Yoel Romero is far from finishing his MMA carrier judging by his last brutal KO win against Melvin Manhoef, and he made it look so easy. In few months he is going to have 46 years and he can maybe go for another try on light-heavyweight category title belt. You can watch all prelim fights from Bellator 285 for free on their youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iATRr-SEJvAThis goes to show even if he is in his 45 years of age he can surely still fight and while barking at the camera, after his loss to Phil Davis in his 1st match on Bellator he retaliates with a win against Alex Polizzi, with a punches and now Melvin Manhoef with an elbow from the mount, it goes to show despite his age he can still Knock out dudes in a braking fashion way, Yoel Romero is far from finishing his MMA carrier judging by his last brutal KO win against Melvin Manhoef, and he made it look so easy.
In few months he is going to have 46 years and he can maybe go for another try on light-heavyweight category title belt. Yoel Romero is a real genetic freak of nature and no one i know will be looking like him at 46 years old and still fight at the highest level and this was a predictable result against Melvin Manhoef who is fighting his last bout but the upset for me in this card was Mads Burnell as i expected him to win and was a heavy favorite and still Pedro Carvalho fought his way to victory and messed my parlay. Well, Israel Adesanya fought a hard fight against this dude, I think Robert Whittaker and Paulo Costa as well that the fight have become a decision lost to Yoel Romero that is how a freak of nature deal inside the ring, before ending up in Bellator that is how durable this fighter can be, giving the fight to Izzy, and even if Izzy has won Yoel Romero thinks he is the dominating fighter, that he has said that Israel Adesanya just runs inside the cage, I really don't know on what age he would still go until he retires but I think maybe 48? but that will be a tough one for him, |

I was once got hooked in a game that has Gacha in it. And it is really hard to get the premium item, mostly you get trash items that has no value in-game at all.
Every Gacha game will be pretty much hard to get those premium items and even heroes, well some will surely need special coins to be unlucky and needs a further amount of money to get, too have become addicted to wasting money because of the good rewards that have promised to be given but apparently those Items even if you have paid for the said diamonds you will need to play in on Gacha get, that is the most frustrating part in Gacha games you will expect something but that will not be given eventually, This is the only bummer regarding Gacha games but if you are enjoying playing it then I think it is OK as long as you are enjoying it you will really never care if the game is already scamming you without you even realizing it, |

Chelsea team as individual players are good very good but when you put them together as a team they are not very good. That is to show that Chelsea problem can be coaching problem. Tuchel got it wrong because some few players that understood his type of play left the team. It was as if his defence line was just new and they didn't adapt so fast to his pattern of play. I wish that same thing will not happen to Graham Potter.
Well, you already know in the world of football everything can sure happen, and if the coach is not competitive enough pretty much they can easily change them so Graham Potter is not safe, but in actuality, no one is really safe, and apparently Chelsea is in a bad spot right now in Group E with 0 Win, 1 Draw and 1 Lost that is why it is not looking good at all, I don't think he was wrong, because Tuchel's work was good, but we all know that when a technical director no longer gives results, it is obvious that he is replaced, but I think that one of the things that we sometimes do not appreciate is good work of what some have done, then it's time to change phase, and they achieve that through a technical director. Here is one of the stories that can continue to push Chelsea forward, will it be the solution? The genius tells him: Graham Potter's tactical genius and how it can benefit Chelsea in crunch Premier League matches Graham Potter's Brighton & Hove Albion side produced a wonderful performance against Manchester United on the opening weekend of the season Source: https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/graham-potter-chelsea-premier-league-24984962Well now it's time to wait and see how everything continues to develop. In actuality, Matchday 3 is coming for UEFA Championship and Chelsea is just starting their retaliation that article has suggested how a genius Graham Potter is then I will surely grab my popcorn and watch how Chelsea unfold a next-level play in actuality I am looking forward to Chelsea to take over Group E and on October 6 match up Chelsea will be against Milan we can surely test what a good coach Graham Potter is, October 4 we will start again with the Champions League. At Ajax - Napoli in group A, Napoli can deal a huge blow if they manage to win. In that case, it seems to me already decided that Liverpool and Napoli will advance to the next round. All eyes will be on the clash between Inter Milan and Barcelona that week. Before the season I would say Inter are a better team, but now I think Barcelona have the better cards. However, it is also possible that Barcelona does not reach its level, as we have seen a few times last year and Barcelona did not manage to get through the group stage in the CL. I'm looking forward to this game but I think Barcelona will win it.
October 5 will likely be the start of matchday 3 but apparently, I think he has a different timeline hence the different date we have, In 1st game the leader of Group C Bayern Munich I think will have an easy win over Viktoria Plzen, Sporting against Marseille, that I think Sporting could win, Leverkusen might have a shot on Porto, because Leverkusen is a screwed team right now on the Bundesliga, Frankfurt against Tottenham, which Tottenham could win, but still, Frankfurt can have a special thing and could win against Tottenham, Barcelona with Lewandowski could have a high chance against Inter, and Liverpool against Rangers, that for me I think I will go with Liverpool, |

