This is combat sport and I watched women compete for years in karate and kickboxing, and now in mma, no difference, it's just sports.

But it is different. I think most fights, women tap quicker, or weaker strikes KOs them. Racing is also sports, but we dont watch (I wonder if we even have) women Formula 1, MotoGP. Football - most popular sports on the planet. Anyone knows at least 5 good women players? Ask any one to name best football players, you will instantly hear Ronaldo, Messi, Pele, Maradona. Anyway, I dont like women MMA, I think this is not for them. It is ok to see smashed men faces, but not women. When we see a man with black eye - we think that he was either wrong, or defended his opinion. What we think when we see a women with black eye? Cheesy Poor girl.

We will surely have different opinions regarding this topic, and women and MMA for me OK if they like it why not if they can show what they are good at then why not, I think they are surely free to pick what they really want, it goes to show that we will surely have a different opinion regarding this, we can also have a debate regarding if you really like a woman to fight or not in this kind of combat sports,


This is mostly due to cultural stigmas and how the brain is wired. Women are wired to take fewer risks than men and are culturally brought up to have an inclination towards non sport things as that is reserved for boys. An interesting thing is that there was/is a rise of women skateboarders in some Arab countries as skateboarding is considered a child's game and therefore girls that are forbidden to play ''boys sports'' take up skateboarding. So the reason we don't see / know many good players, fighters, racers what have you, is that women tend to make up a much smaller percentage of people doing sports. Not because they would not be any good at it.

This is because in the old time women are likely to be oppressed many men think that women are just for household jobs, for some they are just mere tools or maids to clean the house, do laundry, cook every meal, or just nurture the young, but for the modern times I think right now there is different thinking that Woman are equal to men that is why there is a saying that if men can do it so are woman, I think thinking woman is not worth for anything dangerous has old thinking towards them, or maybe that person just don't want a woman to be hurt, because even though a woman can also do what men does they are still delicate in nature,

Pretty much Bellator doesn't have so much well-known roster as the UFC, so I think that is why you dub them as boring
Let me name just few of them everyone knows, Fedor Emelianenko, Yoel Romero, Patrício Pitbull, Cheick Kongo, Sergio Pettis, Vadim Nemkov, Usman Nurmagomedov, Gegard Mousasi, Ryan Bader, Cris Cyborg, and more.
Maybe they don't have all divisions full of famous fighters, I would never say they are unknown fighters with boring fights, but they have older roster than UFC.
I think Vadim Nemkov would be in top five in UFC light-heavyweight division, same as Usman Nurmagomedov for lightweight division.

Full Invicta FC 48 event is now available for on their youtube channel, and I think they streamed it live for free on same place.
This was night had four finishes and two decision wins and if you don't want to watch full fights they have short post-fight wrap-up.
If you think that fights between female fighters are boring you should watch some of this fights, and you will understand why UFC signed many fighters from Invicta, Cris Cyborg was one of them.

Well after seeing this I have never known that those familiar names were on Bellator once until I search their names on Wikipedia, but I am also talking to the Bellator now, I don't really know Bellator ever since but the first MMA sports that I have come across are UFC, I have just recently known Bellator and right now I am just getting started with some of their roster, but thanks for adding this up,

Yeah saw this one, hehehhe, the typical Broner, but it was really comical and once he open his mouth, even the host is laughing at him. At least he is still trying to sell this fight, and probably Al Haymon and Espinoza is also chuckling when they watch this press conference.

@YuginKadoya - Yes, I posted about the Danny Garcia fight here,

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5370631.msg60466186#msg60466186

Seems like everyone forget about him already hehehe, as he lost to 3 of the best WW we have right now, Spence, Thurman and Porter.

Oh! sorry, I haven't noticed your post, but I have added the whole fight event if anyone is interested because I am also interested in seeing Adam Kownacki VS Ali Eren Demirezen fight because after Adam Kownacki lost to Robert Helenius last year he recovered from the 2 consecutive lost he attained, and Demirezen is quite the guy with a great record,

And Jose Benavidez Jr. to Terence Crawford, with a TKO win, I think he really needs to pull himself up but I guess Benevidez Jr. for me needs more experience in fighting well-known guys, but surely this is a kind of bout I am interested to watch,



I don't think that he can also thrive in this division, he is good at 140-147 but I would say that fighting big guys, he was exposed and his left hook was not that effective anymore.

Maybe he will have a edge in talent, but power Benavidez is +1 for me.

As for his father, I do agree, both father trainer has a big mouth, so just imagine if both Lopez and Garcia fought and their fathers taking the limelight because of their loud mouth.

I agree he should stay in the division that would likely he can dominate, but maybe he wanted more, but for me, I think that Benevidez Jr, has the upper hand with power, but I guess Danny Garciathe  has the upper hand when it comes to experience he can win this if he can fight wisely, getting all of his arsenals on the fight, Garcia is already at 34 to the 30 Benevidez, but I think Garcia still got that speed, and technique, he just needs to be more technical in their fight,

In this today's game for League of Legends Champions Korea 2022, these are my picks for today highlighted in green are my picks

Sandbox Gaming VS Gen.G Esports

Stake odds for this game are 5.80 for SANDBOX while 1.11 for Gen.G, I really think Gen.G has a lot of potential and if T1 and Gen.G would clash on a match for me they may have a chance, of adding a loss to T1 but for now, SANDBOX has 7 wins and 3 losses, while Gen.G has 9 wins and 1 lost, and on July 13, when this two teams clash Gen.G won a 2-0 win over Sandbox Gaming, for me I would like to bet on Correct map score for 0 - 2 for Gen.G for 1.52 and my pick will be Gen.G.

