Comments Thread For: Groves: Saudi Arabia 'Not As Bad As You're Told Back Home'

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

George Groves has been pleasantly surprised since he arrived in Saudi Arabia earlier this week. His World Boxing Super Series super middleweight championship match against Callum Smith seemingly belongs in the United Kingdom. Groves is from London and Smith hails from Liverpool, thus this would've been a heavily hyped domestic showdown in the UK, where boxing is one of the most popular sports.

There are some countries that are pretty screwed up, and that's usually the only thing the news shows us. forgetting that the country also has places of beauty and good big hearted citizens who only want peace and success as much as anyone else. I say that meaning all countries in the world not just saudi arabia which does have some extreme laws unfortunately, but People who judge an entire region based on some is one of the biggest reasons for continued prejudice and phobias.

Official UK government stance on Saudi Arabia:

As long as they give us oil at a good price and keep buying their weapons from us, they can kill whoever they want with them, export Jihad around the world, and stone as many women to death for getting ****d as they like.

He says as he stares into a 10 year old cam cord about to get a short back and sides with a meat cleaver for having tattoos.

How did I miss this?? Women are finally allowed to drive. 2018 is a historic year for Saudi women. They still need permission to go out alone tho lol. This is a step in the right direction
