Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Saudi Arabia is an Amazing Country To Fight In

[sayf]

Yes I can. Without jumping too deep down the rabbit hole I would point towards limited civil liberties, gender inequality, limited legal due process as well overall incredibly substandard treatment of the migrant workforce.

If you want my resources to the above mentioned, more in-depth explanation or wish to debate my statement, hit me up on a message and I'd be more than willing to discuss further.

You could actuality apply those to almost any country, even the USA on all counts in some way or another.

To be honest, all this politics BS is boring. I just want to see the fight. Don't care where, don't care how much, just put the fight on and I'll watch, and so will everyone who has political issues. Everyone just likes to have a dig, USA vs UK vs EU vs Eastern block vs Cuba, vs....

Yeah the overreaction is really, some Americans are really soft.

[markther]

Lol Im sure you'd dance in a bellydancer outfit for the sheikhs for 50Gs, much less fight for millions of bucks like AJ and them

No, but I think your mom and your wife would be a better ********** in the US than anywhere else. And everyone on this post knows your in a Starbucks using a computer right now, because your broke ass can’t afford a bag of chips...LMAO!!!!!!!!!

He doesn't have Jesus tattooed all over.

Actually I'd be in more trouble in SA for not believing in a god than Andy would be with the wrong God on his body.

They sentence mfers to death for atheism in SA.

Certainly to some extent, all societies can strive to be better. Some more so than others.

I agree 100% that the political and sociological chatter is boring on a boxing forum so I will get back to talking boxing.

Khan has found his niche in Saudi as a very well paid nobody, fighting nobodies. If he gets away with it then good for him but it's only the Saudi's that don't realise they are watching a guy who they think is the WBC welterweight champion when in fact they are watching a guy who was taken to bits and quit against a real welterweight champion the fight before last and a guy who has NEVER fought a top welterweight contender......fools and money......!

Can you imagine Andy winning by KO, getting a face full of mike and hollering. Thank you Jesus! I've been run out of town before. It's like they relay on you, as you run past, more of them join in. The dogs and chickens get in it.

Saudi Arabia is garbage and I would never go there especially looking like Andy. I can get why he doesn't want to accept 9 million to fight there...

Those are rivalries and maybe some genuine dislike... but a lot of people actually abhor Saudi Arabia and places like it. They're extremely backwards and behind the times of being normal decent human beings its sickening. So it's an unfair comparison.

Well I'm sure the Saudis treated Khan well, since he's a ****** and Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are geopolitically aligned. Khan is pretty much the only famous Pakistani boxer, so no matter how much he sucks, there really isn't much choice lol. Still questioning Ruiz' and his team's sanity for agreeing to fight in that Wahhabi hellhole.

The same reason people choose to fight in the land of the KKK, annihilators of Native Americans, and the perpetrators of wars all over the world - Money.
We go to war with any country that doesn’t tow the line and if we don’t, then we impose economic sanctions on them and let millions of people die.

I don’t recall Saudi Arabia trying to colonize anyone. It sure is a ****ty country but ..,
