2221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Vasiliy Lomachenko vs Jamaine Ortiz - October 29 on: October 10, 2022, 04:21:04 PM
^ Yes, same expectation as others, he should be showing us a good performance in this comeback fight. We missed him already when he involved himself to protect his homeland. But it's time that he goes back fighting against like his compatriot in Usyk. So if he wins by knockout or a complete shut out of Ortiz in the judges card, I'm not going to be surprised as this is the Loma that we are familiar since he become a champion.

You don't need to ask that for him because we know Loma, he is a great boxer and he is always an entertaining boxer to watch. In fact, I'm more interested on his next fight as this fight is just probably his warm up before a big fight which could happen this year.

Yeah, and most likely his next fight will be either against a very worthy opponent on Devin Haney or George Kambosos. George Kambosos beat Teo Lopez who beat Loma. But Haney beat Kambosos and this is their rematch. So he will have a chance to get back his belt technically. And so this could be just a warm up for him and show us that he still the champion in this division.

We talking advance that Lomachenko's hands will be raised in this fight. Sounds realistic too because Loma is special. But even if we are confident of a Loma victory, we want to see if he is back to his championship form.

If Loma is back to his championship form. Who is your bet between Loma and Haney? Are you still confident that Loma can be victorious over the younger champion who owns all the belts?

In the same sense, we are already underestimating Jamaine Ortiz here, I mean it's undeniable that he have almost no chance against the veteran Loma but the kid got pretty decent record to begin with. This is indeed a good warm-up and a good challenge for Loma to see if he's already back in his old form. Talking about Loma-Haney is quite premature as of this moment as we are still observing how will Loma perform this time, maybe after the fight, we will weigh things for Loma and Haney, and who got the upper hand.

Mostly a bias comments since most of us here knows how Loma was and fighting against someone who we think not at in the same level like Loma, it's understandable that fans will go to his side, but you are correct we haven't seen him fight for quite some time and this upcoming one might be a good ticket to impress the fans and to have that good opportunities to challenge the belt holder.

But what else we can expect once he wins this fight, the call for negotiation between champion's camp will be the target.

On the money side, promoters will wait for the fans to actively call for the potential next upcoming fights.

Yes, that is what I believe. Loma was indeed good but that was before the war broke and we can't say yet if that same war took some toll on his performance given the situation that he was also inactive during those time. Ortiz here have a big challenge to do as fans on other side are just viewing him as a mere tune-up fight for Loma's future fight and he's still undefeated while Loma have nothing to lose because he was defeated twice already.

After this fight, we can answer all our questions and the scenario you gave above is indeed possible. If for the glory, his camp will surely aim for the undisputed boxer but on the business/money side, they will wait for the other boxers who are next in rank to fight him.

^^ I really thought that this could be a big issue for the Warriors team.

But according to Moody, after the incidence, Jordan Poole continue with his own practice for 2 hours. So that is kind of mindset that the Warriors want to see from him and not going to the media and bad mouth Green. And Draymond already made a public apology so maybe the team itself is glad that something positive is already happening from the background and put their difference aside.
So that's quick and they're good again? After that heavy hook that Draymond has made to Poole, they just let it pass and Poole continued his own practice.
There are fans that would like to see some disciplinary action for Draymond because he's the one who became too aggressive and Poole was likely the victim.
But anyway, if things are already good for them then there's no need to worry about both of them since Draymond has apologized publicly and the management and Poole is okay with it.

I bet the franchise is pulling some strings to keep the issue behind and let the time cool it down but the fans wouldn't let them as long Green didn't received his punishment. Warrior's CEO is thinking about giving Green a suspension but Gen. Manager, Bob Myers, is looking the opposite way and it's expected that Green would go out and give a public apology because it's either he was ordered to do so or he is that worried that he may not receive an extension. Either way, the Warrior's locker room wouldn't be the same anymore because of the beef.

Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/alispagnola


This video was uploaded in early 2021. It was an exciting story and I want to share it here.

