This is definitely a great fight. I've been waiting for fights like this, and finally, we have one this year. Lopez could be the underdog here, so I'm going with the favorite, which I believe is Josh Taylor. Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed with Lopez's performance against Kambosos. So until he gets a win in a big fight, I'm still going against him now.

JT for the win!

Finally, Dallas won a game, and it was a great victory as they won by double digits. I hope to see them continue to play with good chemistry, especially against good teams. If they keep losing, they risk being in the play-in tournament, which could hurt their chance of making it to the playoffs.

The spread was -7.5, and it was covered well. Congratulations to the winners.

Sasabayan ko tong Bucks mo kabayan, mayron sigurong hindi maglalaro para sa kanila pero gaya ng sabi ko, deadly pa rin tong Bucks kahit wala si Giannis.

Sorry kabayan talo tayo.  Sad

Lahat ng bets ko natalo, ang Bucks pa naman sana pinaka malakas sa tatlo, pero parang ibang bucks nakikita ko sa larong iyon. Maaring dahil din siguro na halos pabor ang mga tawag sa kabila, pero ganyan talaga ang sugal, kaya bawi nalang tayo bukas siguro.

Sino ba hindi nadale kahapon hehehe, ako rin pagtapos ng perfect the other day, binawian din ako ng 3 talo hehehe.

Kaya heto ang taya ko baka mabalik sa winning column,

Warriors vs Wolves - Alam natin natin na pag sa homecourt sila naglalaro, mahusay ang GSW kaya sa kanila ako -5.5 laban sa Wolves. Tsaka galing sila s magandang pakita against Philly. Baka magtuloy tuloy ang momentum.

Portland against OKC - kahit na wala na si Lillard this season, baka magpumilit silang manalo sa home court laban sa OKC. Kaya 10.5 @1.89 ako sa kanila. Maganda ng pinakita nila ng 1st quarter, pero mukhang humahabol na ang OKC sa second.

Aray naman! Parang di talaga tayo pinahihintulutan dahil kahit anong sipat natin ay di pinapalusot. Di naman kita masisisi sa bets mo dahil nga parehong team ay naghahabol ng spot ganun din sa Portland especially sa Warriors, kung nakapag bet lang ako kahapon o kanina ay malamang isa ako sa nasagasaan sa araw nato. Na busy lang din kasi eh kaya di ako nakasilip sa games at kung anong team ang magaganda.

Di bali bawi tayo kabayan, baka naman ngayon ay babaliktad na ang kapalaran hehe.

We cannot really blame them if that's what they wanted, after all, Inoue is a precious cash cow to Bob Arum and therefore he cannot really afford to see Inoue depreciate its value if in-case he is defeated. Anyway, there was once a supposed fight between the two of them but because of Covid-19, it wasn't pushed through. Now that they are both in the same division again, I hope their path will cross once again because people are already rooting for this to happen.

If only Casimero just did the right thing, then we should already see him clashing with Inoue. It's not being Inoue being a cash cow and they didn't avoid Casimero. It's just that Casimero is the reason why he become out of the discussion. I don't think Inoue is afraid of Casimero and even though I'm with Quadro Alas here, I didn't expect that he will have an easy win against Inoue.

More importantly, Casimero should not just pick top boxers but just negotiate a deal even with those below rankings just to have an active fight. As long as he keeps and continues winning, he will gain his rank and later on, will be included in the contender's discussion.

Yes, I also believe on the same thing. There is no such thing as Inoue scared to fight Casimero, I mean, Inoue already proved himself and already dealt with a lot of boxers that have a good names in the industry. Those facts alone are enough to say that Inoue wasn't scared at all, it's just that the circumstances between them became a stumbling block why the fight didn't materialized. These two got two chances to face but fate is not yet ready because no matter what angle we see, Casimero is not fitting anymore at 118 and what happened to him against Butler was imminent.

Another good fight, but it's really risky for Lopez to take this challenge, he's like beat the best boxer in light welterweight. However he reminds me when he take a challenge to fight with Lomachenko, where at that time Lomachenko is the best boxer in lightweight. The difference is Lopez was beat every boxers easily before fight with Lomachenko, this time he was struggling when he fought Sandor Martin, so I don't really expect Lopez will win this fight.

