Just a quick question though,

Did you guys remember the time when Gervonta Davis had a live video call with Ryan Garcia where they both agreed to risk all their purse on the line? Because after Ryan Garcia agreed with the deal, Davis quickly called his manager/adviser, Al Haymon, on the other phone to prepare for the contract where the winner takes it all as both boxers already had a verbal agreement where the public are also watching.

Now, did that specific deal pushed through? or not?

It will be a tight fight for sure and I'm not ruling out the chances of Vincent Astrolabio for upsetting the favorite which is Jason Moloney. I know the Filipino boxer will prove his existence in the industry and that he's not just a mere stepping stone for someone who liked to have an easy way towards the belt, like Moloney for stepping down with his supposed WBC with Donaire. We never know, we might see another upsetting bout for the favorite.

The Lakers don't have much of a choice here, even the bench needed to step up their game so that they can keep up with the Warriors offensive tactics. Hopefully Darvin Ham will not do the same mistakes of Frank Vogel where they had the size advantage yet they prefer to adopt a small ball to keep up with the Warriors, as expected, that didn't work. Anyway, they learned a thing or two about that mistake.

Regarding on the games later, Boston Celtics is a heavy favorite because Joel Embiid of the 76ers remains doubtful if he can play with a sprain on his knee. I'll try to bet on that live but for now, here's mine.

Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets -4.5 .. Good luck!

What happened recently was not a recovery, it was just a short and slight rally that made some investors and self-proclaimed experts say that the raging bull is already coming and at last, the long drought of bear market will end. I mean, why is everybody so impatient? Thinking about the upcoming bull run will certainly not help the situation because it will just make our situation worse instead of seeing this as an advantage to accumulate more coins towards our portfolio while it's still selling for a discounted price.

To be honest, I didn't did my math to know how confident am I in the middle of crisis. I'm just taking it slow while waiting patiently because even if I wanted the bull season to come and start, I can't really do it as there's a correct time and phase for that. Let's just think positive and be more cautious to our acquisition so that we won't be having any regrets soon.

No doubt! Especially Kevon Looney who hauled many rebounds for the team, even if it's an offensive ones. He may not contribute that much in-terms of points but his role is effective enough to make somebody struggle if they will force and drive through the paint. Another talent unlocked by coach Steve Kerr.

So, we now have Lakers vs Warriors in the West Semis. Man! This is like an early present to us fans because after all these years, they meet again and will be having another tough moments together. The Warriors may have an upper hand in this series but I can't really say that the Lakers will not survive this because their roster can also keep-up with what the Warriors can do. This should be fun!

I believe Singapore as well is having some thoughts of being a hub in Asia and if I'm not mistaken, they also wanted to be a legal tender just like El Salvador did but as of now, they are still taking their time to observe and study further about it because even if we say that El Salvador may have some improvements since they became a legal tender, we all know that it was not an easy step especially that they were the first ones to do it without any experience.

Again, those questions will likely be answered after the fight. It's still a mystery for us now how will Canelo perform in this bout because he just got out from the surgery where he repaired his wrist that he has been carrying for two fights, hence why he did a cherry picked fight in-order to tune him up before he fights Dmitry Bivol or David Benavidez next.

But if in-case Canelo and his camp will not achieve their expectations or will not be satisfied in Canelo's performance. I wont' be surprised if they will make another tune-up fight and probably that will be the start of Canelo's career to end because people will start saying that there's no future for him anymore in the industry and might be better if he will just retire rather than embarrass himself to another loss.

That is quite an interesting speculation mate, I haven't really gave it a thought and believed right away that Inoue was indeed injured that is why their supposed fight in May has to be delayed and moved towards the month of July. You may be right or wrong about that, we never know because both camps didn't disclose any information about Inoue's injury and what we know was just he acquired a minor injury while preparing for their fight.

Congratulations to all bettors who sided with the Nuggets and you also mate, you even got the over/under option. 2 for 2 for you today.
Spread was easily covered because it was a 12-point game.

Looking at the bets here, it looks like almost everyone else are leaning towards the Nuggets which is quite surprising for me as I expected that there would be some as well who will lean on the Suns because they are as healthy as the Nuggets.

No, there isn't.

