Thats a good idea maybe , but i think that Leverkusen can be win the game , depends how they playing today against Brügge in the Champions League.
If they playing the same very good as Dortmund has showen all should be good , by the way i would love to see Dortmund playing the same in the german league,
as they played yesterday then they can beat Bayern Munich , but if the playing like Leipzig then all hope is lost.
Leverkusen and Leipzig we will see something about a coach changing if both losing again .

I don't know how the players are motivated in every game but the Leverkusen is not consistent right now that it is a risk betting with them, and I don't really know if this is really involved in their plan or what this is just my speculation, Leverkusen is still a great team in the Bundesliga despite their performance is pretty much lacking, they were the best teams last season, so I surely doubt they are just having some problems with something, maybe their team play was off, but eventually they will surely get off this in the future matchday,

Leipzig's decision seems to have fallen to Marco Rose and it is reported that a full agreement has been made in this regard so that he can be in charge when facing Dortmund later.
As for Tuchel, it is likely that he will rest for a while now that Chelsea are not satisfied with his leadership in managing the players until week 6 in the EPL.

I've already seen the news and just because Domenico Tedesco's coaching doesn't seem effective because the team of Leipzig is still lacking in their performance, and if this continues now that Marco Rose is a coach, he surely is sharing the same fate as Domenico Tedesco, I surely have high hopes for Leipzig that they can still manage to turn the tables and make it until the 2nd spot of the standing in the Bundesliga but still, they only have 1 win this season, even so, it is not really too late because we are just starting our Matchday 6 for this season,

He is good but compared to Chimaev he is worse, older and much weaker.
I am not saying he won't give his best performance in this moment, but it just not enough in top competition with fighter who aims for championship belt.

Two nice warm-up videos to watch and prepare for this event, FULL EPISODE UFC 279 Countdown:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpfC9-BAUww

UFC 279 Embedded: Vlog Series - Episode 3:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0eklceRmTo


I Agree, even though he pretty much showed a remarkable performance against Conor McGregor, it is not really enough to make him on par against Khamzat Chimaev, if the impending fight and we saw that Nate Diaz would win against Chimaev I would surely be surprised but for sure that would be unexpected, then maybe fighting the title shot and getting the belt the only fighter that I think can be toe to toe with Khamzat Chimaev will be Shavkat Rakhmonov that level of skill, technique, and fight IQ I think Shavkat Rakhmonov will surely have a brawl against Chimaev,


Lmaooo.  And wasn't that the match up when he couldn't make weight by a mile and the UFC decided to have the fight at a catch weight of 190 or something then eventually deciding to have it at 205 because Costa might have had too much partying?  That was hilarious.

But Costa really looked good lately.  I hope he gets matched up vs Whitaker with the winner getting a title shot.

Anyway here's the Multi Master...

UFC 279 - Multi Master Challenge
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5412533.0



Same old attitude for Paulo Costa, and making fun of Khamzat Chimaev, thinking that he is in a high level of Division doesn't mean other lower division fighters would not snap and not take him on, that attitude of his will surely cost him, and if he never changes someday Dana White will eventually try to get him away on the UFC, I never imagine that he is now back on the middleweight division, I thought that Luke Rockhold was on the Light Heavyweight, and right now Costa is in the 6th rank of the Middleweight and maybe he wants to take on Adesanya again, but for sure he would need to take on a Marvin Vettori again, Jared Cannonier, or Robert Whittaker,

As much as I'd like to see it, I think Whittaker takes that pretty easily. I imagine he goes with the similar approach Izzy did. Obviously, Costa should've learned something from that fight so maybe he'll have an answer for it this time. Since, with Izzy he pretty much froze, and then received a beat down. Unfortunately, Izzy has made that into a joke now, which isn't very funny, but I imagine has Costa seething at the teeth.

Costa has the skills, and framework to become a real problem he just needs to throw some of that mass around, and go for the take downs more in my opinion. Anyway, I'm going to try, and get my predictions out early tomorrow.

I highly doubt he would take that route, or even learn from every fight from that thick numb skull of his surely my first impression of Paulo Costa on the 1st time seeing him fighting Adesanya I have said that Israel Adesanya will have a hard time from him, but because Costa is not that technical, Adesanya has gone through him with ease, while Costa lacking a ground game doesn't have any option if his brawling technique failed, and that is all he have the Brawling technique,

The money is flowing into exhibition matches because there are famous names getting involved in those matches.
They are creating a good hype for those matches and hence the tickets are being sold anything.
For example: Logan Paul vs Mayweather match was really hyped and gained a lot of attention.

