The virus is spreading everywhere, changing the venue wouldn't help because they are also looking for a venue that will attract a lot of people, and IMO Japan is the best venue as the Japanese will definitely support their own even though they know that GGG is the better fighter. As the omicron virus continues to disrupt the world, let's hope the cases will be minimize so this fight will eventually purpose, hopefully in the 1st quarter of the year.
With the Japanese government's firmness on this I feel this is a pretty good measure to prevent the spread from spreading, but on the other hand we also have to be willing to wait for delays like this fight. actually I was really looking forward to this but indeed we won't be able to do much because instead of taking risks with a virus like this maybe it's better to just follow the advice from the government Seems that this first quarter of the year is not looking good because of the omicron variant. We may see this fight in the second or third quarter of this year. But while waiting, GGG and Murata can prepare for their upcoming fight. GGG is already in his 40s, so let's see if he can still wait this long and still have the power inside the ring. It may be GGG's last hurrah inside the boxing arena. So yes, this is quite interesting to watch. If against Murata, I don't think this will be a hard fight for him, at least a more quality fighter, but this one, I'm sure he can win it with ease. Though it seems like it's not gonna happen again but I hope his last Hurrary will be against Canelo, for sure fans would be happy to see that. Murata is a tough boxer but if against GGG, he's really facing a whole new level and I really believe that GGG won't be having a hard time to defeat this Japanese boxer which they say that he's more famous in Japan than Inoue and that he's viewed as a hero in their country. I'm also expecting that GGG can have the last dance against Canelo before he decides to hang-up his gloves and that would definitely make the fans happy as they're also looking forward to see their trilogy. |

This is one hell of a game with the Bulls vs the Nets. This is the latest I can remember a Bulls game starting (9PM local time). The Bulls are playing good basketball but every time they manage to get within two or tie it up the Nets come right back. This trio of Harden, Durant and Kyrie is just ridiculously good. The Bulls seem to keep leaving Durant open. They are having a hard time guarding this big 3, often doubling on one of them then it opens another up. Let’s go bulls!
There's no doubt that the Nets big 3 is really playing well, they doesn't have that much difficulties with their rotation which is good to see. Even without Irving, the Nets is still a tough team to beat. But sadly, the Bulls have been defeated and they're indeed struggling to guard the big 3 specially Irving is always running and they tend to leave Durant open. Gotta give some credits to Patty Mills especially Day'Ron Sharpe as they also made double figures. |

Good luck to us, we are riding on the same team, hopefully, it's not just a trap where we regret after this game. Unfortunately, we've lost because the Nets have dominated the game which resulted to 26 points of difference (BULLS 112-138 NETS). So, might as well bet on the Bulls again next game as they are likely to bounce back but still a tough one to choose because they will be facing against GSW. I didn't expect to see Kyrie in todays game, because his schedules are going on/off but, he didn't really scored much but Harden, Durant, Mills and Sharpe put some double figures of 20+ which helped the team to secure the game into their side. |

I thought the Clippers was already done after the first half but I was surprised they managed to steal the game. Both teams have problems with missing players but Nuggets still had Jokic and Gordon who came up big but still fell short. Good fourth quarter performance by Terance Mann and Reggie Jackson.
Reggie Jackson is very reliable, even in the playoffs last season, we saw his consistency and now with the absence of PG and Leonard, they are still competing as a team despite the fact that their ranking is going down but I still see the spirit of competitiveness and toughness in a game as they beat some good teams also. |