DragonX VS Damwon Gaming

Stake odds for this game are 3.10 for DRX while 1.34 for Damwon Gaming, right now I think DRX can win this but given prior time Damwon Exceeded DRX's wins because right now DRX has 6 wins, and 5 losses, while Damwon has 8 wins and 3 losses, but their July 7 clash result was a 1 - 2 win for DRX, for this game it can be too close, but for me, it will be a repeat of the past, for this Correct map score I have 2 - 1 win DRX with 5.80 I may lose here but for me, I think DRX can regain a victory here to make they winning increase to 7, I will go against the favorite to win and this will be the 1st time I will go against a favorite because my pick will be DragonX,
2904  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: July 22, 2022, 04:12:33 AM

Just take a look at their records, and you'll see that Curtis has wins over the very top level guys, and his only losses have come to the current champion, and another top five fighter. Compare that to Tom, who is very much on the rise, but hasn't been really tested all that much. There's a massive difference. That doesn't mean Tom doesn't go in there, and knock Curtis out, but I'll be betting on Curtis while cheering on Tom.

I like Tom, and I think he's a brilliant prospect, but I do think this match up might have come a little too soon for him. He ideally needed a few more lower down opponents before Curtis. Especially when you look at his wrestling skills, but again his stand up is nothing to scoff at either.


I Believe you I really do, maybe I am just infected because of the hype, I have seen Curtis Blaydes's records I have seen his amateur fights and all the hard fight he fought surely Curtis Blaydes have the experience but why he is not the favorite here? This is like Cyril Gane the hype train is on him, but I am just seeing a different picture and I think I have seen something new to Tom Aspinall and if he can win against Curtis Blaydes then I think he proves that he truly can become champion, but I still think he can not win against Ciryl Gane but for me, I think he hasn't shown his 100% yet and this is truly something that I am holding with Tom Aspinall, but yeah this is a big gamble that I am taking,


I'm not sure it will be devastating to Nate. He's going to lose for sure but he could probably match his intensity and give a good show at least initially. Nate can also take a battering and won't give up easily. The only thing that worries me is Nate has been out of action for so long. He hasn't fought for a year and has only had 5 fights since 2016. I respect him for taking the fight either way. I'd like to see him do the trilogy with Connor but I've got a feeling he's going to bounce from the UFC after this fight.

Nate Diaz can really show heart in most of his fights, in this last fight I think even if he lost this he just needs to show what he really is made of, he might get bloodied but Nate Diaz will surely not going to stand down and will keep on moving, this fight could go on if Khamzat Chimaev decided to finish this on stand-up, but if this continued to the ground it is goodbye for Nate Diaz, but surely Nate Diaz will show his 100% on the fight just like what Glover Teixeira did on his fight with Jiri Prochazka, maybe this could be a banger of a fight, and recently Jake Paul has tweeted that he will be putting money on support with Nate Diaz to win versus fake Khabib,

2905  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: July 21, 2022, 03:56:28 PM
And so the game was settled pretty much I still get the right team because it is really consistent, So here is the result of the games today

T1 VS Freecs MAP 2 - 1 - WIN

Pretty much just like what happened in their previous games and I thought that Freecs will win again but that 1 win of Freecs on T1 was just mere luck, Map 1 was for Freecs, having a game stat of 61.1k gold, 17 kills, and 8 towers while T1 has 53.6k gold, 4 kills, and 4 towers, while Map 2 was for T1 With 64.8k gold, 16 kills, and 9 towers, while Freecs has 53.6k gold, 11 kills, and 2 towers and Map 3 which is T1 win again, with 70.5k gold, 11 kills and 9 towers while Freecs has 64.2k gold, 10 kills and 3 towers, naturally a T1 victory again, I have lost the Correct map score bet but I manage to win the team that will win,

Hanwha Life Esports VS kt Rolster MAP 0 - 2 - WIN

I really didn't expect Hanwha to make a 1 map win because kt Rolster is just average good in my opinion but Hanwha Esports is the worst team sorry Hanwha fans, pretty much Map 1 kt Rolster won with 58.4k gold, 13 kills, and 4 towers while Hanwha has 47.7k gold, 4 kills, and 3 towers, while Map 2 is another win for kt Rolster that has 58.7k gold, 8 kills and 9 towers while Hanwha has 53.7k gold, 6 kills, and 4 towers and I surely manage to win correct map wins, for this game, well and I am not that quite a surprise,
2906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: July 21, 2022, 02:36:01 PM

Yeah, Tom has fought decent opponents, but he just hasn't got the experience that Curtis has against the top guys. I consider Spivak a bit of a gatekeeper, and while Volkov is decent, he isn't going to become champion, and have the same fear that Ngannou has. Ngannou, Gane, Curtis, and even Derrick Lewis are also different gravy I think.