I sure have become addicted to some Gacha games and in the past, I have played a series of games that need Gacha real money to get what kind of item, hero, or secret something that you want, and that includes a huge amount of RNG kind of slot or wheel that you will need to play with real money or game money and will be in random order, for me it is very hard to win you don't put a lot of money in the game, that is why I call this time of games as pay to win, some game that I play and here is the list, - Dragon Nest
- Digimon Links
- Kings Raid
- Kingdom Wars
- Marvel Future Fights

I agree, Manny always gives funds to charity via his own pocket. Often times he offers help and does not need to ask someone for funding, unlike those media company who always ask for a donation and claim the charity donations as theirs.
But of course, it is always better to have funding outside the riches we have and I think Manny also thinks the same. The exhibition match doesn't only give him the opportunity to showcase his skills, entertain his fans, and play the sports he is always fond of, but he can also gather extra funding for his charity projects. It is like hitting multiple birds in one stone.
That means he doesn't want to give his own money that he has now, but rather getting money on an exhibition is viable, but let's not really get the wrong idea for Manny Pacquaio as I am saying can always do the charity work even without those fights, but just like you have said that I surely agree because Manny Pacquiao still want to fight inside the ring and do Charity at the same time and as you have said hitting multiple birds at the same time, But Moving on Manny Pacquiao will have his 1st fight in December and it is against DK Yoo, and if you have watched DK Yoo fight in an Exhibition match against Bradley Scott we can see that DK Yoo doesn't really have experience in a real fight and all of what he is doing are just for show, he is a complete amateur in boxing, and Pacman Agaisnt DK Yoo will be a very fast fight, but for Jaber Zayani that will surely not treat this as an Exhibition fight but rather a true boxing fight, I think Pacquiao will be having a hard time with Zayani, but knowing Pacman, then he will not be merciful,
The election's done and that's why he's up for matches again. I don't think it's a good capitalization if he's going to do it for that agenda and he's lost already and accepted that he can reach that ambition.
That's why, he's choosing where he's better and where people love him more.
Maybe, about the recovery of some expenditures. There's a likely that he's trying to do that because of how huge his campaign funds was used and it's part of his entire wealth.
Well maybe you are right and the number of recovered will surely increase and likely a respect for people that are making bad reputation for themselves, and I think that I can put this together so I have exhibited |