Remember Jack Catterall was give a good fight with Taylor, but the judges tend to favor on Taylor. I think Lopez must KO Taylor if he want to win, if it goes to distance Taylor should be the winner.

I am surprised Bob Arum did this fight as well. I am not sure who is the bigger draw since both are popular although I think Lopez is slightly the bigger draw especially if we are talking about the US market. This is a big risk to Lopez but this might be the only way for him to beat Taylor who's been inactive and at the same time showed a poor performance against Catterall on his last outing. Catterall did well and might deserve that win but the best of Taylor was supposed to just steamroll him that night.

The fight will be in the US so if the rounds are close, the judges might favor Lopez. Devin Haney should he win over Loma might be next if Lopez wins. Taylor might seriously move up in weight after this win or lose.

Yes, I believed that Lopez is the bigger draw between the two specially if the fight is in the US. Maybe if this push through in UK, Josh Taylor will be the A-side. I think it's a good move by Bob Arum to bring Josh Taylor to US soil to exposed him because not everyone knows that he unify the belt in 140 lbs although he beat Ramirez in Las Vegas. But in his next fight which is against Jack Catterall it was in Glasglow.

So if Taylor wanted to established his name, he should be fighting in the US more often starting in this fight against Lopez.

I think it's not like that, Josh Taylor would've get the fight in UK if that's the deal in this bout but since this fight is going to happen in US soil, they might've got a good deal where they got Taylor's confirmation. As usual, Josh Taylor will be on the A-side because he is the WBO champion and will be a slight favorite among the bookies list. But comparing between the two of them, this will be a hard fight for Teo Lopez because Taylor is not an easy one. Even that 1 year inactivity probably won't have any setbacks on his side.

And most likely that's what the main reason for him to stage this fight in the US. Yeah, he can demand a UK fight, but US soil, there is more money in there, and probably his fans will likely travel to the US too to see him fight. So it's a win win for him, instead of a rematch with Jack which might not be enough money as it will be in the UK. But I agree that this is a hard fight for either boxers, Taylor is the man to beat in this division as he is the former unified champion as he just gave up the other belt because it's hard to defend them to their mandatories. And one mistake is that he chooses Jack as his mandatory and it almost cause him his belt.

Yes, that's it. A good deal was probably handed to him by Teo's camp and promoter that's why Josh said yes and will travel into the challenger's country. Can't really blame him for accepting this new challenge because he probably got more chances to win here compared if he will give Jack his rematch, that's too risky on his side as the score was just too tight and a setback will indeed cost him his belt.

As I observed, Josh Taylor is getting less and less lethal as he aged and his moves are starting to get predictable by his foes. That will likely be the big reason why he will lose his belt in the future. I'm not saying it's Teo but an upset here is not impossible.

Did they change the time of the first game? I thought it would start at 3:00 P.M., just like Game 1. But it's okay, at least Game 2 gives viewers enough time to watch since it will start at 6:45. I have a feeling that it's going to be a close game and could possibly go into overtime.

As for the Ginebra vs SMB game, which team do you think will win?

Warriors -3.5 @1.98 vs Mavs

Malaki ang chance na hindi maglalaro si Irving dahil may nabasa ako sa tweeter 5 minutes ago na kakarating lang nya sa venue which is unusual dahil kadalasan ay magwa-warm up na siya sa ganitong oras. Napag-isipan ko na hindi ako susuko sa Warriors kaya ayon, nakapusta na naman sa kanila hehe.

Ang saklap ng pagkatalo nitong taya mong to sa pagkakaalala ko medyo masaya na sana nung naipasok ni Looney yung dalawang FT kaya lang dun sa 1.7 seconds na natira hindi pa rin ni let go ng Dallas nakapag time out pa at naitira pa ni Bullock sa tres at naipasok kala ko talaga lusot ka na dito eh.

Ganyan talaga yung alat siguro kung ML yung taya mo eh medyo meron kang biyaya sa panalo ng Warriors pero talagang inalat
bawi na lang ulit sa susunod.

Oo nga eh, may mga panahon talaga na ganyan na di talaga pinapahintulot na manalo tayo kahit nanalo yung team na tinayaan natin.

