Mr Kadyrov, a Kremlin ally, hit out at Elon Musk a day after the tech billionaire challenged Russian president Vladimir Putin to a one-on-one fight to stop the Ukraine war.
In response to Mr Musk's challenge, Ramzan Kadyrov advised him not to compare his strength to Putin's.
"Elon Musk, a word of advice. Don't measure your strength against that of Putin," he wrote in a Telegram post. "Vladimir Vladimirovich will look unsportsmanlike when he beats the hell out of you, a much weaker opponent," he said, using Vladimir Putin's middle name.
