I think the whole Middle East is more into racing camels and sand surfing. There's not much opportunity for fighting when the fighters and travelling fans have to trek across hundreds of miles of featurless desert to get to the venue only to find the ring has been deluged under 15 feet of sand during a sandstorm.Originally Posted by Ambski
plus if your a crazed arab which is more entertaining, watching two guys fight with gloves according to strictly regulated rules, or watching a young woman stripped naked and stoned to death for having sex outside of marriage?
If they get there early and make to the front row they can even throw a few stones themselves. Much more fun.
