1321  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Figueroa vs Magsayo WBC Interim Featherweight Title (March 4) on: February 19, 2023, 01:12:38 PM
For fans of Mark Magsayo, i know that you are eager to watch him rebound on his recent loss to Vargas but for me this is not an easy fight for him.
Figueroa and Magsayo are a perfect match because they have a similar boxing record, so yes it's not going to be easy for the latter to win on this fight.

There style is contrasting though, style makes fight as they say, volume puncher in Brandon, but Mark loves to have his power tested someone chin and see if he can knock him out.

But certainly Magsayo will do his best to redeem himself. He gained his first title but lost it 6 months later to Vargas thus it's expected now that he will prove himself again to deserve another title. I'm not really his fan but as a kababayan I wish him a goodluck for this upcoming fight.

He needs to, remember that when he got the belt against Russell, the later is injured and others says that he wouldn't have won that belt if not for that injuries. And so when he fought Vargas to defend his belt the first time, he lost, and it doesn't sit well. So he has to make a statement win here and proved that his win against Russell and having that belt is no fluke and he is for real and deserved that belt. So if ever he wins, he need to get it back from Vargas.

Before the recent lunch of core it was speculated that its value would be half of that of Bitcoin which is potentially greater than Ethereum although cores value after lunch was very low compared to their speculation some mining sources say that its value will be greater than that of Ethereum of Which is not promising with the present market cap

I strongly believe that core was not much of a success because their mining duration was too long therefore causing excess supply of the coin during the mining period.

You mean that core is not much a success as compare to ETH now?

But looking at the price of ETH, it didn't even touch $2k, as others have speculators (or those influencers). So yeah, you shouldn't listen to then as obviously they have their own narrative from behind.

The thing is with ETH though is that it is still the second best coin, so with that it is still one of the best investment that you are going to make regardless of what you are going to hear.

Mac McClung took home the dunk contest trophy and rightfully so. He also had the dunk of the night with a 720 which was absolutely ridiculous. That was easily the best dunk since Aaron Gordon’s under the legs over the mascot dunk. This year’s contest was a big step up from last year’s. Hopefully next year we get to see Zion Williamson do something special…
It's hard to believe it can be done, you need to defy gravity to do it. Damn, McClung really made an explosive feat there and all viewers became so lively. It was the right move to end the contest and there's no doubt he won it. I scored 51 for that.  Grin It's just too much and he certainly revived the dunk contest again.

I think we have seen a lot of youtube of individuals performing that kind of feat. But it hasn't been done in the NBA, it's all on other leagues dunk contest. But McClung bring the street dunk and saw everyone was amazed.

Tomorrow, All-Star Team Lebron vs Team Giannis.
How I wish we could also witness something that explosive. We had been used to the boring All-Star game and lesser viewers are watching it because they know it will just be like an entertainment game without hardcore defense. Mostly, just offensive exhibitions in the first to third quarters of the game.
I hope to see some competitive spirit.

I still prefer the old West vs East format. Anyways, like last year, players are having fun and forget all the battles they have, their logo shooting, Giannis dunk, Curry turn away shot and others. For sure this will be the same atmosphere for this year.
1324  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: February 19, 2023, 09:49:18 AM
I hope things will work out for Donaire and he shrugs off his loss against Inoue, it's hard to make a comeback coming from that devastating loss, this is a surprise replacement for Moloney there are circumstances that late replacement pulls out a surprise, like what happened to Pacquiao against Ledwaba.
I know Donaire still has it, I still see the speed and the offense against Inoue it's just the wrong strategy that backfired I'm sure his camp will not let this happen again, I just want to see Donaire going into retirement with a title he deserves it for what he has brought to the boxing community.