Possible if GGG would have those consecutive winning fights then who knows right?
That's the only way. But on how much consecutive win, that's the question. GGG should not even look up to that fight to happen but instead, regardless of who's the opponent just focus on it. Murata is a champion and he needs to snatch that title for a much bulky titleholder that might get Canelo's interest again. But to me personally, I don't like now the trilogy. GGG vs Murata should not be accompanied by talks involving Canelo. Well, everytime we are talking of GGG, there's always a name Canelo attach to the conversation as we all want to see a trilogy between the two. They are the best in their division and it was only GGG whom Canelo did not dominate in a fight, so for the last time before GGG will retire, we want to see a Trilogy. Thats a fan perspective but overall they are the ones who do make out decisions whether there's a trilogy or completely cut off that rivalry because there would be no point on proving out something which had already been given a total period. I agree on that point that whenever we do talk about GGG then there would be having those kind of talks or attachments in Canelo which i would say an unavoidable kind of mentioning these names. GGG would snatch out that title for sure and i dont have doubts on that. It is normal if the name of Canelo surfaces every time the name GGG is talked about. That is expected because they have an unfinished business. They both are involved in a fierce rivalry. Not to mention that the results of their two fights were all controversial. When they had their first fight, both of them claimed victory despite the split decision draw that was made official. The second fight, Canelo won but still very controversial because many believed GGG won. That's why there is a strong demand for a trilogy to seal the controversy once and for all. But of course they will have to finish their other business first like this Murata fight for GGG. I agree, it's just like Manny and Floyd, seems to be their names are attached to each other until Manny retires. As for Canelo, he didn't give GGG a chance for a trilogy so we really don't know what will be the score. But as we can see Fury vs Wilder has it's trilogy and so many others in the history. But it seems that GGG has remain in the 160 lbs and reclaim his belt and will likely to continue with his career until he retires without getting that Canelo trilogy. The organization would be always have the final say or decision whether a Trilogy would happen or not and next would be those boxers itself but it seems that Canelo isnt really that interested for this one. For now the thing GGG must do is to win up those possible fights ahead until he retires on at least he do have a good record as he hang up his gloves even though he wont get a trilogy chance with Canelo which lets just accept that fact but hey, who knows on what would happen next? No, the organization will just support in case both boxers will agree with the fight we are talking. However, GGG has to beat Murata first so the hype will continue and Canelo would eventually accept this trilogy so he can tell the fans that they should not doubt him, for sure no more fight if he still wins. |

Was there even a good movie in 2021? I don't remember I watched any quality movies lately. Oscar awards lost its meaning long time ago. Seems to me they are trying to keep this tradition alive desperately. Since there aren't any decent movies, they are throwing the awards randomly now. Which means, you can't really come up with an educated guess.
Definitely, I can't think of any good movie though that was very worth it to be included in the Oscar's Awards. I was even puzzled to see those names who are favorites and nominated to be the best actor/actress award. But yeah, the show must go on and there should be an announcement of who will have the award. As @mindrust said, you can't really have the right judgement/guess on whom really deserved it. But my best guess for the best actor would be Denzel Washington. |

It's not just the homecourt advantage, but the Bulls are in full strength right now with no one reported in injuries list or under the health and safe protocol.
So I agree with either ML or handicap bet at -1.5 for the Bulls. The Nets have lost what? 5 of their last 7 games? But the Bulls, if not for their lost last to Mavericks, they could be still on their own winning streak.
With their very dominant win in their previous game, I would not hesitate to put a bet on the Bulls as well. the only reason why they are not the heavy favorite is because the Nets are still looking to be the best team in the East now, so it's time for the Bulls to prove that they deserve the number 1 spot. There's no doubt that the Nets now is also a solid team, but as a matter of fact, they are quite busy right now proving their worth in the league despite having only 2 active players on the supposed big 3. While the Bulls don't have any problem at all in their roster and they're listed on the #1 spot for a reason. So might as well put a bet on the Bulls with a handicap bet of -2 as they can cover that small spread even if it were a close game. |

Chicago Bulls are currently good on their system. Why like to add a role player when there's no room available yet?
Bulls are already complete from PG to Center and no need for an additional main star. If Ben Simmons will be traded there, it's like the Bulls find a reason for their fall. He is currently not fit with the Bulls unless the team is doing a major revamp.
Simmons will be fine at Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks need to get him.
Bulls right now are in the right rhythm and they still managed to preserve the number 1 spot in the Eastern Conference with their current rosters. They are sufficient right now and don't need to add anyone to their team. because it's not all about the skill but the chemistry and how they played right now is the crucial factor to win every game. No matter how good the players are when put inside the court without chemistry, they will play selfishly and always throw some contested shots which will result in their loss. Exactly! Now isn't the right time to assess a new player on the Chicago Bulls especially when the regular season is already halfway through the playoffs. The Chicago Bulls is already a tough team to beat and one of the most skilled team with the an unquestionable good chemistry in the league right now that's why they are placed in the #1 spot on the ECF. |

if we will have a poll on this match, i believe spence jr will still be the favourite here by bettors.
Favorite to win the match or the usual favorite as interest? I don't see most bettors will put a stake on Spence Jr. if the odds will be around @1.5 unless willing to take the risks since to them, it's a sure win for Spence. Even I'm rooting for Spence to win, I want to see the odds first and if Ugas has big odds, I might consider placing a bet for him. Who knows. Can't believe his eye injury will be fully healed in March or April unless it's not a big issue before but just take it as a reason for skipping Pacquiao's fight. If it will not drop below 1.50, I think it's a good odds for Spence knowing that he is a great fighter who can take down Ugas for sure. As of now, we have no idea of the odds but one thing is sure is that Spence will be listed as the favorites to win the fight, so let's just hope an attractive odds for Spence so we will bet right away. |

