I totally missed the games today but I got a great result with my bet on yesterday's games I surely was late in sharing it here because I was too busy with something but here are the results for my bets yesterday,

Portland Trail Blazer VS Utah Jazz SCORE 114 - 122 - WIN

I was surprised with this game result but for sure the Portland Trail Blazers are inconsistent they now have 5 losing streak after losing again to the Utah Jazz and was surprised with the Utah Jazz even without Jordan Clarkson and Lauri Markannen it was still great Collin Sexton, Talen Horton-Tucker and Simone Fontecchio did a great job in this game and for sure if JC and Markannen is back the Utah Jazz can be a different monster again that is for sure, I guess they can truly become a great reliable team that could surprise the foundation of the NBA,

Sacramento Kings VS Oklahoma City Thunder SCORE 128 - 123 - WIN

The Sacramento Kings barely won as the Oklahoma City Thunder also managed to win this game, both De'Aaron Fox and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander are going on each other throats both got 40 plus scores for this game and I was really surprised with Fox getting this one, and the Thunders can not stop him, but this is one crazy close match and the Sacramento Kings have manage winning this one and for me it was a really great win for me because the Kings is never expected to really win this because of Shai, but De'Aaron Fox is really amazing in showing what he really can do,

Los Angeles Clipper VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 121 - 113 - LOST

Another inconsistent game for the Warriors and this time when Klay Thompson was firing up like this the other Warriors were in their shooting Slump it was crazy but because Draymond Green has been suspended yet again another loss and sure I just need to summarize my bet 1st if a player is not playing I will be thinking 1st if that player will have a huge impact for the team and if the team could fairly be doing a great performance if that player is out, maybe I am really a Warriors fan but 1 thing is for sure Draymond Green really blew out this game by not playing in it,

Tony Ferguson is talking crazy and sure when he sits down he looks extremely energetic but there is something in him that makes the place intense for sure, and looking at him quite really intense just by looking at him, and for sure he said that he doesn't care about anybody, and he isn't spitting anything about his training and what he does in the past thing he does with his training, but for sure because of David Goggins he was more positive for sure and in this interview, he has shown it, and enjoying this just like he has said,

I can not see any intense something about Tony Ferguson at all but if you are talking about the tattoos on his back maybe that was the 1 that might have looked intense in my opinion anyway I really wish Tony Ferguson would win this and that David Goggins could help him both Physically and Mentally and because Paddy Pimblett is already exposed I sure think that he has a chance but he can not underestimate the baddy for sure,

Leon Edwards versus Colby Covington: Trash talks in the press conference and trash talks in the face-off. It's hot. They are ready to bash each other's head. Cheesy Colby was always the one sparking up the trash talks, it seems like he ain't running out of words to say against Leon.

Undercards are mostly peaceful, they shook hands and some even hugged. But we will see once their feet are on the octagon.
Brandon Royval looks confident too but there are no changes in the odds. He is still the underdog at 2.60.

The most anticipated fighter this event I want to see is this absolute monster:
Shavkat Rakhmonov Every UFC Finish

Oh yeah. That guy is the most hyped on that card. He is just too strong and multi-talented. Strong puncher, his kick style is great with precision, he can submit in different positions, tough chin, and his takedown defense is high, we might see a Knockout here or a submission. A bright future is ahead of him and maybe after this fight, Dana white could put him in the main even against a higher-ranking fighter. I mean, fans love Rakhmonov so I bet he will make money for him.

I feel sorry for Leon Edwards while talking he just stopped talking when Colby Covington punched him the reality is that he can not win over trash talk with Covington, but for sure Colby Covington is trash-talking different fighters, Ian Machado Garry, Kamaru Usman, and even Steven Thompson and I surely love how The Wonderboy takes the Pedo Trash Talking of Colby, but for sure Tony Ferguson was the most hype in this press conference he is a Legend in this and the man I really love him to win this, and for sure if he clobber Paddy Pimblett in this fight all of the people in the arena will surely shout and chant his name that is what I am seeing happening in that event,

This card is pure fire so far even if the pre-fight presser was just Colby trying to get into the heads of everybody on the panel.
The guy even attacked Wonderboy who already knew what he was trying to do but just shrugged it off and let him do his thing. Quality man to not fire back because as everybody up there knew going in, Colby Covington is a bully.
So all Leon has to do is exactly what his coach said during the Usman fight:
"Don't let him bully you son!" Grin

We'll see how the weigh-ins goes for all fighters and hopefully no more drama so we can get to the fights without any loss casualties again as what happened to Ian Garry with the no-show.

