I think it will be difficult for Manchester United to allow a talented striker to leave the team at this moment where Manchester United got a new manager. Cristiano Ronaldo has many strategies to demonstrate in next season to make Manchester United fans happy because this season performance was very poor for their like which next season will be more better than this season. I think Bayern Munich will allow Lewandowski to finish next season since they have signed in mane the formal Liverpool striker which will really help the team to perform well in next season.

Like I have said in my recent post, there is no way for Manchester United to give Christiano Ronaldo, to Bayern Munich and likewise, Bayern Munich doesn't want Ronaldo in their team, at 1st they msg Ronaldo to sign with Bayern Munich but later on declined it so sad to say for many fans to want Ronaldo on the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich I think this will have to wait and add up to the fact that Robert Lewandowski will not get out Bayern Munich next season,

I can say that I do not find the possibility of Leverkusen to beat Bayern in the league too realistic.  In my opinion, the only team that can beat Bayern would be Borussia Dortmund.  They also lost Haaland.  Good players to fill their place should be transferred.  Dortmund is a team with very good players.  They could be a little better.

If you look realistically, then no team has a chance to get around Bayern. Usually an "average" or top 2 team has a chance to beat the top 1 when the top 1 gets into a generational change, then one or two seasons of the top 1 is weakened. But in Bavaria, this process is put on stream and they are gradually replacing players all the time (the situation with Lewandowski illustrates this well) - they even find replacements for the stars. In order for Dortmund to become at the level of Bavaria, they need not only to make a profit and be satisfied, but to invest this profit in the players and the club, in fact, Dortmund's income is only two times lower than Bayern's, but the results are incomparably worse.

Well, fact check this is how Bayern Munich dominates the Bundesliga and with financial Suppression and likely Bayern Munich can buy players that have a higher price,s and if that player is available, they can actually get what they want if given a chance but with a club like Barcelona it is pretty much hard for them to get Robert Lewandowski, a player that really wants to play for their team, and add up an increase of price for Lewandowski that sunk Barcelona's hope to get the polish striker,


The thing is it doesn't seem like Cristiano Ronaldo wants to stay in Manchester United. but at the same time, it does not feel like he wants to move as well. so he is in a confusing situation right now and a lot of online media is trying to make the best out of this situation by making interesting news.

Media or an article will surely write exaggerated news for readers to be confused and gets interested, in reading I really think this is just to boost their reader's, most of them are using this kind of method to trick most people,

-snip-

I don't think that Serge Gnabry is fitting the centre-forward position of the team. Because he is mainly a right winger and he played like that in nearly all of the games of the team too. It is his most productive position and we can understand that from his statistics in the same season as well. He got 10 goals and 7 assists in 23 games. Mane is also not much different than him as he is mainly a left winger too. I remember that he played a striker for Liverpool in some games and did a wonderful job too. But it would be better to benefit from these players in their natural positions.

As a result Bayern Munich would absolutely need a striker in that case.

I know that Gnabry is a Right Winger I am talking about the position in making goals, in the previous season I have seen his style when playing and I think as a partner in making goals with Robert Lewandowski I think he fits the bill in giving Bayerns crucial goals, but as a replacement with the position of the Centre Forward there is Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, to do that job and he joined Bayern Munich on Oct 5, 2020, and his contract will expire on Jun 30, 2023,

But the good news for Bayern Munich is Robert Lewandowski is likely to stay because of the high Price Bayern Munich has given to him, for the trade on Barcelona, so Robert Lewandowski is still staying for the next season, I think he will be a professional player and taking aside the beef he has with Bayern Munich,


It's true that Serge Gnabry is more suited to playing as a winger or an attacking midfielder, to be a striker it looks like Gnabry doesn't have
a good finishing. Although I admit Serge Gnabry also often scores goals for Bayern, but if he play as a striker he will not play optimally.
Instead of Serge Gnabry it is better to put Sadio Mane as a striker if it is true that Lewandowski leaves and Bayern have not found a replacement.
But it would be even better if Bayern bought a new striker to replace Lewandowski, hence the rumors linking Bayern to Ronaldo. Because if it was
true that Bayern could bring in Ronaldo, Bayern made the right decision, because Ronaldo could indeed be a substitute for Lewandowski.
But if we look at Bayern's transfer policy, I rarely see Bayern interested in signing older players, but maybe for Ronaldo will be an exception.

But that rumor is just a rumor, Bayern Munich has said on a news article that they are not getting Cristiano Ronaldo and the Rumors are all rubbish, but they are getting Sadio Mane from Liverpool to strengthen their offense, even more, and they are not taking Ronaldo because Robert Lewandowski now wants a fresh start on Bayern Munich and getting all the drama behind as a professional player

I don't see a better outcome for Max than he had in the previous two. At best a split decision loss, at worst Alex takes his soul. That is all based on how Alex has improved in the last couple of fights, and how Max has stayed the same. It's understandable, the milage on Holloway, he's far past improving that much. Don't get me wrong, he is still relevant to the top 5 in the division, but not on a champion status.

