The Twitter boss joked that he had a “great move” to show off to Mr Zuckerberg and noted that his workout regime consists of spending time with this children.
“I have this great move that I call “The Walrus”, where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing,” he tweeted.
He also added: “I almost never work out, except for picking up my kids & throwing them in the air.”
Mr Zuckerberg would appear to be in good shape for the challenge after winning his first jiu-jitsu competition recently.
A Meta spokesperson told the BBC that “the story speaks for itself”.
The exchange comes after rumours that Mr Zuckerberg is preparing to create a new app to rival Twitter, which is expected to be called Threads.
The social app, named Project 92, will reportedly feature a continuous scroll of text, buttons similar to Twitter’s like and retweet function, and a 500-character limit on posts. – PA