Yes, that Sadio Mane has problems adapting to Bayern Munich, that Liverpool now have some problems with results without Sadio Mane. Undoubtedly, in the previous case, both the team and the player got used to each other perfectly and it will take some time for Mane to be able to integrate into a new mechanism for himself with the same efficiency as it happened in England and Liverpool and Bayern with its class of players gives hope that it will not take much time. Let's not forget that Bayern also have some problems with the results after Robert Lewandowski's departure, so this is a mutual process. When all this happens, we will again see that car that no one is able to stop, at least in Germany.
Yup! both Bayern and Liverpool will surely have problems in dealing with integrating their play for Bayern Munich without Robert Lewandowski but with Sadio Mane, and Liverpool without Sadio Mane, and this could surely take some time, many think that Sadio Mane has already coup up to the teams gameplay, but on the following games both are showing problems and not only Sadio Mane but the whole team are having troubles in getting their play on the go because Sadio Mane right now is very prone to mistakes, To be honest in this case Nagelsmann is still good enough for a coach but the scheme he plays is always the same and it is clear when he has met many times and has experienced this the other team will get a glimmer of hope because his scheme has been read and it has been proven in the last few matches.
If indeed he still wants to be at Bayern he obviously needs more effort in this regard because otherwise the word "failed coach" will be repeated and he will have to leave even before his contract expires.
He surely is a good coach, but if his play tactics don't work anymore then he surely needs to change it and let the team play at their own position that they are used to playing, you can not force Sadio Mane into a position that he is not very familiar with, it works on the 1st game, then why isn't working on the later games, I think Nagelsmann is questioning Sadio Mane this, but Sadio Mane has a tendency that he of making mistakes when he is not very familiar with his plays,
I would not say that Nagels is incompetent. In this case, he doesn't put the players and what the players want. as with what you said, after all Nagels is the boss at bayern munich.
like it or not, the players must be able to professionally follow Nagelsmann's instructions. and if the strategy doesn't go according to plan, I think Nagels has figured out what the squad is missing.
After all, this difficult situation is the first situation for Nagelsmann during his tenure in charge of Bayern Munich, for the past year.
As for Sadio Mane, no one doubts Mane on the pitch. he is one of the top players who is shining, but his presence in the Die Bayern squad has not been able to show a brilliant performance.
Well maybe he is not incompetent but forcing a player to do his bidding but with no effectiveness, I really think that the team itself has a problem as well and not because of getting outclass by their opponent, |

As for Kevin Holland, you never really know what's going on with him, since he loves to troll the fans, and the fighters he fights. I don't think he'll be retiring, unless he's got a contract for boxing, since I wouldn't have thought he's made enough money in his career to retire just yet, when arguably bigger named fighters than him, with longer careers are complaining about the money they make, and basically being homeless in some cases.
I believe Chimaev claimed that or something along those lines, I know he lived in the gym that he was training at. So, no I don't believe Holland when he says he's retiring. Although, maybe he got a little extra on the side for accepting the fight against Chimaev, and basically keeping the event alive.
He might just be trolling the UFC and Dana White for not having the fight he wants, and we all know that Kevin Holland accepts the fight that he doesn't have the preparation for and gives the UFC the fight that they want, him against Chimaev, but Dana White doesn't want to give him what he wants and I don't know if Daniel Rodriguez or Neil Magny, but either on these fighters he wants to fight, After reading an article I couldn't believe that he wants to retire early but after looking at his Instagram post I think he wants to say something, that this is all set up for the UFC to listen to him,
Everybody is searching for new careers nowadays but combat sports from Floyd's exhibition spree. Like Nate wanting to fight with Jake Paul. Everybody's turning to exhibitions like Anderson vs Fedor Emelianenko.
Holland retirement is too early for his career, he can do a lot in sports so he might be famous for short-term notice. If Dana White needs someone to fight that very moment, he can call Kevin.
Kevin Holland might want bigger money on this but I don't really know if that retirement was just a stunt, so the UFC or Dana White will see it, I surely don't want to believe it, but again he has made a solid statement he might want to change career or even fight on an exhibition match with a high payment exhibition match, or this is just a set up so the UFC or Dana White could see it, and pretty much his fans were upset hearing this, |