Like I said, I'll be supporting Tom, but if I were to put a bet on or make a prediction it would be Curtis, probably via decision due to his superior wrestling. Now, if Tom comes out, and dominates on the ground, that'll definitely put him in high regard. I just can't see that happening. The odds are also close suggesting the bookies are also thinking that Tom has the stand up advantage while Curtis has the ground advantage.


In actuality you are correct Aspinall doesn't have the experience in taking on Curtis Blaydes at all, and even though I have put high regard on him I am really torn between Blaydes and Aspinall But I really like Aspinall to win this, but for Curtis Blaydes, he is one dude you don't really want to mess around, In regards to Curtis great advantage on the ground I think that Aspinall is pretty much aware of that, and I think he is training for that, but for me, I think even though Tom Aspinall has great advantage on the stand-up he can not underestimate if Curtis Blaydes ha improve with the stand-up aswell,

I don't know if something's changing with Dana White's mind. However, it is clear that he is not on good terms with Nate Diaz. But I think feeding Nate to ranked 3 Chimaev is way too much. Although financially this works well for UFC. Chimaev already said that he will finance Nate's burial. This is gonna be brutal and then Dana will release Nate from UFC.


Another match that is surprising is between Petr Yan and the Pink Poodle. Is the UFC ready to let go its investments on Sean O'Malley after years of babysitting? Or this is just a drama and marketing strategy for O'Malley? Because I think O'Malley will back out from this fight in the next weeks to come. But I hope this will really happen. 

That was a hilarious photo, but yeah it seems that Dana White is really fed up with Nate Diaz, and for me, it is pretty obvious what Dana White really wants and the fight with Khamzat Chimaev is really a beast, and overall Chimaev is in the advantage from stand-up and on the ground, the percentage for Nate Diaz winning this is 5% saying this that percentage is the hope I have for Nate Diaz winning this,

And for O'Malley I really don't like that guy so for me it is OK if he can be eaten by Petr Yan, that is what I like to see, but in this fight, Sean O'Malley has the advantage with the height and reach but I'd like Petr Yan to Smack this kid well,

2908  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: July 21, 2022, 11:12:00 AM

To warm up for Bellator there is all female Invicta event tomorrow with six fights and main event Taneisha Tennant vs Olga Rubin in Bantamweight championship title fight.


WOW! I haven't noticed this post because pretty much busy with the other threads but that are many fighting kittens that I feast my eyes on, Olga Rubin lost to Taneisha Tennant that has an amazing record, well Olga Rubins, looks beautiful with long her, but the impressive fight was the two lovely kittens Kristina Williams VS Liana Pirosin that end up in a Submission pretty much I will watch the fight again,

I think you mixed something with PFL MMA, because Belaltor has regular events like UFC and they don't have any problem with sponsors and money.
Maybe they pay fighters more percentage than UFC and Dana White, that was reported by Cris Cyborg and other fighters that moved  from UFC to Bealltor.
List of all Bellator events shows many times they have more events in one month, with 286 so far:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Bellator_MMA_events

It is good that we have Bellator to back us up when UFC doesn't have any even on the weekend or if they are on Hiatus for 2 weeks, pretty much even though UFC is more popular than Bellator, the quality of fights in Bellator is non-other aswell, for MMA fights I totally recommend these 2 aswell, but still going back to One Championship to support my fellow Filipino fighters,

I know that compared with PFL or maybe One, Bellator has also a lot of event, but there are huge pauses between them. Maybe I am already used to watch UFC every week. I dont know. Maybe because UFC is more popular and I hear UFC more often than Bellator. But I have already built a vision, that Bellator events are rare and often have boring card.

Are you planning to watch Invicta tomorrow? I just cant force myself to watch women fighting. It was shocking to see a women fight in UFC, now there is a women fight in every UFC event and they even have their own event... What is your opinion on women mma ?

Pretty much Bellator doesn't have so much well-known roster as the UFC, so I think that is why you dub them as boring, but for me, there are a couple of fights in Bellator that I really like and have taken a list of fighters that are worth watching, and just like the UFC at 1st glance, I don't really know anything about them but when I tried to it more frequently I am now more familiar with most fighters I think you just need to watch more Bellator just to familiarize with certain fighters,

Pretty much I am late for posting this game but it is not finished yet but I have made a bet beforehand,

So these are my picks for the    League of Legends Champions Korea 2022 highlighted in green are my picks

T1 VS Freecs

Right now the fight is about to start their Map 3 game so both teams gained a 1 - 1 Wins and are pretty much in progress with the game, Freecs have taken the 1st map but T1 gain the 2nd map and they are really crushing this into the 3rd map as I am posting this, Freecs have won a lucky win over T1 back on June 29, with a 2 - 1 win, Right now T1 had 9 wins and 1 Loss that they acquired against Freecs, while Freecs has 4 wins and 6 losses, for me that Freecs win ain't T1 is just lucky and this match my  pick was T1,