Did you see the latest video of Israel Adesanya, he had Alexander Volkanovski picking their picks for the UFC 276 it was a great moment and hilarious at the same time, Izzy's channel name was FREESTYLEBENDER and I got to admit you got to love them and stake.com was really highlight in Izzy's channel and I think it is better to bet for Over and under for Alexander Volkonovski and Israel Adesanya, fight, and right now I think Max Holloway better kiss his dream goodbye, this is Volkanovski was talking about and he will win this fight for sure, and like you have said I also don't see Max Holloway having a chance against Volkanovski, I really think he is too much for Holloway, and will be defeated the third time,

Finally an event where every fight in main card worth watching.

Finally a fight fow cowboy Cerrone. To me Miller is stronger than Lauzon. Miller will choke Cerrone and Donald will retire, finally.

But the fights like Volkanovski vs Hollaway makes me sad. This is already a third fight. Like there are no other contestants in Featherweight? Two fights was not enough to figure out who is the winner?

Yes pretty much I am also excited with this event, right now the Cowboy may have perished against his opponent, but I will look even further on this, because I don't have any clue about his opponent, but I think if Donald Cerrone losses, he needs to retire,

Yes, Max Holloway is pretty much stubborn to let Volkanovski slip, I don't really know when Holloway would stop, and I think when Alexander Volkanovski still wins this fight Max Holloway should quit or retire the 3rd time you have defeated Alexander Volkanovski,



And in this event, there are two fighting kitties that I spotted and they are Jessica Eye, who I think has an Onlyfans account, and surely some juicy adult pictures in those accounts, but on these two fighting kittens I really like the other Jessica, and that is the Harley Quinn on the UFC Jessica-Rose Clark, and I will be vouching for these two kitties on the UFC 276,

I think I am both Casual Social Gamblers and Conservative Gamblers

I am not really seeking the thrill of the game but rather take experience into how it works if I see a new gambling machine or a new style of casino game that is where I will be taking my budgeted money in playing, I just try to control my time into playing the game and if I lose I will just call it a day and not force myself to win back that lost money,

And I am casually playing gambling when with my friends but I don't let them control what I will do because I initially have control over my decision, I rather not become very attached to just 1 game but if there is a good game that I really like I tend to focus on that game but with a limited budget, I am occasionally playing on casino's with friends or sometimes alone with my computer taking a couple hit on the slot online, but still not become very attached to it because I would rather want to make a bet on sports bookies than wasting it on casino type of games,

But it seems he did the same thing with Durant again? I mean he insistent not to get the vaccine and as a result he misses a lot of games and then disappear in the playoffs agains the Celtics, although we can attribute it to the good defense, but still they are swept in the first round. So not sure about the argument about him being a change person, as we have said, he is selfish. Even him attacking Nike publicly about his shoes and the design or lack of it.

I may be hypnotized when I said Kyrie Irving is a changed person, but again words on Irving's mouth, the change person thing is kind of my opinion only, but he sure said that he regret leaving Lebron James but maybe he is saying this to leave Kevin Durant again, well he actually like drama and to get his motive maybe he is doing some of that interview and confession to gain sympathy and surely there are teams that could potentially fall for that,


Maybe it was somewhere in podcasts of different players that's why you can't see it easily. I am trying to look for it but without luck to find it.


I can not see it again even in my history of watching videos, but yeah if this is what Kyrie Irving wants I think he really wants to exit Brooklyn Nets and maybe want to go to the Los Angeles Lakers now because that is what the rumors are saying, ut even though he has down crazy stuff in the past, he is still human and could potentially make mistakes no one is actually perfect but Rumors have said that Irving will be going back in forming a team with Lebron James and Anthony Davis on the Lakers while Kevin Durant would be playing with Damian Lillard on the Portland Trailblazers if this is true then this could be goodbye to Brooklyn Nets,

Well, Manny Pacquiao already retired in the boxing industry last year because he was already busy doing other works and the other reason is that he's running for president in the Philippines which eventually he lost last month. And as you stated, Manny Pacquiao is already an established business man, celebrity, a legend, a politician, and surely those things can support his family including his future grandkids.


Yup! he doesn't really need to work anymore, but as we know Manny Pacquiao is a hardworking man, so he will surely never going to sit down in his house, but I think if he is done with his political career he can sure just relax inside his house and enjoy his bonding with his family or Train his son into boxing, and right now Jimuel Pacquiao is pursuing boxing and I think this is not related with poverty anymore and these kid drive might be the passion he sees with his father Manny Pacquiao, I would surely love to see his growth if he can have a potential to surpass his father's record or do his it on his own,


Looks like John Riel Casimero doesn't like the idea of having a small bout first and climbing the rank again.

