Magomed Ankalaev got absolutely robbed in this fight decision. In my opinion, that decision should have been rendered in his favor. Even if someone is not a very big fan of MMA, and he, just for some reason, likes to see the scorecard once in a while, if you show him the scorecard, even that person is going to say that this fight should have been gone to Ankalaev win.
The judges are certainly making some stupid decisions currently. Both this and the Paddy Pimblett decision were absolutely rubbish. This is going to have a negative effect on UFC in my opinion. If someone has not seen this fight, I really suggest that go see the fight, and after that tell us how this is a draw!
I was also really frustrated with the results if you look at the paper you will see that Magomed Ankalaev really won that fight but surely Ankalaev should go out there and not let the judges decide for him, but surely Magomed Ankalaev left leg might be hurt because of the leg kicks Blachowicz has given him so there is really some damage to Ankalaev and not mostly dominating the ground,
Blachowicz is a really humbel and great fighter he is my favourite he always respect his opponent i agree uft referees hd created a lot of confusion lately and a lot of bad decisions lately especially that peter yan and omaley fight still it was a great fight yesterday still lot of gamblers lost am afraid since a draw in ufc is really rare.
Dana White was upset about what happened in the main event implying that the main event was terrible but he is not slamming the judge's poor judgment many are not really happy including me he said just like the Co-Main Paddy Pimblett VS Anthony Gordon fight many are not really happy with the judging but Dana White is just saying who are we to judge the fight and say who really wins, his giving incentives to all fighters who finish their fight via KO or submission and saying that Ankalaev got rocked in the 1st 2 rounds so he needs to go out there and finish the fight just like the Santiago Ponzinibbio VS Alex Morono fight Ponzinibbio was rocked on the 1st and 2nd round but he got back up and finished the fight like a real stud, and not letting the judge be the one to decide who won, but he has given win money for Alex Morono as well, so the vacant Light Heavyweight Championship he will do a Glover Teixeira VS Jamahal Hill, next main event, |

The 1st game has already started and right now the game is on favored with the New Orleans Pelicans it seems that Zion Williamson still had a grudge fuel against the Phoenix Suns, but right now it is a very close game right now the Phoenix Suns can of maybe not going to win this, but here are my quick pick for today's game highlight in green are my picks,
Detroit Pistons(2.75) VS Los Angeles Lakers (1.48)
New York Knicks (1.74) VS Sacramento Kings (2.15)
Atlanta Hawks (1.69) VS Chicago Bulls (2.23)

To me, its more surprising, Ankalaev didn't try harder to takedown in the first rounds as he can do it to avoid leg kicks. Or perhaps Błachowicz is just too big to take down so he had to wait for Błacho to be exhausted. Nevertheless that 2 rounds of controlling Blacho would be enough to make a win. Not a very convincing draw decision still. Who could have bet draw this fight, all the money are taken from us.
And surely those legs of Jan Blachowicz were made of steel for Ankalaev to stumble and almost break his left leg I think this gave Ankalaev a lot of problems in taking down Blachowicz, it should be a win for Magomed Ankalaev in my opinion if you if we look at the significant strike and total strikes for the fight we can see that Ankalaev had the volume and the takedown controls Ankalaev is really dominating aswell, but those Leg kicks from Blachowicz has made Ankalaev incapacitated and become slow for Blchowicz to catch up to Ankalaev, but if Ankalaev would just result with the takedowns early on the round I think he can win it, this is combat sambo when they are near a fence it will likely be effective on those circumstances, but again maybe Ankalaev is waiting for Blachowicz to get exhausted, Thos two last fights were just epic, a lot of people bet on Paddy, and was a surprise to see him winning because we all know the other guy did a better job. And the draw on Ankalaev was just cruel, wasn't easy to see him walking away with tears in his eyes, he deserves that belt.
And something weird happen to me, I placed a parlay with Rosas, Paddy and Ankalaev, And since Ankalaev Draw I think my parlay lost, but it just doesn't pay for that match and get as valid multis the other 2 fights for a x1.8 win in my bet, so, that feels nice.
I surely believe that the Ankalaev VS Blachowicz fight should be a win for Ankalaev, while I really think Ankalaev had so much to show and has the advantage on the ground, unfortunately, his stand-up failed him, so badly that a kick from Blachowicz gets him unbalanced and if continue may get him injuring his left leg, that continues kick to the left leg have made Magomed Ankalaev unbalanced and wobble this is why those takedowns from Ankalaev and submission attempt is not a viable option, what a guy Blachowicz but surely this is still a win for Magomed Ankalaev in my opinion, the Paddy Pimblett fight should be the draw result, and not this one, the judges are kind of not favoring the Russian to win, |