Hanwha Life Esports VS kt Rolster

Stake odds for this game are 3.40 for Hanwha and 1.29 for kt Rolster, Right now Hanwha Life Esports has 1 win and 9 losses, while kt Rolsters has 5 wins and 5 losses, back on July 3 kt Rolsters win against Hanwha with 2 - 0 so for me, I think kt Rolster have an advantage here, Hanwha pretty much hasn't had a good record and only got 1 win throughout the league, this could be really bad for Hanwha Life Sports, so my pick is kt Rolster,
2910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul v Hasim Rahman Jr / Amanda Serrano V Brenda Carabaja co-main event Aug on: July 21, 2022, 10:00:14 AM
This appears to be another payperview joke from the promoters to scam fans. Something similar to a pump and dump ICO to steal your money hehehe. Also, why will Jake Paul not challenge James Morrison, the fighter who knocked out Hasim Rahman?

Well, I have read that the purpose of this match against Hasim Rahman Jr was to prove that Jake Paul is legitimate and that he is serious with his boxing career, or just to add legitimacy to his records because his past fights were with a retired MMA fighter and not really a boxer, well we can say it is only a stunt aswell, just to fill out the need of his boxing records, and why is Hasim Rahman Jr. and not McKenzie Morrison I don't know maybe Morrison doesn't want anything to do with Jake Pauls antics and Hasim Rahman Jr. really needs money for this fight that is why he approved this fight,

Why not bet on Rahman instead, since we could expect anything from Jake ? Who knows what could happen. Maybe a "boxer" will be able to knockout "blogger" ? Dont underestimate Rahmans amateur career. Google say he has more than 100+ in amateur fights, while Jakes whole career looks more amateur than pro Cheesy If only there will be a tricky clause in their contract, that states no KO allowed.

For me I am looking at their moves and reaction time to every strike, I'd say Jake Paul may have an upper hand, I don't really like the records, but I think Skills and technique will provide good results here, I don't really like Paul Jake but I think he is making an epic win here, he surely is an amateur after all so if he beats a Profesional boxer, that doesn't have any decent fights in my opinion maybe he can put a good show on other professional boxers aswell, anyway, I will be taking Jake Paul here so yeah maybe he can really do it,

Hasim is a big man as well wherein for sure if jake became careless on this match surely he will not last and will end up knock out on just one mistake.  If he has speed and good footwork it will not be a problem.. But unfortunately he doesn't have such ability yet..

I don't know why but am I taking the side of Jake Paul, well not really, and maybe well I don't really like Jake Paul, but for this fight, I really think he is ready enough in taking Hasim Rahman Jr. from his previous fights against Tyron Woodley from the 1st and 2nd fight I have seen changes in his style he is like adapting quite fast in his 1st match with Woodley I can see some advantage but maybe there might be some that will say Tyron Woodley was paid to lose I really think not if this is the case then the fight with Hasim Rahman Jr. will be a win again by Jake Paul, but if not that 2nd fight against Woodley was an adaptive Jake Paul and downloaded all the movement of Woodley, I am pretty sure Jake Paul has that,
2911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 21, 2022, 08:50:07 AM
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/34273332/sources-james-harden-philadelphia-76ers-agree-two-year-686-million-deal

It's official Harden inked for another 2 years restructuring his contract.  He has made his dough and people saying he is sacrificing for the team, didn't he only have 1 year left anyway so now he locks in for 2 more years with the sixers.  I get it he lowered his per year but avoids dealing with free agency and still banking 66 mil over 2 years.  All the while staying in his preferred city.

Well, I guess this is a good thing for him, he made this decision thinking of ways he could get a ring this season, I really think it is not a bad choice, getting into a trade will surely not solve his problem, and I think he is losing so much time right now and needed this opportunity and sacrificing some of his salaries is kind of not a loss to him either but a pretty much gain for the Philadelphia 76ers in my opinion, many teams are doing their all for the next season, and I think James Harden is thinking of ways on his own aswell,


According to the article, he has a player option in his 2nd year, which was on the 2023-24 season.

What's the possible thing that can happen for him after his 1st year in the Sixers?

- if the Sixers are still a failed team next season, Harden might use his option to become a free agent again and finds another team
- if the Sixers finished decently next season, maybe ECF or NBA Finals, he might stay on the team

It is really insane how the 76ers are pushing their boundaries in giving the option to Harden, but I think it is a good call and they don't really have any option left, and with their financial status as well that is why James Harden is cutting his salary just to compensate with the 76ers lack in resources, and maybe a valiant thing for him to do, although cutting off his salary will still give him much amount left, well maybe the Philadelphia 76ers will now have a chance in entering the NBA finals next season but this is just my speculation and I really love what James Harden is doing now,

2912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: July 21, 2022, 05:51:59 AM

I was shocked when i readed the news from Dortmund about Sebastien Haller and that he got a cancer on his testicle.
I was watching an Interview from Edin Terzic yesterday and he said that he will get all the Help that is needed and has fully support from Dortmund.
Really sad that this happend as i think Haller is the exactly the player that would fit into Dortmund as a striker.
Fingers crossed that all goes well and that he will be recover fast and get over it.

