At least in this case it can be used even if it's a little, Ugas is a strong fighter with complex abilities, But Spence is more than imagined.
Lowering your concentration against such a great boxer is a stupid thing to do and here of course Ugas and Spence won't do that.
Now is the proof that must be done so that when the match is over there will be no regrets
As a boxing fan then we would be wishing to see a good fight on where both boxers do giving out their best of their performance and we know that in every sport there would be only 1 winner unless if there would be

some draw which is really unlikely to happen most of the time.Spence is hard to be beaten up and some do even conclude already just because of some triangle kind of analysis which it isnt accurate most of the time.

We dont know on what are their preparations behind whether it would be effective against their current opponent or not.
Of course in a fight there must be one person who has to be the winner because it will not be fun if the fight goes with a draw in it and this will not benefit the fighters.
Spence is one of the strongest boxers right now but as you said, Strength alone is not enough because there has to be a good Strategy in it too.
Both boxers definitely have their own Strategy and we won't know until we can see their fight
Everything would be settled inside the ring as always and the best boxer would really end up on winning the fight.Some do even say that Ugas was underrated too
and slowly up gaining some noise on boxing industry and it all started when he do able to beat Pacquiao which is a huge stepping stone for him to be recognized.
Some people or boxing fans had been also anticipating for some another upset on this fight.

Upset will not happen anymore unless Spence would have trouble in the ring as Pacman had during their fight with Ugas. however, I think it will only happen on rare occasions so I still believe that the better fighter will win and that is Spence. Ugas has to prepare harder because he cannot use his lenght against Spence who is very aggressive and have power in both hands.

Ask yourself why you are investing__this is the first question you need to ask yourself before investing, many  investors are interested in investing in cryptocurrency because of cryptocurrency’s trendiness, the benefits, and because they are  decentralized network and so on. many investors have different reasons why they invest and what there goals, target, achievement is all about. So therefore you must have a reason why you are interested in investing.

This is what gives me more interest - and yes, it was an absolute need for us to know ourselves if we are ready for this or not. Coz we can't just slip on the thing we don't know yet and much more if we don't have the interest. We always have to know the reason and the being committed to it otherwise we just end up failing.

*it is always in a process and we have to start from the very first step
*Must have to trust ourselves
* of course, we already have the idea of what coin/s we invest and the exchanges to use so our time is focused on them.

I guess the car crash is really eye opener for him, or maybe it just really hardened him up because if he can beat that car crash and come back in boxing and win against one of the toughest fighter in that division (Shawn Porter), then he has the confidence that he can beat everyone else even Manny although he just to beat another injury (eye). Now he is going to face Ugas. And we see him as the favorite again, so he will do everything to continue his undefeated record and then look for the biggest fight in the division next.
Spence easily recovers from an injury because he was a tough fighter, and he is still young so the recovery is faster. If he beat Porter in his return, there's no reason he cannot beat Ugas who lose to Porter in their fight, we can check the record of Ugas, Porter was one of the 4 fighters that beat him.
2344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: March 10, 2022, 01:51:15 PM

So do I, we already know that Casimero is excited to face Butler next month and he is really preparing about it that's why we are not seeing any movements or updates about Casimero now. As for Butler, I hope he will meet our expectations, I mean, that he will also give a good entertaining fight towards Casimero and to the fans, a toe-to-toe fight and continuously exchanging blows would be really good.

I also wanted to see Butler fighting toe to toe against Casimero, for sure. If not all the fans, most of us wanted to see actions

from both fighters, though strategy might be there and observing before going all in, maybe in the first few rounds. But then,

a close exchanging of punches will excite viewers and who will ever win this fight will received attentions and hypes from his

name aside from the belt that he will carry.

We should expect that as Butler is known to be an aggressive fighter, he does not run like Rigo so this one should be an exciting fight. Of course, Casimero like an aggressive fighter as his counter punch will be just waiting for the best timing to knock out an opponent.
2345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: March 09, 2022, 11:25:15 AM

Butler on the other hand did the right decision to wait for Casimero for another couple of months, I guess Butler really want to prove something on Casimero or he was just after the belt after all.
Both, he wants to win to get the belt, otherwise, he would just fight the replacement but he won't benefit since there's no belt in a certain fight. Now is his chance, it doesn't matter if it's delayed, as long as he will continue his training and do the right strategy in the fight, he certainly has a decent chance to win.

Kidding aside, the spread is just too high for Magnolia to cover, and since the hotshots are already assured of a twice-to-beat advantage, they may be complacent in this game, and though they will win but will not cover the spread IMO.