Pretty much Exhibition matches are very popular because people get to see their favorite fighter or artist fight a retired boxer, and this time a Youtuber VS a retired boxer, this  kind of fight will surely catch attention because it is new for them, and some are pretty much bored on just boxing they want to see never before seen just like on the upcoming fight of Manny Pacquiao on December against a martial arts master and that is DK Yoo, maybe this will create a stir on the fans or could be a fail because in recent DK Yoo fight some Youtuber has to Speculate that DK Yoo doesn't know how to fight in boxing,



Here are some quick picks for the upcoming fights on Shields vs. Marshall: Legacy

Claressa Shields VS Savannah Marshall

Stake odds for this fight are 1.92 for Shields while 1.86 for Marshall, my pick will be Claressa Shields,

Mikaela Mayer VS Alycia Baumgardner

Stake odds for this fight are 1.37 for Mayer while 3.05 for Baumgardner, my pick will be Mikaela Mayer

April Hunter VS Erica Alvarez

Stake odds for this fight are 1.04 for Hunter while 10.00 for Alvarez, my pick will be April Hunter, but not going to bet,

Sarah Liegmann VS Bec Connolly

Stake odds for this fight are 1.03 for Liegmann while 11.00 for Connolly, my pick will be Sarah Liegmann but not going to bet for this fight aswell,

Isnt Nate good at BJJ ? Wikipedia says he has a cool black belt in it. Also most of his wins were made by submission. And he was only one loss via submission in early stages of his career. I dont think that Chimaev is going to win by submission, but he will use his wrestling skills to turn this fight to the ground and win by ground and pound. I think it is going to be ref stoppage after a series of strikes on the ground or doctor stoppage.

Agaisnt Khamzat Chimaev has a ground game aswell, I think he's not going to do it, even if he has a black belt on Brazilian Jui Jitsu, a ground game against Chimaev would likely be asking himself to commit suicide, I really think he is aware of it, and I think Nate Diaz really love to brawl in all occasion you may see him finishing his opponent on the ground but he is likely brawling so much on the start of the match, and likely be finishing with a submission, like his fight with Connor McGregor he surely wants to brawl first then gets his head bloodied, then he finishes McGregor with a submission, but likely McGregor doesn't really want to Brawl with Diaz on their 2nd match he keeps on evading for Diaz momentum to likely become off,


Submission is very likely because this is Chimaev. Odds will be more profitable by submission.

Even if the fight will be bloody and slimey for Chimaev, he will bring this fight to the ground whenever he gets an opportunity and submit Nate to show his dominance. I don't think Nate can ever defend a TD. Its a helicopter dance.

Likely that could really happen Khamzat Chimaev got the strength it is not notable for his Physique you would think he is a skinny fighter but beyond observation, he likely got a compact muscle he has the strength, just like his fight with Li Jingliang where he is carrying and just picking him up while talking with Dana White, that is one intense fight and from that he surely got the hype he deserves, for Nate Diaz to take on Chimaev on the ground he would likely think twice even though he got a black belt on BBJ, in my opinion, a Black Belt is not really a rank it is always a beginning in getting your own style or a start in making you own through experience,
2625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 07, 2022, 03:02:59 PM

I would be not surprised if there will be a draw or even that Leverkusen will lose that again as they playing also in the Champions League this week.
Hertha Berlin has more time to recover from the last weekend and can focuse more on the coming weekend.
Normaly Leverkusen should be win that game but from the last games i dont know how to bet there.

Leverkusen is not doing great, at the moment I don't know what really happen, but Hertha is having a moment aswell, I think this match could likely end up in a draw Hertha has won against Augsburg with 0 - 2 while Leverkusen lost to Augsburg back on Matchday 2, so it could be a possible win for Hertha, but for me, a draw can be likely aswell, but If you are not sure about what may happen just like me then bet for both Draw and Hertha,

With the Champions League match for Leverkusen, I personally will not hesitate to choose Hertha Berlin to win, but if Leverkusen chooses to focus more on the Bundesliga then it looks like the match will still be balanced and maybe the final result will be a draw too. But if Leverkusen puts the same focus on the Champions League as well, then I believe Hertha Berlin will win because if I consider from head to head both have the ability to win. It's just that, at this moment Leverkusen must share their focus in different tournaments which of course Hertha Berlin with the abilities they have will certainly be able to take advantage of this moment to get full points at home.