Thanks to both of you this thread are striving and alive, we also have padamar and virasisog sometimes are here to give their opinion, I will surely listen to all of your suggestions but it is still my decision on what to do in this thread, and for that, I will not lock this thread anymore it will continue until we have many members here in the thread that would be interested with other WNBA, because right now I have already loved the game just like how I love every game with the NBA,
Well, I think it is very convenient to have a single thread for both Discussion and betting and because we don't have many users here I think it is enough even if there are 100 users in this thread (wishful thinking) I will still consider one thread for the discussion and betting for WNBA, just like with the UFC both Discussion and betting are one thread,
Oh, Goodluck with your headache, gotta drink medicine if you can not tolerate the pain anymore, maybe it is because of the changing weather, that quite a headache are very common nowadays,

I was actually hoping this thread to be like the NBA thread and that the discussion will continue through to the next season, but since you like to add polls, it seems to be better that way. It will be an all-in-one thread where you can see bets, discussions, and pulse through polls.
Well, I was also thinking that this thread just might have 5 to 6 people that have posted and recently just the 4 of us are liked totally coming back and forth to this thread, and because there are not so many people that want to discuss WNBA I think I will not lock it anymore and continue as it is until the next season because I think I will not get much on the polls but maybe in the future I can upgrade this thread, but for the time being I think I will just let it stay for further discussion on some news, updates, drafts, trade, and whatever we can discuss as long as it is WNBA,
Well, you can't blame them if they want Brittney Griner back on US soil. Though he committed a crime in Russia, she is their people, and they want her back. She can continue her jail time in US.
But I doubt Putin will give in. I think Russians are very strict and probably will not allow Griner to continue her jail time anywhere else.
For me, I think she can be swapped as long as she will still serve jail time in the US because she had done something illegal to be jailed there so I don't think it is great that she will be just released if got swapped by the most heinous criminals history or America has ever detained, and I think we had the same thought about it, And you are right Putin will surely don't let that happen and Brittney Griner needs to serve 9 years in prison in Russia, this is what she gets in violating the law and have illegally gets something illegal to that country, |

At the start of the competition, Sadio Mane really managed to captivate the day of the Die Bayern fans. he can adapt quickly at the beginning of the season, but as the competition progresses. Sadio Mane, has difficulty adapting to the many changes in strategy and rotations made by Nagels. as a result in the last few matches, Mane did not contribute to scoring goals.
no doubt Nagel often uses Mane as a Finisher to replace Lewandowski's role, but it seems that Mane does not fit the position that Nagels wants. so Nagel had to rack his brain to change his strategy when playing his matches.
As a result, Bayern can't play at their best.
This goes to show how incompetent Nagelsmann is he doesn't really care about the players and what they think, and what they are capable of doing, not all players will surely adapt that fast to all of his strategies especially those not as skillful as Robert Lewandowski, yes Sadio Mane has the talent but he can not do all of it, he needs to adjust slowly, and he just recently arrives at Bayern Munich so he has a lot of adjusting to do and he can not properly do that in a small period of time,
I can't say Sadio Mane is a flop now, but he still hasn't found the game he's used to playing like at Liverpool. Bayern Munich still haven't found the chemistry between their new signings. I think he still needs time for that, to get the best out of him. Even though it takes time, I'm sure Mane can show something that is his strength. The league has only started a few weeks, it's not as expected but we have to be a little patient to see Mane.
This is pretty much the fact about Sadio Mane he surely needed more time in couping up to the strategies Nagelsmann has told him, and pretty much he is still not ready for that change, in position, play, and the whole chemistry thing, but for sure at the 1st day he surely wants to have a 1st impression to the Bayern fans, so he surely did a great performance on a low performed team and he quite got a spectacle and everyone thought that this is how Sadio Mane is playing but in fact, it backfires at him, because in the later runs, he isn't quite the guy on the 1st day of this season of the Bundesliga, but I think he just needs some time to adjust, |

