Elon Musk is now in training to fight Vladimir Putin. The stakes are if Musk wins he gets Russia. If Putin wins he get Tesla.

We are making this assumption based upon this story by Newsmax that we did not actually read.

Newsmax is a beacon of light in journalism, so we are sure it is all true. We also believe Putin, a soviet-trained KGB agent, and judo specialist has nothing on Musk. It will just take one Elon slap to take Putin out.

We also believe this is the first step towards settling world conflicts with one on one combat. Most likely by 2030 we will settle feuds using giant robots like in the classic movie Robot Jox.

The movie Robot Jox is set in the distant future where mankind has forsaken global wars for battles of single combat. The world has been divided into two opposing super powers, with each side represented by trained champions. Their weapons are huge robotic machines, capable of battle on land, sea and in the air.

Given the direction of the world this all makes sense.
