The Cuban boxer Yordenis Ugás spoke out about the escalating confrontation between President Donald Trump and businessman Elon Musk, labeling the dispute as "unreal" and expressing concern over the potential political and economic consequences.
In an extensive post on his Facebook account, Ugás harshly criticized the behavior of both billionaires, comparing them to "little kids saying ridiculous things to each other."
The most concerning thing, according to the boxer, is that "one is the president and the other was in the government until last week," referring to the influential role that Musk held in some decisions of the administration.
Although he acknowledged that Musk has "very serious reasons to be upset," Ugás was emphatic in stating that this does not justify the claims made by the entrepreneur on social media, such as personal insults directed at the president and insinuations about his alleged relationship with the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Ugás also dismissed Musk's claim that Trump won the election because of him. "He helped him immensely and even bought Twitter for freedom, but Trump did not win because of him," he emphasized.
The champion also questioned Musk's stance on social issues. He recalled that the entrepreneur advocated for the elimination of several social programs funded by the United States abroad, a decision that—according to American journalists cited by Ugás—could have indirectly contributed to the deaths of vulnerable people in other countries.
The boxer remarked that Musk's work always seemed very "political" to him. "Why, if there's so much money being wasted and in corruption, is there not even one damn arrest?" he questioned.
In his final reflection, the Cuban warned that both leaders will be harmed: "Elon will lose a lot of money. Trump will lose a lot of political capital and perhaps something more. Neither wins; both lose. Today's enemies were happy."
The post ended with a clear message: "God bless America."