This is another way of showing how early investors or believers received their part of cake from their investments , though this sounds like not really a trust but an opportunity and experimental? yet that said painter is a double digit richer now .

and maybe as she continues to see the future? then keeping the said bitcoin will bring Her more confident as the price will continue to progress if she will look deeper to what is bitcoin all about and how this works for betterment of the system and the market.

As said by the OP, the painter didn't know what's bitcoin way back 2013 or if it will play a huge part in today's world. What amazed me the most is the fact that she still know and remember the account she made in blockchain.com, I mean, years passed by and she didn't intentionally held the bitcoin for a reason but she still remembered her account. Also, yes she's more richer now although we didn't know if she had sold it already or still holding it for the years to come.
2224  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Bearish market the right time to buy coins? on: October 10, 2022, 02:25:40 PM
To answer the title, yes.

It's always been the words that we say when it's about the bearish market. It's the best time to buy coins that you're longing to buy because they're way cheaper than the bull run.

There are folks that do buy during the bull run and don't buy when the bull ends. As the bear enters, they think that it's not the best time to buy because it's cheaper than before.

Well, yes, there's no downside of buying in bullish season and they certainly have their own reasons why they are only buying during the bull run. One of those reasons is because they believe that they are still buying the coin at a cheaper price as they see and believe that it will flourish soon. When the bear enters, they cannot really measure the coin. But as far as the title is concerned then yes, it is indeed a good time to buy coins during bearish season as coins tend to be much cheaper than bullish season.

No matter how I get myself into gambling, I know when to stop, if am winning or losing. My experience in gambling made me figure that out. Nothing syphons money more in a twinkle of an eye than gambling. I know how many times, I have lost countless times when gambling.

My experience in gambling has made me come to the fact that a gambler should gamble for fun not gamble with his whole money, to avoid unpalatable stories. Gamble with a minimum amount that you can afford to lose without problems

Good for you because you established your mind at an early age and you know what's right or wrong when it comes to gambling. I, on the other hand didn't have the same mindset like yours when I was young and I had plenty of experience when it comes to going overboard in gambling and the truth is, even my bank is not safe when I'm gambling as I tend to withdraw every time when things is getting out of hand. But fortunately, that experience taught me some lessons in life as I experienced how to have nothing just because of that habit. Now I always keep some safe distance when it comes to gambling as I know that gambling once destroyed my life, so if I'm looking for fun or entertainment, I always have handful of other choices.

It looks like Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor are indeed talking behind the scenes to make the rematch into a reality because it was already reported that the two is nearing to close the deal and it says that the fight will be contested at 155 pounds, currently, the two are just finishing some details including the terms.

If that will happen, their rematch will likely happen somewhere in the 1st quarter of 2023 because Floyd Mayweather have 1 more exhibition fight this year versus Deji (another YouTube star) at the Coca-Cola Arena, Dubai.

We could say that this is a two rematch because they are planning two fights across two sports.

Mayweather vs McGregor rematch is close: One boxing and one MMA fight for 1.5bn dollars
Could finally meet again in the Middle East
https://www.marca.com/en/boxing/2022/10/08/634163bd46163fdb7d8b45db.html

As long as they are Youtuber's MMA fighters Floyd Mayweather will surely fight, them, for me Deji is no match against Floyd Mayweather but Conor McGregor has a fighting chance because he is a fighter and he also fought Mayweather inside the ring, so he has experience in fighting him, but a huge likely that Floyd Mayweather will surely fight both these fighters,

Of course, Floyd Mayweather will always win because even professional boxers didn't have that chance to defeat him, what more for this YouTuber superstars like Deji. Mayweather is just taking advantage of their fan bases to hype and market the fight. But McGregor is another story, Floyd's chance gradually decreases if it's against him, I'm not sure if this will materialize as he already said that he's not interested to fight real players.
2228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Dmitry Bivol vs Zurdo Ramirez on: October 09, 2022, 05:00:45 PM
Money wise Bivol may choose to fight another fighter instead of Canelo he might learn from that last fight as he didn't get the whole amount not looking to any update yet if the money already been transferred to him. Though both he and Canelo might look for an alternative route in case there's no rematch, that may take place for them.

If Bivol will win this one for sure, there are other challengers that will going to seek for him, and to highlight your comment regards to neutral countries.