One thing that causes losses to Donaire is he has this attitude of being too confident that he will have a strong advantage over his opponent which happens to be his weakness. He sometimes underestimates his opponents without considering their strengths in the ring. I think that's something that he should change. He must know his opponent's strengths first and learn how to counter them or else he will end up losing again. I hope his previous losses would serve him a lesson and be better this time.
It is a psychology thing. It boosts someone's confidence and nothing is wrong with that instead of hesitating or thinking negatively. He won't be fighting at that age if not for that mindset. Of course, he knows his opponent's strength as watching previous matches is a common thing to do for his team. You know, losing is quite normal. You can't always have things you wanted even if you are fully prepared. Anyway, I'm also rooting for Donaire here.

And just to be pump up of Nonito's fight, I watch the highlights of him against the trash talking Wilfredo Vasquez Jr when then fought for the super bantamweight belt of Vasquez that time and he is confident that he can beat the Filipino Flash because he says he is too powerful for Nonito. But he went down from Donaire's hook and Nonito winning the belt. So yes, majority of us here are going to root for Donaire to make another history. If I'm not mistaken, this will be his third overall reign as bantamweight champion.
1325  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can we experience $80k this year? on: February 18, 2023, 06:17:32 PM
Although it is very unlikely but with bitcoin, anything is possible, if you believe in bitcoin then you have every right to expect it. If bitcoin can do that miracle, we win, but if not, we have nothing to lose, as long as we don't sell our bitcoins, we have nothing to lose. I don't have high expectations but I wouldn't be surprised if bitcoin surprises.
Anything is always possible for Bitcoin this year, but to hope that much ($80K) is a huge thing for Bitcoin to achieve this year and I don't think Bitcoin will have enough in this year for a price of this That. Although I also wouldn't be surprised if Bitcoin was able to do so well, and after all it's something that everyone hopes for this year. But I just think more rationally and realistically about this, because expecting things that are too big must also be balanced with the right amount of time.
The price prediction of $ 80k is not high speculation because bitcoin has reached a high of more than $ 60k, but regarding predictions for when that will happen no one can be sure for this year, but I believe the highest recovery price in this year because until January there has been a recovery of only $ 10k in 2 months, so expect this time of year no price falls.

Yes, looking at the most recent ATH, the $80k price isn't too high to hit, but very unlikely this year if we look at bitcoin's history. But if bitcoin falls back is not necessarily a bad thing, I expect bitcoin to rise, but I also have a plan if bitcoin falls again. It's a chance to shop bitcoin cheaply again.

Yes, it's very unlikely this year, I mean hitting $80k is a new all time high for us, and it usually happen during bull runs. And with that, we are expecting it to happen right after the bitcoin halving.

So as much as $80k is very high, we should ought to know that it is not doable for this year.

Nevertheless, it's been a good 2 months for far, from lowest low of $15,500 to now $25k. Good enough for a recovery indeed.
1326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: February 18, 2023, 05:47:13 PM

Not sure though how you see Haney as a offensive boxer, no offense, but he plays more as a defensive fighter like Floyd. He is bigger if that is what you mean by massive, he has the length. If there will be a offensive boxer here in this rematch, it will be Loma, when his 'hi-tech' style and approach.


Sorry that was my bad, of course I meant defensive not offensive style. Obviously. I just got a bit mixed up who I meant lol. Once Haney finds an opening, his counter punching combos are really nice to watch. Not so much his signature jabs but that might be where defensive styles lack style. He really seems to like parrying from a higher guard stance with his jab.

But his attack combos? The transitions are really nice.

I just think his size will be the deciding factor when combined with his defense in his fight vs Loma..

When Devin size, yeah it could really be an advantage for him whoever he fight. Even if he fought a boxer with similar length, he still manages to win. At the same time, Loma also fought boxers that are taller and beat them.

So it's really a hard fight to pick as both as his strengths, however, their style can also negate any advantages of their opponents.

Adjustment, both can do that as well in the middle of the fight, both have high boxing IQ.
1327  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 18, 2023, 05:26:13 PM
My honest option for Westbrook currently is that he will be a good additional to the LA Clippers, no doubt about that as the team is already good given that PG and Kawhi are there and adding Westbrook will definitely give the roster an enhancement to be a more serious playoff contender. But if ever he won't be in Clippers, he's also good to go in Miami Heat where his presence and contribution is really needed. But for Wizards and Bulls, I doubt it. But just like you guys have said, it still depends on the highest bidder, IMO.

