I think the question is: What will the board do to his brother (Haroon Khan) if he boxes on this unlicensed show

Don't think Haroon boxed
Out the British lads Dayle Gallagher beat Phil Townley 40-37
Stuart Maddox beat Jody Mikle over 4 and Taz Khans opponent pulled out last minute injured.

The Board do sanction shows abroad, Eubank Snr fighting abroad some years ago & Clinton Woods fought in Jersey a few years ago & these shows used British officials. As for Amir Khan being called up that just wont happen, it was mentioned a at a Board seminar years ago about unlicenced people being allowed to jump into the ring after his contests (namely members of The Khan Family) the person who put the question was told by none other than Robert Smith The General Secretary that they would allow this to go on as he put it Amir Khan was the future of British Boxing. Which goes to show if your face fits, one can do anything, which stinks of double standards.

Be interesting to know Robert Smith's views. If any double standards are being applied, then some clarification as to why this is happening would be useful.

It's the same people but BIBA is just for Britain and Ireland. And Pakistan just this once.

Yep! same old same old. There's a press release doing the/his rounds where he once again interviews & quotes himself - and mentions himself (endlessly).
I'm sure there's a word for this

Luca Di Cario was a chief official for the Pakistan show as well, maybe he is jumping ship or they are ending MBC, as they could not get with the EBU.

Amir Khan promotions are set to do Reguler events in england and pakistan in 2017
The shows at to be sanctioned by the BIBA (British and Irish Boxing authority)
He looks like he's not bothered about the British boxing board of control

And the Board will do fornicate all about it - just like with Haye and Chisora.
They Boatd come down on the ordinary pro but let the higher profile boxers do whatever they want - bunch of self serving, un-democratic, pompous twats that they are.

But what goes on in Pakistan, stays in Pakistan!
People boxing with Maltese licences should fight in Malta.
People in glass houses maybe should refrain from throwing stones dont you think ?
Didnt you box yourself on a show that was unsanctioned in Malta on a spanish license ?
Besides the guys in question are on BIBA licenses not maltese.
It was on a Venzuelan license which I got for a previous fight in Spain, a license valid in Spain and Malta as well as the rest of Europe but not the UK.
I got it rather than a Spanish license because it was cheaper and most importantly valid.