If you take it as an entertainment, then have some advantages. But if you take it as a earning source then lots of disadvantages you have to face. Patience is the key to success in gambling. Gambling teaches you how to keep patience. When and how do you take right decision gambling teache you. Worst disadvantage is you lost your emotions and wealth. Day by day you fall in deep depression.
AFAIK, patience is more applicable in investing and trading. IMO even if you're patient in gambling, what's next? are you going to be successful after that? No. There's so much a lot of things needed for you to have that description of being successful there. It takes a lot of courage for one to be called successful in gambling and the reality is that, not that many sees that success. The only thing that I could see is that gambling will please someone who has been tired/bored from their job. But if we are talking about earning money from here, well, isn't that possible but it needs luck and knowledge. And so much we can't rely upon in here when income to generating income for the family. It has to say that addiction is a big problem in gambling but that can be stopped as long as we want to. If we can manage to control ourselves and know our limitations, that is not a problem. We are just making fun in gambling and that was the thing we were supposed to do. Making money in gambling is possible but this kind of job is not for everyone as only a few are chosen to possess the skills to be successful. Most of us will eventually lose so we just have to enjoy gambling, at least knowing the risk is very important as it will ensure us to be safe even if we lose. |

Quite surprised to see how huge Magsayo is as an underdog against Russell. Do the sport bookies didn't consider Mark's record and experience + Russell long lay off?
What do you expect? Russell is the champion and Magsayo the B-side in this fight. So obviously, sports bookies are going to consider that, hence Russell is a big favourite here. For sure they have considered all angles before opening their odds. The champion is always listed as the favorite, but there's no guarantee that the champion could defend his belt successfully, and with that I'm taking chances on Magsayo as he has all the potential of a great fighter in the future, he is still young and has a lot to offer. Obviously, even the sport bookies are really underestimating the underdog (Magsayo), we can just see it just by looking the odds but we can't deny the fact that as of now, Gary Russell is the champion so it's really apparent that he's listed as the favorite. I will really take this advantage and chance as I know that Magsayo will likely be declared winner of this fight, this man already got what it takes to defeat Russell and he definitely has the talent and capabilities to be an exceptional boxer. |

And the Lakers lost again! lol the best recruiter in the looks like he's going to for a new talent coz their bigs are useless
Should've taken Cousins for that 10 day contract and tried him out. Now Nuggets will be have a stronger defender below the rim. Lakers streak was broken and this tells they are not the caliber we are expecting, yet. It could've ended worse in a blowout game at 20 points upward of a lead from the Grizzlies but thanks to the 2nd team led by Austin Reeves it was cut down creating a 17-0 run. They thought it was over but he pumped the fans in Crypto.com Arena by giving them hope. I thought Frank Vogel is going to switch to his stars but thank God he didn't. Those guys deserves to stay in the game and finish it on their own. We have a discussion about few pages ago saying that Memphis will be a big test to see if Lakers have the chemistry already. And now we got the answer, they are only good when they played a team that has a below .500. And teams they've fought with a winning record? they usually lost as seen in their last game against Ja Morant. You said it right, we've seen what they can do and they could not beat Memphis which is not really a championship team. However, I know the Lakers are trying their best, they are still undermanned now, they missed one of their best players so it's understandable, as long as they keep hanging to the playoff spot, they'll still be very dangerous in the playoffs. You got a point right there that they're undermanned, but being undermanned isn't going a good excuse for the Lakers because only Anthony Davis is the only missing as a key player of their team and aside from that fact, they have Westbrook, Carmelo and Howard which could make them aleady a tough team. But sadly, the Lakers now is really inadequate and miserable to see. I mean, look at the Heats, they have the most missing players in the league too. But you're right, as long as they keep their spot they can be still dangerous in the upcoming games and in the playoffs. There's still a lot of room to learn. |

