I would disagree. You mentioned, "whats the issue bob, can ******s not watch fights when they are hungry?"

During Ramadan, ******s observe fast from dawn to dusk which means you wake up an hr or two before dawn to prepare and eat breakfast. At sunset, you break your fast, offer your maghrib prayer, and have dinner. Possible 30-40 mins after that, you go to the mosque for Isha prayer and tara'weeh...which is a long congregational prayer that would take 2 hrs or more meaning you come back tired at 10.30-11.00 pm, have tea or drink some water and immediately go to sleep because you have the wake up 1-2 hrs before dawn the next day again. Some people will even spend the rest of the night in prayers and worship which would mean a lot of the population would take a rest during the afternoon after attending shortened office hrs.

Moreover, during the month of Ramadan, public eating and drinking are refrained from during the daytime, offices have reduced timings, and hotels and bars do not have any parties or events meaning there is not much going on and fewer tourists visit as well. There literally isn't much (or anything) else happening during the month but the entire city and people's schedule change and all life and routine revolve around fasting and worship.

So, it is not a normal daily routine with just "hungry" being the issue as you are trying to portray. Plus no ruler would like to be seen watching a boxing match rather than being shown on TV attending the tara'weeh prayer. Which is why I said you don't know much about Ramadan in an Islamic country.

That is actually fantastic info much appreciated & i know i would not be able to hack that at all, if i was guaranteed to be compensated in the next life with all the ******* and all that, well maybe i could

actually, what i said then is not too far off the mark, my statement is true, ******s cant really watch boxing (among lots of other things too) during the time when they are hungry, for all the reasons u outlined & more maybe

The short answer would be that Bob is right that the fight cannot happen during Ramadan in a Middle Eastern country.

How bout not criticizing anyone u rabid virtue signaller, why not just accept that there are places in the world that hold different views and values and stop trying to impose your g*y rainbows and butterflies onto them

I've got no problem with fights in the middle east. I think my point might have gone over your head.

Why? That’s where the money is.

My point is certain people were quick to criticise greedy promoters for staging fights in the middle East, not caring about the fans etc. They should keep that same energy no?

[Boxing 112]

Should we criticise these fighters for wanting to fight in the middle east or should we just save that for the promoters?

Why would we criticise any fighter or promoter going to the middle east? No issue and get paid more. Is it cause people want to talk about human rights and beheadings? As if the US aint got problems of their own, war crimes, death penalty themselves electric chair firing squad etc but its a big deal when its saudi

Which one is ******.....Fury or Usyk?

I think the human rights, the lack of atmosphere and the fact that it makes it more difficult for fans of the fighters to attend were people's main gripes. Tbh though I think it was mostly a case case of people disliking a certain person (promoter/fighter) so they will come up with any reason they can think of to criticise them.