Congrats kabayan kahit papano may maayos ayos na bawi tong mga napili mo.

Salamat kabayan, mukhang bumabalik na yung magnet ko sa betting hahaha. Muntikan na nga yung Lakers eh, .5 nalang sana ang kulang pero okay lang dahil maganda naman ang bungad ng aking araw kahapon. Sya nga pala kabayan, minsanan lang talaga ako mag parlay dahil nga ay di maiiwasan na mayroon talagang isang bet na hindi papasok. Single bet lang ako para naman may hihita din kahit papaano.

Before that, we are not even sure that Casimero will pass the weigh-in against Butler.

There was a possibility that Casimero would fail to make the required weight, which is why he violated the rules. He was too desperate to make weight. However, both Inoue and Casimero have moved up now, and there is a chance they will meet again. Casimero needs to ensure that he improves his ranking so he can become the top challenger for Inoue once Inoue becomes a champion.

Inoue's camp seems avoiding Casimero because if they want to make this fight to happen then they will mot create any drama and let this fight happen. But it seems that their promoter doesn't want to gamble the clean record of their fighter so they jump to other opponent. But if Casimero will get another belt maybe Inoue cannot escape and can make this fight happen. For now Casimero need to spend more efforts to get big fights so that he may have a belt to bet on this possible match up.

We cannot really blame them if that's what they wanted, after all, Inoue is a precious cash cow to Bob Arum and therefore he cannot really afford to see Inoue depreciate its value if in-case he is defeated. Anyway, there was once a supposed fight between the two of them but because of Covid-19, it wasn't pushed through.

The price of getting food in my is not too expensive compared to other countries though the prices varies depending on the environment. There places you can get good meals for 1$ while there are still expensive environments that the least price for a meal costs more than $15

Despite the very affordable price of food here compared to other countries, is still not affordable for majority of people because of the high cost of living here. Lack of job creation by the government and their failure to create enabling environment for entrepreneurs are other factors that's left cheap price of food unaffordable for many

That is because every food costs varies from place to place and we cannot really compare how much it would cost us because even the vendors in rural and urban area know how expensive it is especially if you're buying it in an urban area. In our place, in rural area, a $1 is so enough for us to buy a decent meal with a soda included or juice depends on the availability but in urban area, $1 won't do you any good because even the transportation will cost you around 2-3 dollars.
1872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Shakur Stevenson vs Shuichiro Yoshino April 8 on: March 24, 2023, 08:59:50 PM

Most boxers started that way though, and I think this was separates the elite from B-fighters. Because elite fighters again will slowly goes up and then win belts make a name for themselves and then their name will become big like what happen to Shakur Stevenson.

Maybe careful match making by this promotional company, but everything lies on how he project himself inside the right and how he fights.

And for sure if he win this one, and since Top Rank has Devin Haney and Loma, he might be next in line to fight either one of them.

Yeah, he will have that chance if he continues winning his fight, with how this sport works I mean with how promotions
and handlers are making money with each fighter.

The more the fans continue to support and follow each fight that being offered the more we will expect that big fights will be offer.

Let see what will happen to this fight and start discussing Shakur's next journey.


In terms of speculations, we cannot deny that Shakur Stevenson's chance to win is huge enough than losing this fight because Yoshino despite of his decent records, he's not that reliable to face heavy names in boxing as he's not that experienced to be in the international ring.

And as for me, there are only two types of boxers in the world:
1. Boxers who are bound to be a champion
2. Boxers who are bound to be a steppingstone

Which I think, not to underestimate, Yoshino is the 2nd type of boxer where he will pave way for Shakur's name to be great soon. Other than that, this fight will showcase Shakur's debut and respectfully, Bob Arum surely arranged a safer fight for his cow.


I agree with that. Bob Arum know how to pick for his cows wisely and he gave Shakur a competitive opponent on his debut while making sure that his opponent's chances is just slim, I mean we can somehow differentiate the two of them by looking at their records and somehow, we can say that they're both on a different league. We should indeed not forgot that this is a highlight of Shakur and not his opponent, it will be a good warm up for sure for Shakur but that's it.

Arum care more about the money and the hype for his fighter, even this fight seems to be a cherry pick for him and more
on the side of money-making match.