He requested to WBO that he should be assigned as a mandatory challenger for Paul Butler. That's the only way to face the current Bantamweight King Naoya Inoue who now unified the 3 bantamweight titles without fighting on any tune-up first.

I hope Casimero's request will be granted although if really granted, he should not waste his final chance to take a shot against Inoue and worked properly on his weight-related problems that keep him inactive for 2 fights already. That was alarming as it just shows that he is not fit to fight.

I truly wish the WBO would grant him his request starting at the bottom is surely impossible for John Riel Casimero right now, he is already at the peak of his age he can not restart again, he is already in his 32 years of age, but yeah he has done a terrible mistake so he should atone from breaking the rules,

But I am also hoping this will potentially not damage his career, I still wish that the WBO would comply with his request there are still many Filipino fans that expect him to fight on Butler then Naoya Inoue,



Bobby retired early because he is not as good as Manny and it's enough that one of the family is in boxing that is earning a lot of money to support their ambition, especially Politics. Well, let's see if Manny will come back in an exhibition fights as for sure he can still earn millions from that.

I really think Manny Pacquiao can still come back in an exhibition match against any given boxer or MMA fighter but I think a rematch with Floyd Mayweather is I like to surely see, but that Philly Shell defense of May Weather is something that even Pacquiao can not crack, and in my opinion, Pacquaio is not really the same not like Floyd Mayweather that still looks awesome with his slick moves, even though if he hasn't had the power anymore those Philly Shell Defense of his is pretty much one tough bastard,

I genuinely feel sorry for whoever has to fight Tsarukyan next. He's going to be proper angry, not only because he lost a close decision, but his wrestling was pretty much nullified, and in fact you could say he lost pretty much every exchange. Every shot he took was either stopped in its tracks or he got reversed.

Honestly, I see both of these guys at the top of the division, and the top five are probably a little worried about how well rounded the two are. Plus, Tsarukyan is super talented for his age, I didn't realise he was so young. Definitely has the upper hand on Gamrot there.

Arman Tsarukyan was really pissed, even though Mateusz Gamrot is comforting him he was so upset about the judge's decision, maybe all of that anger will be felt by the next opponent he would definitely release that, and pretty much he feels that he knockdown Gamrot, but there is not much praised for him I know the fight was really close, but this is Tsarukyan's first 5 round fight and he did it pretty much great but yeah likely he should aim for a submission or KO/TKO next fight so it will not be handle down to the judge's decision, because many were rob, because of the wrong scoring,



Pretty much the UFC Fight Night Tsurukyan VS Gamrot is over but the fights presence is still rich in my mind, I got to admit I am upset about what happened in the main event even though Tsurukyan surely needs to ensure a Knockout win and not let the judges make the decision I think this will definitely make Arman Tsurukyan think twice and he surely has the right to be angry with the judges,

For Shavkat Rakhmonov, a veteran Neil Magny was no match against the grappling and intelligent way Rakhmonov handle him on the ground, he surely has the caliber to go toe to toe with Khamzat Chimaev, but he is taking those baby steps to come up the top and I think it is the right way,

And on an Article that I have read Daniel Cormier thinks Khamzat Chimaev should have fought Belal Muhammad and not Colby Covington, but for me, I really don't care about who's Khamzat Chimaev should fight because even if it's Colby Covington or Belal Muhammad the result will always be the same and that is Khamzat Chimaev to face Kamaru Usman,

As for Bobby Pacquiao, well, he tried but he can't exactly match his brothers talent in boxing so he gave it up and support Manny on his road to greatness. That's already good for the both of them because Manny had remained to carve their last name in the industry.

There's only one great fighter in a family, so Bobby has to support his brother, and I think he already enters the politics too so he has found his place with the use of their money. Influence is what Pacman was able to achieve from his success in boxing, so even if he already retired in boxing, he is still very successful with his business and with the politics.

Well, I really think Manny Pacquiao can surely retire early he establish himself as a businessman, a celebrity, a politician, and a Legend, so he can already support his family but the thing that drives him to still push himself to his limits despite his age was the glory he can give to our country, pretty much that drives Manny to be a great boxer and I think Bobby doesn't have that attribute, but I am not saying that boxing is not his passion I think the drives and mindset a boxer will give and the sacrifices Manny Pacquiao is ready to give his all,


Oh really? That's good.  O2 arena is located in London, right? I believe that place will be full packed again as the English people are really fond and excited whenever they know that one of their best boxers are having a title fight. The venue will exactly produce good revenues for the both camps especially Bob Arum. Next up, Dmitrii Bivol next year.

