TheChris Brown vs. Soulja Boyboxing match will not be held in Las Vegas as originally planned.TMZ reports that it will most likely go down in Dubai.
The change of plans are a result of Sin City's boxing regulations for amateur fights, which include mandatory drug tests.
Big Soulja and Breezy both allegedly smoke weed and don't want to risk the fight being called off due to a positive blood sample.
The fight will settle the artist's beef with each other and line their pockets with expected large profits from pay-per-view buys.
If either combatant fails to do well in the ring it won't be because they didn't have proper preparation going in. Mike Tyson has signed on to train Breezy, while Floyd Mayweather Jr. will get Soulja ready.
Floyd is also promoting the fight via his company, Mayweather Promotions.
Miguel Cotto and James Kirkland are preparing to face off on February 25 at The Ford Center at the Star in Frisco, Texas, in a boxing match that can be seen via HBO pay-per-view..

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A massive manhunt was underway Monday in central Florida as authorities searched for a man accused of shooting and killing an Orlando police officer.
The Orlando Police Department announced the death of Master Sgt. Debra Clayton on its official Twitter account Monday morning. A short time later, authorities said at a press conference that a second law enforcement officer was killed in a vehicle accident while searching for the suspect in Clayton's killing.
The shooting occurred near a Walmart store in northwest Orlando earlier Monday.

The suspect has been identified as Markeith Loyd, 41. Authorities said Loyd previously was a suspect in the murder of his pregnant ex-girlfriend last December.
Authorities were offering a $60,000 reward for any information leading to Loyd's arrest. Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings said deputies had been searching unsuccessfully for Loyd for several weeks and believe he was receiving help from someone.
"He should be considered armed and dangerous," said Police Chief John Mina said at a press conference. "He will be brought to justice."
Mina lauded Clayton, a 17-year veteran of the force as a "committed" officer and "a hero" who gave her life to the community she loves. The tweet said Clayton always had a smile and a high five for every child she came across.

"She made a point, even outside her working hours, do to things for youth and do things for the community," said Deputy Chief Orlando Rolon, who added he assumed she was wearing a bulletproof vest since that is agency policy.
She was married and had two children. She died Monday at 7:40 a.m., less than an hour after she was shot while on duty.

Police released a video of Clayton's body being taken out of the hospital to a waiting van in a flag-covered stretcher. A line of officers saluted as the stretcher was wheeled out.

Authorities said 17 area schools were placed in lockdown following the shooting.

Mina said officers believed they knew where Loyd was. Officers were deployed to an apartment complex in northwest Orlando. The apartment complex and shooting in northwest Orlando was nowhere near Orlando's tourism corridor in the southern part of the metro area.
"There will be a large law enforcement presence in that area until we can determine he is not there," Mina said.
Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer declared a day of mourning in the city.
Clayton either recognized Loyd or had been tipped off to his whereabouts when she approached him Monday morning, Mina said.
Loyd then fired multiple shots at Clayton, according to the police.
Sheriff's officials said Loyd was spotted by a deputy fleeing in the Orlando police officer's vehicle. The suspect pulled into a nearby apartment complex and then fired at a deputy, striking the deputy's SUV twice. The deputy wasn't harmed, the sheriff's office said.
Loyd then carjacked another vehicle, drove away and then abandoned the vehicle not far away, according to the sheriff's office.
The manhunt was being conducted where he abandoned the vehicle.
Gov. Rick Scott cancelled an appearance in Orlando because of the shooting but appeared with Orlando officials at the news conference.

Multi-talented actor/writer/comedian/rapper/singer Donald Glover a.k.a. Childish Gambino was a big winner at the 74th Golden Globe Awards Sunday, January 8.
The television show "Atlanta," which he co-wrote and executive-produced, won the award for Best TV Series Musical or Comedy.
Glover also walked away with the Best Actor in a TV Series Musical or Comedy trophy for his performance asEarnest "Earn" Marksin the show.
While accepting the Best TV Series award, Glover, shouted out the rap group Migos.
"I really wanna that the Migos. Not for being in the show, but for making 'Bad and Boujee.' Like, that's the best song ever," Glover said.
Backstage the "3005" hit maker was asked by a reporter why he included the trio in his acceptance speech.
"I think they're The Beatles of this generation, and they don't get a lot of respect ... I think outside of Atlanta," Glover responded. "Not that they don't get a lot of respect, but there's a generation ... sort of like the YouTube generation, that I kinda came up with. There's a generation of kids that are growing up on something that's completely separate from a whole group of people. And honestly that song's just fly. There's no better song to have sex to."
PARIS (AP) — French police arrested at least 16 people Monday in connection with the October theft of more than $10 million worth of jewelry from Kim Kardashian West, finding weapons and a large amount of cash during multiple raids.
Paris police officials said the arrests took place starting around 6 a.m. in different locations in the Paris region and the south of France. The suspects — aged from 23 to 72 — were already known for prior robberies and other crimes said, according to one of the officials. Multiple firearms, including an automatic pistol, and 140,000 euros ($147,500) in cash were found during the raids, the officials said.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not allowed to speak publicly about the continuing investigation.
The suspects can be held for up to 96 hours before police must either charge them or let them go.
Jean Veil, the French lawyer for Kardashian West, said the news of arrests is "a great satisfaction."
"These arrests are a nice surprise because we might be able to find the jewels," he told the French magazine L'Express Monday.
Veil said his client could be interviewed again by investigators and might have to face the suspects.
On Oct. 3, robbers forced their way into the private Paris residence where Kardashian West was staying, tied her up, held her at gunpoint and then locked her in a bathroom before making off with her jewelry. The reality TV star was in Paris attending fashion week shows.
Media reports said police tracked down the suspects through DNA evidence found at the residence. One official, also speaking on condition of anonymity, said many were already known for robbery and other crimes.
Earlier this month, the starlet broke her silence on the robbery in a teaser for the family's reality show, telling two of her sisters her thoughts at the time: "They're going to shoot me in the back. There's no way out."
Police said the thieves stole a jewelry box containing valuables worth 6 million euros ($6.7 million) as well as a ring worth 4 million euros ($4.5 million).
Paris police and prosecutor's office previously said five people directly took part in the robbery, including two who forced their way into the apartment.
Police analyzed footage from surveillance cameras to try to identify the assailants, who wore fake police emblems on their jackets.
At the time, a spokeswoman for Kardashian West said she was badly shaken but physically unharmed. The robbery raised new concerns about security in the French capital after a string of deadly extremist attacks.
Kardashian West has the habit of showing her jewels and whereabouts in her social media, including days before the robbery when she posted pictures of herself attending fashion week shows.
Paris has been a special place for Kardashian West and her husband, who spent the weekend there before marrying in Florence in May 2014.