It would be the best options for Bivol's camp to accept the challenge and make a huge amount of money.

There is no update, because Bivol hasn't received any money yet. The amount included 5 million USD in guaranteed purse, and a share of the PPV buys. The rematch can go forward, given Canelo's team find a solution to this issue. Either the fight can take place in the United States, with a mechanism in place which guarantees that Bivol receives the payment. Or the fight need to take place in middle-east or China, so that there is no issue with transferring the money. If both these options are not possible, then Bivol should look elsewhere.

That is also the issue because Bivol haven't received his share yet, maybe he'll get interested or may give Canelo a chance if Hearn will pull some strings to get Bivol's share that was guaranteed to him. Also, Bivol already learned a lesson in American soil and I won't be surprised if the fight will take place in UAE where the place is neutral for both camps. That is the nearest possible scenario because Bivol here have earned his right to demand.

Negotiation will take place for sure and both camps will agree if where they wanted to see the fight to happen, learning from that last fight and the money still stuck for sure Bivol's camp will be more wise now, they will not allow that to happen again since it will be Canelo that will ask for the rematch and they have the belt if Bivol continue to win.

We will hear more about this once both camps start negotiating if they are still interested in fighting each other and if Canelo is still interested in redeeming himself after suffering a defeat from Bivol.

Yes, Canelo and Hearn doesn't have much choice but to agree with Bivol's decision as he already earned the right to demand in case a rematch will happen even if the fight will be contested at 168 pounds. But before that, we know Canelo's camp are still observing what will happen on Bivol's upcoming match as that will determine if they will activate the rematch or not. We will know about it more soon, just like what you've said.
2229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Fernando Martinez vs Jerwin Ancajas rematch - Oct.8 on: October 09, 2022, 04:33:13 PM
It's total domination by Martinez again, Ancajas is good in the early rounds but Martinez again overwhelmed him with a lot of punches, Martinez chased all throughout the fight he is the champion but he's taking the fight on Ancajas , its just a continuation of the first fight, Ancajas should move now to a higher division if he is having problem with weigh.

JUDGE'S SCORES 119-109, 118-110 and 118-110

Yes, I read that Martinez took Ancajas best shot and then he throws some. And base on the scorecard, it was complete domination of Martinez just like the first fight.

So no excuses this time, one of the longest reign champion finally met his match stride for stride and thus far the better and superior fighter. Yes, most likely Ancajas will have to move up in weight now, he is no longer the champion so he might try into the next division.

Yup, there are no reasons this time because Martinez proved his greatness once again and that luck is not a factor in their first encounter just because Ancajas is having some issues. It was a good fight and Ancajas tried to put heavy blows on Martinez but the latter just shook it off and gave much heavier blows to Ancajas. I guess it's indeed time for him to move in the next weight class.
2230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 09, 2022, 02:07:29 PM
Woah, this is something new and I thought that there won't be any issue like this as it seems they have good chemistry in the team. Well, this isn't a good sign for the Warriors if one of them is acting like he's full of himself.
It's possible that they'll trade him later but with a better value since he's shown good performance during the finals. We'll see how they'll mend this ruckus that Poole has made.

And guess what, there's some rumor surfacing in the internet today that Jordan Poole allegedly said to Draymond Green that it's time to pack his things. I don't know the real reason behind their altercation but Poole should know his place and being boastful won't help his situation as that will only call another misunderstanding in the future.

Draymond Green is now facing disciplinary action and Joe Lacob is also considering a suspension to Green because of his unprofessionalism. This could be a problem to the team because they are showing some weakness and the other teams in the league will surely use that.
We're getting the sides of them, some of the news that I've read said that Poole has changed his attitude and that's why the incident happened.
But on the other side, it's said that Poole did nothing wrong and it's Draymond that's aggressive. I guess everyone will understand that Poole won't do anything bad because he's about to get a very profitable extension so, he's not in a position to compromise it.
Well, all of the news that is coming out are all speculations and we're all guessing what really happened because it's unclear. Although we've got some glimpse of it because there's the video but that's not enough to understand what's the actuality.