Manny Pacquiao was age 16 when he started fighting inside the ring with adult boxers, but back then the age limit was very strict so he used fake age when he fights inside the ring, they say that he is already willing to fight a guy with 10 years gap to him, but you can never be young or old to get what you wanted, or to be who you wanted to be, It just that in a young age he is early to look for things that could make him money for his family,
LOL I didn't know about this but I just wrote that the same thing happened with Mike Tyson  Well pretty much boxers are getting younger these days, they need to lie about their age to get a professional license, If you have watched the documentary about Manny Pacquaio you will know what hardship he faced in order to get what he attained now,
And because of the success of the later Contender Series, I really want to see some action and because fighters here are desperate in getting a contract with the UFC Contender Series 2022: Week 10Tuesday 09.27.2022 Venue: UFC APEX  Middleweight: Bo Nickal VS Donovan Beard Lightweight: Sam Patterson VS Vinicius Cenci Featherweight: Freddy Emiliano Linares VS Jack Jenkins Flyweight: Rafael Ramos Estevam VS João Elias Bantamweight: Ashiek Ajim VS Mateus Mendonça All information was from TAPOLOGY |

Somehow I think Adesanya and Pereira fight is not going to go full distance. Probably it will last for 1 or 2 rounds only. Reason - I think Pereira is not quite ready for MMA fights, I think he has not much experience of how much strength and stamina fighting at the fence or on the ground take and how much should be saved. Cant explain why, but I think Pereira is going to rush in this fight.
For me, it will go the distance and it is a win for Israel Adesanya, I know Adesanya is quite cocky and nobody likes his fighting style but apparently, this will surely be saving his skin, for me, I think that Izzy has already learned from that Jan Blachowicz fight, and that he can sure win this match if the fight go the distance, and a definitely for me Izzy might take the high attitude but he would surely have a hard time on this and it will be going to be an easy fight.
Experience-wise, I agree, Adesanya has the upper hand. But as notblox1 said, the cockiness might get the better of him. That is a chance Pereira should take like how Weidman defeated the Spider Silva because of playing too much in the octagon. Being a champion for long has that weakness of overconfidence while the opponent is hungry to snatch the belt from him.
Both are standing-style fighters, take down defense is high. Will Pereira try to mix it up by training for a takedown and play it on the mat or will he just try the same kickboxing style?
I think Pereira will still go for the old approach the one that ends up with Israel Adesanya in their kickboxing match and this kind of punch was the one that is haunting Adesanya, but if Alex Pereira would have trained for a takedown and wrestling then for me I would definitely go with Alex Pereira, but it can not happen in a short moment of time, and if Israel Adesanya would not let his emotion surpasses him then he might lose this, but I am still going with Izzy here,
And just in Kevin Holland retires??? from sports and searched for a new career and posted on his Instagram and shockingly retired before hitting 30 years old, but before this, he is talking about being a champion and correcting all the mistakes he is been doing inside the octagon and now he is then retiring but I think he is asking something from the UFC and he doesn't get it, because he posted a Daniel Rodriguez VS Neil Magny fight that is happening October 15, I think he might be asking for a Niel Magny fight, but I guess Li Jingliang should also be upset in this fight aswell because he didn't get that rematch he deserves, for me, Li Jingliang was the one constantly screwed here, |

That is actually my first reaction when I heard on the news that Manny Pacquiao is in negotiation for an exhibition match. I thought if he lost a lot of money in the election campaign he needs to fight again. I hope it is not because he is already a millionaire, and he does not need to fight just for money. If it is for charity like everyone is saying above, then I guess it is for a good cause. I think there are still a lot of fans who want to watch Manny fight even just to see a glimpse of his previous glory.
Well, he doesn't really need the money from those Exhibition matches but if it goes to charity then I will be truly delighted Manny Pacquiao really doesn't need to fight anymore he can give to charity because right now he got a lot of business, a gym, tv commercials, Guesting, even an internet sensation, he can do anything because of his fame, but surely I think he missed the way he goes on the ring so much that is why he allowed this exhibition matches, Oh well, it just shows Mayweather is not after the legacy or what not. He is definitely after the money, and he can't blame him, up to this day he can still better performance because throughout his career, he wasn't hit like other boxers and that's why you will hear him saying, health comes first.
So he can have as many exhibitions fight as he wanted, make millions out of it in matter of minutes and then go to the bank laughing when cashing it out. But I guess he will not get the respect of some old and former boxers.
He surely only wants the money and you can surely see it in his name his nickname was literally money, well I think he surely wants to go in his own path and that is to be healthy for more Exhibition fight for the money, that is why he is saying that his health comes 1st, and that is why he doesn't want to fight in one of the official fights anymore and only wants to fight with exhibition matches because he is pretty much safer with those matches than fighting on official match ups, that could ruin his heath and his target is to keep on fighting exhibition matches until he can not anymore, |