The Problem is Bob Arum, doesn't want a Beterbiev versus Bivol fight, because Arum doesn't want to loan Artur Baterbiev to another promoter, and it could be a dead zone and nobody will watch it, and likely Beterbiev's good record will surely be tainted by the other promoter's boxer, so right now I surely am not in a good spirit that a Beterbiev vs Bivol fight would take place, it is impossible even if many fans really want that fight, I really think Bob Arum is just stubborn enough and really a selfish one,



The famous O2 arena and if I'm not mistaken, capacity is huge so good choice of venue for this big fight. And that is true, English love their boxers, recently Tyson Fury. And even if Yarde is not that famous like Tyson, for sure they will all come and watch him fight just for the support and of course they want them to upset Beterviev. Of course, Arum knows how big the money is going to be in this fight so him and Warren are going to talk without any issues. (greedy promoters).

Maybe I was wrong in an article that I have read, but surely enough Bob Arum really likes what would be profitable for him, and nothing more, a plan to really hype this fight and and giving those words that he doesn't like Beterbiev VS Bivol to happen but regarding that Bob Arum is a wise guy he surely know what is profitable and not,

Ben Simmons hasn't been playing any official game for a whole year now. I have big doubts about him when he recovers from his injury in the summer. It is hard to rely on a player who didn't play for a very long time. He was doing great before experiencing this. I think Brooklyn Nets didn't do the right thing by signing him already now. I would like to turn out to be wrong but we will see. I believe the Seth Curry transfer is really good and I liked him so far. Nets need a solid game as a team to do something next season.

I really think they need to build more chemistry, so everyone will have an idea of what their teammates can do inside the ring, and be familiar with anyone's play style, I think the Warriors are doing this further enough that is why they are doing that slick moves over those defenders, surely if the Philadelphia 76ers can pull something like that then they can surely have a chance next season, well, right now the Brooklyn Nets is in a dire situation right now and they mostly have many wrong decisions regarding drafts, trades, and are not very lucky with their current players,


Seems like it, maybe Irving can be seen wearing the yellow-purple jersey with LeBron James. I don't know about Uncle Drew anymore, he's really over his head already and his presence will be just a liability to whichever team he goes into instead of being an asset. Yes he's skillful and talented enough but the fact that he's selfish enough to turn back on his team mates was a clear reason that Irving is not good for any team, that's also why the Brooklyn Nets won't give him max deal.

I really think Kyrie Irving is regretful about what he has done in the past and pretty much can not change what happened he surely regrets when he leaves Lebron James on the Cleaveland Cavaliers, and he reflects on what he did in the past, I have seen an interview on how Kyrie Irving humbles himself on what he has done in the past, but I surely can't see the video anymore, and right now he is a changed person if given a chance he would surely do the right thing this time,

Here is the result for the UFC Fight Night: Tsarukyan vs. Gamrot

Arman Tsarukyan VS Mateusz Gamrot DECISION, UNANIMOUS - LOST

The fight was tremendously close, well this was the first time Arman Tsarukyan fought for 5 rounds most of his fight was 3 rounds only, so there were times that we could see that Tsarukyan was like gas-out on the fight indeed many fans were not in favor for Gamrot winning they think that this is a robbery for Tsarukyan and the most controversial round was on the 3rd and 4th, and in my opinion, if we look at the score cards rounds 1 and 2 are for Tsarukyan while round 3 to 5 are for Gamrot, so the controversial fights are the 3rd and 4th and many fans are saying that this rounds should be for Arman Tsarukyan, and in the 4th round Gamrot was knockdown by Tsarukyan, well, in my opinion, the 3rd round was for Mateusz Gamrot no doubt about that he landed most strikes than Tsarukyan and for the 4th round that has all the juicy part, Tsarukyan knockdown Gamrot on this round and I think the Judge and the announcers hasn't seen that because it was so fast, but Gamrot have a takedown and almost get the rarenaked choke on Tsarukyan, but never finished it but that Knockdown was a really huge points for Tsarukyan and in my opinion he should won the 4th round giving him the win over Gamrot but the judges and the announcers didn't notice that Knockdown they might think that as a slip, well this is a roberry for Arman Tsarukyan, but it was a really close match, and Arman's 1st round 5 match and he did great,


Neil Magny VS Shavkat Rakhmonov SUBMISSION, GUILLOTINE CHOKE - WIN

Neil Magny is the veteran here alright but Shavkat Rakhmonov has got Magny real good in the 1st round, you can see the huge advantage of Rakhmonov, you can see the pressure on Neil Magny and the struggle that Rakhmonov is causing him on the ground was really incredible, how Shavkat Rakhmonov has pulled a Guillotine choke on Neil Magny was really impressive, now I really want to see a Shavkat Rakhmonov VS Khamzat Chimaev fight,


Thiago Moisés VS Christos Giagos SUBMISSION, REAR NAKED CHOKE - WIN

I really thought that this could be a close fight but Thiago Moises was really cheeky here, he might know that he can not defeat Giagos on the stand-up that is why he rush to take the grappling, and when the right opportunity has come he went on Christos Giagos back, surely Moises has a cut near his eye, but he just wants to finish this on the first round with a naked choke, that was a fast match in my opinion,