I was in shock as well, and it was an unlucky pick for Dortmund but it was a very Frustrating thing for the whole Dortmund community knowing that the newly Dortmund player can not play in the next season, because when the surgery finished he will surely heal for maybe half of the season or even a season, we can not really know for how long, and from healing state, his playing condition will surely be shift and he needs to get back in shape again, I think this could be what may happen to Sebastien Haller, and to Dortmund for the time being,


Honestly, that is what Bayern Munich does. If they see any player who is giving them any type of trouble they buy that player. That does two things. First of all that takes away any competition from Bayern Munich in the league. And secondly, Bayern Munich has become a lot stronger than before.

So this is another reason why Bayern Munich generally does not do very well in the Champions League. They don't have enough competition in the Bundesliga. That’s why they are not getting ready for any tough competition outside the Bundesliga.

Therefore, they don't seem to do very well when they play against stronger teams like Liverpool, Manchester City, and Real Madrid. Don’t get me wrong, they can easily reach the quarterfinals or even the semi-finals. But that is obviously not enough, is it?

Bayern Munich does very well to eliminate any kind of competition that they have in the league but I think that is only hurting them in the long run.


It seems that they are really doing it just to be the best in the Bundesliga, well it seems that they will surely be bought anything that post a threat to them but upon selling Lewandowski I think they are only buying players outside the Bundesliga, maybe they are now aiming for the championship outside the Bundesliga, but this is just speculation and I am still looking for some news regarding this, well, for me if they can not train any players that have potential then those players will not blossom, and if they aim to just buy players that may post a threat to them then it was a bad decision in not taking care of their young potential players, and right now that Lewandowski is not on their team I think they really need to push this kind of thing,


Mane is a professional player. He may or may not be the replacement for Lewandoski. But his energy and relentless pressing will fit in seamlessly with Nagelsmann's style of play. They have some quality players already in the team so I expect a whole good season. Mane can form partnership with either Muller, Gnabry or Sane like he did with Mo Salah and Firmino in Liverpool. His flexibility is a major bonus for his manager. Mane can play as a false 9, and is also equally adept on either side of a 4-3-3 - a concept that Nagelsmann has been toying with for quite some time.

I really think it will work out just fine for Bayern Munich even without Lewandowski, they will need to come out with a better plan and train their players even more, and now that Sebastien Haller on the Dortmund side has a testicular tumor, he may not play for the half of the season or 1 season, so there is still a huge chance for Bayern to take the championship this season, but I can not tell for the teams like Leipzig, and Leverkusen,

Here is the result of the game yesterday on League of Legends Champions Korea 2022

Brion Esports VS DragonX MAP 1 - 2 - WIN

As expected DragonX or DRX won against Brion Blade, I didn't expect Brion Blade will win 1 game because in their previous game DRX won without a single Brion win, which means my prediction on the Correct Score (In Maps) has lost, but I still got the 2nd map winner on this game, I'd never expect that Brion Blade can get the 1st map victory that game they really wreck DRX with 62.5k Gold and 11 kills and 10 towers while DRX only has 49.4k gold 1 kill and 0 tower that is why I was really shocked with the results, but still DRX manage to snatch the 2nd map and 3rd map of the game,


Nongshim Redforce VS Damwon Gaming MAP 0 - 2 - WIN

This game was all good Damwon Gaming really delivered a good winning rate even in their last match so it is all a good bet for Damwon, Map 1 stats RedForce has 44.7k gold, 3 kills, and 3 towers only while Damwon Gaming has 55.2k gold, 16 kills and 9 towers, double the score of Nongshim RedForce, and on the Map 2 NS RedForce has 21.5k gold 5 kills, and 1 tower only while Damwon has 23.1k gold, 16 kills, and 3 towers, and finishing the game really quickly, I got to admit it was a good bet for Damwon, I can't wait on the next game,

He also likes chocolates heheheehhee.



He has not yet faced a real fighter in the UFC, I reckon. However, his first fight can be considered a good challenge for him, but Luigi Vendramini does not have a high rank. Uncle Dana will only give him punchbags until Dana will not have a choice anymore and let hand sanitizer boy fight him for a main event hehehe.

He only got 2 fights in the UFC and he is already hyped up, well watching his recent fights from Cage Warriors he really is good at positioning himself and using his long feet to Coil his opponent like a boa constrictor if you get locked by those legs of Paddy, you can never get out and he can always position you into an armbar, and even though all of his opponent in the UFC are just punching bags, I think when it's time he got to show a more aggressive fight with the upper-rank fighters, Well there are a lot of Meme's about Pimblett and 1 was about his body size that I think was really a bad joke for him, but what do you know it is what it is, Pimblett just got legit metabolism, to gain and lose weight,


Yesterday I have googled Matt Stonie and found his channel. I think I've spend (or lost lol) 2 hours watching guy stiffing food into himself. What a strange way to spend an evening Cheesy That triggered grabbing salt crackers and beer, which later caused heartburn during whole due to lots of salt. Thanks YuginKadoya  Grin Grin Grin Maybe he has a fast metabolism, or after camera is off, puts two fingers in mouth and drop everything out. Maybe Paddy has a fast metabolism also, but his body transformations tells different.