Looking at his performance on LA make me believe that Westbrook is not suitable on team that has a lot of star player. He will just destroy the dynamics of the team especially if the star player is already comfortable to each other. He belongs to OKC and LA with both star player before but still he didn’t achieved championship despite he has lot of star player teammates. I don’t know exactly what team he is needed right now but Clippers is already perfect right now if they can maintain a healthy Kawhi and PG until the finals.

Yes, I do agree, I think WB doesn't have any position at the Clippers lineup, they already gave up John Wall already, an old and aging style, so it doesn't make sense for them to get a same player.

Kawhi and PG looks solid already, and they are amongst the top team in the West and they made a complete turn this season since Kawhi started to play. And it might be the same story for WB that any teams that will acquire him moving forward. He has set a bad precedence in the Lakers and other teams doesn't want that toxic environment.

Almost all altcoins are green now,

Bitcoin at $24,696. Marketcap  $1.12T

The author of the article is early to call this as faltering, although I would agree that there is a correction after that quick $25k burst. Still looking good this weekend. I though it's going to be slow and long and deliberate as traders are going to take a break but it's not. They are taking every opportunity to buy cheap crypto as well as taking profits. So nothing is new here.

@Jating. Here is another news update from Asia and it is another one in Hong Kong hehehe. I am beginning to speculate that China will open up again, however, this time it might only be through Hong Kong then slowly open Shanghai.

Another country to observe where billions will come from is Dubai and maybe also the countries around the the middle east. Dubai has started welcoming Defi and Web3 projects to continue development in their jurisdiction.

And my speculation is true then, we have seen the price going as high as $24,650 in some exchanged, so it's good enough for me. We might hit weekend that might slow down the growth. But hopefully we can be just staying in this upper bound price so that next week $25k will be in the horizon.

It's going to be a big retest for us, because of we pass this test, then $30k is going to be easy, in my opinion.

So let's hope that the bulls are going to make a push for this month.

You are correct! The retest has presently started already. There is also a weakening of the pump. I have not looked at cryptocoin charts many times since the beginning of the bubble pop, however, the RSI and the price have shown a bearish divergence since the first week of February.

I speculate this retest might show the opposite where bitcoin might create a higher low and RSI will create a lower low. A bullish divergence hehehe.



And quick as we go to higher highs of $25k yesterday, the dump that follow forcing the bears to retreat and we retest $23,600 again. But still good though, after the retest, we are back to $24k and above. So it might take some time again to see $25k, as this is the biggest barrier to break and maintain.

So we will see if the divergence will create a lower low, but it seems not going to happen at least at the end of the week. $25k is too weak though, we need more momentum if we wanted to stay on that price or reach higher this February. Still very exciting month maybe another green candle again.
1330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Eimantas Stanionis vs Vergil Ortiz Jr - April 29 on: February 17, 2023, 04:33:50 PM
This will be a good fight, it's obvious majority will think Ortiz Jr will win via KO, but I think taking risk to bet Stanionis win via decision isn't a bad idea.

Both Stanionis and Ortiz Jr have been fought an undefeated boxer, Ortiz Jr completely win since he was knocking out Michael McKinson while Stanionis he win via split decision against Radzhab Butaev. But I think the judge who score favor in Butaev is really robbed, Stanionis should win via unanimous decision.

Ortiz Jr might go hard on this one against the champion and see who he is made of. But Stanionis is very durable, and the odds doesn't really reflect how how he is, specially a knockout artist like Ortiz Jr.

Why not? the Stanionis is a huge underdog and betting for him might be a good risk.

But I wouldn't be surprised if Stanionis will go down in this fight, he might survived but Ortiz Jr punching power will put a toll on Stanionis, specially if Vergil will mix it up, head and body power punches.
I have seen both Stanionis and Ortiz Jr performance but I must say my vote for this fight will be for Ortiz Jr as aside that he might be the crowd’s favorite, the brutality of his shots might put down and defeat his opponent  just like what he did to McKinson inside the ring. If Stanionis will not improve his performance, most likely he will be defeated by Ortiz Jr during the fight.