It was funny how Colby Covington and Tony Ferguson exchanged in that press Conference and how they agreed in the end, well, surely this is going to be a big fight for sure and there is some point in the Conference that Colby Covington and Leon Edwards nearly get a fight in the press conference that is for sure, I am now looking at each fighters previous fights and looking if Tony Ferguson got some chance against Pimblett because I really want him to win this,
223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: December 15, 2023, 10:47:20 AM

Actually, everyone on this topic wants Ferguson to win and have been cheering and praying for that all his last fights Cheesy I really felt sorry for him and it has started to be hard to watch him fighting after that KO via front kick to chin. If a miracle did not happen, this is going to be Tony's 7th lost in a row. Imho,if Tony wants to continue fighting so badly, the best solution would be moving to other promotion. Or he should move to prelims or early prelims and face fighters of a lower level.

They really want Tony Ferguson to win this fight I can not blame them because of Paddy Pimblett's Attitude and because UFC is backing him up his feet are way up high now, and he thinks he can take on anyone, I am doubting Tony Ferguson's durability but for sure he got good wrestling that could scramble on with Paddy Pimblett, I really want Tony Ferguson winning this fight but yeah I am really torn if I am going to bet for him or not,

^  Yup same here.  I want Ferguson to own Pimblett's soul then ride off to the sunset and retire.  Smiley  And same for the Garry vs Luque one too.  I want Luque to win as I don't really like Garry much.  I think he's worse than Pimblett now that I think about it.  But the fight was canceled due to Garry getting pneumonia or something.  :/  


Yup! For sure Tony Ferguson is Pure Violence! I want him a legend to win this fight and just like you said to take him to the shadow realm for good, I hate Pimblett in all of the fiasco that he is doing to both him and his girlfriend Molly, I don't know why but for sure if betting for them will surely take profit I am not going to bet at all for them, 

Ian Machado Garry has an illness which is why he can not fight Vicente Luque in this fight sad to say but maybe Garry will be replaced by Belal Muhammad for sure that will be the fight we will see if Vicente Luque accepts that fight or not,

As I expected that Devin Haney would be able to win the fight and take the WBC Super Lightweight title from the hands of Regis Prograis, Haney won by unanimous decision from the referee decision 120-107, 120-107, and 120-107.
This is big achievement for Devin Haney because he managed to maintain the undefeated record he had so far and at the same time managed to add the WBC Super Lightweight title to the record of titles he has managed to control.
Watching their fight from the start, it was clear that Devin Haney dominated and Regis Prograis received lot of blows and even fell by knockdown in round four.
This is truly great fight.
congratulations for the win Devin Haney.

It was a great fight for Devin Haney he really dominated the fight his faints were superb against Regis Prograis you can see that Prograis was always reacting to Devin Haney's faints really something his speed and rhythm he really knew what he was doing, and for sure this is a big win for Devin Haney and I feel sad for Regis Prograis and for me, it is really not for Prograis to fight Devin Haney now but for sure he is not really ready for the Devin Haney fight and it is pretty much early for him to fight him,

This event was also great and the only fight card that is a title fight and the victor will get the WBC World Flyweight Title this fight was in this event the event Morrell Jr. vs. Agbeko so let me make a breakdown of the event


The Morrell VS Agbeko fight is also an interesting fight and we can surely see it on the next day, also Julio Cesar Martinez VS Angelino Cordova is an interesting fight as well for me both of these fights is worth watching as we don't have any main fight to look forward for now, I was surprised to see that the Devin Haney VS Regis Prograis is really that one-sided and it was really sad for Regis but that is how boxing works,



225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2023-2024 betting on: December 14, 2023, 09:14:13 PM
Here are my bets and predictions for the games today,

Portland Trail Blazer VS Utah Jazz

The stake odds for this game are 1.63 for the Portland Trail Blazer and 2.35 for the Utah Jazz, for this game Malcolm Brogdon, Ishmail Wainright, and Deandre Ayton are all questionable if they can play for the Portland Trail Blazer, Robert Williams III is Out for the season, and Jerami Grant has a Concussion and can not play for the Portland Trail Blazer, while Luka Samanic, Lauri Markkanen, and John Collins all are questionable if they can play for the Utah Jazz, Keyonte George, and Jordan Clarkson both can not play for the Utah Jazz, for this game, I will gamble and risk it on the Utah Jazz if Lauri Markennen can play my chance is high because he can surely play with Collin Sexton and Simone Fontecchio,

