Before his anticipated fight with Twitter CEO Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, got a Blue Belt in jiu-jitsu, a martial arts technique.
On Instagram, the 39-year-old Zuckerberg applauded his fifth-degree black belt coach Dave Camarillo. He stated:
Congrats Dave Camarillo on your 5th-degree black belt. You’re a great coach and I’ve learned so much about fighting and life from training with you. Also honoured to be promoted to compete at blue belt for Guerilla Jiu-Jitsu San Jose team\
Camarillo was impressed with Zukerberg’s passion and attentiveness. He also stated that the Meta CEO was enthusiastic about jiu-jitsu. According to Camarillo:
[Zuckerberg] is amazing. He is an extremely hard worker, as everybody knows. But a lot of people have a business and they’re successful and they have that side of their life, and rarely do they dip into the physical side, especially with something like Jiu-Jitsu and MMA, and have the same amount of success or even go past Day 1 or Month 1. He’s not that kind of guy