Umar Nurmagomedov VS Nate Maness DECISION, UNANIMOUS - WIN

Nate Maness is a dangerous opponent no doubt about it, but Umar Nurmagomedov is aware of this and in the 1st round he doesn't go with the kicks and pressure Maness on the ground, That Dagestan Wrestling is really what pressuring Nate Maness here, and Umar Nurmagomedov has proven that he on the advantage when it comes to Wrestling, so my thoughts Umar Nurmagomedov, in my opinion, has a caliber on wrestling just like his brother, making this another win for him but Maness also have done great in not letting Umar get into position,

3052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 26, 2022, 08:52:45 AM

they are likely to agree at the close of the transfer window this summer. But the chances of Barcelona are very slim if the clause they propose is still below the wishes of Bayern. star players are always a drama in every season when the transfer window opens. Lewandowski even became a big drama that really stole the attention of many football observers this summer, because he wanted to go from Bayern Munich to Barcelona but Barcelona lacked money to buy him because of the financial problems that hit them.

Well, if Robert Lewandowski really wants to play for Barcelona he would surely consider playing for them for free, or a quarter of his worth, but if he doesn't like that kind of thing then better stay put to Bayern Munich and be a professional to win the championship again, but I really want Robert Lewandowski to get out of Bayern Munich to explore new things his age would be a thing for him he surely needs to see some different teams and explore outside Bayern Munich, and I really want Bundesliga to be competitive again,

In case Lewandowski leaves the team I will be wondering about who will be brought to his position at Bayern Munich. There is no proper alternative player for Lewandowski in the team currently. They will need to make a big centre-forward signing. I'm wondering if they are already monitoring anyone. They were planning to sign Erling Haaland in case they lose Lewandowski but they can't anymore. I assume that they would like a strong forward player like Lewandowski. But they are trying to keep Lewandowski for one more season for now.

I Think Serge Gnabry is a fitted candidate, but in terms of the position of the next striker I think Gnabry will fit the bill in terms of the skills and massive goals make there is no other player for now to replace Robert Lewandowski, but in my opinion, I think Lewandowski can not get out of Bayern Munich for the meantime the Bayern Munich is likely increasing his price so other teams would have problem acquiring him because of the unreasonable price for Lewandowski,

Their is no genuine report that christiano Ronaldo will be leaving Manchester United Bayern Munich.  Well, if happens to be true it will be a nice one for Bayern Munich,  the squad they will have for next season will be one of the best and it will definitely make Bayern Munich to win many trophies , but I still doubt to see christiano Ronaldo in Bayern Munich.

I have not yet seen any rumors that Cristiano Ronaldo is interested in going to Bayern Munich. He joined Manchester United last season. It doesn't seem credible to me that he will leave United this season. However, if Ronaldo comes to Bayern Munich, I don't think he will be able to get along well with Lewandowski. Lewandowski has long been one of Bayern Munich's most important players. He certainly does not want to lose his position.

I really think this is the Article about the rumors, well the truth is number 1 Cristiano Ronaldo is not really going to Bayern Munich or be leaving Man City anytime soon, and Number 2 Bayern Munich might have offered Manchester City star, Cristiano Ronaldo, by his agent but quickly realized the negative side on a trade like that, and on that article link Bayern Munich have back up the claims that they don't want Ronaldo on their team and here is the list,

• Keeping a healthy wage structure within the team

• Age: 37 years old

• Bayern wants pressing players/willing to run

• Young coach - healthy dressing room relations

Well this is just what the article is saying and Bayern Added that it could jeopardize the team's chemistry if Cristiano Ronaldo enter the team, well I have just seen the article, and sum up the possibility why it is very unlikely for Cristiano Ronaldo to join Bayern Munich,

Lewandowski will stay with the Bayern Munich team and he will try to maintain his form. Lewandowski is a professional player, he will not intentionally play badly. And if Lewandowski is with the Bayern Munich squad, he will be the key player in the squad. But I wanted to see Lewandowski in Barcelona. However, this possibility seems very low. A few years later, I don't think Barcelona would be interested in a 34/35 year old player.

And even though the salary of Lewandowski was cut when he enters Barcelona it is too expensive for Barcelona to maintain, and there is no guarantee if Lewandowski can play his 100% for Barcelona, even though it is still football the chemistry with Bayern Munich players are very likely different, and yeah I think Robert Lewandowski is now OK in still staying for Bayern Munich, but I really want Robert Lewandowski to leave Bundesliga, I will surely miss him but I like to see the shift of momentum in the Bundesliga without he main power house of Bayern do other teams really stand a chance, but it will never happen,

My Picks and what I think would happen in some fights on the UFC Fight Night: Tsarukyan vs. Gamrot

Arman Tsarukyan VS Mateusz Gamrot

Thiago Moisés VS Christos Giagos
Nice analysis, but I would risking my bet to pick the underdog on this card since I see the possibility we might see an upset. Gamrot is better on the ground rather than Tsarukyan, the reach advantages and power punch by Tsarukyan might KO'ed Gamrot, but if Gamrot force Tsarukyan to fight on the ground, Gamrot can win via submission.