Anyway, catch some good news - Khamzat Chimaev-Nate Diaz welterweight bout being finalized for UFC 279 on Sept. 10



This Autumn gonna be awsome!

It's good to hear that you've enjoyed Matt Stonie, back in the days, when I 1st saw a video about his eating competition I was very curious about how they are stuffing Hotdog sandwich in their mouth and shoving it in and swallowing it whole, and when I was watching his channel that he constantly eating a lot that when seeing him eating I would likely want to eat aswell, pretty much Paddy Pimblett, if not the same as a close metabolism like Paddy Pimblett but yeah just like you have said it maybe was him Matt Stonie when not on the focus of the camera, will vomit his food intake,

Khamzat Chimaev VS Nate Diaz is not so good in my opinion, against Chimaev I really don't know why did this fight happen at all it is not really fair for Nate Diaz to be pit to a lion, but for me it is still good news because I could then see Chimaev on action again, but yeah not a good match for Nate Diaz, I really don't know why he agreed on this fight yeah Chimaev for the win,

Looks like this time he really meant to win a championship because he thinks he finally land on a good team where he can actualize his effective gameplay. no competition whatsoever because only him and the big man Embiid. The guy has a chance if he can really manage to fit in the team but most of the time their chemistry is the problem. Now that he found a perfect team for his criteria, only destiny can stop him reaching his dream to be an NBA champion.

Joel Embiid is a great cut for James Harden offensive on the paint for Embiid while James Harden will carry on with the ball handling, outside shots, and capitalizing with assists, and with good teammates on the defensive side I think the Philadelphia 76ers will manage to come up with an incredible play utilizing Harden's Aggressiveness,


Harden has already been out of his prime for at least two seasons. In addition, his performance in the past playoffs was one of the worst in his career. By the way, it seemed to me Embiid was also disappointed in Harden, given that Joel said that Harden is no longer the same as he was in the Rockets. Anyway, it will still be interesting to see if Harden is able to improve his performance and win the first title next season or not.

I think he is desperate right now to cut his salary, to be shared with the other players I think he has a plan and really wants to win this, maybe this season we will see a fit James Harden for a change, but this is me on my wishful thinking on what can happen, but who knows, I know Harden can cut all of his fats in just a couple of months, and even though Joel Embiid doesn't like him, we need to wait and see if he transformed himself up to be ready next season or not,


I'm not really sure if that's the case on his athleticism. Maybe he wouldn't change his playing style if the rule on foul baiting wasn't changed by the league last season. He was one of those guys getting a lot of free throws and criticized for drawing fouls by getting contact from defenders in an unnatural way after all. Refs don't call most of them now.

he can sure rely on his teammates now, in getting on the ball, right now I think Joel Embiid is a likely good partner for him and if the Philadelphia 76ers can get a player that has potential and is likely to fill out the chemistry of the team, then I think Philadelphia 76ers will become a brand new team, yes Harden has a rough time during the last season, but I have seen even though it is not consistent he likely to score more than 30 plus points, I think he can get back in his usual scoring but not in his usual play, he can surely play smartly just like Luka Doncic but not as slick like Luka because Harden is not really like him,

That is a bad illness. I wish him all the best and that he beats the cancer quickly.
Illnesses never comes at a good time and I think the people in charge are thinking of Sebastien Haller in the first point. I am not worried that they will give him enough time. Dortmund have always done that with many players who have had an illness.

It was devastating news for Sebastien Haller and the whole Dortmund club what happens to Haller, I really think he is a great addition to the team that may fill in on the shoes of Erling Halland, from my viewpoint on his playing pattern he has a decent passing skill and great at goals aswell, but a Tumor on his testicle was the only one that can stop him from playing, he will surely need a lot of time to heal and he will be needing a lot of money for the surgery if needed,


It's still too early to talk about who will come out as champion. However, when looking at all the teams participating in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich is the team with the greatest potential to win the title again. We can't say it's not, because from the available data, Bayern Munich has everything. But still, I want the Bundesliga to be more competitive next season, at least Bayern Munich can't move freely.

Now that Robert Lewandowski is confirmed that he will surely go to Barcelona, and he says his farewell to the team, I think Bundesliga will be very competitive again and I am very excited knowing this, so right now in my opinion it is pretty much the Bundesliga next season will be pretty much unpredictable and will be exciting because Erling Haaland and Robert Lewandowski says their farewell from the Bundesliga, and right now I think Leipzig or Leverkusen has a chance on becoming champion, not a 100% but only a chance to be champion,


So far, it does feel like Sadio Mané will not be able to fill the void left by Robert Lewandowski. He had been dominating the Bundesliga for a long time prior to that. In terms of the most prolific goal scorer, he has also always been on top in the Bundesliga. And it will be extremely challenging for Bayern Munich to find a suitable replacement for Robert Lewandowski. At the moment, Sadio Mané doesn't appear to be able to fill that void.

But yes, I can be wrong. You know what, I actually think Dortmund might be able to give Bayern Munich a little bit of trouble because of this problem. If Bayern Munich sees that Dortmund is having a certain amount of success with Haller, I think Bayern Munich is preparing to buy that player as well.

