8:02 AM PT — 6/30 — The Ministry of Culture’s Office issued a statement saying, “There has been no formal contact from the ministry nor any written document, even if the news appears tasty it is unfounded.” Sources with direct knowledge confirm again … the Ministry first reached out to Mark Zuckerberg, then the request was forwarded to Dana White, and there was a follow-up and a call was set for next week. The Ministry added, “If Zuckerberg and Musk wanted to perform in the Colosseum they would have to make a non-violent challenge.” Our sources are scoffing at this, saying the Ministry reached out BECAUSE of the fight challenge.