Sacramento Kings VS Oklahoma City Thunder

The stake odds for this game are 1.79 for the Sacramento Kings and 2.08 for the Oklahoma City Thunder, for this game Trey Lyles is questionable if he can play for the Sacramento Kings and Alex Len has an ankle injury and can not play for the Sacramento Kings, while the Oklahoma City Thunder don't have any injuries, for this game the even though they have injuries the Sacramento Kings still has their main players and yeah My pick is the Sacramento Kings,

Los Angeles Clipper VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.48 for the Los Angeles Clippers and 2.75 for the Golden State Warriors, for this game Brandon Boston Jr., Paul George, and Joshua Primo are all questionable if they can play for the Los Angeles Clippers,  Moussa Diabate and Mason Plumlee both can not play for the Clippers, while Gary Payton II has a Calf injury and can not play for the Golden State Warriors, for this game because of the so many injuries of the Clippers my pick is the Golden State Warriors,


226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: December 14, 2023, 11:14:33 AM
Heheheh I reckon that we should not underestimate the El Cucuy. It has been proven that this Paddy the baddy is not a very good wrestler, also not a very good striker and his only strength for this fight is he is younger and El Cucuy is nearing his 40s. Also, do not underestimate uncle Dana's purpose for these fights. These fights for him are entertainment, this is not to witness the best fight the best. I will not be very shocked if the fight went to a decision and it will be a split decision for El Cucuy.

Another fight similar is Wonderboy vs. the man from Kazakhstan. It might be another underestimation on Wonderboy, I reckon.

In any case, the fight that we should watch is the violence queen heheheeh. She will win!



There is a video of Joe Rogan talking about El Cucuy Tony Ferguson here it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7vJKQHMQBg this video they are talking about Tony Ferguson's depleting speed you can see that El Cucuy when he enters the octagon he is doing some jumping side by side and they compared it with the years 2015 to the 2022 if I am not mistaken, he can not do the same thing inside the Octagon and I surely don't want to be a bearer of bad news I really think Ferguson is a crazy guy still wanting to fight up to this day,

While the Wonderboy VS Rakmanov fight will be great actually I will not be surprised if Stephen Wonderboy Thompson could win against Shavkat Rakmanov, but still, I am going with Shavkat in this fight,

And The Queen of Violence Ariane Lipski is a fighting Kitten through and through actually I was amazed by her performance and I would like to see more of her in that fight in this event,


I just cant explain then how Adesanya evaded striking of most dangerous guys in his division; Whittaker and Pereira two times. Just take Adesanyas previous fight against Pereira. He is way more mastered in striking. And next time he is out played with shell defence and ate some simple straight punches from Strickland. I just dont understand what happened. Like you give controller to your younger brother while playing online.

As to Ferguson vs Pimblett. I think we guys should prepare napkins to wipe away stingy male tears, as Tony 99.99% gonna retire from this fight. 39 yo lightweight. That is not good. Lightweights rely mostly on timing, reflex, speed. They are not like heavyweight that are about power. And Tony, he is gonna fight against non ranked opponent. If he looses, then it is over.

Actually, even Israel Adesanya is puzzled about why he lost to Sean Strickland you can surely see on his face, that he is surprised at what is happening and it has slapped him in the face that he can not penetrate the defense of Strickland you can clearly see that he is really pissed off with how this fight isn't getting his favor for sure he wants to get revenge on what Sean Strickland is saying against his dog, but it is clear that Sean Strickland has gotten the best of him, inside that Octagon,

For Ferguson, I really don't know if he has plans on retiring after this fight but clearly, he is in no shape to continue any further, while Jared Gordon has exposed Paddy Pimblett's airheadedness there is still a glimpse that Paddy can take Ferguson with striking and with the grappling but if Paddy underestimated Ferguson in this fight then that would be perfect timing for Tony to strike back actually I want Ferguson to win as I hated Pimblett's demeanor, but I also like Ferguson to see the truth about his body and needs to retire,

My Bet and Prediction on my last bet was on December 12, and since then because of the busy schedule of the holidays I haven't made a bet for the games Yesterday and today and for sure sharing my big win in here, but surely I will bet for tomorrows game,

Detroit Pistons VS Indiana Pacers SCORE 123 - 131 - WIN

Orlando Magic VS Cleveland Cavaliers SCORE 104 - 94 - WIN

Charlotte Hornets VS Miami Heat SCORE 114 - 116 - WIN

Another disappointing lost from us because the Lakers chooses to relax in the first 2 quarters hehehe.

Lots of game but I think pretty much the favorites are gong to win and cover the spread. We have the Pistons and Spurs who has a losing streak and I think it will continue as they are facing the Sixers and the Lakers.