I saw a post in Facebook, saying that Zion do it deliberately because Phoenix eliminated them last year's playoff when he was not around.
So maybe he was just sending a message that it will be very different if this two will face each other again in the first round. Not sure though if this is the way it should be played. I mean they are already doing some trash talking themselves, CP3 and Booker in the side of the Phoenix. The thing is that they can't back it up just like the in Mavs series last season. Anyhow, yeah, NBA might be evolving, teams competitive fire are higher this early.
It was really personal, and Zion Williamson's logic is like that of Luka Doncic, both of them have some personal beef against the Phoenix Suns, while the Suns are pretty much getting these things out of hand and Zion Williamson and Luka Doncic had made a fuel over the Phoenix Suns like their drive in winning every game, on the beginning of the season we can see Phoenix Suns making a great game and topping the standings on the start of the season but upon having a game with the Dallas Mavericks where Luka Doncic is, and the New Orleans Pelicans where Zion Williamson is, they keep on having lost when they are up against those teams,
In the recent Golden State Warriors VS Boston Celtics game, I thought that the Boston Celtics could win it, making them the best rival for the Golden State Warriors just like the last season, I thought that the tandem of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown will get them to the top and beat the Warriors up, but the Tandem of the Celtics was beaten by the Poole Party in their latest game, that Poole Party is one heck of offensive firepower than the Jay Tandem and pretty much the upcoming start that is Jonathan Kuminga is performing pretty well, there is no chance for the Celtics now if this continues, it will be like the last season where the Warriors take the championship, |

His injury was so serious. There's no ETA for when he will be coming back again to be a goal keeper for bayern munich and i think that this injury will even prevent him to play until next season. He may not able to help bayern against PSG as the most important match that will be coming next year. The regular season is also very important for bayern caused by bayern must keep the positive trend until the end of season to make sure if bayern will get a huge chance to win the trophy again.
Will bayern try to search a new goal keeper as a replacement for neuer in january? let's see what's going to happen with it. Im sure that bayern already considered the new goal keeper for the rest of season.
Manuel Neuer got a Fracture in his lower leg and expected return will be Jun 30, 2023, And on the January replacement could be Sven Ulreich or the younger Johannes Schenk, or there are also rumors that Bayern Munich would even get Dominik Livakovic from Dinamo Zagreb or Gregor Kobel from Dortmund, they surely need to prepare and right now Sadio Mane is also on the injury list, that has an Inflamed head of fibula, but yeah it is a long rest for Bundesliga and it surely favors a lot of teams that has injuries to take some rest,
Statistics say that Bayern are OK with the efficiency in attack. And it seems to me that the departure of Lewandowski added variability for Bayern and uncertainty for opponents. Global results can be assessed at the end of the season, but there is a random factor - the Champions League. There is no doubt that Bayern will win the Bundesliga.
Actually, right now because of the addition of the new player for Bayern Munich Gardner has many wins now that they had Sadio Mane in his right position, pretty much Bayern Munich is much stronger now than they used to have Robert Lewandowski but for now, Bayern Munich is having a crisis, because if you would look at their injuries, we all know Manuel Neuer their Goalkeeper was in bad shape and might return on Jun 30, 2023, Marcel Sabitzer has a yellow card, and the most crucial player they need right now is Sadio Mané that has Inflamed head of the fibula and doesn't know if when he returns, |