I don't know why Moises listed as a favorite since his last 2 fights were lose, while Giagos only lose one fight even in the whole record he have more losses than Moises. Giagos is more aggressive fighter and if he can force Moises to fight distance, for sure he will win.

Well, my Analysis is just for others to have a slight outlook or insight on the fighters or just a guide it is your decision on whoever your pick because my prediction is just my opinion only everyone has the free will  to choose, or maybe others have a different insight than might I surely respect that, Gamrot still has a possibility in winning this and yes a ground fight might be effective against Tsarukyan,

Thiago Moises is a well-rounded fighter that is why I am rooting for him than Giagos, and I think both these fighters can be beaten by Arman Tsarukyan, the recent fight of Giagos was against Arman Tsarukyan, and Thiago Moises lost to Joek Alvarez that was defeated by Arman Tsarukyan aswell, and the fight before that, was against Islam Makhachev that we all know the caliber, but in my opinion against Christos Giagos, Thiago Moises is more well rounded,

What do we think of Nate Maness' ground game? I'm thinking a decision to Umar could be on the cards, but honestly I thought that with his last fight, and he ended it real quick.

Also, if you could double down on a underdog, who would be your pick?

The reason I ask is; I'm looking to put a higher amount down this weekend, but only include 3-4 fights. I won't be betting just on wins though, thinking of during by round, and method. Unless, its a decision.

I don't really think that Maness's ground game is inferior enough to surpass a Nurmagomedov's Dagestan way of wrestling, and I think that Khabib Nurmagomedov is backing his brother on the side so we expect a coaching Khabib on his Brother just like Makhachev,

with the other underdogs, I really don't have any idea and I don't look up their records for now, but I am on standby for potential talent, and well that is a good choice betting on round and method of winning but is not a bad choice actually, that is how good this is, you can bet multiple time on 1 match,


I thought that initially; that Neil has good striking, and could potentially do some damage. Then, I reviewed some tape, and he leaves himself horribly open at times. Think he might get slept.

Yup! Rakhmonov is a beast surely Magny has some decent striking and all but I think Shavkat Rakhmonov is a hell of a fighter that pretty much fighting smartly in his last few fights, so the technicality will always maintain to Rakhmonov,

I agree, and I think we all know that he has the talent to be in the NBA, just needed some polishing and you can get that by playing international or in a league like New Zealand wherein he really shine.


Yup! even though I am sad about him not getting drafted I think there is a right time for him to shine and not forcing him to get in the NBA prematurely is a good move aswell, I think it will benefit his career, in having the patient and determination I think he will be a big asset in the NBA someday and right now he is a well known individual and because of this he is surely exposed to some team that he has the talent that they need,


Yes, too early to judge as we haven't even see them playing their first NBA games. Of course the hype will be their, specially the top tier drafts and there could be pressures for them to perform in relation to their draft pick. They don't want to be a bust as what we have seen in every batch.. Let's wait for this young players, Scottie Barnes named was not even in the top of the list early, and yet he won the Rookie of the Year in very closed votes. So there could be surprises.

Well, a lot is expecting so much for the newcomers on the newly drafted players, I think they will still going to build that chemistry inside the team, and not only physically but mentally as well, but right now they are the new rookies this season, and by their performance on the upcoming season we can surely see their potential if they can become a superstar or still going to be a bench warmer of the team, which is most players will likely to be on the 1st season,


He has to move on from that, he is now in a new team and has been given an opportunity to prove himself, then he should focus on winning. Every player has a weakness but it should be the coaching staff's job to manage him and put him at the right time, if he is not good in clutch time, then taking him out is the best strategy because he can contribute in the 1st to 3rd quarter, so he is still a valuable player.

Any player can become a worthy addition to a team, but there are some that don't really fit well, and I think this is because there are players that can't really build chemistry with other players and this is a very crucial thing when a team has acquired a player that can not build chemistry at all or if a player won't know what is his role to the team, I think that is a big gamble and people behind finding players that the teams really needed is a crucial thing aswell but let's just wait if he's going to fit in very well in the next season,

Exactly! It's easy to dream and have some goals to make money but if we're not capable on doing it as well as we have no passion then that goal is impossible to attain. Just like in boxing, many boxers who dreamt to carve their name but only few are choosen to do it.

As for Bobby Pacquiao, well, he tried but he can't exactly match his brothers talent in boxing so he gave it up and support Manny on his road to greatness. That's already good for the both of them because Manny had remained to carve their last name in the industry.