Just like last season, Leverkusen doesn't really focus much on their win maybe they are aiming for the championship league, but this is just a setup for bigger teams to think that Leverkusen is not the same and they could let their guard down, then Leverkusen will likely take winnings for the future matchday, we all know that it is only the beginning there is so much more that could happen, and Leipzig and Leverkusen are teams that could likely chase their score up to the higher spot of the Bundesliga,

The small ball played by the Aces seemed too much for the Storm. They played this strategy in two consecutive games but the Storm did not find a way to counter this. A'ja Wilson has free reign in the paint and Chelsea Gray has the ability to isolate in the perimeter. This contributes to the defeat of the Storms. Both Sue Bird and Tina Charles need to contribute to help Breanna Stewart who will certainly be guarded by A'ja Wilson again. Wilson is doing a great job limiting Stewart. If Bird and Charles can have a dominant game, it can open up the opportunity for Stewart to score.

Las Vegas will likely end the series in this game and punch their ticket to the Finals.

But apparently, it is not enough Breanna Stewart is a real monster she really wants to win badly that 42 points were really something she is the only one that is lifting the team, while Sue Bird and Tina Charles are nowhere to be found, while Jewell Loyd is the one supporting Stewart in making the score surely the Las Vegas Aces have prepared a deadlock for the Storms, it was sad that Breanna Stewart really wants this win badly but it was all goes down the drain,


I was about to say prolong the game but I was watching the 4th quarter and there are too many errors in Storm's defense. They are confused or the Aces made them like that. Chelsea Gray was always left whenever a pick and roll happens.
Aces won the game in a respectable and difficult way. It was intense from games 1-4.
On the other side, Sun vs Sky is tied in the series.

Time to say goodbye to Sue Bird. Retiring at 41 years old.
Thank you, Sue.

I was truly sad by the result and 2 of my picks lost I surely have some faith for the Storm because of how good of a player Breanna Storm is, but I guess she really needs an equal companion to accommodate her for the Seattle Storm next season, for now, Congrats to the Las Vegas Aces in making it to the finals right now they will have to wait who ever win on the next game of the Connecticut Sun VS Chicago Sky that is heating up on a series tie,

Man, I never thought that Sue Bird is already 41 years old, this is something I haven't seen and her departure was really expected and right now I think Seattle Storm needs to look for her replacement, looking forward to that,


Here is the sad result for my 2 picks and bets

Connecticut Sun VS Chicago Sky SCORE 104 - 80 - LOST

Seattle Storm VS Las Vegas Aces SCORE 92 - 97 - LOST

Dana White Contender Series Week 7 is starting in few hours and we have plenty of fighters from Brazil.



I forgot about the Contender Series, and I missed watching and betting for it as well, watching the highlights of the fights

Vitor Petrino vs Rodolfo Bellato

This is surely one fight that you want to watch Vitor Petrino got the power and he isn't afraid to brawl, Rodolfo Bellato is getting ready for a triangle lock on Petrino but Vitor Petrino just carry and power bomb Bellato, which gets Petrino free from the lock, and Petrino pretty much has a counter from Bellato's takedowns, now on the 2nd round both fighters are now tired but that left hook punch has succumbed Bellato down by Petrino from all the fight this is the one that I like, and so Welcome to the UFC Vitor Petrino,

Gabriel Bonfim VS Trey Waters

A fast submission choke from Bonfim, have got him the win, it was really a fast win for Gabriel Bonfim and both he and his brother got the Contract,

Karl Williams  VS Jimmy Lawson

Even though the fight was a decision for Karl Williams he still got that UFC Contract that he wants I guess Dana white has given him a chance,

Ismael Bonfim VS Nariman Abbasov

just like his brother Gabriel Bonfim congrats to Ismael Bonfim for getting the UFC contract Dana White has seen the potential for these two brothers, and even though Bonfim just got a decision win, just like his Brother Gabriel Ismael they have pretty much impressed Dana White,

Tereza Bledá VS Nayara Maia

It was a boring fight but the fighting Kitty needs to keep it up until she gets a UFC contract but right now this is not her lucky day, Tereza Bleda,doesn't got the contract,
2628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: September 06, 2022, 11:44:59 PM

I started googling for catchweight description and found this:

Another example was at UFC 99 when Wanderlei Silva fought Rich Franklin at a catchweight bout of 195 pounds. Silva typically fought at the Light Heavyweight weight class of 205 pounds, while Franklin fought at the Middleweight weight class of 185 pounds. They agreed on a catchweight bout, and both men weighed in at 194 for the fight.