Pretty much shocking results for the UFC 282
Jan Błachowicz VS Magomed Ankalaev ROUND 5 DRAW - LOST
For me another wrong judgment for the judge I think Ankalaev won this fight but man Jan Blachowicz is really tough pretty much Blachowicz is good at striking and even though Magomed Ankalaev has the speed he didn't do so much because the timing of Blachowicz was pretty much good, but for me, I think Ankalaev have many dominating rounds it just looks very close, Blachowicz even injured the leg of Ankalaev resulting for him to pull wrestling, for me this should have a rematch and Ankalaev should have resulted with the wrestling on the start of the fight pretty much he is dominating when the fight goes to the ground because Blachowicz is pretty much a different beast on the stand-up,
Paddy Pimblett VS Jared Gordon ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN
For this match pretty it was a totally close fight and regarding this fight, it is proven that Paddy Pimblett is not yet ready for the big league in the Lightweight division, if an unranked Gordon would be pretty much hard for him, I think Dana White would fit him to Conor McGregor Paddy Pimblett will be toast, and for this fight even though I have bet for Paddy Pimblett for me I think Jared Gordon should have won this fight or if they don't want to tarnish Pimblett's record they should have made this fight a draw instead so there will be no doubters or there will be fewer doubters on the judge's decision, pretty much Jared Gordon have nullified Pimbett ground game, just like what he has said,
Darren Till VS Dricus Du Plessis ROUND 3 SUBMISSION - WIN
Dricus Du Plessis is serious in what he has said that he is studying his opponent, pretty much he has shown in this fight, and this time he doesn't go there and become reckless unlike with his other 1st fights, I don't really think that Darren Till is pretty much serious with the fight Du Plessis is not a wrestler, and he takedown Till like he is not an amateur, and RugDolling Darren Till with takedowns, and that connected with the submission,
Bryce Mitchell VS Ilia Topuria ROUND 2 SUBMISSION - WIN
Ilia Topuria was so good at his boxing, pretty much the fight started pretty much close but as soon as the 2nd round started Topuria was dominating Mitchell, and pretty much he have shown so much in this fight in terms of striking Topuria was really good and he shown him that he is also good at Jiu-Jitsu, taken a submission win over Bryce Mitchell, so sure that he can take on Paddy Pimblett when he goes up a division, and I am looking forward in seeing Topuria become a champion, and just like Marlon Vera Topuria is champion material,

Here are the results for today's game a solid 4 out of 4 wins not bad at all
Indiana Pacers VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 133 - 136 - WIN
What happened to Cam Thomas? he suddenly breakout from his cocoon, but it was a very close game, and this time they win without Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, on the team, Edmond Sumner, Day'Ron Sharpe, Patty Mills, and Cam Thomas were very wild with the spread and pretty much because of this I think that the Nets now have a 2nd unit and they should let these 4 play even more,
Chicago Bulls VS Dallas Mavericks SCORE 144 - 115 - WIN
No Luka Doncic and that is a big problem with the Mavericks, pretty much Spencer Dinwiddie and Christian Wood has stepped up for the Mavericks but it was not enough because the Bulls have a great spread, pretty much 7 players from the Bulls got a decent game today,
Golden State Warriors VS Boston Celtics SCORE 123 - 107 - WIN
Pretty much I was surprised the sleeping splash brother awakened and gave the Warriors a good push-up, they simply got the Poole party again Jordan Poole got 20 points, Stephen Curry has 32 points and Klay Thompson got 34, while Jonathan Kuminga's performance is getting better now, and Draymond Green got a smooth 11 points, winning against the Celtics,
Portland Trail Blazers VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 124 - 118 - WIN
The Timberwolves got a decent spread, but it was not enough for Damian Lillard that got 36 points and Anfernee Simons got 31 points pretty much it was a fun and great game by the Trail Blazers,

Wow! nobody is talking about the Pacquiao vs. Yoo fight but whatever it is just an exhibition match anyway, but what I am after was the Sean Garcia fight, that is what I want to see,
Manny Pacquiao VS DK Yoo - Manny Pacquiao Won via unanimous decision
Well, I was really not surprised that Manny Pacquaio won this, I already know that DK Yoo doesn't have any experience in a real boxing fight, even though he has experience in street brawl kung-fu style there is a huge difference between boxing and you are limited in just using your fist, for MMA VS Boxing in boxing ruled, match there will be a huge advantage for a boxer when they fight in a boxing rule format fight well as expected all rounds go to Manny Pacquiao and we all know that DK Yoo is gassing out and just prolonging the time while Manny Pacquiao is having a great time here for him this is easy money,
Sean Garcia VS Seung Ho Yang Seung Ho Yang Won via majority decision
You heard it right as you can see Garcia's opponent thought this was MMA clinching and dragging him well that momentum of Garcia was all lost to the drain because of it, surely Seung Ho Yang does have a movement I have seen that Sean Garcia was doing great in the opening rounds, but that momentum was lost, well you can hear the commentators are mostly biased towards Sean Garcia but the Judges scored a biased majority win over to Seung Ho Yang, is it a robbery? I haven't seen the full fight yet, and I didn't watch the live stream,