I'll go with the Suns -3.5 here @1.79. It looks like the handicap moved already from -1.5 to -2.5.

For sure I think that they did their best the game was a close one if you are referring to yesterday's game well, Kyrie Irving didn't play for the Mavericks but for sure Luka Doncic was really firing that night he got a double-double of 17 assists and 33 points for this game, while Tim Hardaway got 32 points, even if LeBron James got 33 points and Anthony Davis got a double-double of 11 rebounds and 37 points, they still didn't manage to win but it was a close one and you can not say that they didn't do much for that game,

I turn on the Lakers game to see that LeBron is out. Information that could have been useful to me prior to placing my bets for the day. I did get the Lakers in a parlay with the 76ers and the Pelicans all winning. Hopefully Anthony Davis can come through and carry them to a win. The way the Spurs have been playing it shouldn’t be too hard.

That was a bummer for them because LeBron James is the team captain surely if he becomes focus with the game he can eventually turn the tables with their great defense and offensive prowess on the court for sure Anthony Davis is not enough but still maybe they can pull through without him,

228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: December 13, 2023, 10:50:26 PM
How do you expect Tony vs Pimblett fight to go? Would we see last time how Tony opens people with his elbows? Or the fat kid gonna choke him from the back? Which is kinda hard to do, because Tony never taps, and he is good at bjj himself. Or it is going to be a KO? What I really know, that if the fight goes full distance, judges will never give Tony a victory. We have already experienced that. UFC likes Pimblett to much and he is their milking cow.

That was one possibility for us thinking that this fight would go but I see two scenarios and it is because I really didn't expect much in this fight

1st scenario was Tony Ferguson would win just like the Fat Kid's fight against Jared Gordon where Tony Fergusen is going to do great against Paddy Pimblett, and definitely could win the fight because for me Tony Ferguson is still a great guy with great skill in striking and can also dominate the ground game,

2nd scenario is Paddy Pimblett  can get to Tony Ferguson's back and deliver a nasty rear naked choke, or a guillotine which means Paddy could certainly win this via record

Well, this is a scenario where everything is possible and because this is the UFC and we can never know what may happen in a fight I really like the 1st scenario to happen,

Frankly, Strickland reminds me of an accidental champ. No doubt, guy is talented than most of other fighters, but not as gifted as the elite of promotion. And to remove that tag, he needs to do several undisputed title defences. Not just one, but 2 or more imho. Right now I put Strickland on same shelve with "Sterling during period of getting belt via accidental knee" and Jamahal Hill (seriously, I was surprised when he got his belt) if we talk about current generation. Or Matt Serra, who has accidentally TKOed GSP.

For me Sean Strickland is not an accidental champ, at 1st I really didn't believe the situation at 1st his defense was really incredible, and sure Israel Adesanya has gone through some humiliation after this fight is surely something Sean Strickland and to label him as an accidental champion is an understatement, well that is though but even though I don't really like Sean Strickland as a champion but because he beat Adesanya that though really change at first I was really hesitant but I eventually accepted it,

229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: December 13, 2023, 09:35:58 AM
Wembanyama is scoring more, rebounding more, blocking more right now. Plus, it looks like they are quite different in the end, Chet is tall too, but he is more like a Durant type of player, a tall skinny scorer who is doing fine, I believe in the next 10 years or so, we are going to see Chet do fine about scoring the basket, he will be an elite force on offense.

However, Wembenyama could become something we have never seen before, a 7'5 feet tall player who plays like a guard, that dude can score from the three or just take on step and dunk, that's how tall and quick he is, and he makes everything much easier for his teammates, plus he is a much better defender as well, his rim protection is near elite levels even right now, that's unreal for his age. I can see why people may prefer Chet because his team is doing better, and because OKC is better than Spurs, many think Chet is better than Wemby, but that is not the case if you ask me, just because teams are better, doesn't mean player is better.

It is still early for these two players and I know they will surely go a long way both Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama, actually both of these guys has a similar play style but for sure they will go a long way and may also get their own unique style of play, actually I don't expect much on Victor Wembanyama because he is just new to the NBA so there will be a lot of adjustment needed and the chemistry with the team is also crucial just like what happened with the Indiana Pacers they became a great team with Tyrese Haliburton's play style and it was then caught by the team because their chemistry has surely increased this also can make someone very OK with making the decision and play so Haliburton can make great passes,


Well yeah the LA Lakers have shown us what they are really capable of in the defensive end, but the Pelicans and the Pacers aren't really a threat in the playoffs, thus elite teams already had an idea about the Lakers defense. Now everyone knows the Lakers can lock down 1 to 2 player but it would be a different story if the other 3 can play and can creat their own shots, because the double team will create an opportunity for the opponent to have a wide open shot just like what they did to Myles Turner and Obi Toppins.
The Lakers might be a difficult team to beat in the playoffs if they are consistent and efficient offensively.