I really think it is also up to a person's mindset if he likes to pursue his dream if he had the passion to do it, then he will definitely Succeed, but if that spark would go just because of a 1 record lost then he or she doesn't have a mind to pursue, but a fragile mind that will eventually falter, Manny and Bobby might be brothers but they don't share the same mindset and the urge in really doing boxing, the same goes with John Riel Casimero's brother Jayson Casimero, John Riel Casimero have a solid will to pursue his goals in life while his brother didn't pursue much but had the experience in fighting in the ring, well, we all can become boxers but pretty much not all can attain the determination of well-known boxers now,


Yes, this has been in the works already, Yarde as the mandatory and then the fight being in O2 arena, that will be huge fight specially for Yarde. And since Beterviev is not damage on his last fight with Smith, they can set this up right now, October is being the target date.

And then the winner getting Bivol, so definitely we want to have a scenario wherein two of the best in LHW will fight for unification, Beterviev and Bivol. Hopefully, Yarde won't cause any upset.

If this fight goes through I think it will be next year, but early in 2023, and this could be another test for Artur Beterbiev before he can face Dmitry Bivol, but I think Beterbiev is perfectly ready for Bivol, Anthony Yarde is just a stumbling block for him to go straight to Bivol I think this fight is not necessary they are just delaying the fight well I don't know they might want Beterbiev to age well for further weakening him but I am still going for Artur Beterbiev whatever happens,

My Picks and what I think would happen in some fights on the UFC Fight Night: Tsarukyan vs. Gamrot

Arman Tsarukyan VS Mateusz Gamrot

Stake odds for this fight are 1.36 for Tsarukyan while 3.20 for Gamrot, and For this fight, it can be a very close fight but for me, Arman Tsarukyan is very well-rounded, he can finish on stand-up or on the ground and a notable fight was against Islam Makhachev that it was a great fight to watch Tsarukyan switching stance on Makhachev, on the 1st round both fighters done a mistake but Makhachev really is fast to have seen that, I say Tsarukyan did a great job defending and countering Makhachev but to no extend Islam Makhachev has a better technique, but against Mateusz Gamrot I think Arman Tsurukyan has a better view with wrestling and grappling on the ground, so my pick is definitely Arman Tsarukyan,

Neil Magny VS Shavkat Rakhmonov

Stake odds for this fight are 4.20 for Magny while 1.23 for Rakhmonov, Well, I don't really don't like Neil Magny and I really don't like him either, but surely this man has good striking, ground and pound game, and has good wrestling as well, and I think this is a good chance for Shavkat Rakhmonov to test his endurance and if he can beat Magny, but for me, I think Shavkat Rakhmonov is an exception, and I surely always compares him to Khamzat Chimaev, because of their style, and from that even though Neil Magny has some advantage over the experience, I am pretty confident over Shavkat Rakhmonov, so my pick is Shavkat Rakhmonov,

Thiago Moisés VS Christos Giagos

Stake odds for this fight are 1.39 for Moises, while 3.05 for Giagos, for this fight I say Moises has better striking and can surely have a decent Wrestling as well, while his opponent Giagos may have decent stand-up, but I think Moises, can execute it perfectly if he found the right distance to shot his punches because I think Moises can sure fight smartly with technical striking, so my pick will be Thiago Moises,

Umar Nurmagomedov VS Nate Maness

Stake Odds for this fight are 7.40 for Maness while 1.09 for Nurmagomedov, clearly many see this as a onesided fight base on the odds favorite, but I think this is a good test for Umar Nurmagomedov, Nate Maness has the striking capability and got power in his punches but with Nurmagomedov, the distance will be crucial because Umar is kicking in his offense, he got a blinding speed on his kicks, but when the fight goes to the ground this could be highly advantageous for Umar Nurmagomedov, so my pick will be Umar Nurmagomedov,

3058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 25, 2022, 06:28:55 AM
I think there are NBA players who are undrafted but made their way to the NBA, and they even get popular.

Some of the players I know are Luka Doncic and Jeremy Lin, they made their name and now actively Luka already has superstar status.
Therefore Kai Sotto should not loss his hope, the time will come for him as long as he continue to pursue his dreams.

Well, you are right matey, he has a lot of opportunity along the way and he got time to redevelop himself on what skills he still lacks, and right now he will not play in the 2022 NBA summer league because he is committed to playing for the Gilas Pilipinas national basketball team and he is going to represent his country, he surely admits that he let down the NBA Summer League and doesn't want the 2nd-way contract to enter the NBA, well I respect his decision and will wait on what can contribute to the National Team this coming June 30, against New Zealand

Kyrie Irving as it appears is looking to find a new home while Kevin Durant is trying to do the same but has 4 years left in his contract. Irving could opt in for a trade, Opt out and sign as a free agent, a sign in trade. I don't think Irving is going to stay for another season. Durant would like a move as well but its much trickier for him.