This is my sick imagination, but Khamzat could easily sign a contract to fight Costa, as he is ready to step in against anyone. I like that you have mentioned welterweight and light heavyweight Cheesy I like that I am not the only one who thinks that Costa is from different weight division than he is currently in. Khamzat is tall and quite skinny for welterweight. I think it wont be a problem for him to gain some extra pounds to punish Costa for trashtalk. But, I cant say that Chimaev could be an obvious fighter in that fight. Costa lands very heavy strikes, just like Burns. If Burns was enough to shake Chimaev and dispel the myth of Chimaev immortality, then Costa has all the chances to win Chimaev.

WOW! I never thought that it could be possible, and well Paolo Costa is originally in the Middleweight division alongside Israel Adesanya but because of his missed weigh-in against Marvin Vettori and he is heavier than a Middleweight the fight was shifted to the Light Heavyweight so he is technically a Light Heavyweight fighter now,

On that note, Gilbert Burns looks more like a Middleweight than a Welterweight but maybe his bodybuild also can compete with the Light Heavy aswell, so if Khamzat Chimaev withstands Burns, for me he can likely eat Costa Alive like  said Chimaev is one crazy dude, he would do anything just to fight anyone he wants,


It's worth a punt on Diaz as you never know with him but the odds on Skybet are 11/2 which I wouldn't bother with. Both him and Chiamev are machines and don't give up and Diaz is like a Terminator so I think he will keep getting up and walking on into a war even if he's getting battered. I think Chiamav will win, but I could also see this going this distance as well. I would like to see an upset though. Will be interesting if Diaz does win and where that leaves him with the UFC. I'd still like to see the trilogy with McGregor some day. Connor is running out of options without taking on someone who is just going to annihilate him like Chiamev.


Well, an upset is only possible if the fight would not result in the ground, if Khamzat Chimaev decided to bring the fight to the ground then likely this may end up sooner, but knowing Chimaev he also wants to brawl just like he did with the Gilbert Burns fight, and Nick Diaz even though he is bloodied and brutally wounded he will surely get back up and will still fight this could also intimidate some of his opponents that is why it is going the distance, but for Chimaev he is known for the man with no fear, and Nate Diaz intimidation will not going to work against Chimaev,
2629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ] The Unification Fight: FURY vs USYK on: September 06, 2022, 07:39:22 PM

I like Usyk, he's got big heart and huge balls. I also like the underdogs so I want him to win this. Fury is so cocky. I like him but there's this thing with fighters who are like that you either love them or hate them. He reminds me of McGregor.

It's going to be a good fight to watch for sure. I voted for Usyk in the poll. I feel like Fury has so many wins to his name that people are biased towards him in this. There's really a decent chance this won't go his way.

Well, it is really unavoidable that many will be biased about Tyson Fury, and people love him because of his egotistic demeanor and there are people like you who like Usyk because of his humble demeanor, and we can surely compare both fighters but I am not looking at their attitude but what can they do inside the ring, I think that is more important, they are boxers and it is normal for them to hype up their fight but at the end of the day they will eventually respect each other,

This fight probably isn't going to happen until mid next year given Usyk has stated he won't fight this year but Fury v AJ is hotting up now. I thought Fury was just doing his usually shit-chatting to try grab headlines but Fury has said he's offered him a 60/40 split to fight him Nov/December this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mWQVajOXMo

If that's to be believed AJ is not going to get a better deal than that. Something tells me that Fury isn't entirely serious about this fight though or there's something he's not telling us. It's rumoured that Fury already has a bum lined up for December but I'm sure he could easily ditch him for AJ but squeezing a fight of this magnitude in before the end of the year seems a stretch. Both Eddie Hearn and Frank warren were on Talk Sport this morning confirming the offer has been made and received but neither talked numbers. Hopefully we'll hear something from Hearn soon but I agree with Hearn at 1:48 here: https://youtu.be/8IksjnZS7QU?t=108

Well, this thread is way too early if they would likely fight next year, but it is alright, a Tyson Fury VS Anthony Joshua could be a treat to watch, but this is the 1st time they would likely clash or a Deontay Wilder VS Anthony Joshua aswell, but Tyson Fury is likely Clashing with Joshua first, but if their promoters would agree on this then we could see a fight maybe this year,

Andy Ruiz vs Luis Ortiz schedule was not normal. Big boxing events happened during Saturday nights but it was different. Andy Ruiz was reluctant in letting his hands go. He looks like saving his stamina for the late rounds and because of that Luis Ortiz was able to finish the whole twelve rounds. The fight was a draw if not for the three knockdowns by Andy Ruiz. Two judges had it 6 rounds each and the other judge had Ortiz seven rounds to Ortiz's five. I was amazed the fight attracted many fans.