Yes! The Los Angeles Lakers have great defensive capabilities and they are great at listening to their coaches about what they can do, but they still have some loopholes in their game the other teams can still look at this matter and could also catch what they are doing,

While the New Orlean Pelicans could be a great team because of Zion Williamson, they still have problems with him especially his booming weight as his movement was not the same anymore, and the Lakers have exposed them quickly for sure, While Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers now is a different beast pretty much they are a strong team that can score a 100 plus score per game, and they are a team with a consistent three-point shot on the deep, for sure a different monster for this season and Tyrese Haliburton is still improving,

The Lakers are kind of interesting to watch after their IST run because they became efficient and strong defensively. I'm not sure but LeBron may have influenced his teammates to play their best including AD. I noticed that LeBron's became more aggressive during the IST semis and finals. I hope he maintain that kind of energy throughout the season and most especially in the playoffs, because the whole team needs it.
Let's see if he will slow down or play the same against Dallas.

Well, they surely are, but for me, I am now interested in the team's most improvements, and the Los Angeles Laker's improvement was their defense. Anthony Davis is really creating something different this season and In the In-Season Tournament they have shown that they will approach a game in a more tactical way just like what happened in their game against the Indiana Pacers they are a unique form in that game and I really enjoyed both teams performance,

To start a week with a nice mood, I have found two videos for you.

1) https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0mv0gWrZad/?igshid=ZDE1MWVjZGVmZQ How do you watch UFC ? Cheesy I am a European, but I have try to watch it silently at nights on the kitchen on ipad with beer, pizza and chips Cheesy

2) https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0aDOUyJJCZ/?igshid=ZDE1MWVjZGVmZQ%3D%3D - calf punches. Never seen anyone would land that Cheesy

European fell asleep as the fight started well it is because the fight was late I often fall asleep and when I don't like the fight or even If I don't have any bet on that particular event I surely fall asleep but sometimes there is some snack and beer for sure,

But anyway it was the calf kick that already damaged the calf, well, the punches just managed to remind him that his calf was injured and it hurt like hell, but that calf punch was surely legal,

He needs to win this fight before he can get a chance to face Chimaev inside the cage because he already established a great record which only few have accomplished in UFC history. Rakhmonov is a rising star and surely after he gives the fans an outstanding performance in this upcoming fight, he will surely be a match for another interesting opponent like Chimaev since he is gaining more market value after that.

Actually, I am curious about Khamzat Chimaev if he can surely continue to fight because his last fight against Kamaru Usman is really terrible for me he can surely do something about it and he can showcase even more, but what I see in that fight is a Khamzat Chimaev that is not performing well and for me back then he can surely dominates even Leon Edwards but seeing his fight against Kamaru Usman is pretty much not that great, For sure Shavkat Rakhmonov can have a bigger chance of smashing Khamzat Chimaev,
231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: December 11, 2023, 05:59:10 PM
Big congrats to Lakers for becoming NBA in season champs but also big congrats for LeBron and his MVP win award who is well deserved in my opinion even if AD really played great during this tournament. Now , the job is done , they can actually focus on NBA games and maybe it's time to deliver a winning streak.  Cool

For sure their confidence will boost aswell, as the In-Season Tournament  pretty much is all great, with just a 1 time game for every team I think the Lakers are well deserved team, that is for sure, but I think that the Lakers will have a likely determine mind going into the regular season that is for sure, and I am really waiting for them as I now like the Los Angeles Lakers to be champion this season, while even though Anthony Davis has a masterclass performance in that game, Lebron James is the leader of the pack so it is really great for him to get this award,

I mean they are contenders so to speak but not a huge threat I agree with you.  With lebron wanting the best of his legacy he needed to have this win.  Now he can add Champs of first play in tournament.  But yeah a 7 game series is way different than a couple single elimination games.  As for the injuries agreed its way too early to know but I'm sure injuries will shape this season at some point.

