A leading UFC lightweight contender once called out Elon Musk in the Octagon. Heres what happened after!<\/p>\n
Beneil Dariush is not just one of the top Lightweight title contenders in UFC. He is also a family guy with a colorful imagination. And Dariush showed UFC fans exactly that after his UD win over Tony Ferguson at UFC 262.<\/p>\n
When asked by Joe Rogan about his win, Dariush first launched into an almost mock-sympathetic statement on Marxist ideologies. <\/p>\n
Then, on a completely different tangent and called out Elon Musk and asked him where his car was. He revealed that hed been waiting for half a year and needed the car to protect his daughter.<\/p>\n
Clearly, Dariush went a little left field with his post-fight interview comments and left many fans in the dark. But Dariush himself was unaware of a very startling fact that he found out at the post-fight presser.<\/p>\n
In the post-fight press conference held after UFC 262, a press attendee asked Dariush why he called out Elon Musk. Dariush explained,<\/p>\n
December, I ordered my car. Bro, I ordered the safest car they told me, Its the best car for my pregnant wife and Im still waiting.<\/p>\n
Elon bro, Dariush continued. Whats the deal here? You told me March. We are coming up in June. I want my car. Come on bud this is disrespect.<\/p>\n
After Dariush was done, another press attendee asked if he was aware that Musk was his boss.<\/p>\n
Dariush recoiled with a surprised Excuse me?<\/p>\n
The journalist explained that the billionaire was a new member of the board of Endeavor.<\/p>\n
However, Daruish expressed no regret saying <\/p>\n
Im sorry but I am not sorry Elon. Im sticking with what I said. He jokingly added, Its Mr. Musk now, Not Elon.<\/p>\n
Elon Musk did get onboard the Endeavour, an LA-based sports and entertainment conglomerate. However, after a year, he left the board. Endeavor was the only non-tech company Musk was part of.<\/p>\n
It owns the National Hockey League and the National Football League as well as the Ultimate Fighting Championship and the Miss Universe pageant.<\/p>\n
The company made an SEC filing on March 12 announcing Musks resignation and stating his tenure ended on June 30.<\/p>\n