It was really a weird Schedule but I think this is a special fight given that kind of date, and yes if not for the knockout this could be a draw, but surely despite his physique, Andy Ruiz is one fast boxer, that could surely give a volume of punches to his opponent While Ortiz might have that power punch that speed from Ruiz have really dominated the fight, and just like I have said it was really a great fight to watch but I am expecting more from Andy Ruiz he also defeated Anthony Joshua but surely he needs to fight more it is good to see him win for now,


This month of September is the best month of the year for the boxing industry all these fights are exciting to see,  two are for the undisputed title and one for a trilogy that everyone is waiting to happen, and we have something that will make this yar a memorable year, the much-awaited fight between Fury and Joshua with special sanction coming from WBC, and this could happen in the month of September, I wonder with all these great fights what will fight will be the fight of the year.

It surely is the best month to have for these exclusive fights but before we go into the most exciting fight on September 17, we will be having an all-girls boxing event and here it is

Big news coming in MMA world as Nate Diaz announced launch of his own combat sports promotion called Real Fight Inc, and he is going to apply for promoter license.
Diaz has plans to host MMA, boxing and jiu-jitsu events, so he went the steps of ex-champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Difference compared to Khabib is that Nate Diatz could also be active in fighting, so he is going to stay active.
Exact date for first event id not clear, but we are going to find out more after his fight with Khamzat Chimaev in UFC.

He indeed prepared for this by leaving the UFC, and I wish there would be promoters that would support his own combat sports and unlike Khabib Nurmagomedov that already has some sponsors, and indeed even though Khabib is the face of the Eagle FC combat sports he has a team that will help him with a lot of things and he surely got his sponsors like Elite Development, FLXcast, and a cryptocurrency Saitama token that has a current value of $0.00169815 USD so pretty much it is ready to go, while that Real Fight Inc, is not yet established but wishing it success,


Good to hear that. But I dont think Diaz brothers will have similar support and sponsors Khabib Nurmagomedov has. They are simply on the different level of media. I cant even imagine what promotion will Nate has. As he has a problematic childhood, it might be that the fight in his promotion will be semi legal, or rules will be weird. By looking on Diaz brothers, their lifestyle, I find it hard to believe their promotion will have high level of professionalism. Anyway, I might be wrong and good luck to Nate.

As I am reading your comments about the Combat sports of Nick Diaz, there is something that comes to my mind, well maybe USADA will be banned on his combat sports would likely the use of weed will not be prohibited, well you said the Diaz brothers will surely be setting their own rules and they would likely be fighting in it aswell, well after reading it all I surely now doubt if this could be a success, but I could be wrong, and let's surely hope it succeded aswell,
2632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 06, 2022, 03:00:20 PM
Union Berlin showed resistance against Munich with a modest squad and reached the result. This team continues to do interesting things in the Bundesliga. It is great that this club which has not seen the top league for a long time is holding on to the Bundesliga. This development of Union Berlin deserves commendation. They showed incredible resilience in the match. When the players from Munich were down they saw U.Berlin players next to them. They fight very well. Goalkeeper Rönnow defended his goal area well. I expect surprises from Union Berlin in the future.

In just a short time Union Berlin was doing all this, they just keep a hard time on Bayern Munich and I think their defense was surely upgraded, they are readying this ever since the last season when they landed the 5th position in the Bundesliga last season, I think that is a commendable spot and have given Freiburg a hard time I think even though Bayern Munich have such great players it is not like the usual Bayern Munich were Robert Lewandowski is still on the team, 1st Monchengladbach have exposed Bayern and now Union Berlin aswell, this is a sign that we might see a competitive season in the following future matchday of the Bundesliga,


In my opinion, Bayern did not play badly in the last two Bundesliga matches, as evidenced by the statistics, it seems that Bayern dominated
the match. Even when facing Monchengladbach or Union Berlin, Bayern created a lot of opportunities. The problem is that Sadio Mane still cannot
replace Lewandowski's role as Bayern's goal machine, it is proven that Mane is still playing inconsistently. Even Mane in the last two matches
in the Bundesliga has struggled to score goals, even though Bayern had dominated the match and also created many chances.

I think Nagelsmann needs to give Mane a chance to play as a winger. Because for Sadio Mane playing as a center forward is still not fully adapted.
Mane looks less effective as a center forward, looks like Nagelsmann should try to put Mane on the wing like when Mane played at Liverpool.
Because if I look at Mane's game at Liverpool, Mane is very effective when he plays as a winger. Next Bayern will play in the Champions League
against Inter, I hope Bayern can play better against Inter.