Ortiz is a scary fighter and that's why we heard his name against two of the divisions best, Spence and Crawford. But at least he has his way against Stanionis. If he win they he can call out either of the two boxers for a fight.

But Stanionis looks solid though, he might have a tough chin that Ortiz need to check how strong it is. Same with Stanionis, for sure he is looking to defend his belt by any means so this is really a solid fight for us.
1331  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: February 17, 2023, 04:20:09 PM
The news just came out about a championship fight in the bantamweight division. We were worried that we might not be able to see Donaire fight soon when his last fight was cancelled. However, this new championship match has been announced and we will get to see him fight soon. Although the specific date has not been released yet, it will be announced soon for sure
Not sure if Donaire can still keep up with young guns but I'm rooting for him to win this match between Santiago. I think Santiago is a decent fighter and now that he's in his prime compare to an ageing Donaire I think the chance for him to beat one of the greatest was likely 60/40.

I think he still can, the only roadblocks for him is Inoue. All other boxers in the bantamweight, I think he has a good chance to beat them like Santiago here. I thought that Donaire might sit for at least 6 months waiting for the Sor vs Gaballo result.

Anyways, if this is for the belt then good for Donaire as you guys said, he will be given the chance. This is the consequences of Moloney backing out and I would say it's much easier opponent for Donaire.
1332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 17, 2023, 04:06:53 PM
Bulls are becoming a joke again Sad I don't have enough power left in me to cheer for them Sad I simply had enough with Bulls and I don't think they will ever achieve at least 20% of what MJ team has achieve during all those golden years. The fans are also sleeping during their games because no one is there anymore for a real support , why ? Because the players don't support their fans either by giving all their best in order to get victories. I also hope , that after this NBA season ends , Bulls will make a massive reconstruction because LaVine simply doesn't want to play for Bulls man...

Oh well, there were hype when DeRozan teams up with Zach Lavine, and they really did a good team early on last year. But then they were eliminated in the first round. And the problem are more evident this season, they are not winning as they supposed to be and we even heard rumors that either superstar wanted out.

For sure, there could be massive reconstruction next season as the team are not that effective with Lavine as the leader. They are good at every position, it's that something is missing with the team's chemistry.
1333  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: List of Delisted Alts from KuCoin!!! on: February 16, 2023, 08:37:39 PM
Kucoin is not a big exchange like Binance so impacts from delisting news on Kucoin are less than from Binance. However, I would like to warn altcoin lovers that it is a kind of risk.

The impact will be on the hodlers of this coin, what will happen if there are no exchanges that list them? they might as well go and die?

In bear market, exchanges are more actively delist coins that brings risk to altcoin lovers. You can find altcoins with very lovely charts, prices fall to likely bottom areas and trading volumes become very low than previously. It looks like good signals of bottom and only wait for great recovery.

Unfortunately, it is not true in reality. If exchanges go ahead with delisting, there will be no recovery but will be another crash and you get loss.

Correct, bear market is a true test how this altcoin projects are going to survived. The first sign though that they might not last this bear market is them being delisting by some exchanges because of inactivity. So again this is going to be bad for their investors and as it's movement as going to be limited on small exchanges that are still listing them for trades.
1334  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: February 16, 2023, 08:18:37 PM
The division is getting hotter with the arrival of 2 division champion Shakur Stevenson who is also promoted by Bob Arum. I guess Shakur is getting his title shot this year unless Haney can insert a rematch clause and losses to Loma. If Haney will win, I really want him to fight Shakur but most likely he is moving up in weight. Haney was already struggling to make the weight in the rematch with Kambosos but he cannot say no to a past prime Loma who is a big name, a future HOFer and looked beatable in his last fight.