Kudos to the strategy of the Los Angeles Lakers they have shown true strategy and determination toward the game like in their game against the New Orleans Pelicans as they have some great strategy and exposed Zion Williamson's lack of movements, and Sure Zions is getting heavy again, and against the In Season Tournament finals against the Indiana Pacers they are double teaming Tyrese Haliburton always and they when he passes the ball they will return into a man to man defense, but for sure they are exposing every team's problem and that is why they have won this tournament,

^ ^

For sure Colby Covington is a very outspoken Donald Trump supporter and after winning the Interim UFC Welterweight Championship, he stated that he wanted to go to the white house to visit Trump and to present him with the title and he did, Donald Trump called him to go into the white house on August 2, 2018 following his win over Tyron Woodley, and that is how he gets the support of Donald Trump, for sure this is a big win for the UFC and that is why you can see that sometimes Donald Trump is watching and going into the main event of the UFC, as for sure it was all thanks to Colby Covington,

For now, we are approaching the new event for the UFC 296 it will be a juicy event for sure and I am so excited about it, the fight that many want to see is Leon Edwards vs Colby Covington, Alexandre Pantoja vs Brandon Royval, Shavkat Rakhmonov vs Stephen Thompson, Tony Ferguson vs Paddy Pimblett, Vicente Luque vs Ian Machado Garry, and Josh Emmett vs Bryce Mitchell I think this is the fights that many are looking forward in seeing,

Leon Edwards vs Colby Covington - for sure this fight is for the title match and Leon Edwards has come a long way and getting this belt while Colby Covington wants the belt so badly and wants the belt to return to America,

Alexandre Pantoja vs Brandon Royval - after seeing Alexandre Pantoja's status and records that was really enough for me to see how good this fighter is while his opponent this is their rematch for sure,

Shavkat Rakhmonov vs Stephen Thompson - now for sure I really think this is going to be a one-sided match as many know that Shavkat Rakhmonov is a beast while we all know we are questioning Stephen Thompson why he accepted this fight for sure,

Tony Ferguson vs Paddy Pimblett - Now this is really Tony Ferguson's chance to prove himself that he can still do it, while Paddy Pimblett wants this fight and for sure he wants his ranking to improve and if Tony Ferguson lost this he should retire,

234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 11, 2023, 11:06:52 AM

Indeed. Leverkusen failed to get an advantage from a big lose of Bayern Munich. But Leverkusen could get 1 point at least, they also can keep a positive result. They could keep their status as an unbeaten team so far. So, I don't think this is a very bad result for Xabi and Leverkusen. I can understand that it wasn't an easy match, they play away against one of the strong team in Bundesliga (Stuttgart). We must realize that Stuttgart is one of the shining teams in Bundesliga this season.

That means Stuttgart is not a pushover team and likely for Leverkusen to consider the game as a draw is it really coincidence, but for sure they still had a great start as Leverkusen still doesn't have any lost record, while that was a heavy blow for Bayern Munich as they lost to Eintracht Frankfurt which is considered as a team that is not really that consistent but still they got a spark in creating a team that could be dominance on whoever they face and for sure Frankfurt is on it right now and the fact that Frankfurt is not that consistent for sure,

Yes, there are many surprises in Bundesliga this season. I think it makes Bundesliga competition be more interesting.
Leipzig could win against Dortmund away, it is a great result for Leipzig.

I agree, Leipzig can surely handle their own and against Dortmund right now they are a team that can struggle in a game but still manage to win it, but they also are a team that is likely not consistent in making a 100% direct winning the game and with that Dortmund seem to be very lucky in that game For sure I want to see the latest game of Dortmund and I also want to see the games of Leipzig as well for sure I am ingrained with this match right now,

he lost a fight with Figue but won twice against Moreno, these 2 wins could be the substance in many discussions but because it's not very impressive i guess he just got lucky twice.

observation shows we don't appreciate MMA fighters who are up to controlling the fights, those fighters who has control over the fight are not impressive cause we always want to see fighters who can KO with their hooks. in their fight, Monero has to keep his guard all the time. he will do the same with Brandon Royval.

Alexandre Pantoja lost to Deiveson Figueiredo back on UFC 240 on July 27, 2019, for sure many are looking at that fight if Deiveson Figueiredo could make a good move on Pantoja or if he was really lucky in that fight just like how he got lucky with the Brandon Moreno fight, actually all Deiveson Figueiredo fight was a close one so you will be having a hard time thinking who really won, and will end up in a decision win, for me those Deiveson Figueiredo VS Brandon Moreno fights are one of the boring fights that is on the main event well this is just my opinion, but I am still end up betting on those fights,

Conor McGregor seems to be making some public appearances these days. He looks a lot smaller now to me then just a few months ago when he was filming for his movie role. He’s taking some heat on social media for facing off with Peter Yan but it seemed harmless enough. Also a good story with the kid from years ago winning his first fight at the event.

