Serious Question. Whats Up With SA Rules That Might Impact People Attending Fight

[sicko]

She would be fine, she would have to cover up though


Can't tell people what they should or shouldn't do in their Country, they have their Laws and no they're not going to change it for this damn fight

Some sh^t I'm seeing on a travel site:

Women need to wear an abaya – The abaya is a local dress that covers your body (not your head).

Some public spaces are segregated by sex – You will figure it out by yourself but some restaurants or cafés are still composed of two areas: men and family section. Women or men that go with women need to sit in the family section. This kind of segregation is slowly disappearing, especially in Jeddah and Riyadh.

Depending on where you are, during prayer time, you can’t be inside shops or restaurants – To be honest, this rule has become more flexible but, outside of Riyadh and Jeddah, they kicked me out from shops during the prayers and I could not even stand in front but I had to walk away. A very weird rule.

Don’t drink alcohol – Drinking alcohol in Saudi Arabia is not legal, not even in 5-star hotels.

Seriously, stay away from drugs – Drugs may lead to death sentence, so don’t play with them.

No public shows of affection – Same as when you travel to Dubai or Qatar.

Don’t say you are an atheist – Even if you were, say you are a Christian or any major religion in your home country. Being an atheist can be considered as blasphemy and this is a very serious crime in Saudi. Moreover, you came to Saudi to meet people and make local friends, so saying you are an atheist won’t help you at all.

There won't be any jiggling Tecate girls, that's for sure. Maybe covered head to toe.

God is fake.

Whoever is running the computer simulation we are all living in deserves our respect & appreciation doe.

I will pray for you.

[Eff Pandas]

I will pray for you.

I'll tell the computer simulation guy to not delete you.

[Pigeons]

I'll tell the computer simulation guy to not delete you.

God willing.

I've heard they segregate their workplaces. I've heard men & women can't attend events together.

And yea I know every country has their rules & regulations. Hence this thread. I'm curious what they are & what are some potential problems to avoid for people that decide to attend this one. I mean to me this is the legit first fight that would be cool to attend thats in some backwoods type country where the rules of the country are antiquated.

I understand your message, I do think things would be a lot more relax because they have appease to a different audience, they know they have Americans and British fans coming over there. They would want to make a good impression.

My thing is the lady that is trying to make this about her already. This is an event that involves foreigners, so am sure everything would be covered in that terms, women can carry on doing their interviews without having to cover themselves in the heat.

The only thing I can say is the alcohol bit, there would be none 😂

What do they got between rounds to show the round. They just put it up on the big screen or something.

A couple of camels strutting their stuff

Lmfao

[Eff Pandas]

God willing.

Well idk if the computer simulation guy is as forgiving as your fictional god, but hopefully he'll be willing to listen to me.

They gonna chop off MJP's left boob if she laughs too hard in front of men or some sh^t.

Whats the f#cking rules in this backwards ass place that mfers from more updated & civilized countries might not be aware of.

I really want to be excited for this fight as it’s something new and different but then I ask the question - as a woman am I even allowed to cover this event for BTG due to the laws in Saudi Arabia? @EddieHearn #RuizJoshua2

Why would she not be allowed to act as a reporter/host/interviewer for this fight?

If she dresses appropriately to the standards of that country she can work her normal job.