And because the WNBA is already over, I am now waiting for the NBA to start but I am thinking of locking this thread and making a new one for preparation for the WNBA next season because I would like to add up Polls, so I could have asked if which team will be champion and other stuff that could be useful in a thread for WNBA season 2023,
It's up to you bro. You are the OP so it's your call.  Or, you can just post updates like what I said above, just like how it goes with the NBA discussion thread. Because there will be drafts, trades, and free agency. The other thread though is NBA betting which is being locked by @stadus whenever the NBA ends because its sole purpose is only for sharing bet predictions. The only difference is you combined it here with discussion and betting.  I just want one thread that I think we can put out our discussion and predictions at the same time that is why I combined it in one and because I am a lazy person I don't really want to move from one thread to another thread just by maintaining it and as you have said I can make an update for the news, drafts, free agency, for the WNBA, but I realize that I want to make a poll on who's going to win for the finals, but because I have already established my thread I can not add a poll for it, and actually it is really my 1st time making a poll for a thread, but I think I will just wait for further announcement on the WNBA if they will have drafts, trades and the start of the 2023 season, I think I will lock this and move on to that thread but for now we can still use this thread for further discussion on news and what may happen for the future on the WNBA, Well, Further news about the WNBA star in a Russian prison, Brittney Griner, and this is about Roy Jones that was awarded Russian Citizenship in 2015, said that he will go to Mr. Putin to secure the release of Brittney Griner but I am truly against this if she has committed a crime on Russian Soil then she needs to pay her in jail in the Russian prison, |

Yes, this is an unusual season and there is a possibility that we will see some unexpected champions in the European championships - for example Roma or Udinese in Italy  But I doubt that this is possible in the Bundesliga. No matter how bad Bayern play, all competitors will play even worse and less consistently. In some segments they can show good results, but in general they are untenable. We can also see a different situation in the Bundesliga and right now Union Berlin is making a progress, but I think we are still starting and in the early stage of the season so there could be a shift of pace between every team, but comparing the team play right now we can not see an elaborate consistency right now because some teams are just adjusting with the said changes,
There are reasons for and against your argument. Bayern scored 19 goals in 7 games, which is the top rank in the Bundesliga. I don't know whether it is just a striker who is missing right now. They aren't create enough when they come close to the box. Now they have so many agile players that it is shocking how they lack ideas to crack the opponents' defense.
When you say that Bayern has no problem with their defense, I am not so sure about that. It is not a bad defense, but they are not as solid as they used to be in some of the past seasons. The opponents know that Bayern is making mistakes at times and if you then defend solidly against Bayern and have that one lucky shot (like Augsburg), you can take it home against them.
Bayern gets under pressure when they don't score early. They need to fix that and not lose patience when a game has 90 minutes.
The man Lewandowski is sure a tough guy to not be pressured by every game in the Bundesliga but in my opinion, Lewandowski have left a big hole for the team, I really think that Nagelsmann's strategy was all pertaining for Lewandowski, and not compatible with the previous team now, that is why there are so many mistakes and Sadio Mane is still coping up to all of that change because he has a different position now than he usually have on his previous team there is a lot of pressure for each player for the Bayern Munich, that surely see a big mistakes with their play, |