The lightweight division will get intense if ever Haney climbs the upper weight class and vacates his belt, we will see Tank Davis-Lomachenko-Ryan Garcia-Shakur Stevenson fighting for it as it's their long wanted chance and maybe even Kambosos Jr. will participate the said vacated belts too. But before all of that, I want to see Shakur getting tested by Haney first because these two camps already exchange some words before Haney was set to fight Loma.

I think Garcia and Davis might move up to 140 lbs too, their fight is on a catch weight of 136 lbs, Davis has fought Barrios at 140 lbs and Ryan has struggled keeping up at the weight limit of 135 lbs.

So most likely, it will be Shakur and Loma that will remain in this division. Haney could go up as well depending on the result of his fight with Loma. But most likely as I have said, he will definitely have to move up to welterweight. Loma if he become the champion, will probably remain in this division until he retires, he is small for 140 lbs and he is going to be eaten alive if he decided to move up.

Is that so? Thanks for sharing that mate, I know that Ryan Garcia is somehow struggling to keep his weight at 135, that is why their upcoming fight is a catchweight at 136 but what I didn't know was that Davis will also make his own climb maybe in the next following years because of the same issue. Now, if that will be indeed the case soon then Shakur Stevenson has almost all odds in his favor. But for Haney going to 147 from 136 is quite scary to think, but let's see if he can manage to keep up.

I think it's likely for Garcia to move up in 140 lbs, I mean the kid is tall and huge for 135 lbs and that even Davis accused of taking some illegal substance because it looks like Garcia is bulkier and it is correct that their fight, if push through this year is at a catchweight of 136 lbs. So if could be a sign that both are struggling to make the weight. Shakur is small but not as stocky as Davis and almost the same frame as Loma. Haney going up in 147 lbs is also possible as well but it might take years for him to go on welterweight. He is still young and his body could mature maybe in 2-3 years to become a full 147 lbs boxers.
1335  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 16, 2023, 01:42:05 PM
Lakers should start winning their games too as they are on the brink of being eliminated especially when the teams above them are the Trail Blazers, Jazz, and the Thunder. This kind of stats of AD is what they need 28 points, 10 rebounds, and only made 1 missed shot in the three-point lane. Put every play in the paint as much as he can.

They had a big win on LeBron's comeback, which is good for a start. Hopefully, they can build momentum from there. You're right, they really need to be more consistent now. A playoff spot is very important as it guarantees being part of the competition, whereas getting into the play-in is quite hard as they'll have to play a few games only to qualify.

LeBron was reported to have played with a foot injury. Hopefully, the rumors are not true because we need a healthy LeBron and of course, AD.

He has injury already, perhaps he doesn't want to miss games because of him chasing records. But now that he has surpassed Kareem, he has taken a days off but he is back again and leading the team.

I do agree that they have to start winning games before the All star break, because they will sink in the standings and might missed the chance for a playoff spot again. And it's going to be Lebron and AD going to anchor this Lakers team and then the new supporting cast.

Russell is providing the points that Westbrook was not able to provide. His consistency is very important, as LeBron cannot carry this team alone anymore. He came back to the Lakers with a mission, and this time he will be playing in the playoffs with a great chance, because LeBron and Davis are going to be a force to be reckoned with.

With Schroder also being a big factor, especially in the clutch, they already have a good second unit that could help boost the team's chances when LeBron and AD need to rest.

And that is why getting D'Angelo is a huge boost for the Lakers, he is still very young and lefty and has a good shooting arm in the arc which could really be a big help for the Lakers as all other teams are shooting better than them in three points.

Dennis Schroder as well, whether coming from the bench or being their starting point guard, has been a good help, and that second unit could be compare when they become a champion, in my opinion.

This is a really a good test for Tim because Harrison is very good and durable opponent who gave Charlo his only lost so far. Right, win-win situation for Harrison as well, if he wins then maybe he will be the mandatory for Charlo again.

This fight is a challenge for both fighters, as the winner will have the opportunity to fight Charlo. While Tim Tszyu is a slight favorite, I wouldn't be too convinced that he will win easily. The winner of this fight will surely be deserving of the opportunity to fight the champion.