Bossings +15.5 @1.90 vs Hotshots, who have the guts to bet on Blackwater other than me?  Grin

That's possible and might be we could see an early garbage time if the Magnolia is lead is high. That's the time BlackWater will make a run since that's their final game so they will just do their best. Like to do it on Live Betting. I like to see Magnolia pinning down BlackWater at 25+ first to make an increase of odds and adjustment on the handicap in favor for the Blackwater.

I hope that will happen in the halftime. Or in the early minutes of the 3Q.

Then take the risks. Cheesy

Looks like Miracle is going to happen tonight, the first half is over and Blackwater has the lead.

Score is 48-45, it's a low-scoring game, so even if Magnolia will win, the chance of covering the +15.5 is very high.
I hope bisdak40 also bet on the moneyline, I'm sure the odds is high.
2347  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Share your costly lesson about cryptocurrency.. on: March 08, 2022, 11:48:28 AM
I can't remember the exact date but that was 2016 when I was new in crypto and I admit I have no deep knowledge about trading.
I spend $1000 as my trading capital and I use it to buy cheap coins as I think that I can double/triple my funds once it pumps just like what I saw to other coins. I get millions of shitcoins that time, I hold it until today but to guess what, I was just holding for nothing and not even seeing my coins listed to other exchanges aside in Etherdelta where I bought it there. Now that Etherdelta is not active anymore, I certainly don't have any chance to sell them. I'd lost them all because of being greedy and this kind of behavior must have to change.

In addition to the above replies...

1. Have self-confidence
2. Think first before deciding
3. Keep learning (stop relying on others)

It is all about building your knowledge and skills in order for us to have the advantage. We can't simply underestimate the market volatility and so preparing ourselves for it is very important. Many had to take it for granted and no wonder why they lose.
2349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: March 07, 2022, 01:28:07 PM

Magnolia Hotshots Pambansang Manok is still the hardest team to beat for me, that is because they have good chemistry and their import is very comfortable playing with the system of Magnolia.

They also have fresh and primes legs, players are still young and can really run much longer, Magnolia gained more confidence after that final birth last season, they continue to play as a whole, they are not relying to anyone but with the system that they are using. As a viewer, you would love to see how they play the game. Both defense and offense are organized.

The very reason why they are still on top and they really giving a hard day to every opponent that they met.

Imagine if they complete the rally against Batang Pier, that's a close game coming from a huge gap. Roll Eyes Cool
That's their only loss, maybe they are already tired for the winning streak by that time.
Magnolia is indeed the team to beat here, hoping that they will maintain their position until the final because this is still basketball and everything is possible to happen better for them not to be complacent and continue to play their system, because its working for them very well.
I'm confident that they'll be in the Finals, I'm not sure who they are going to play against with, but if it will be Ginebra, it would be better to witness this 2 strong teams playing for the best of 7 games. The good thing with Magnolia is that their locals are contributing very well, they have a capable import but they don't rely to him so much and the coaching staff has been effectively managing the minutes of every players.

You have to understand that he is still a rookie, and therefore he is bound to make mistakes and this first season is his learning experience. He should be better in the next season if the Rockets would still give him a chance to play more minutes. Green maybe not delivering our expectation, first the favorite in the dunk contest, and he lose, and it looks like he would also not gonna win the ROY.
Yes, I agree. Green has a lot of room for improving and he is just starting that. Gaining experience and soon the consistency will be there.
Rockets is actually a strong team but they are young, prone to mistakes and bad choices during game time. I wish Rockets management will build on their trio, KPJ, Sengun, and Green. Let them have their chemistry and not trade them for anyone.
That lineup is not enough to be a championship team, or a playoff team, just my personal opinion though, but I think they need a real all star to join them and lead the team. This team is used to be a good team, they had Harden, it was a playoff team but later Harden was traded, and WB as well.

So not much expectation for the team now, but let's see how the management will experiment to improve the team next season.

Don't make a quick judgment yet, who knows, they might surprise us and be in the playoffs next season, at least getting in the playoffs is already a big success of this team that does not have many high-paid players. If there's still room for their salary cap, maybe they can just add some players without letting go of the role players of the team and the starters.

Personally I also don't think that the Rockets will improve under the current lineup, they need to add or let go of some players if they want to improve. They have the whole season already and they are at the bottom now in the West with 16 wins and 48 loses, so it's hard to expect a sudden big improvement in the next season.
2351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: March 07, 2022, 11:20:56 AM
But we already know that Ugas isn't an easy opponent to deal with and he have a history of upsetting fights, just like what he did to Manny Pacquiao.
But with a different opponents, the outcome could be different.