Did you watch Philly - Lakers game last night?  What an ending! Both teams want to lose the game so bad. Lakers made a great comeback after Philly's stupid mistakes one after another, but they couldn't use this opportunity to win the game. Anthony Davis could've finished the game but missed the most important free throw. Overtime was the worst for Lakers, they couldn't even score (except the one layup in last 30 seconds) and deserved that loss. Fun game though, Philly could've won comfortably but they created last moment excitement. It was really a close game at 1st but the Overtime just suck the life out of the Lakers, they are not fit in having some Overtime because most of them are already exhausted, but surely the game is really great to watch and I thought the Lakers could have won this one, Davis could have just slammed it to the ring but maybe due to exhaustion he was foul and just could shot 1 free throw, you can see that the Lakers just manage to make 2 points from the OT, and Lebron James doesn't really care anymore, but I don't blame him he might be gas out aswell,
What to like in there? He is a basketball player and should not be acting like he always wanted to brawl when hurt. As Filipinos, we sure like when we hear Pacquiao or players displaying courage in the court or ring but this is basketball. They should not even think of punching or squaring off players on the court. It sends negative message to his young fans out there.
I really am being sarcastic in giving examples to be of Manny Pacquiao inside the court, but yeah they are Basketball players and should not be doing such things, and I really salute Kuminga in just ignoring Jordan Clarkson, well as I am saying when emotions are high the intelligence is low and this surely applies to all sports and not just with combat sports when people become aggravated by something they would tend not to think 1st and could do unnecessary things like what Jordan Clarkson has done his emotions were in high alert he would surely going to give Jonathan Kuminga a beating for sure because that is what is going on to his head, in beating the crap out of Kuminga but luckily it was stopped in the right time, and not uncertain damage for both players, |

Maybe it's the ring rust and of course, his mindset isn't 100% due to the war. Also, Vassily Lomachenko is already in his mid-30s, his IQ is still there but his physical abilities is starting to decline and he isn't the guy that has 1 punch KO that scares opponents. Maybe Loma is saving some of his techniques so Haney cannot figure it out. Haney won't duck Loma because it is the WBO mandatory unless he is moving up in weight which might be an option since he did struggle in weight during his rematch with Kambosos.
Well, I really think Vasiliy Lomachenko is preparing something and not really showing what he can truly do inside the ring, for now, I want to think that before he can face Devin Haney first, maybe he is keeping his trump card intact, but it could also be ring rust, but for further analysis as for now I really don't want to think it that way, yes Lomachenko doesn't have the 1 punch KO his opponent but the speed and volume can be his lethal weapon, but in his recent fight I really don't see the quickness or is he suppressing it but for me, he can surely still show more than speed on his last fight,
That might be the case but I don't really think that there is a point for him to hide his strength or power right now as he is looking for more future fights. Hiding his power will give him less opportunities because people won't hype him that much because they will think that Loma's already an old news and there's nothing to expect from him anymore.
It will be much better for him to show what he is made of really because that will send a message and people will start calling a fight with the heavy names in the same division as Loma's like Haney or Tank or the nearest belt contender to replace them. Just maybe though, maybe he is not the Loma we've known now.
Well, I am just thinking out of the box here like I said he is not really suppressing his strength but just not showing his trump card, and until he can fight Devin Haney or some fighter that needs to be using it he will likely be using it aswell, well for me Devin Haney was his real target and yeah I want to think that he is hiding his trump card for the time being, but it could also be ring rust, and right now maybe it is catching up to him and yeah he is really feeling it right now,
Right now the fight with Manny Pacquiao is nearing to start, and we all know what may happen to DK Yoo after this fight I really don't think Manny Pacquiao could lose this either, and Ryan Garcia's brother is also fighting in this event Sean "Sugar Rush" Garcia is fighting 1st, he also got a picture of him with Manny Pacquiao and thankful that he is on the same card as the Legend, for me I think this is interesting but I don't really want to compare him to his brother but Sean Garcia might become a great fighter aswell, |

