Beneil Dariush didn’t think Elon Musk callout would actually work and then he woke up to a Tesla

The post-fight call out is a staple of interviews with athletes after a big win but rather than name drop any potential opponents following his victory over Tony Ferguson at UFC 262, Beneil Dariush decided to use his allotted time to take aim at Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

According to Dariush, he had ordered a Tesla this past December, and nearly six months later, he was still waiting for the assembly line to roll one out to him so he used his very public platform on a pay-per-view broadcast to ask Musk about his long-awaited car.