Of the 4 losses of Ugas, we have a boxer "Shawn Porter" who already fought with Spence and Spence beat him, so it should not be hard for Spence to beat a fighter that was beaten by the fighter he also beat.

The war could happen for different reasons. Most of the time war happen out of border conflicts. This time the war is happening to show power to the world.

Who benefits out of the war? it is always the country that manufactures weapons and necessary things for armed forces. Whenever there happens a war, each country will be backed by more other countries. Same as that this time Ukraine have got good support, and Russia is almost left alone. If I'm not wrong this time the war is made more sensible with the digital attack than armed forces.

Russia received sanctioned from different countries but still pushing forward.

While Ukraine continues getting worse damages, even the support is there, but protecting their homelands is far different,
they are suffering and if this war will continue for much longer time, they will collapse. No one wins aside from those who
manufactured weapons sad but more sufferings for people who only hope to live peacefully.
Russia really prepared all of this before they invaded Ukraine,
so that we can see for ourselves that when many countries in the world impose sanctions on Russia it is not a big problem that can hinder them from carrying out this invasion,
I hope that elite people from both sides can have diplomacy and end this war because after all, humanity is above all else
Because Russia knows that Ukraine was just easy for them to win and that is why they still moving in despite the sanctions. If Russia won't stop and won't listen to the other leaders, I don't know what will happen to Ukraine and to their economy. I was expecting an absolute distraction if ever they push it. As this war has no good results, in the end, it only creates anger and hatred. I will think that the next generation will do the same if their issue won't resolve.
2353  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Scalpers and day traders - Never lie, be realistic. on: March 06, 2022, 11:42:26 PM
I stay where I'm comfortable with. I use the scalping strategy for almost 3 years and I am really in profit but can't just deny that I lose also sometimes ( kinda be a normal thing). But yes, this is never been easy as we need to analyze the market so well, and spending more time on the market watching the trend where it goes gives us the idea of when to sell and when to buy. And aside from that, we have to learn how to be more patient and take control of our emotions because no matter how good we are in analyzing the market it still ruins if we got lose our emotions.

Ginebra -4.5 @1.86 vs ROS, must-win for the Kings so i think they will work hard for this one though this looks like a very risky bet for me because Ginebra is so erratic right now.

A must win game but a hard one for sure, ROS is still a good team despite of their current standing they will surely not let Ginebra to win easily.
They have a good lead now, Ginebra will take this win but not sure if they'll be able to cover the spread. We are now in the 3rd quarter and ROS reduce the lead into single digit, hopefully, Ginebra will hold on and will win this game.

ROS did come back but still Ginebra takes the lead with 6 points now in less than 5 minutes in the 4th quarter. The crowd is there for Ginebra, this is an exciting game, looks like Ginebra is going to win but the game is not over yet, so let's find out.
2355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: March 06, 2022, 11:48:40 AM
Is that sealed already? I mean Crawford vs Thurman fight? Never saw any articles though, so I'm thinking this could be just an speculation although chances are high since Thurman just won against Barrios.
Yeah it's still a speculations and no official agreement, Thurman also want to fight with Crawford...so it may likely happen https://box.live/fights/crawford-vs-thurman/

So there is plenty of money for this fight, so Spence should not stay away from fighting Crawford. Both of them are way over 30 years old so just about time that they should look for their future without boxing. So make the most money and this is the biggest paycheck for them for sure. They can split the purse 50-50 simply as that.
It's true there's a good prize if Spence vs Crawford happen, but it just one time huge paycheck... the one who lose will ruin his reputation and popularity. This will make they can't earn more money in the long term, so Spence is play safe here. The highest upset on previous year between Lopez vs Kambosos, Lopez lose all his belts and there's no fight until now.

we need to see first this spence jr vs ugas match first. and maybe, this spence vs crawford is up next. that is, if their respective promoters will agree with the purse split. remember, mayweather vs pacquiao before. their promoters couldnt agree the purse split for their fighters, hence, got it delayed so many times.
with spence jr vs crawford, same thing may possibly happen. if spence will beat ugas, then he should go for crawford next.

Crawford promotes himself now, Spence if I remember it right, is under Al Haymon. So that fight can be made because there's no more promotional hindrance on the side of Crawford. But there are a lot of things to settle because this is a mega-fight, specially the money between the two fighter. Most of the time this is the biggest issue, but hopefully Crawford regardless of what is he is getting, is willing to fight Spence Jr.