I don't think the UFC will ever find another break through super star as huge as McGregor... Not in a long time at least. They tried with a few guys but it turned out to be cringe or the fighter turned out to really wasn't that good in the cage. That's why I appreciate what the likes of Covington is doing... He knows it's all for the lulz and he knows that we know it's fake and he does it anyway to annoy everybody. Lol. A lot of these guys who do it to look cool will turn out cringey and will never do it like McGregor did. I'm talking about McGregor before he became cringey himself. Lolol.
Daniel da Silva (129)* vs Vinicius Salvador (126)
*Missed weight by 3 lbs. Bout cancelled.
Well, sad to say in finding another Conor McGregor they will fail, and the McGregor from the past when McGregor failed to be himself when he started losing he has become so annoying after that, I guess the UFC will not going to get something like that ever again, for me they can not make another McGregor, because they haven't make Conor in the 1st place and at the worst part making Paddy Pimblett like Conor McGregor or Paddy being that man Another one bites the dust, a Cancelled fight again because of missing weight 3 pounds seems not that much but they still cancel a fight but that is their decision and surely there are many that really didn't care about it including me, Problematic is that the UFC does not have any actual competition. We have also seen Dana White openly admitting that even if the fighters are not getting paid as they think they should be, the fighters can open/move to another fight club and try to get paid more. Which is obviously not happening. And that is why the UFC is able to pay the fighters like they are doing and honestly get away with it. There is no doubt that the actual superstars of the UFC are probably not paid as well as they should be. But if they do not stay and fight in the UFC, where will they go? The UFC does give a lot of importance to selling fights. In some cases more than the actual Fighting skills of the fighters. I agree that in the end, that is what brings in money for the UFC. But I think enough money is generated by the UFC and they can afford to give the fighters a little more. At this point, the UFC is taking advantage of having no competition. That is why the eagle had opened its own fighting promotion but it is not huge enough or well-known enough to make any progress yet, but the thing is Bellator might be nearing what the UFC is doing, but unfortunately, they are not there yet but is why there is no other competition for the UFC, that is why Dana White is not afraid to say shit like these, he doesn't really care at all in what others would think about what are they doing, for now, UFC still has the huge amount than with the other fighting promotions out there that is why fighters are staying even though they are risking their lives in this company, and this will continue until there is no competition or any politician would care to make a bill about the amount of money a fighter that are risking their lives inside the ring would need to take, |

I don't understand how Anthony Adams made the old mistake of drawing too much attention before the fight, it seems he hasn't seen how all fighters who are too exhibitionistic or do unusual things to get attention before the fight end up as they end badly, most sometimes showy fighters always lose in the fight, I myself have seen funny videos on youtube of so many fighters who are showing off and doing unusual things before the fight and at the time of the fight they lose and the saddest thing is that they can't even last many rounds, they lose too early, congratulations to Dalton Rosta for the victory, he had better chances of winning this fight in my opinion
Well, wearing a mask could be something for him, it may be to scare Dalton Rosta or just to hide from embarrassment, which is the right choice knowing that he will lose to Rosta after the fight, Dalton Rosta was really too much for Anthony Adams from start to finish he is dominating Adams that is why the result is a unanimous decision, Dalton Rosta from start to finish had get all of the rounds, that power and durability was too much for him,
Pretty much for so much attention he got himself in a position he can never return again, and after doing that he surely regrets it for the rest of his life, for sure there are many that are doing this kind of antic like Ion Cutelaba and his Hulk painted green all over, he surely giving life to his nickname, and Tom Lawlor wearing a mask and he ended up stumbling down was really hilarious and cringy, and going out with a bucket of KFC on his head and with a face mask and bag that looks like a robot, and lastly his Conor McGregor impersonation complete with a sticker tattoo on his chest, and Markus Perez dresses and face painted as the Joker, and Angela Hill that cosplayed as Sagat, and Dhalsim from the Street Fighter game, surely a little fun would not surely hurt,
And recently LFA 148 event Chris Brown won against Alfonso Leyva now LFA has an RNB Welterweight Champion,
After that you said it, I searched all the funny weigh-ins and faceoffs from the UFC, and I was really laughing at all the Cringe they have shown, moreover I never knew that Angela Hill was too good at cosplaying and that Dhalsim cosplay really was accurate and that Tom Lawlor also was a funny one as well impersonating Conor McGregor is hilarious McGregor also like what he is doing aswell, Wow! congrats to Chris Brown (the singer) pretty much this is Lil Dicky in his body and fighting Alfonso Leyva but kidding aside I haven't made a bet and a pick because I had something to check at that time, but it was KO/TKO win for Chris Brown and the new Welterweight Champion, |