Upset still possible but I can be more biased here since byt stats and by capabilities Shakur do have a huge advantage.

Not unless if Yoshino will get that lucky opening and throw a KO punch that will bring Shakur in the floor.
There's a chance that this Japanese boxer will be successful on his campaign but in reality, it will be a tough chance and it will be like a lottery in his situation because he got more chances to fail than to succeed. I mean, I'm not here to underestimate Yoshino but as the odds and stats suggests, he almost doesn't stand a chance especially after the fact that this is a cherry-picked fight.

Well, carrying out a brief analysis of what was mentioned, I also believe that the Lakers have a little hope to get a seed in these playoffs, but for that to happen they need to be impeccable in the next games, as this will be something decisive for them. ..

OKC, Timberwolves, Mavs and Jazz, these are the other teams that are in a similar situation to the Lakers, that is, it will be extremely close competition for any team to get the last remaining seeds for these playoffs.

That's the result now of the Lakers losing too many games in the early to mid-season.

Aside from they really badly need to win their remaining games, they also need to depend on losing those teams above them.

If only they managed to get on a good track in their early games, they will still be in the close competition in the play-in but not in the status they are now currently that they need to depend on other teams losing their respective games just for Lakers to make a chance for a playoff spot.

Yes, it's kinda too late for them to think about the ifs that could've brought the team to a much comfortable position because they were also the reasons why they are struggling in their situation now and what they should do is just deal with the cards they have now. Fortunately for them, it's not yet too late to make amends because the players they have now are much more capable compared to the old roster that has been around since the season started.
1875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: March 23, 2023, 07:43:13 PM
As I have said previously here that Tank is going to train in Mayweather's gym, suddenly he tell us that it's no longer the case,

Quote
Goaded by Garcia during a twitter spat on Tuesday, Davis (28-0, 26 KOs) divulged that Mayweather banned the southpaw star from using his facilities.

“What? That Floyd’s petty ass said I couldn’t use his gym anymore. I don’t give a f---!” Davis wrote in a now deleted tweet.

https://www.boxingscene.com/tank-davis-says-mayweather-barred-him-from-using-gym-ahead-ryan-garcia-fight--173285

Maybe it's true, maybe not, and we don't know what is the intention of Floyd to banned Tank as we thought that everything is cool between the two even if Davis didn't renew his contract with Mayweather. Or maybe this is just to hype the fight more, but doesn't make sense since this is obviously one of the biggest fight of the year already.

On the same article, it's not just Ryan Garcia who revealed it as it looks like Gervonta Davis also confirmed the claim afterwards that Floyd Mayweather Jr. indeed banned the latter from entering and using any facilities inside Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas, Nevada. Now, just like what you've said, it's not disclosed why Tank was banned and why now? Fight is already nearing and Tank could really use some help by setting up his camp inside his former promoter's gym.

Anyway, sooner or later, we will know what's the root of this as I know that Tank Davis and his camp will release a statement as they don't like to be portraited as bullied in the social media.
1876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: March 23, 2023, 05:21:46 PM
It's probably over for Lakers. If you look at the fixture you'll know they can't win most of these remaining games. In fact I'll be surprised if they get 4 wins in these 9 games. Only Rockets game look easy on paper. All other games are pretty hard or even for them. If Bron was back there could be some hope but in the current situation we can say that they have no chance.
For some reason, Lakers is talked about much more than other teams and the game they play in return is mediocre to say the least.

I think I might oppose that statement you gave because if the Lakers managed to defeat the Suns earlier, then I think they can probably manage to win most of the remaining games. It will be a tough challenge for sure but looking at the current roster now, they are much interesting to see especially now that AR15 is stepping up his game and contributing 30+ and 20+ point in their previous games. The way I see it, the Lakers got more chances now compared to previous roster that made them a weak team even if they are thriving so hard.