There has been researching done on how much damage is done by boxing gloves, MMA gloves, and barehand punches.
I found it surprising that the difference was only 5 lbs between each.
So, none of them is safer compared to the other. Obviously, when you get in the ring, it is survival of the fittest. I find those people who try to make a case that boxing is safer compared to MMA or vice versa to be just stupid. In every fighting sport, there will be consequences. And the fighters are well aware of that. If any people cannot understand that or cannot stand the sight of blood, they should just stay away from watching boxing or MMA, or any other fighting sport.
Good find but I wish you could provide a link but anyway I think I will search for it anyway, well for me if their gloves are the same then the way MMA and boxing and how they could KO/TKO their opponent or how they fight inside the cage and if what combat sports does likely to make a majority hit to the head could be fatal, and likely boxing had the most punches to the head than with MMA, It's also worth noting that Izzy pretty much dominated until getting knocked out. So, while Alex is definitely a good knockout artist, he probably does get beat convincingly without getting that knockout. Obviously, it doesn't matter if he can continue to find that knock out, but I'm not convinced he can.
We are going to see if Izzy has Achilles' heel or not, but he showed weakness not just against Alex Pereira but also in fight with Jan Błachowicz. His game is great but far from perfect and I think that mental condition will be the key in fight against Pereira. As much as I like Adesanya I think that he can be little cocky sometimes and he can pay the price for this. New training video just released on Adesanya youtube channbel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xtbrq5L23U8Jan Blachowicz was a little aware of how Israel Adesanya was moving and I really don't know why those faints were getting to Izzy's head maybe because Izzy is respecting Blachowicz power but Jan Blachowicz keeps on getting into those faints he out faints the faint master, I really don't know if Jan Blachowicz was very technical on this match but he doesn't show this kind of aggressiveness during the Glover Texeira fight, but I think he has learned from this mistake so I think he will be fine, in taking exchange with fighters with the same length and height as him, |

It's already set and that's one reason why he has accepted the deal for this match, knowing that it's for a charity cause he never escalated and thought twice.
I don't see him doing this with political agenda. He's already past that and he's more for anything he want to do and all of these fights, I guess that his passion for boxing is just hard to remove even if he's already announced retirement.
We can never say, but I am just speculating that the charity work is just for his hidden agenda or a good point for Running again for Presidency, but yeah it could be a legit help for others, and as I have said knowing Pacman from rug to riches he is more close to the people at poverty, but we can really never know his true intension, But those fights were already set and we can not say if he wants to regain those lost amounts after that campaign period, but for a boxer like him surely those lingering effect on fighting in the ring will surely be there that is why he is still coming back for more,
Not sure about that possibilities, I mean the ticket is expensive, maybe yes there are some millionaires who can afford to buy but the majority will still watch this fight, it's Pacquiao and they are still believing that even if it's only an exhibition, they will be impress from the speed that Pacquiao still got even he's away from this sport. Maybe there would be some satisfied viewers that can say that Pacquiao still has it and still can continue for a real fight. Don't know but that possibilities still there once we've seen him inside the ring even it's just an exhibition.
Though the main purpose is for the benefits of this fight beneficiaries but we don't know what or how the performer will bring the entertainment to the fans and audiences that will support and buy the tickets.
I sure hope he doesn't underestimate his recent sparring partner Jaber Zayani he is out of fighting for some time, and DK Yoo is not really much compared to Jaber Zayani in my opinion but Manny Pacquaio doesn't really stand down on a fight he would surely accept the fight whatever or whoever it is, and many does want to see him come back so there are still possibilities however it will surely be shown in his performance if he would have ring rust or not, it will be shown during the fight, |