Tim deserves a shot at Charlo, it's just that it has been cancelled for now. Yeah, some of us might think that Tim will win against Harrison, I think Tony is somewhat on a decline already and could be out of his prime in this fight in my opinion after his defeat on the hands on Charlo.

It would be very entertaining to watch a knockout in this fight. With Tony Harrison having 21 knockout wins from 29 fights, he is definitely not a boring fighter and has a high KO percentage.

Tim has a good chin although if my memory serves me right, during his last fight he went down from a flash punch. But he was able to recover and bounce back and win that fight. So he has been tested, and his chin is not yet really broken by anyone.

@Lucius. These types of developments in Asia was what I was trying to tell you. The Asian market is beginning to open and adopt the cryptospace again while everything is trading very slowly on low prices. In America, they have only begun to create stricter laws and control how much liquidity goes in the cryptospace. I reckon by the time America has opened up, it might be close to a new all time high where it might be the correct time for Asia to dump hehe.



DBS Group Holdings has unveiled its plan to expand its services in Hong Kong. The Straits Times reported Monday that the bank plans to apply for a license to offer crypto trading services to Hong Kong customers. Headquartered and listed in Singapore, DBS is the largest bank in Southeast Asia with a presence in 18 markets.

Thanks for this, yeah, I also believed that Asia is the one pushing the market in this bear market. I was just observing that when the market is open is Asia's time somewhat the price is going uptick.

And now that we have seen the price going to $24k again and the Asian market is about to open in the next 2 hours or at least traders and speculators are, I expect that price to continue to go up and maybe hit mid $24k again and hit highest high like $24,500++, the biggest price that we have seen since this sort of mini bull run.

This fight is very interesting. The fact that the match of Tim Tszyu with Charlo was called off must have made him unhappy.

Yes, that fight with Charlo is for all the belts in 154 lbs, so if ever Tim won, he will be the unified champion and would make history for him and his dad. But there are things that we didn't anticipated or we don't have control such as boxers being injured in training.

However, he is now able to use everything he learned in training against the person who beat Charlo. Mr. Tszyu might be able to beat Harrison more effectively than Charlo. On the other hand, if Harrison defeats Tszyu, he can restart his career and will compete in a third match with Charlo for all the alphabet of the division. After two consecutive defeats of Kambosos, this is also the ideal time for Tszyu to return the nation to the winning column.

This is a really a good test for Tim because Harrison is very good and durable opponent who gave Charlo his only lost so far. Right, win-win situation for Harrison as well, if he wins then maybe he will be the mandatory for Charlo again.

And this is the Celtics without Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.
No Marcus Smart as well.

This is also why I doubted betting against them. Seriously, Derrick White is getting better on the offensive end and playmaking for the team, that's the 3rd consecutive game with a double-double in points and assists. He just needs the minutes and it's showing up, this is how he played in the Spurs back then.
He already gained that message, he is one of the reasons why Celtics have improved as a team. Not only his offense but his defense as well, his basketball IQ as well is high and he doesn't look pressure on the court, he played with great concentration, so I would say, they really need him in the playoffs, and do things like he did in the past.

And Al Horford as well. Their main-line up wasn't there to face the Bucks and yet the latter almost got defeated by the Celtics 2nd squad. If it wasn't for Hauser's 3 point shot, the game has ended in favor of the Celtics because that shot tied the game and forced it into the OT.

That just shows how deep is the Celtics already when it comes to connection and chemistry, the team has been marinated enough to be a playoff ready kind of team. No wonder anymore that they are leading the whole league now, be it West or East, they are still on the top with 41 wins.

That shot of Hauser though, you don't expect some Hail Mary to be taken by him, but in the last couple of games, he had shown that he can be a good backup for the Celtics.

Yes, scary, how deep the Celtics are without 4 of their 5 starters and still give the Bucks a good fight and almost steal a win from them in the Fiserv and snap their winning streak.