It is possible that this could happen, depending on the offer made to Bayern when something fits the why not clause.
Apart from the club, they are clearly business people and the sale of their players is not cheap, just like when Lewandowski was sold and the money was bought for Mane, where Bayern still made a profit, it was not impossible for Musiala either.
Even though the price set by Bayern this time will certainly be a little troublesome for Musiala's interested clubs.
It could surely happen, but surely enough Bayern Munich isn't really wanting to trade Robert Lewandowski back then they want a higher payment for him but Lewandowski wants to be traded and doesn't want to be with Bayern Munich anymore, he really wants to go to Barcelona so badly so the Bayern Munich eventually decided to give Barcelona a much suitable fair trade for Lewandowski because Lewandowski doesn't want to stay anymore, so if Jamal Musiala like Lewandowski doesn't want to stay on Bayern Munich anymore it is highly unlikely that Bayern will trade Musiala for sure, but it will also depend on the players aswell, Union Berlin's fall was really quicker than I expected. I mean a complete failure by them actually. Because they didn't just lose the lead. They started a long running bad streak in their league matches. I don't know what the reason was for it. Maybe there was some kind of motivation deficiency there. Especially the embarrasing results against Freiburg and Leverkusen must have dropped their morale even more. But they are still lucky that there has been a long break to take a deep breath.
I'm aware that they are normally an average team. But this good start to the season first must have some meaning for them. They can do better than this now. They have the strength to fight for top 4 and a Champions League ticket as a result. They are in the Europa League on one hand of course. But they might be likely to be eliminated by Ajax. If they do then they would completely focus on the Bundesliga.
For me, there is no meaning to their good start, and 1 word to explain all of it was really lucky, they really got lucky at the beginning of the season, and when Bohucm Exposes them that is the start of their fall, Bochum got a win 2 - 1, while the next 1 was Leverkusen that got a 5 - 1 win over Union Berlin, and the start for Leverkusen to get back again, lastly, Freiburg got a better game than Union Berlin with 4 - 1 win that is why on Jan 21 Union Berlin will need to win over Hoffenheim, and pretty much this is a long break for the Bundesliga so there are still a lot of time to practice and get back in shape, |

The inner Manny Pacquiao came out.  Well, that's the thing, it's a contact sport and Kuminga just acted that way because he felt like the contact was too much. Frustration really does things and sometimes it gets out of hand. I remember Jokic doing a clothesline to Cameron Payne due to frustration too as they were losing against the Suns in the playoffs, it's actually the refs that should be blamed but he took it out to another player which is wrong. Same result, flagrant 2. I really liked the inner Manny Pacquiao got out of him, it was sure a touch that he really likes to brawl but yes frustration usually seems to get out of hand in a heated game, and with that players surely get insane stuff and I think we all know that when emotions are high intelligence is low pretty much it will surely get out of hand every player is really not immune to it, but it can surely be avoided if one has high self-control, I’m watching the Lakers vs 76ers game and man is this De’Anthony Melton kid lighting up the scoreboard. He is 8/11 from 3 point range on his way to 30 points. I don’t think the Sixers would’ve won this game without him. A great performance for a relatively unknown player against multiple hall of famers. He’s going to be one happy guy when he gets home tonight. I’m happy for him, but would have preferred a Lakers win as they’ve been playing great lately.
I really think he is quite familiar with what he is doing from the 2018 draft pick for the Phoenix Suns, then Memphis Grizzlies in 2019, and now the Philadelphia 76ers this year, pretty much the kid got some experience in balling and is doing lately but if it wasn't for him the 76ers will surely lose this one, as Anthony Davis, Lebron James, Austin Reaves and a triple-double from Russell Westbrick is surely a big win for the Lakers,
Embiid played really well for Philadelphia 76ers. He started the game in a really devastating way. And that was very challenging to contain for Lakers. James Harden was at the heart of everything that was happening for Philadelphia 76ers. He had really smooth coordination with both Melton and Embiid.
For Lakers, Russell Westbrook, and Anthony Davis actually had good coordination in this game. Actually, Lakers played really well. But they did face some difficulties on the defensive side. I think if Lakers can start defending a bit better, they will be able to bring results in their favor.
Both teams really played well, it just that the Los Angeles Lakers are not really a defensive team, I think they need to invest in players that can defend or more focus on defense than scoring but surely a well-rounded player who can do that, only one because Anthony Davis can really defend very well but regarding Davis he is not enough on his own, |