Sadio Mane is still the best option, for Bayern Munich, but in addition to De Ligt I think they can prepare on their Defense, and in my opinion, Leipzig and Leverkusen would be a bigger threat for Bayern Munich and not Dortmund because right now Sebastien Haller was pulled out to the training camp because of Testicular Tumor so this likely Haller might not be competing for the next season of the Bundesliga, he would need more monitoring on his condition, but I really wish him to get well soon,
2917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul v Hasim Rahman Jr / Amanda Serrano V Brenda Carabaja co-main event Aug on: July 20, 2022, 06:22:10 AM
Jake is literally the best person you could have for publicity. The Paul brothers are just absolute gold mines in that department. I haven't seen anyone else do it better. Plus, Jake knows how to push people's buttons. He has basically built his career off being the "problem child" as he calls himself.

I actually don't think he is as much of an idiot, as he's portrayed. I actually think the more I've seen of him, the more calculated his videos, messages, and basically everything is. I imagine at the start of his career, and bad publicity he was just a normal kid bending some rules, but he has simply embraced that sort of reputation, and has literally built a boxing career off of it. Plus, I actually think he's going to win in this next fight, and I was part of the gang that would just like to see him get beat, so he can stop embarrassing the sport. However, I'm not sure if he's an embarrassment any more, he has done more for boxing than a lot of professional boxers.

The odds are fairly close, not massive odds either way.

Just like you, I am part of the gang who wants Jake Paul or Logan Paul to get beaten up by their retired professional opponents, to actually enjoy while watching them winning it, now in the fight with Hasim Rahman Jr., I am rooting for Jake Paul now, I don't know about the sudden change of heart but upon further review on Jake Paul's boxing, he is doing fine with his skill and technique he is a natural born fighter that is for sure, but for me, Jake Paul is and not Logan Paul, if there will be a fight between this two brothers I will be rooting for Jake Paul,


His latest stunt of pretending to be in the hospital with a broken back from carrying the promotion from this fight seemed a little juvenile.  He's fallen quite a bit from the "got your hat" promo that made him a legend heel.  This latest act is just plain dumb.  I feel like they're running out of ideas and probably so rich now that their effort is falling off.  Maybe he's just a little too close to his WWE brother, but this latest skit seemed like something straight out of the WWF in the 80s.  I hope he's less corny going forward.  His old antics were awesome.

That Skit is just for fun in my opinion, it addresses Hasim Rahman Jr. because his opponent is not really a well-known boxer, and I do believe this is just a way Ok with me, not a brilliant one but still he's doing something to sell their fight I think many will not appreciate what he is doing but I think this is for all his fans, it may not have that impact of a level but I think it is OK, or my taste is just poor, anyway I am just looking forward on what may happen on the event,


It may not happen now because Nate Diaz will be fighting Khamzat on UFC 279. This is according to this MMA news.

Anyway, there is no difference to the result, Khamzat is a lot dangerous than Jake Paul. Khamzat will double up and tuck Diaz over and pound him to the ground. Dana made a decision to end the career of Diaz and maybe after the fight, Diaz is on his own and can fight Paul after Oct. 19. His UFC contract expires this date. Source: https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2022/07/ufc-news-nate-diaz-contract-expiration-date



If both promotions will settle an agreement then this fight will surely go as it is, but for me, it is still on the horizon and pretty much Nate Diaz will surely need to make the decision for himself, but for me, a Nate Diaz fight will be great because of Nate's lot of supporters but for this fight to progress Nate Diaz will need to be in good shape first, but yeah Dana White is feeding Nate Diaz to Khamzat Chimaev, in hopes for Diaz to retire, so he can make his way to fight Jake Paul but for me, it is still in the Horizon and I think Jake Paul has the advantage on Nate Diaz as well,

Curtis Blaydes is not a fighter to be underestimated, he is even an Olympic-level wrestler. I was very positive for Curtis until Derrick Lewis was doing a silly dive and TKO was the whole thing. I used to say much better things for him, but now I can say that my mind has changed. His last two games were easier than Lewis. Now there is an Aspinal who has a winning streak against him, I think Curtis Blades' job is very difficult in this match. I think Aspinal will win this match.
I'm not sure why Curtis hasn't got a bigger fanbase than he does. He's a very accomplished fighter, whether that's wrestling or the UFC, as I said he has only lost against the best of the division. That's expected, especially at this weight class. It isn't like he has avoided the bigger fights either, which you could potentially say Tom has. Tom has had decent opponents, but if you compare the two, Curtis has had the more difficult journey to the top.

I don't know. I still think Curtis takes it.


That crazy dive was really unpredictable and uncharacteristic for Derrick Lewis to do so Curtis Blaydes doesn't have any option to react or to get ready for the impact, that is why it got him, but if the fight continues to the ground Derrick Lewis will sure lose to Blaydes, what I want for Blaydes is to get revenge 1st on what has Lewis did, that lost from Lewis I think was the cause for Curtis Blaydes to derailed Blaydes hype and fan base, for Tom Aspinall I really think he is fighting very smartly he's trying to fight whoever he can defeat and I think that is just an old strategy some fighters are doing I a not against it, but I don't like fighters that I know do such things,

I took a parlay on Aspinall, Paddy, Ciryl Gane, and Usyk (boxing). I hope Aspinall passes this tough test with flying colors.


