Dubai is concider to be one of the best city in terms of urban compitiveness and service oriented culture.

These types of events can help others to discover the culture and the way of life of middle eastern people and feel the hospitaly of Dubaian towards others and strangers.
Dubai is a safe place, you don't risk any trouble when you walk late at night in the city, it can be a good and diffrent experience to visitors

Dubai, is a jewel of the Arabian, famous for splendid architecture, top quality spas and health retreats, and with plentiful places to visit. Dubai is a strategic crossroads between East and West, Russia and the Middle East. Dubai is one of the few parts of the country (UAE) that currently boasts dynamic economic growth.

Dubai attracts tourists from all over the world thanks to fine health resorts network, lengthy coastline of sandy beaches, and well developed Hotels and tourism infrastructure. During the winter time the population doubles.

I don?t think this will materialize at all..boxing is not just about the sport, it also needs to have a sense of place like what Vegas has..mayweather is all fame and money so with that your bet is as good as mine..

Where ever it is held the timing would need to fit US network peak timings. That would mean a fight in the UAE would have to be at about 8am in the morning. Can't realistically see it happening here.

Pacman is best boxer of all time and he will knock out this big mouthed Mayweather in a fight !
Pacman has shown that Filipinos are best in everything!

Well, Marcelo....I don't think that having the best pound for pound fighter in the world means that filipinos are the best at everything. Football? Cricket? Hockey? Baseball? Track and Field? ......Ballroom Dancing?I am not sure what you mean by everything.
Mayweather has always had a big mouth, so I hope I get the chance to see Pacquiao drop him in the first round.

This fight will never happen, Mayweather is making all kind of excuse and still saying his the best but can never prove it, All the people he fight takes a distance and says his the best, but with Pacquuiao it takes only a few rounds. Take the case of Hatton it takes him a lot of rounds, while Pacman takes only 2 rounds, Mayweather talk too much, but he is afraid of Pacman and with share of pot he wants to take it all, he is a guy who wants fame, but he is greedy.