Here are my picks for the UFC 282: Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Jan Błachowicz VS Magomed Ankalaev
The stake odds for this fight are 3.85 for Blachowicz and 1.31 for Ankalaev, for this fight, I think Blachowicz has a better experience, but the thing is Magomed Ankalaev has a better knowledge of where he would position himself against an opponent, he got decent striking aswell and sometimes adjusting that in his advantage but Ankalaev in the Light Heavyweights is moving like a Welterweight he is that fast just like what Cyril Gane in the Heavyweight so Ankalaev is pretty much unfair for Blachowicz for sure, so if Blachowicz had an overextending strikes Ankalaev will surely give you a counter for that and he has pretty much advantage on the ground for sure, and those kicks from Ankalaev is also insane, so for me Ankalaev will surely win this
Paddy Pimblett VS Jared Gordon
The stake odds for this fight are 1.42 for Pimblett and 3.20 for Gordon, For this fight, is really an interesting one, pretty Paddy's Hype Train is getting on his head, even more, and his engagement with Topuria was really getting on his head, I really think he needs to focus on Jared Gordon than Ilia Topuria, Jared Gordon just got a better box than Paddy, well Gordon doesn't have a powerful punch, while Pimblett got the knockout power, but if this goes to the ground Paddy Pimblett is in a much advantage, but Gordon sometimes is using that opportunity to get the strikes but Paddu sure has the upper hand on the ground,
Darren Till VS Dricus Du Plessis
The stake odds for this fight are 2.55 for Till and 1.60 for Du Plessis, for this fight, Darren Till is more composed and more technical than Du Plessis while Du Plessis is very aggressive but in a more unpredictable way, while even though Dricus Du Plessis is not technical on the stand-up he surely knows how to read a fighter and could make the fight go to the ground and started shooting takedowns, for me Darren Till had stopped his counters and become a safer fighter if he does not use counter against Dricus Darren Till will likely lose this fight, so I am going with Dricus Du Plessis,
Bryce Mitchell VS Ilia Topuria
The stake odds for this fight are 2.36 for Mitchell and 1.68 for Topuria, for this fight, many are underestimating Bryce Mitchell but Mitchell is more well-rounded than Topuria, he can box, has kicked, and has insane Brazilian Jui-Jitsu, while Ilia Topuria really never kick a lot, but Topuria had excellent boxing, and he is very well known with guys that have ground game and could make that against them, for me, this is a close match but I am slightly favoring Ilia Topuria so my pick is Topuria winning,

I haven't made any bets for today's games because I was out and busy with things I need to settle, but these are my picks for tomorrow's game please take this pick as a grain of salt,
Indiana Pacers VS Brooklyn Nets
The stake odds for this game are 2.04 for the Pacers and 1.82 for the Nets, right now Daniel Theis can not play for the Pacers, Isaiah Jackson and Chris Duarte are questionable if they can play, and Ben Simmons can not play for the Nets while Nicolas Claxton and Yuta Watanabe is questionable if they can play while the Nets still not their promising stars, the Pacers for me will have a hard time with the Nets, so I am going with the Brooklyn Nets,
Chicago Bulls VS Dallas Mavericks
The stake odds for this game are 1.84 for the Bulls and 2.02 for the Mavericks, Lonzo Ball still can not ball until January 19, while Javonte Green is questionable if he can play for the Bulls while McKinley Wright IV can not play for the Mavericks, right now I really don't like how unpredictable the Mavericks are so I am going with the Bulls for this game,
Golden State Warriors VS Boston Celtics
The stake odds for this game are 2.24 for the Warriors and 1.68 for the Celtics, Still, Andre Iguodala can not play until Christmas, Andrew Wiggins can not play for the Warriors until Dec 13, while Danilo Gallinari has a long break and could return on April 15, while Robert Williams III and Al Horford can not play for the Celtics, for this match Wiggins is needed for the defense, along with Draymond Green and Kevon Looney, but because of that injury the Warriors defense is depleted and only in defense but with the frontal offense aswell, while the Celtics tandem of Jaylen and Jayson is very crucial for the team of the Celtics for me I will rely on the return of both Draymond Green and Stephen Curry to the game, so my bet is the Golden State Warriors playing at home court advantage,
Portland Trail Blazers VS Minnesota Timberwolves
The stake odds for this game are 1.46 for the Trail Blazers and 2.85 for the Timberwolves, for this game Nassir Little and Gary Payton II can not play for the Trail Blazers, and Josh Hart, Justise Winslow, and Drew Eubanks are questionable if they can play for the Trail Blazers while Karl-Anthony Towns and Taurean Prince can not play for the Timberwolves, for this game I am starting to like the Trail Blazers they sometimes surprise us with their unexpected wins, that is why my pick is the Trail Blazers,