Ciryl Gane? I think he will have a fight with Tai Tuivasa on UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Tuivasa this coming Sept. 03, and pretty much I am excited about that event because I will see Bon Gaming in action again, well for me Tom Aspinall will surely have a difficult time against Curtis Blaydes in my opinion, but maybe he can win against him, in my opinion, I am still 50/50 when it comes to Blaydes and Aspinall,

2919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: July 19, 2022, 07:27:39 PM
but Paddy trains his stomach in McDonalds and competes among best.
As long as he keeps on winning, then it's fine. I'm not too bothered about what he does in his personal life. I say live your life the way you want, within reason obviously. If he wants to eat a truck load of food, then as long as he takes the weight cut, and fight seriously I'm not too bothered. Kevin Holland is/was a fan favourite, and he was a classic example for a period of time not taking fights seriously, which did annoy me. Paddy does turn up in the cage, and seems to take it seriously once he's in there.

I don't think he's champion material though, despite the UFC trying to push that narrative.

With that age and eating a lot, his metabolism must be working double time, and if you know Matt Stonie the one that joins mostly on eating competition, whether it is a hotdog sandwich or Burger, or anything edible, he keeps on eating a lot on his channel but still keeps his shape, I think Paddy Pimblett metabolism is working just like Matt Stonie's metabolism and yes it is what they like as long as his winning the fight and keeping his weight check he can keep on eating anything he wants,

Well, anyone can be dubbed a champion by the UFC, and nobody really cares about it, Paddy Pimblett just happens to be very lucky to be given opportunities like this,

There are some good points, but I believe if this kid works 24/7 in gym, he could achieve much more in future. I cant see his aim in UFC or mix martial arts except money. He wants to fight, he wants a lot of money, he wants carefree life. But it does not look like he wants to be a champion. I know that you are big fan of Israel Adesanya, so lets compare them. According to instagram, both like junk food and wasting their lives. I even think that Adesanya is having fun much more than Paddy (anime, parties, shopping, sweets, cars). But he is a champ and can afford it. He is working in gym. Ever seen Adesanya being fat? Even IT guys at my office look better than Paddy Cheesy With Paddy - I bet this guy spends most of his free time in pubs with beer and junk food. He will a star until he meets someone more or less skilled, then he would have 2-3 looses and everyone will forget about him.

Don't forget about Hentai, (Is that word allowed to be used here?) If Israel Adesanya can make money like that for being a champion why not Paddy Pimblett aim for the same goal, to have much money so he can do whatever he wants, of course maybe he doesn't want that kind of exposure, but still if Paddy Pimblett keeps on winning his fight, he will then rise to stardom, even with something like that anybody can be something he wants to become, and there are still a possibility that Paddy Pimblett can have what he wants he can also have something that Adesanya have

After looking on Hasim Rahman Jr stats on boxrec it looks to me that he is another "pro" boxer that has been fighting with trash. Same as Tommy Fury. I find it strange, that Jake is going to fight this guy, because they had sparred before. It looks that Jake could not find any fighter that has a name and is interesting to fight with him. He has picked Hasim Rahman Jr and their fight will be sort of another sparring. They with theatrically fight, but their fight will be just a filler to fill card spot, just not to make this event cancelled.

I also notice it, Hasim Rahman Jr seems just fighting with a nonpro boxer, and it seems like he has the moves but it's's kind of slow for me, well, this is just my opinion but the way Hasim Rahman Jr box it seems Jake Paul is the one that is professional, all opponent of Hasim Rahman Jr is not a legit boxer, kind of? but they move like amateurs getting into Rahman's range and didn't move like a real boxer, but for me, Jake Paul has the advantage here, he got the speed, and power while Hasim Rahman Jr had the strength he doesn't have the speed to reign punches to Jake Paul,


It'll be interesting to see how much Rahman is actually getting of the purse. I imagine Jake Paul has demanded a rather large percentage of it. Rahman gets exposure, but if he gets knocked out like Jake's last opponents its not the type of exposure he wants.

Honestly, I don't know enough about Rahman to even comment on how this goes. I don't really know how well he boxes, and how he matches up to Paul. Jake wouldn't have taken this fight if he didn't think he could win, especially since they've already sparred. I imagine this was always going to be lined up, and Rahman was the fall guy if anything went amiss with Fury. I imagine, due to the problems the Fury family has had recently with being banned, due to association with certain criminals, Jake might've already seen this coming.

I have seen Hasim Rahman Jr and how he box, for me he is just decent, not that explosive and there is no awe in his movement, if you would watch his highlights over Jake Paul you will ask why did Jake Paul take this fight, I'd say Hasim Rahman Jr has decent boxing, but Jake Paul has perfected the way he KO his opponent and his strength is a big factor in this fight and his speed, many are saying Jake Paul can take this, right now many are in favor for Jake Paul to win here,