according to ESPN news

https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/35912571/sources-naoya-inoue-injured-bout-vs-stephen-fulton-ppd

the injury is not serious, but even espn is writing this based on sources, they didn't have information from Naoya Inoue's team from Naoya Inoue's real state, all they say is that he suffered injury, or the team is still doing tests to determine to what extent the injury can be serious or mild and for that reason the team prefers to just say that he suffered an injury or else Naoya Inoue's team already knows that the injury is serious and that Naoya Inoue may have to stay one good time to recover and the fight will have to take a long time to happen, but in order not to create disappointment in the fans they are hiding the truth

because from the moment they talk about postponing it for an indefinite period, it means that there is not even a forecast for the improvement of the injury for him to return to training and the fight can be held, in my opinion, Naoya Inoue may have suffered an injury that will leave a good time to recover, so we won't see his fight against Naoya Inoue anytime soon, in the ESPN article they talked about that they could fight again in the Japanese

The fight, which was set to be streamed on ESPN+ stateside, is being rescheduled for the summer in Japan, sources said.

when the press guys don't mention the source of the news it means that Naoya Inoue's team still doesn't want everyone to know what's really going on, so I don't think they'll reschedule it for the summer, it might take a lot longer to see this fight happen

Let's just be positive folks, I believe they've got enough reasons for not disclosing Inoue's condition for the time being but after the tests is done, I believe they will have their own statement whether this fight will be postponed or worse, cancelled. As of now, what we know is just the basics like Inoue is currently injured, no news how bad it is or if it's just a minor. Hopefully, it's not that serious so that even if it will be postponed, it will happened on their new projected date which is in Summer time in Japan.

Kamusta betting nyo kabayan? Sa akin ay matumal narin netong nakaraan at mailap na masyado ang swerte o di kaya sadyang napaka unpredictable lang ng games ngayon dahil nga ay malapit na rin matatapos ang regular season. Pero wala tayong magagawa kundi subukan muli ang swerte natin Grin hataw na naman tayo!

Long story short - this is going to be a useless fight for Canelo, that only his fans would watch. Real boxing fans are not much interested in this fight, as they expect nothing outstanding from it. Expect pressure from Canelo and a TKO in round 4-6. That is it.
I don't think it will be a useless fight, yes it's a cherry-picked fight but the boxing community will still be interested but not to the point, of buying high prices for ringside or PPV, the media will watch and follow the development, and the actual fight if you're an undisputed champion and on a ring magazine people will still be interested to follow your career.
Who knows Ryder can offer something and give Canelo a tough fight, boxing fans want action regardless of who's fighting. and boxing fans will watch boxing as long as it's popular boxers regardless of who they are fighting.

Then I will ask a bit differently, if there will be two huge boxing fights running simultaneously or Canelo vs Ryder fight will be running parallel the sports/team you are fan of, will you rather watch Canelo vs Ryder fight or other sports event? Personally, I would watch something other, and next day morning just google for result.

Or lets discuss what this fight will give Canelo despite even more money? He wont be getting any new belt, he wont advance in the rating, a victory over Ryder wont open a gate for a new opponent. Imho this fight is only needed for him to perform in Mexico and be 1000% sure to win. That is it. Easy and useless fight.

I'm both a Canerlo and a boxing fan I want to see good boxing, remember the Ruiz - Joshua fight, it looks like a cherry-picked fight but it turn out not to be and turn out to be a great boxing match if boxing fans just shrug off this fight and call it another guaranteed win for Joshua then they've just missed a very good fight, how about the Tyson - Douglas fight it looks like a walk in a park but boxing fans still watch it so they are treated for the biggest upset, we boxing fans loves good boxing so boxing fans will watch it because they love good and high-level
boxing, this could be a walk in the park for Canelo but we will still see good boxing and that's a good reason to watch it.
I think it will be a good fight as we all know that both higher are good in terms of fighting as we saw their previous fights it's look like we can see a very close fight and even though some user are favored Canelo alvarez cause without a doubt canelo is a strong fighter and have a very good fighting skills that he can adjust his techniques in order to win the fight. But for sure John ryder will be fight and prove to us that he can beat canelo.

Users as well as bettors are favoring Canelo because based on speculations, Canelo got more facts and already proved what he can do inside the ring while for John Ryder, he is still on the process of making his own name and carved it in the industry. This will be his biggest opportunity because he is fighting to be a champion and will acquire all four belts of Canelo, but before that, he should prove himself that he's worthy. People would want to see this Ryder perform and that includes me, he's an interim champion, so I expect a good fight from him.