50-50 is a good share as they are both champions. Before, we were thinking that Top Rank does not want Crawford to fight Spence, now that Crawford is promoting himself, there's no more excuse, and if both fighters are willing to risk their undefeated record, they should give the best fight for the fans.
2356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: March 06, 2022, 11:21:02 AM
LOL, Keith Thurman? no way that Donaire is going to face a big guy at 147 lbs, so 100% this is not true mate, I don't know where you get your sources.

What we want for Casimero is Inoue, I doubt that him and Donaire will face each other since they are now on the same promotional company and seems to patch up things already.
I search "Donaire vs Thurman" on google and I don't find any single source mentioned that's rumor, pretty sure he's either confuse some divisions or mentioned wrong name. Yeah, if two boxer with same national fight each other, it doesn't have a lot hype and popular. I thought this fight already ended, but checked the date it will happen on the next month lol. I'd interested to see Casimero fight with Inoue rather than the rematch Donaire vs Inoue.

I also did the same thing, I searched them and it showed no match but instead I did discover that Keith's future opponent will be Errol Spence or Terence Crawford however it is still not clear because Crawford is also planning to climb another division.
Yes it's not that also exciting if indeed a fight of Casimero against Donaire will happen as they have the same nationality, it's much better if it is Casimer vs Inoue.

Keith Thurman vs Crawford or Spence, I think that's a great fight and fans would love to witness that. Keith already had an impressive win, now it's time for Spence and Crawford to win their respective fights and we will see the next big fight to happen.

If Crawford vs Spence will fight, then Keith will be sideline.

Ginebra lost to NLEX.

I'm happy I did not follow my heart, instead I go with who is the better team on record, and I was right.



Hope you guys also have won your bet tonight.
This conference is really not for Ginebra, the lead is not that small and NLEX really did a great job today.
Its good that you follow the numbers instead of your emotion, I do love Ginebra as well but this game is really not for them.
NLEX now enjoys a sure twice to beat advantage, if they face the lower teams most probably NLEX will win, so let's see.

Not for SMB either, it's for the NLEX, Magnolia and Meralco, they are the top teams and the most consistent in the PBA. Brownlee is still good but Ginebra was never the same when they traded Gregzilla for C. Stand, REAL TALK.
2359  Economy / Economics / Re: What if Russia economy grows higher after the war on: March 03, 2022, 11:51:51 PM
What will happen if at the end Russia succeed in her conquest against Ukraine and take over the economy of Ukraine. That will extend the economic power of Russia no doubt and that will make Russia more powerful.

How will EU and NATO countries relate with Russia if that happens ?
It is literally a sort of economic interest that brought to something more agressive and even caused a war.
This war will obviously have losing results in both parties but to see it that Ukraine had suffered most and it makes them hard to recover fast than Russia.

Quote
and that will make Russia more powerful.
Russia is powerful already even before and they protect that power no matter how much it cost, even the lives of their people. And this Ukraine supposedly lives happy and free from the war if they stay neutral (my opinion).
2360  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: March 03, 2022, 01:42:24 PM
For Ugas, it will be a big challenge. Spence is known to throw aggressive punches and since he's big, the cover or defense of Ugas can collapse

and he can overpower him. It would be a great adjustment for Ugas to solidify both his defense and his counterattacks,

it will be a good toe to toe face-off between these two champs.

A winner takes all fight, and the chance to call for Crawford and collect all the belt in this division.
Ugas will be the standing at the end of this fight, that I'm sure of, didn't he defeat Pacquiao? And I think that it's a big win even though Pacquiao is old in terms of boxing but it's a feat nonetheless. I think that Ugas's toughness will play a big role in this match. Pretty exciting match and I hope to get in on the action and able to have some money to place bets.

As Ugas wants to prove something inside the ring, after his win over Pacquiao, more than likely, he's in hard training for this upcoming fight.
We all know that Spence Jr will be the favorite here. And that will add more challenge for Ugas to be well-prepared for this.
If this will be another upset, definitely, it will open more doors for him. So Spence Jr should not reckon this as easy fight.
This fight is indeed an interesting one as we will see a possible toe-to-toe performance of Spence Jr and Ugas.

He is brave enough to face a champion again, that's the kind of boxer I like, unlike those champion who are undefeated but doesn't want to face the best in their division, I know you know who I'm referring, so this one is a treat for the boxing fans as it does not happen all the time.