It's not just about having quality players at Bayern Munich, it's also about more games yet to be played this season so Bayern Munich in general still has a chance to catch up with some of the teams that are already top of the table at this point. After all, the number of points Bayern Munich has with several teams in the standings at this time is not so much that it is still easier for Bayern Munich to catch up.
I think many are expecting Bayern Munich to make a catch-up with the leader on the standing and that is Union Berlin, it is too early to say that Union Berlin will be the champion and the next to be like Bayern Munich, there are still a lot of matchdays to have and I think right now Bayern Munich might be readying some new formation for their certain players to be more familiar with, but if Nagelsmann still insist of giving the part to Sadio Mane, then the result will still be the same, but I could also be wrong here, It's been busy the last few weeks when Mane left and was replaced by Mane but it was a natural thing because, as you said, every departure, especially for a player who has always been the focus of a club, will definitely have an impact and maybe with Bayern's current condition it's not impossible. some will think that this was the wrong decision to sell Lewandowski.
Lewandowski doesn't want to be in Bayern Munich anymore, and the one that decided to leave, Bayern Munich just complied with what Lewandoski wants, because it is not worth it to keep a player that doesn't want to be part of the team anymore, I think it is still a great decision now that Lewandowski is gone to the team, then they will realize their mistakes and what Bayern Munich truly lack because for me Bayern Munich is relying so much to Robert Lewandowski, and all of Nagelsmann's strategy was for Lewandowski, |

It's also worth noting that Izzy pretty much dominated until getting knocked out. So, while Alex is definitely a good knockout artist, he probably does get beat convincingly without getting that knockout. Obviously, it doesn't matter if he can continue to find that knock out, but I'm not convinced he can.
Especially, since Izzy has learned to evade in MMA, and has become the master at it. Sometimes that means boring fights, but he hardly ever puts himself in danger even when he moved up a weight class. He's never really in any danger so to think that he'll put himself in danger against someone who's knocked him out in the past, personally I can't see it.
I agree, for me, Izzy was dominating at the beginning of the fight It was a sure win for Pereira that conditions Izzy for that solid punch, but that was a long time ago, Israel Adesanya has adopted a fighting style that is beyond just kickboxing, Alex Pereira wouldn't be an easy fight for him, but it is a winnable bet that Izzy will be better with his style of high on defensive evasion and great timing with those kicks and punches, It is surely viable to bet for Izzy, but I guess that Alex Pereira could be the favorite to win here, so his odds could be up, so it is great timing to bet for Adesanya, but this is just what I think and still, the odds could be equal aswell, What is your opinion on Pereira even getting that chance of a title fight? I mean he has two fights in UFC against opponents that were not in top15. Then a victory over Strickland, who I dont count as a very tough opponent (split win over Hermansson - the only opponent in record that was in top15 that time). And all of a sudden his fight against Adesanya was announced. Some fighters have 3-5 fights against top15 of their division before they get a title fight, but Pereira somehow got a short path.
The UFC might want to have a difficult fight for Adesanya and seeing how Alex Pereira win over Adesanya back in their Kickboxing days, they are thinking that this could be the best solution and a fight that could be highly anticipated by fans, or I think many are saying that Izzy's fighting style is boring for some that is why I think the UFC wants to change the middleweight champion and that is Alex Pereira a knockout artist it all points to the UFC orchestrating this fight to happen, |

I meant is the Block it should be assist, but that Lisa Leslie having that much block, was really superb back in her days, and with her natural height she can surely block whoever shoot on the perimeter, a truly good performance indeed, well apparently all good things must come to an end because on February 4, 2009, she announce her retirement,
Yeah right, summing it up and I agree with you, after that great adjustment from the Suns
we all don't expect that move from the coach of Aces, bringing a bench players and knocking those big shots, something
that surprises us all. Hope to see more out of him now. After that great performance, she might gain more exposures now. I used to remember Steve Kerr making that game last shot, and the rest is history for this top shooter turn coach star.
After that great Performance for both teams, I was surprise by the WNBA now, they can surely make plays they surely have many players that can shoot on the deep, and can make good defense aswell, well Steve Kerr is a great player back then but right now his skills in basketball have already faded because of his age and right now he is getting some perfect games back,
And because the WNBA is already over, I am now waiting for the NBA to start but I am thinking of locking this thread and making a new one for preparation for the WNBA next season because I would like to add up Polls, so I could have asked if which team will be champion and other stuff that could be useful in a thread for WNBA season 2023, |