I'm not going to lie but I'm really surprised that you even ask that kind of question here OP because I strongly think that you probably know already that there's no such thing as guaranteed winnings in the world of gambling. Well, actually you can even earn more than $100 a day if ever you're really that lucky but again I doubt that you can win consecutively, and don't forget that it's not guaranteed just as we cannot predict what will happen in the future.

Few hours from now, the Phoenix Suns and the Denver Nuggets will have their first game with each other in the 2nd round (Semis) because they are the first ones who finished their respective series in the West. While the Lakers just eliminated the Grizzlies recently and they are now on a waiting game for the winner of Warriors vs Kings.

Only 1 game for today but I won't let this game slide. Nuggets will host the first two games.

Denver Nuggets -2.5 vs Phoenix Suns - Final tip-off revealed that both teams are healthy and no injuries listed beforehand. Good luck!

I almost forgot about Canelo Alvarez's tune-up fight versus John Ryder, and to think, this bout already around the corner.
1 week to go folks and we can witness Canelo fighting again, and probably we will have some answers afterwards whether if he will fight Bivol first or Benavidez.

Of course, it would be nice to see the Sacramento Kings moving forward to the next round and it's not because of the idea of seeing new faces in the playoffs this time but because of the fact that the Sacramento Kings deserved to it because they aren't just an ordinary team that barely clinched themselves to participate in the post season games, they are ranked #3 seed in the West which means that they are kind of hard to defeat.

But before all of that, they should defeat the defending champs in the Game 7 first and certainly that won't be an easy thing to do as the Warriors are known to learn from their mistakes easily and will adjust what would needed in the next game.

Just like I've mentioned few days ago, it's a win-win situation for Ryan Garcia because regardless of the outcome, this bout will give him the biggest paycheck so far. Where could he possibly find that guaranteed $2.5 Million if he's not facing Tank Davis and he could roughly earn as much as $5 to $6 Million (including the PPV buys). But aside from that, I'm curious how much did Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Oscar Dela Hoya earned from this bout as they are the mastermind behind this event.

That is if you have that much money to have an advisor in every move you make or at least consult some experts regarding the path that you're planning to step into. But most of the investors, whether if they got the right money to hire some financial advisor or not, they still wanted to do things their way because these days, almost everything can be learned on the internet and it's only up to us how dedicated are we to study things for our own financial gain.

Honestly, this is one of the dumbest idea to do after losing some money towards gambling and then making a false statement that the money was withdrawn from their account without their authorization when in fact they are the ones who did it in the first place. Maybe if they were smart enough to think it thoroughly before they did it, they could've get away with it and be a millionaire.

And yes, they were lucky enough to get a fine with that small amount after all the accusation and defamation they did. 150,000 Naira or 300 in US dollars.

I will be rooting for the underdog here and this will be a good opportunity for Vincent Astrolabio to become a champion at 118. It might be a tough close fight but I believe he can do it because talking about chances, he got literally got a decent chance on upsetting the favorite because Jason Moloney doesn't really have anything special within him.

And it's quite funny for me because out of all boxers that are inside the WBO's top 10 at 118, he picked Astrolabio who is ranked #2 and is a fellow countryman of Nonito Donaire. I'm sensing that Moloney might've another reason why he chose Astrolabio, but anyway, as I said, Astrolabio got a decent chance in cracking Moloney..

Well, just as what I expected about that topic because I believe Steph Fulton will climb the next weight class regardless of the outcome if their bout with Inoue. If I'm not mistaken, Fulton was already prepared to climb but it was delayed because he waited for Naoya Inoue after he suddenly announced that he will be leaving the bantamweight and will proceed towards super-bantam.

Apart from that, we can somehow say that Ryan Garcia already lost the fight when they signed the contract that got a rehydration clause on it. Catchweight is already manageable enough because they still have some time to gain some few pounds after the weigh-in so that Garcia will be not that drained but that rehydration clause prevents him from obtaining few pounds.

We can't really force them if they don't want to watch the remaining games anymore as some avid fans of their own national team will automatically lose interest if their team failed to qualify. I mean, to some, that is their only reason why they are watching the said World Cup and not because they also wanted to see other teams who are also playing in the same event.
But for some avid football fans, any team who will qualify will not matter to them because it's the sport whom they wanted to see and just some selected teams playing against other national teams.