I think it's a good way to make money as long as the coin have a price and the market capacity is still around 100 Million but below than that I don't think it will become a joke but I think it will be impossible for the Dogecoin to be left behind since Elon Musk constantly pumping and spamming it over his Twitter account and trying to use the Dogecoin to buy merchandise.
Well, DOGE started as a joke until it became more than just a mere joke because investing in this coins is really profitable but still that doesn't change the fact that this coin ain't suitable for long term holding, it's own volatility isn't the case why this particular coin isn't good for long term but because the whales itself including the famous Elon Musk. Sure, dogecoin won't left behind because Elon Musk and other unknown whales are constantly manipulating the market to its own benefit, well I ain't saying that we shouldn't invest but I'm saying to invest only a little sum to avoid losses when the market suddenly dumps. |

Locked my bet on the Cavs+9.5 h2h shows that Cavs have been losing by double digits but like i've mentioned before their recent losses have been close and it's hard to gauge Warriors performance even with Klay back in the lineup. Expecting Warriors to win but at the same time, I think the Cavs will cover and keep it below double digits.  Better luck next time, mate. Nice bet but the spread was too short because the game ended with a 14points difference (GSW 96-82 CAVS). I did almost locked on the Warriors -10 but the spread was just too big just because Klay will be playing again after 2 years. Same as you, I did already expect that the GSW would eventually win but a -10 ain't really realistic for me as Cavs will maintain a close gap even if they lose, just like what you think. |

Back to what you want to achive in this crypto world. Let me give you some parable, if you want to make money shortly as a trader, maybe altcoin is the best choice, because the price is not too expensive like bitcoin, and manycoin you can collect as a trader.
If you are an investor, maybe bitcoin better than altcoin for a long time, because most of the price of altcoin, determined by bitcoin price.
Even so, not all altcoins can make money quickly and with current market conditions it is also difficult for sure to achieve that, making a profit requires a process and we have to be really patient, sometimes many people judge that in crypto we can make profits quickly and that's a big mistake Even in bitcoin, investing on it won't mean that you'll likely to reap more profits. Bitcoin and some right altcoins like BNB or ETH can be more profiting if a big sum will be invested to it, I mean, if you only invested a little compared to the present value of coin you've chosen then the profits you make is also little. Sometimes many people judge that in crypto we can make profits quickly and that's a big mistake Well, can't blame them because they've probably seen that someone's life has been more abundant and comfortable because of cryptom, that's why they thought that cypto is an easy road to success. |

There's still that possibility, as if a steep drop is going to make things worse for bitcoin market to the point of not being able to recover. The market will eventually recover and I don't think that a 100k is an impossible thing to happen this year, we have 12 months to wait for it to happen.
Precisely! Sure bitcoin is currently bearish at this point and experiencing some steep drop but that doesn't mean that bitcoin can go to a point of no return and can't recover. And these self renowned "experts" is just giving some mere speculations like we do and certainly there's no proof that they're accurate when it comes to predicting market situations and prices. That $100k prediction may sound impossible for now as we're currently experiencing some dips but that doesn't mean that $100k is really impossible this year, we still have a long way to go before the year 2022 ends. |

It seems like the NBA pretty much have the record for almost all of the aspect of the game. LeBron being in the age of 37 has done really something impressive carrying a team who's struggling that's was suppose to be one of the strongest team in the West. Well, the Lakers are doing fine playing a small ball with LeBron being in the Center position, but the most notable player that's helping the Lakers and LeBron to win their 4 winning-streak was none other than Malik Monk. He has become a more consistent scorer now. Though LeBron's performance is timeless but without any help from the whole team they'll achieve nothing this year. The Lakers slowly getting up to a good standing, with their 4th win streak, they are now at number 6. That's very good for Lebron James, another achievement again and more to come as for sure he will be playing more seasons in the NBA. At his age, he still looks like he is in his prime, so everything he achieve now is not surprising anymore. I also noticed that, they're starting to show some improvements now and better chemistry in the Lakers roster, and also Westbrook began to show some good development in his plays now compared to their recent games. LBJ is without a doubt a notable player in the league but he can't just carry the team always, his teammates really need to step-up too like they do now. They really need consistency while AD isn't available yet. As they are now in the 6th spot they're also ready to get the 5th spot which is now seated by the Dallas Mavericks. We'll see they could get the seat if Lakers could get some revenge against the Grizzlies in the next game as they got defeated in their match-up last time. And for the Mavericks, their next game is against the Bulls. This is so interesting to watch! |