Good point! We don't know the whole story yet and what led Draymond Green to punch Jordan Poole, the leaked video is somehow one-sided because it only shows that Poole was assaulted and nothing shows how it started and nobody can confirm who started it before the altercation happened. Also, I think this is the first time that Green hasn't controlled himself towards his teammate. Either way, this is bad for the team.

^ Again, the fight has been hype already and to that point that it seems that our waiting is turning into disappointment because of the time that we have to wait and then we don't know if who is balking or stalling or if they have the contracts but a lot of points to be cleared. Hopefully that talks is still going on secretly as they don't want to preempt to get leak to the media as this is a very important fight in the division, it's a unification fight and I don't remember when it did happen at 147 lbs.

It's been hyped since May this year and I think both camps started talking last June or July, fans have been feeling great and delighted when they knew that the deal is finally finished and both camps are just waiting for the contract but few days later, everything turns to gray as the fight is now back on square one.

Maybe it's much better to leave it as is and just wait for them whenever they are ready because I believe that they are doing anything they can, it's just there are some unexpected problems. There are some rumors that either one of the camps is stalling but sadly, we cannot verify that information.

In my opinion maybe they are delaying the fight because they all know that what ever they do fans from the both fighter will want to see this big event by the two undefeated boxers. But for sure someday or somehow this fight will be open soon.  And if we talk about the tickets sell then for sure in just an days or a weak before it available to sell it will sold out. But what we must to do right now is that to wait until they announce a final decision about this fight.

Delaying the fight is not necessary anymore, as if this fight will not be sold out once it is announced. There are big reasons behind, it's probably not because they are not yet convince they can make the target revenue in this fight but most probably the terms on both teams are not yet meet.

I follow you with that. The terms and conditions still on the negotiations part both camps might have demands that they wanted
to settle before they will sign the contract.

Whatever it is only them knows, maybe it will be announced if they already done with the contract signing, for now it's just simply
a speculation, but no definite or concrete reasons.

Ticket sales are not a problem, as both fighters do have solid supporters to buy tickets and pay for PPV.

That is if there's indeed a fight that will happen soon, it's okay to be delayed, what's not okay is that the fact that we don't know anymore if this is going to happen because there are some rumors already that the fight is already almost impossible to happen as both camps haven't agreed on each other's terms.

if you buy at that price on January 2017, for sure you got rich at the end of the year, are you profit or regret it?
I heard about bitcoin in January 2019, At that time the price is about $4,000 I bought a bit, then sent it to my own wallet until June 2019 I sold it for $11,000. I still regret why I sold it. If I am enough patient until November 2021, I will be happier. this is my story when known bitcoin for the first time.

We don't know that because the OP just said that he heard it the first time way back 2017 and haven't said that the OP invested afterwards after learning the price was still a little over than $1000 but I surely hope so that he or she invested right after because that specific year was quite interesting. About me, I heard it first on 2017 too but that didn't get me interested and started investing last 2019.

Definitely some trouble brewing in the Warriors training camp.  Draymond Green and Jordan Poole had a fight yesterday because Jordan Poole scored on Draymond in a scrimmage and then called him a "triple single."  Meaning he doesn't get double digits in any stats during a game.  An interview with Klay Thompson after winning a 3 point contest (against Steph and Poole) had him saying the best part of the win was to "humble Jordan Poole."  When Jordan Poole then interrupted the interview with his own microphone, Klay said that Poole was coming for the reporters' jobs too.  I think it's pretty clear the Warriors are getting frustrated with the young guys wanting a piece of the pie.  I wouldn't be surprised if the Warriors signed Poole to an extension just to make him a more valuable trading piece.
What's with Poole lately? I think he's becoming boastful just because he's been reliable on his career last season? I think he should not be full of himself, he's just been used after all when Klay was still on his rehabilitation mode and now that he's fine, that definitely make more sense if a trade is at hand.
Woah, this is something new and I thought that there won't be any issue like this as it seems they have good chemistry in the team. Well, this isn't a good sign for the Warriors if one of them is acting like he's full of himself.

