Who would Mauritius need protection from?

Money will probably be the only thing to convince them.

Protection is not just about military matters - it's about relationships. Mauritius will likely want to push other stuff at the UN level, bid for money from international bodies, etc etc... US help in those matters will be valuable.

Chinese fishing fleets on the commercial side.

I'm not sure China would mind having a place to station assets either.