I agree, it is pretty much evident that they are still very dominant with the performance, but the following problem was their offense is not that good enough it was really lacking something for certain Goalkeepers to know where the ball is heading, they surely need to change tactics if they want to secure victory on this two teams next time,

I think Sadio Mane is now Bayern Munich Left Winger while Jamal Musiala is the attacking midfield I think Nagelsmann has seen the ineffectiveness of Mane in that position he surely done mistakes and that is not a good sign and he can not handle the hole that Lewandowski has left,

The match between FC Augsburg and Hertha was an interesting one, but I have to say that Hertha was the better team in this game.
As a result, they have taken advantage of their chances well. In addition, the second goal, which was scored through a counter-attack, was absolutely incredible.
There was a lot of teamwork going on for them and it looked really good.

Augsburg has simply underestimated Hertha I thought that it was going to be a draw game but I was surely wrong, about it, and Hertha despite being brought back from being regulated has crushed Augsburg very clean,

The match between Borussia Monchengladbach and FSV Mainz was very exciting, as Mönchengladbach had been playing very well.
There was a chance in that match for both teams to perform well. But the problem started when Mönchengladbach got down to 10 men.
As a result of the red card that Ko Itakura received, they also scored from the free kick that they were awarded. As well as that, Mainz's defense was also really impressive.

It was the mistake of a player on the Gladbach side, that completely made them lose, but surely we can not blame it on just 1 man the team play was very out it was like they are not the same team that made Bayern Munich have a hard time on pretty much they are still out from it,

Speaking about Chimaev. There is a new hype in the media about Chimaev vs Costa conflict. You can take a look on it @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOzZi0iliPI.

The story behind it - in recent interviews, Costa called Chimaev as a "fake gangster". Chimaev asked Costa why he even talk about him? Did he wanna have a fight? Costa agreed, but refused to go down the stairs for a fight.

What do you think about it? An artificial conflict for future fight? Just two guys being "I am the best here" ? Costa got scared of Chimaev? Crazy Chimaev wants to brawl in few days before fight under UFC contract? Cheesy

That was a crazy altercation between the two Paulo Costa was just hyping this in my opinion just like he did with the Israel Adesanya fight, but regarding this Khamzat Chimaev is really serious about getting a brawl that is one crazy dude, in my opinion, a Welterweight fighter versus a Light Heavyweight fighter that will be epic on who's gonna win, imagine Paulo Costa has the weight advantage while Chimaev can be intimidating if UFC can make a special fight on fighters that are in different divisions that would be epic at the same time could cause a ruckus on some occasions, just like on Illia Topuria altercation against Paddy Pimblett a Bantamweight versus a Featherweight I wish Dana White can make a special fight for fighters that wants to settle their score inside the ring that would be hype up and at the same time many fans will truly want that, for me, I want to see that fights,

I’m already looking forward to the Diaz fight this weekend. It’s going to be his last fight in the UFC and I think after this he moves on to chasing the money fights. I suspect he’ll be Jake Paul’s next opponent as that’s probably his best chance at a nice payday. I don’t see him winning this weekend though. Dana definitely rolled out the killer to put him on the floor for his final fight.

He really pulled a really crazy killer that wants to fight even a Light Heavyweight fighter I really wish Nate Diaz success when he leaves the UFC, I am not a fan of Diaz but I think he is a great dude that wants the money when he fights, a Jake Paul could be a good fight aswell even though he losses to Paul he can still rack a lot of money from it, but I doubt if he's not going to pull a crazy stunt on that fight aswell, but getting him in the bare-knuckle fight is pretty much what he likes so let the dude do it, but still great support in everything that he done,

^^ Regarding the Flores vs Mares fight. I had Flores winning, by a slim margin in my unofficial scorecard. Just to note though that Mares comes from a 4 year lay-off and the fight is in his hometown and he is a Al Haymon fighter if I can remember it correctly. So there is some biased in terms of the judges, at least that's how I saw it.

He had a good first 3-4 rounds, as he caught Flores several times. But Flores fought back up to the 10th round. And he has won the last 2 rounds for me and that should be enough for him to secure this victory by at least split decision.

