Only a true "International Superstar" like Khan can have the Royalty in UAE interested in him fighting in Dubai.

What are you talking about they love their Filipino "migrant workers", but I am sure that Manny would be cool with the way his countrymen are treated there.

They don't even watch boxing, they just know Khant is ****** so they support him. Don't matter though cause Pac beats that ass, gets paid, and they put some money back into boxing.

Mayweather should fight Khan if it's in Dubai. Increase chances of making a billion in 36 minutes.

You must not know much about Internaltional boxing. Granted none have had Pac's success (not many from anywhere has) but there has been at least one elite boxer from the PI every decade since the 20's. Most of them never get out of south east Asia mainly to do with poverty, not talent.

Make It Happen!!!!!!! I want to see Khan do the Stanky Leg.