It's really looking like NBA will be another boring season if this is how it goes. Some teams have a huge cap problem, but they do not care and pay the luxury tax thanks to rich owners, and some teams do not even try to win, they just give up before the season starts.

So, we are going to watch maybe like 2-3 teams to win, and we are going to see the rest to be either tanking, or trying to stay in playoff spot, but not even have a contending chance. That's not going to cut it anymore, this needs to change, it has been like this nearly for 10 years, we really need teams that could rival each other, not move away from each other, it really sucks this way.

I think it's going to be a lot better than the years where Golden State had all of their current players including Kevin Durant, or when Lebron "took his talents to south beach" and he, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh all completely dominated.  At least we don't know for sure what teams is going to win, because for a while there we did and it was ruining the game of basketball.  At least for me anyhow.

I agree. The NBA was LeBron vs the Warriors for like half a decade. Before that it was a half decade of LeBron vs whoever gets out of the west. I have no idea who will be in the Finals this year, but I know there are a lot of teams like the Pelicans and the Bucks that have potential to create some matchup nightmares. Then there’s the Heat and Sixers who could stumble their way to the Finals. Out west is a little less competitive, but we need to see if PG and Kawhi are truly healthy and if the Lakers are back in championship form before handing the Warriors the ring.

That only shows how great LeBron James is on his prime years especially those time when he carried the Cleveland to the Finals, luckily the Warriors found the right players for the team and managed to match-up LeBron that's why most of the time, it's them against LeBron.

I agree with the Pelicans, Bucks and Sixers, and I heard that the Bucks is nearing to close the trade between the Jazz to get Jordan Clarkson, he will be a good additional from the bench. But Miami Heat? I know that they can get their way to the top but the problem with them is the consistency because eventually, Butler will end up carrying the team again.

Despite the recent downward trend, I am very optimistic about the future of crypto. There will be waves of people in and out of the market, but there is no doubt that cryptocurrencies will remain. I believe the most important thing you can do is invest in projects that solve problems and have a passionate team behind them. I think yes. stay calm and always keep the estimated investment if you have already bought at a high price whatever we hold now.

Right! And that's very normal to see people going in and out of the market, some managed just right while keeping themselves informed and knowledgeable about what's happening lately while some are not that lucky compared to the aforementioned people. Just be optimistic my friend as this is not the first time that the market is experiencing a downward trend nor the first time that many investors have sold their assets because of the said trend. Time will come that we will reap our fruits from our hard labor, just hodl!

Have you never thought about investing in SHIBA before SHIBA was famous as it is today? even investing $1 in SHIBA before SHIBA was popular as it is today can make you rich.
I think what I have said is very sufficient to answer your question  Roll Eyes

It's possible but investing on meme coins such as SHIBA is very risky thing to do and I personally don't recommend it as the said coin is mostly controlled by crypto whales, some investors have benefited from riding it but mostly, they lost. And as for the OP's question, it's hard to have that much profit if you are just relying on meme coins alone and there's a lot of other coins on the market that could give you that profit you mentioned.

If ever Bivol wins this fight, I do not think that his priority is Canelo.  I think Bivol is eyeing title fights so possibly Artur Beterbiev.
No way, challenging Beterbiev is just make Bivol career will end since Beterbiev might become the winner. So it doesn't make sense for Canelo challenging Bivol anymore, there's no belt on their fight. Bivol vs Beterbiev will become a big match since both of them are the only have belts on light heavyweight division, rematch may possible to happen too. I don't see many good boxers on light heavyweight division.

We can't say that yet until they both share a ring but you're also right, Beterbiev is indeed a difficult boxer to crack and there's a very high chance that if you'll get caught in his punches, that'll be the end of you and take note, Beterbiev won all his fights by a KO or TKO. Anyway, that is if Bivol can defeat Ramirez and I think it's too early for that kind of discussion.

Currently, only Bivol, Ramirez and Beterbiev managed to keep their records undefeated in the light-heavyweight division. But there's this English boxer named Callum Smith who's standing next in rank of the three aforementioned boxers and he's much more taller than Ramirez. He is also a former WBA champion in super-middle but he was defeated by Canelo Alvarez and climbed the next division right after that fight.
