Global tech genius Mark Zuckerberg's hopes of a future career in MMA have been dashed after suffering a horror injury during a sparring session.<\/p>\n

The man who owns Meta \u2013 which owns Facebook, Instagram, Threads and WhatsApp \u2013 tore his Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) while training for a competitive MMA fight set to take place early next year. The injury Zuckerberg has suffered takes anywhere from six to 12 months to repair, which has now seen his fight delayed indefinitely.<\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram to post a photo of himself in a hospital bed with his leg heavily strapped up and being held up by a hospital gadget, he confirmed that he was looking forward to recovering. He wrote: \u201cTore my ACL sparring and just got out of surgery to replace it.<\/p>\n

\u201cGrateful for the doctors and team taking care of me. I was training for a competitive MMA fight early next year, but now that's delayed a bit. Still looking forward to doing it after I recover \u2013 thanks to everyone for the love and support.\u201d<\/p>\n

He posted the comments with four photos in total, including one showing his wife Priscilla Chan wiping his forehead while Zuckerberg lies in bed looking in pain. The post was liked by more than 600k people in less than 24 hours, and was swarmed with comments offering \u201clove and support\u201d \u2013 as well as thousands of spam comments about a \u201cfree Palestine\u201d.<\/p>\n
