes and said that each rocket will cost $21 million, and have ridiculed the future SpaceX founder.

Perhaps this still bothers Musk, and Putin's actions in Ukraine might be interpreted as a means for Elon Musk to kick some Russian butt and thus Elon Musk has challenged Vladimir Putin to single combat.