It's the other way around, Russell should not underestimate Magsayo's capabilities because there is a good possibilities that he can pull an upset. And if he become the typical boxer who is truly believes in him as a champion to defeat anyone, then he could be wrong as Magsayo is a very dangerous opponent for him and shouldn't be taken lightly. And hopefully this fight will live up to it's expectation of one of the best fights in the lower division this year.
Never seen Magsayo getting dominated in a fight, he maybe not the champion now but he is a real deal with a great future. If he wins this fight, that will start the best days of his career and his promoter was never wrong in trusting him to become the champion. All these are just my speculation and expectation but it will only be possible if Magsayo will work hard for this fight and consider it as the biggest fight of his life. His last fight with Ceja, in the scorecards he was behind so i think that was one instance that he was dominated in a fight but when Ceja was hit by that lethal blow, the outcome have changed. I just do hope that Magsayo will be aggressive upon the opening bell to score some points in case he can't score a knockout, he still got a chance to get the judges nod. With coach Freddie Roach in his corner, i think he is in good hands and come fight night, the Philippines will have a new champion in the Featherweight division. Maybe it was ring rust that affected Magsayo? And as you have said, he was really behind in the scorecard and luckily that power bail him out in one of the greatest comeback of his career. But in this fight, he can't really be complacent, he needs to be aggressive and show Russell the power early so that the American will somewhat will have doubts in attacking and used his speed in the fight because he knows that if Magsayo lands that power on his chin, it might be over. Ring rust isn't the case here that affected Magsayo, it's their capabilities, I'm not saying that Magsayo doesn't deserve it but Ceja (32W-28KO) was much more experienced boxer than Magsayo (23W-16KO) and we can just see it by looking at the numbers. Indeed Magsayo have been left behind the scorecards, and maybe Ceja was underestimating the Pinoy boxer because his punches doesn't connect well and for that reason Ceja lowered his guards and leaves him open to let Magsayo give him a lethal punch that turned the tables which secured Magsayo's win. In this fight, I can say that both sides have studied well about each other's weakness and movements. So, it will just a matter of who's punches will connect and the first to make a lethal blow. But these things is just a mere speculations, we will see it soon as they fight. |

If BTC was the main currency then it will not have fiat value, one btc will remain so without any market volatility because BTC is pegged to fiat people only see the fiat value of BTC but once this is removed people will then see BTC as it is, however, this can only happen with the approval of the government and we all know the stand of majority of the government of each country.
Certainly, if it will going to happen somewhere in the future, the value of bitcoin stays the same and will not follow the value of any fiat because as @pearl12 said, bitcoin is pegged to fiat and not the other way around. But on other hand, I'd still definitely doubt that it will be the case and that countries/governments will likely allow Bitcoin to be their main currency. And on the first place, its market is too volatile to make it as a main and second, definitely they won't allow that to happen as bitcoin is fully decentralized already and local fiats will still exists as it's still backed by the government itself. |

There's no update yet regarding Japan's travel ban, they may have a different policy than the USA and that would be a hindrance for this fight to happen early next year. I just hope for the best and that these two fights will finally fight each other as a big fight is always a good start for the new year.
Yes, there's no update yet in regard to this fight, no schedule yet and both fighters can use these opportunities to train harder, I still eyeing to see GGG inside the ring and showcase his talent. He still got good space in this sport and he still can fight if given a chance to meet with other good boxers. Small step for now, winning this fight from Murata may open the door for more promoters to see his worth..  If Murata can beat GGG without a doubt this will bring him to the spotlight, even if GGG is not at his best anymore due to his age he is still a very good fighter and even a victory over him by a small margin will increase the visibility for someone like Murata that is mostly famous on is own country. That being said it is not going to be easy, GGG is still a champion and has a lot of experience in this kind of championship fights, so if I was Murata I will try to take it slow during the first rounds and then try to take advantage of the old age of GGG in the last rounds. That's a nice idea and move you got there, Murata needs to take action in the middle or late rounds when GGG's tanks ain't that full anymore and tests GGG's capabilities in the early rounds. I think that's the best choice Murata got because if he try to follows GGG's hype in the early rounds then that might be the end of Murata as we know that GGG is good at close fight and definitely had more experience than the Japanese boxer. That being said, I do think that GGG have still the upper hand in this upcoming match even if he's much older than Murata. Also, Murata's skills/capabilities will be tested on this fight as it's going to be a really big break for him if he eventually defeat the crowd favorite and champion GGG. |