That is why I have posted it here, I am pretty much puzzled about the 2 Draw result fights and regarding the Mares VS Flores fight I was really puzzled about it, Abner Mares has a good start and during the 5th round he has slowed down a bit maybe he is now feeling the fatigue if you see on this LINK Abner Mares is likely got many rounds 1st to 4th rounds the 6th and the 8th rounds that is for Mares, that is 6 rounds in total while Miguel Flores got 5th, 7th, and 9th to 10th rounds that will be just 4 rounds in total, while on the score cards Patrick Russell has given 95 for Mares and 95 for Flores while Zachary Young give 95 for Mares and 95 for Flores aswell and with Rudy Barragan has given 96 for Mares and 94 for Flores making Abner Mares the winner, but why the Draw result? I was really puzzled by this actually



well on the next event on boxing we got Claressa Shields VS, Savannah Marshall, on September 10, Canelo Alvarez VS Gennadiy Golovkin, on September 17, and the most awaited and I think I love to really see the Devin Haney vs. George Kambosos Jr. on October 15, on the later days I will surely post the said events here,

The way that they stopped Breanna Stewart is really unexpected now that Stewart is being exposed I am confused about what the Seattle Storm could do next that the Las Vegas Aces stopped their main player, is it time for Sue Bird or Tina Charles to take over or the Seattle will come up with a plan to make Breanna Stewart effective again, I guess this is some of my questions that I think pretty much exciting for us if what may happen next, but I will now give my predictions and picks for tomorrows game,

Connecticut Sun VS Chicago Sky

Stake odds for this game are 1.83 for the Sun while 1.87 for the Sky, right now both teams don't have any injuries right now Chicago Sky is in the lead 2 - 1, right now the Sky may take their previous win as momentum to win against the Sun that is in the home advantage, or if the Sun could take revenge on their next game, for me it really is a close game that is why pretty much it is hard to predict who's going to win but I am faithful to the Chicago Sky, but both teams are really great in my opinion but still my pick will be the Chicago Sky,


Seattle Storm VS Las Vegas Aces

Stake odds for this game are 1.85 for the Storm while 1.85 for the Aces aswell, this game is pretty much interesting aswell, do the Storm will have a counter for the defense of the Aces against Breanna Stewart or will they focus more on giving the shots on both Sue Bird or Tina Charles pretty much they can build a momentum for the other players of the Storm, when there are a heavy defense for Stewart but I I guess we will need to find out on the next game, for me I will still go with the Seattle Storm

I would like to talk about the recent fight on September 4, 2022, the Ruiz vs. Ortiz fight in this event there are 2 draw fights, I really don't expect a draw for an event like boxing but it really happens,

Andy Ruiz Jr. VS Luis Ortiz

In this fight, Andy Ruiz Jr. won the fight it was a devastating loss for Ortiz I thought that the fight will eventually end in the 2nd round because Ruiz have knockdown Ortiz 2 times, but Ortiz surely recovered and really has the heart not stop the fight, but Luiz Ortiz after that knockdown he is now moving backward and was hurt by Ruiz, no doubt about that that fast punch from Ruiz really is remarkable giving a volume of punches on Ortiz winning the fight via Decision, I thought that he would win via knockout but Luiz Ortiz is just clinging very well, I just watched the highlights of the fight and I surely forgot about this event because I was busy, and this thread is not popping in my radar, so I was really late,

There is the two-draw fight that I am talking about this event, really unexpected to have 2 draws on an event, but here we have,

Abner Mares VS Miguel Flores - DRAW

Oscar Perez VS Anthony Cuba - DRAW

Chimaev vs Nate fight is going to be like that - Nate will take a beating, but will throw a good clean combination (which wont be enough to win the fight). This will be simular to a fight with Edwards, took beating but everyone remember how he dazed Edwards and basically stole the crowd. Nate will lose, but will show a good fight and will be a “winner”.

Nate Diaz has so many fans that you can hear them cheering for him, But even though he has many fans the level of people believing that Chimaev will win is huge, Stake odds are 1.08 for Chimaev while 9.20 for Diaz, If Nate Diaz wins and if you bet around 0.001 BTC for him you can gain an estimated value of 0.0082 BTC on Stake that will be $161.98 USD but for Chimaev that 0.001 BTC you can only gain an estimated price of 0.00008 BTC converted to USD $1.58 not a profitable gain unless you are a whale and can put a ton of money for Chimaev, for certain Nate Diaz will still be a winner in the eyes of his fans but Khamzat Chimaev will surely come out to this unscathed

Gane deserved the win, I'm not going to dispute that. However, many of us probably thought Gane was going to outclass Tai more than he did. That was a close fight. The only difference maker for me was the jab by Gane which was superb, but the real game changer was those front kicks to the body. Tai got hurt maybe five or six times with those, and as soon as that happened, he was dropping the hands. It was quite obvious for everyone watching he wasn't going to be able to continue to take those, and Gane knew it too.

So, it was the beginning of the end from that point onwards, but Tai still hurt Gane, and even if you take out that overhand, he was touching Gane much more than I thought going into the fight. The thing is, I don't think either of these fighters will win against Ngannou, especially since there's holes in both mens game.