Sure Conor McGregor loves publicity, even if it is a positive to a negative one, Conor McGregor will surely take it and turn that publicity into profit for sure, his latest sparring videos are up on the internet for his fans to view, and he looks really heavy now I really don't know if what is his plan weight division now that he gained weight, maybe the Welterweight or the Middleweight I really don't know, but it looks like he gained weight and now has power in his strike, but he is now slower than usual,

Pantoja is a fighter who has beaten Moreno twice before. And his victory in the fight for the belt yesterday was his third victory against Moreno. Pantoja is actually a good fighter. It's just matchmaking that made him unlucky to get the title shot. I don't know about the other 3 losing records but Pantoja has only lost to Figuerido and Askar Askarov in this division. What's interesting is that Pantoja beat Rovyal in 2021. So I think this co-main event will be very interesting to watch.

Actually seeing his record it looks like he can dominate the Flyweight division if given a fight that has less wrestling because for sure he will dominate in that fight for sure, but I am really curious about Alexandre Pantoja, I really think he will not last being the Flyweight champion for sure,

There are some old people in my family which are paying cricket fantasy games. They usually talk about the games and their performance is matches almost daily. It is obvious that if any younger guy in family will listen about this, he will also be eager to know more about this. How can I stop the younger generation in my family being carried away by this and focus on other important things like studies only ?

At this rate, If the young ones already know how to play then there is no stopping them from this, but surely they can play for sure  but if they get addicted then it is their problem, and if they do not then it is OK to play a bit, you can not stop the young generations today with playing gambling, and it is still better to prevent them from knowing than to let them have knowledge about gambling,

For sure they will eventually have knowledge about it so for sure getting them a little knowledge and exposing them to little understanding will not certainly hurt them as we all will eventually get to be exposed to it someday, I think it is good for them to get a little understanding about it, and it is  our duty as elders to confirm and eventually teach them about this and not preventing them from anything, they should learn on their own that Gambling has some risk involve and not just about winning, and getting rich,

since last season I thought there was something different with Leverkusen after Xabi served as coach there and at the start of this season I also felt the same thing if Leverkusen had a strong and consistent performance without being defeated and to this day is still at the top of standings without defeat and I also saw an interesting strategy from Xabi, he can always provide a defensive strategy if he is unable to beat his opponent and hold the score to a draw.

maybe we have to patiently wait until Xabi succeeds in bringing Leverkusen to higher level with several titles and if this is successful it looks like Xabi needs new experience moving to another team to be able to get same results and if successful Xabi will be another talented coach.

For sure Leverkusen still have loopholes in them, so Xavi Alonso is just taking precaution from it, you are right that if Leverkusen can not defeat an opponent team then they will subdue that game into a draw, and instead of a lost score it is better to have a drawn record and I think that was a great observation and for sure Xavi Alonso is really natural in making strategy and he will surely go with the result that will be in favor for the team, for sure I really like his strategy and not going into a brute force situation like what Bayern Munich is doing,

Dortmund - Leipzig is likely to be a very competitive game this week. Dortmund aren't even shown as the favourite side to win the game but the gap of odds to win is really low. I still think Dortmund are one step ahead home though. Their home performance in the season so far has been much more impressive to me compared to Leipzig's away performance.

Dortmund have been on a really bad streak recently. But we could still consider their last two results in the league as good. Because they won against Gladbach and stole one point from Leverkusen away. I think Dortmund will win this game as well by one goal.

Dortmund lost to Leipzig and it is really predictable as Dortmund is not consistent right now and they don't have the edge anymore as when they lost certain players because they have traded and sold them, for sure Dortmund will never be the same again not like back last season, while Leipzig is still getting good not really on a level of Bayern Munich or Leverkusen but for sure on a level of just getting into position 4th or 3rd,

It's very ridiculous and seems very unfair to me to see a big Bundesliga club being beaten by a middle class club like Frankfurt with a very big score.
I watched the match and I didn't stop saying harsh words in front of the television It was very embarrassing for Bayern Munich to be beaten by Frankfurt. Meanwhile, in terms of performance, Bayern Munich had a strong performance but could lose in an away match against Frankfurt, which was very disappointing.
Maybe you wouldn't be too disappointed if score was only small, but the first defeat that Munich got was very big and very embarrassing and I'm sure a lot of gamblers lost their bets because this very bad performance and it looks like this is the surprise of the Bundesliga.

