YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg got into a heated exchange with a referee at his first-ever Brazilian jiujitsu tournament — then went on to surprise martial-arts fans by winning gold and silver medals.

Video footage of the weekend match in Redwood City, Calif. shows the 38-year-old Facebook billionaire attempting to pin his competitor to the ground — but ending up pinned to the mat himself.

About two minutes into the bout, the referee calls the match, believing Zuckerberg — who had spent most of the match on his back — had finally “tapped out” and handed it to his competitor, according to Yahoo News.

An obviously frustrated Zuckerberg — who rose from the mat with his robe open and chest exposed — then claimed to the ref that the call was an error, Yahoo reported.

The match was eventually re-cast as a 0-0 draw, which appears to please Zuckerberg in the video as he then hugs his opponent.