I will not take out that Right Overhand by Tuivasa it surely has strength in it and Gane also was surprised, that he was knockdown by that, he surely sees that overhand but there is no time avoiding it, I really think there is also an opening to Francis Ngannou aswell and many are not exposing I believe no fighter has a perfect game, skill, and technique, there will always be a hole in them, and pretty much I really don't know what happens in the 1st round Gane was really caught off guard, but eventually comes back and really know his openings for Tuivasa, I really respect what you think but for me, Gane can take on Ngannou again, and I like to see it now that Francis Ngannou is at 100%,

Almost forgot my results on the September 4 game pretty much doing fine on this game

Brighton & Hove Albion FC VS Leicester City FC GOAL 5 - 2 - WIN

Pretty much Brighton is having a blast on their shots, but they have a decent defense but Leicester still got 2 goals and Luke Thomas make an On goal mistake that added up to the score of Brighton, after his teammate Kelechi Iheanacho make a goal Thomas made a mistake after that, then a great goal from Moises Caicedo, has to Bring Brighton to a lead but Patson Daka has brought a tie next, then another mistake for Luke Thomas sliding on the penalty area bringing a free kick and a yellow card and that Alexis Mac Allister was the icing on the cake win for Brighton,

Manchester United FC VS Arsenal FC GOAL 3 - 1 - WIN

Arsenal has higher stats than Manchester but Man United have managed to get in 3 goals and Marcus Rashford really increased his caliber in playing but the result of the game can be very close I just like Manchester City that is why I went and bet for them and Anthony Debut with the first goal of the game, that was really a treat for Manchester United and even though Bukayo Saka made a birthday goal it was not enough because Manchester United is in the lead then Rashford have finish the game with another goal,

Here are the results for my picks on the games yesterday, and both picks lost

FC Augsburg VS Hertha BSC GOAL 0 - 2 - LOST

It was a close game in my opinion but Hertha managed to put in their goals, both Dodi Lukebakio and Marco Richter made it, in the 1st half pretty much both teams are struggling in getting their goal, then Filip Uremovic got a yellow card, while another second past Augsburg Carlos Gruezo now have gotten the yellow card then on halftime on the 51' Dodi Lukebakio made a goal for Hertha while Augsburg is still struggling then on the 90+3' Hertha's Marco Richter made another goal, I really thought the game would end up in a draw, Hertha manage to get in 2 of their goals,

Borussia Monchengladbach VS 1. FSV Mainz 05 GOAL 0 - 1 - LOST

Like Augsburg and Hertha, this game was close aswell, pretty it was raining yellow cards in the 1st half, Gladbach's Kouadio Kone got a yellow card then both Mainz players Leandro Barreiro and Lee Jae-Sung take on yellow cards then at halftime Aaron Caricol made his shot go in and a Red card for defender Ko Itakura,

What a mess.
Seattle Storm already had the win but the officials reviewed and added more time for the Aces to be able to get a catch and shoot and end the fourth quarter for an overtime deuce buzzer-beater by Jackie Young. Should've just fouled her and tried her at the free-throw line. Wrong decision by whoever was defending her.
Aces won and they successfully stopped Stewart's offensive madness in 3 quarters with a nonstop exhausting double-team strategy. Most of her points came from the 4th quarter where she caught fire.
A'ja Wilson, player of the game with 34 points and 11 rebounds.  Shocked

That OT has really caused them to lose against the Aces, they were exhausted so much that they can not handle it, and pretty much Breanna Stewart has done her all to win the game she got she got 15 rebounds and 20 points towards the game, but A'ja Wilson was really hot, she got 11 rebounds and 34 points for the Las Vegas Aces, I think the Storm needs to look further on her next time, they have a home court advantage and they blew it all the way, next game is another shot for them on their home court, they need to look further for possible mistakes they made,

Here is my pick for today's game in WNBA 2022 semifinals

Connecticut Sun VS Chicago Sky SCORE 72 - 76 - WIN

great job for the Chicago Sky, they really make it a team play for them, even though it was a close game, Candace Parker has  a double-double performance of 11 rebounds and 16 points, with Kahleah Copper getting 15 points, Emma Meesseman got 13 points and Courtney Vandersloot got 12, for the Chicago Sky in the win,

Seattle Storm VS Las Vegas Aces SCORE 98 - 110 - LOST

It turns out that OT has caused the Storm so much they are out of breath but A'ja Wilson just still playing while on the Overtime, while Brianna Stewart was shut to just 20 points but has got 15 rebounds towards the game but every player on the Storm have scored 2 digit points but it was sad that they lost this game, and Aces really amazing in my opinion,