Well, for sure many were really upset about what happened with the result of this game many are surely frustrated if you are a fan then you will feel the same way, but if you are not a fan then you might have bet for Bayern Munich big time and seeing your hard earn cash fade away without you doing something is really a bummer on your side, so it is pretty much normal, or if not there is just a certain ache in you just because you are used on seeing the dominant Bayern Munich lose, for sure as Bayern Munich now is negative 1 down in becoming champion this season,

Results for my bets and predictions for UFC Fight Night 233

Yadong Song VS Chris Gutierrez ROUND 5 DECISION - WIN

Song Yadong was great he was in control of the fight from start to finish although Chris Gutierrez accidentally poked him in the eye even though he was poked in the eye Song Yadong still is dominant throughout the entire fight in Striking and even on the ground Yadong was controlling the fight from start to finish for sure his wrestling game increased so much is readying it in his fight against Petr Yan, for sure that is his main goal, and he even said it in his octagon interview that he wants Petr Yan next,

Anthony Smith VS Khalil Rountree Jr. ROUND 3 KO/TKO - WIN

Khalil Rountree Jr. was so much better than Anthony Smith and for sure Rountree Jr. was really reserved in this fight there were so many strikes for Rountree in this fight and for sure in the striking Khalil Rountree Jr. is so much faster and for sure has power in his strikes, but for sure it was showcase late in the 3rd round, but Anthony Smith try to takedown Rountree 2 times but it was not successful because Rountree is good at takedown defense, and so it was a lost for Anthony Smith and Siriously I think Anthony Smith needs to retire after this fight,

Tatsuro Taira VS Carlos Hernandez ROUND 2 KO/TKO - WIN

It was a dominant performance for Tatsuro Taira it was really a great fight from the Striking even with the ground game just like I expected and what I have said Taira is pretty much dominant and he is still undefeated in this fight, it was clear that Taturo Taira is special aswell and from his last fight I can see that his striking has also improve and controlling his opponent not only in the ground but also in the stand-up,

what was going on in hamburg today ? was there thick fog or why didn't hamburg score more goals . hamburger sv lost their first match
of the season at home with 1:2 against paderborn . now i'm curious if the coach of hamburger sv is still coach at hsv after the winter break .
and greuther fürth can't lose anymore . 15 points from 5 games is damn good. hertha bsc is also winning again.
they will still be promoted if the team continues like this . tonight the match osnabrück against st. pauli. st. pauli is the favourite and should win.



It was clear weather but sure even though it looked a little Shady outside the weather is great but what I see the issue was the Hamburg SV was having problems with Paderborn's Goalkeeper and the defense of Paderborn is something they will have 3 or 2 defensive players ready to defend and their Goal Keeper Pelle Boevink was really amazing, getting many saves on this game and Hamberger SV's defense is really critical now after that red card on Miro Muheim, but for sure Filip Bilbija also got the red card but for sure the defense of Hamburger SV needs to be fixed after this fight for sure there is a lot of holes within that defense of them,



VfL Osnabruck VS FC St. Pauli - VfL Osnabruck had a great defense against FC St. Pauli it was a draw game and I never expected the number 1 position team will have a hard time against the team below even though St. Pauli made a great performance the Osnabruck did a great job with their defense, and I was surprised that St. Pauli can not do something about it,

Dusseldorf VS Holstein Kiel - In this game, Holstein Kiel made a great win against Dusseldorf and now had 10 wins while the leader team FC St. Pauli has only 8, but Holstein Kiel still didn't manage to make it to the number 1 spot, well this is because both teams have 32 points Holstein have 4 losses while FC St. Pauli doesn't have any losses, but in this game even though Holstein Kiel just got 1 goal they didn't let the Dusseldorf made any goal so it was a win for them,

Ive made boredom double leg takedown and TKOed it. Easy fight (however fight went almost full distance, spent almost an hour there) . Got EBMF (similar to BMF baddest mf) belt from technician that restarted elevator and got me out.

Anyway, my youtube notified me with clickbait video that Arman Tsarukyan is suspended from fighting for 180 days. Thought that it is something serious, but that is only doctors suspension. Probably he has got an injury in last fight (or docs just gonna check that). While Dariush, that got KOed, got only 30 day suspension. I guess we would have to wait a bit till we see Tsarukyan next fight.

An Hour? WOW! That was really something man, for sure it took a long time for you because in that span of an hour, you can do so much with it, even posting in the forum but for sure you are now safe, and pretty much that will go in your experience and a story to tell that you have struggling to fight with the Elevator,

Well from what I have gathered he will be suspended for 30 days and also suspended for 180 days unless medically cleared,  so if he can cleared all that he will not have to be given a break for sure, but for Beneil Dariush and Bobby Green that is an automatic suspension for them,



The result of my bet on the UFC Fight Night 233