I haven't posted my predictions and picks here, because of sudden things that I need to do first, but this is the result of the Bellator 289: Stots vs. Sabatello event
MAIN CARD
Raufeon Stots Def Danny Sabatello Via DECISION, SPLIT
Liz Carmouche Def Juliana Velasquez Via SUBMISSION, ARMBAR
Patchy Mix Def Magomed Magomedov Via SUBMISSION, GUILLOTINE CHOKE
Dalton Rosta Def Anthony Adams Via DECISION, UNANIMOUS
PRELIMINARY CARD
Ilara Joanne Def Denise Kielholtz Via DECISION, SPLIT
Jaleel Willis Def Kyle Crutchmer Via DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Cris Lencioni Def Cody Law Via DECISION, SPLIT
Christian Echols Def Patrick Downey Via KO/TKO, RIGHT UPPERCUT
Kai Kamaka III Def Kevin Boehm Via KO/TKO, PUNCHES FROM BACK CONTROL
Michael Lombardo Def Mark Lemminger Via KO/TKO, LEFT HOOK
Cass Bell Def Jared Scoggins Via DECISION, SPLIT
The Full mask terrorist on the weigh-ins, Anthony Adams had lost to Dalton Rosta via decision I really thought that Rosta could get a Knockout win against Adams, but Anthony Adams was really safe with his movements Rosta has perfectly landing punches to Adams, even though a superman punch but indeed it didn't budge Adams a bit, but on the 2nd round Rosta is now looking for a submission win but to no avail, it was stopped by Adam's but indeed the one that is dominating the fight was really Dalton Rosta,
While Magomed Magomedov is having trouble with Patchy Mix's length the reach of those punches is troubling him in getting an opening and it was a good start for Patchy Mix I never realise that Magomed Magomedov was using Jiu-Jitsu instead of Combat sambo or Dagestan Wrestling even though he was from Dagestan, and so Mix have Dominated the entire round and getting that guillotine choke of Magomedov,

Here are the results for games today,
Miami Heat VS Los Angeles Clippers SCORE 115 - 110 - WIN
It was a close game pretty the Clippers might win this at 1st but Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler just pounds the Los Angeles Clippers, but it was really a close game and the Clippers have a great spread, they can surely win this one or another,
San Antonio Spurs VS Houston Rockets SCORE 118 - 109 - LOST
I was really surprised by the Spurs I thought with their many injuries or issues with injuries they will be less effective but they still manage to drop bombs on the Rockets, surely the Houston Rockets were really behind the standings, and pretty much the Spurs had made the Rockets too easy,
Portland Trail Blazers VS Denver Nuggets SCORE 120 - 121 - LOST
Damian Lillard was playing and have a double-double of 12 assists and 40 points but the Nuggets had to pounce on them and pretty much Aaron Gordon, Jamal Murray, and Nikola Jokic really made this game a win for the Nuggets, it was a close game I agree that Damian Lillard is in a different dimension with this kind of stat, he made,

Do you believe in a magic of numbers ? Ankalaev got a title fight after 9 straight wins. Khabib got a title fight after 9 straight wins and became a champion. Kamaru Usman got a title fight after 9 straight wins and became a champion. Max Holloway got a title fight after 9 straight wins and became a champion. Leon Edwards got a title fight after 9 straight wins and became a champion. Tony Ferguson got a title fight after 9 straight wins and became a champion. Islam Makhachev got a title fight after 10 straight wins and became a champion. Whoops, system crash Get the logic ? Sorry but I really don't believe in that kind of superstition pattern, pretty much it was all coincidence that it happens, if that could be accurate then Ankalaev will likely lose because Makhachev makes the system crash with his 10 straight wins Israel Adesanya got a title fight after 5 straight wins and became a champion, while Alex Pereira got a title fight after 3 straight wins and became a champion, pretty much I really don't believe this kind of theory, I pretty much Magomed Ankalaev will win over Jan Blachowicz, for sure Faceoff was finished for Bellator upcoming event and there was one strange image I had to share with Dalton Rosta and Anthony Adams This guy came is ski mask like some criminal, maybe to scare his opponent but it was interesting to watch. Prelims for Bellator are free on their youtube channel so remember to tune in and watch fights for free.  It was a face-off but surely Anthony Adams just don't want a faceoff but pretty much wants to hide his face or maybe a ninja or yeah a terrorist to strike intimidation on Dalton Rosta, but it doesn't really work with Rosta, pretty much instead of looking brilliant he looks kind of a fool doing it, but surely Dalton Rosta bulk body is the thing to be feared by Adams, While the Magomed Magomedov VS Patchy Mix was the one that I anticipated watching, Mix surely has the height advantage and maybe a reach advantage aswell over Magomedov and you guess it right I will surely bet for Magomedov, for this, he wins unanimously against Said Nurmagomedov on the Russian MMA Championship 2012, and a split decision against Petr Yan on Absolute Championship Berkut 32, |