I really think Kevin Durant has a plan here, a desperate move if you would ask me, he would surely want to leave the Brooklyn Nets as well, so the Brooklyn Nets are in a dire situation right now, while Kevin Durant has tweeted congratulations to the dubs and Steph, and he surely is waiting for the parade on Market St. and he is dead since 2016, have gained so much attention right now and a reference that he wants to go back on the Warriors team, but I think this is all busted, and Draymond Green doesn't like what he is saying, fire back at Durant on his Podcast, surely I think the newly Drafted for the Golden State Warriors Patrick Baldwin Jr.  is playing the same way as Kevin Durant, not as slick as Durant but there is still room for improvement so I guess the Warriors doesn't need him anymore,

3059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: June 24, 2022, 04:08:40 PM

I got Moises at my top ticket too.  But I feel like he'll be the pie shitter of the week.  Another one could be TJ Brown if his cardio doesn't during the third round if it does reach the third.

Anyway here's my lottery ticket for the event.  Wish me luck.  Lol.

Nurmagomedov - Rakhmonov - Moises 1.90
Brown - Tskauryan - Ulberg at 7.68
Paiva - Curtis - Buys at 45
Baudot -  Frey at 195
Kelleher at 265

Took chances on Paiva and Kelleher as underdogs.  Kinda kicking myself for putting Ulberg on top of Curtis.  Dunno..  At the time I was back and forth between him and Vieira.

Actually, I am cool with Thiago Moises, but his opponent really is intimidating, I know intimidation can not hurt anyone but don't let it go into your head, because that intimidation can surely also cause a win, for Christos Giagos but still I am going with Moises here I will put my picks tomorrow pretty much busy lately, but you got yourself a decent lottery picks there so I really wish you good luck to that,

Well, I don't think I need the weigh ins for most of my predictions. Feeling confident with the underdogs this week.

Here's the predictions:

Arman Tsarukyan
Gamrot definitely has a chance here, but I think Tsarukyan will get the job done.

Shavkat Rakhmonov
Should be a relatively easy fight, don't think his opponent has what it takes. Would have to be a knock out to lose this I think.

Alan Baudot
Thiago Moisés
Umar Nurmagomedov
Rodolfo Vieira
Carlos Ulberg
TJ Brown
Raulian Paiva
Cody Durden
Brian Kelleher
Jinh Yu Frey

Kelleher fight is going to be absolutely crazy I think. His opponent going into the fight as a favourite, and probably rightfully so. I just think Kelleher can be a tricky fighter at times, and will get it done. That's probably my fight of the night there.

Nice picks aswell, but unlike you, I don't have any idea about the main event I will get my picks and post them here tomorrow, but for now, I think Shavkat Rakhmonov will get this done easily, I think Rakhmonov is underrated for his opponent but not underestimating Neil Magny, but I think Magny doesn't really have what it takes to take on Rakhmonov, he is like Makhachev but a humble one, and I think he is a fighter with the same caliber as that, so many often compare the two, but for that one Rakhmanov has the advantage,

Umar Nurmagomedov will be my pick aswell, I mean even though you think that he is not champion material, this fight will be an easy one for him, and for me Umar has it takes to get even higher he just needs to take the advice of his brother Khabib, and his level of wrestling should not be taken lightly, he sure wrestles with the best so I am sure those kicks can also be deceiving to his opponent if you all know what I am talking about,
3060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 24, 2022, 08:40:28 AM

Right now NBA Draft Paolo Banchero was the number 1 pick by the Orlando Magic, while Jabari Smith was the 3rd pick by the Houston Rockets, and right now I feel sad because our full-blown Filipino player Kai Sotto was undrafted, but still, I think he can surely train harder and aim for it next season,

Well, he is not on the top list of players that would be drafted so I'm not surprised. Though we are hopeful that he will get drafted, but we have to accept the reality, yes, there's always a next season, all he has to do is to improved himself and try to be a dominant center, he is still young so there's still plenty of opportunity for him.

Yes Indeed, and I really wish this will not going to be an upset for him but could be a Rekindled fire that will ignite to put the effort to be 1st on the list, right now Bronny James is struggling aswell, there is always a next time for both kids, making a big leap in their rankings because I would like to see a full Blown Filipino Playing in the NBA and the Tandem on Lebron and Bronny well kind of curious what can happen but yeah Kai Sotto still has a ceiling he can fill, I think he needs to increase in speed and gained more muscle for the next draft,

It looks like Jalen Brunson's performance with the Mavericks without Luka made some scouts change their perspective about him. It will be a great addition for the Knicks if ever they will use that remaining cap space to take him in.
But, will the Mavs have more to offer to make him stay? They just became a championship-caliber and with the Christian Wood trade in their roster, they became more interesting.
The Knicks are trying to chase a player who can carry the team but they traded all of their picks including Walker for future draft picks. They are chasing Brunson but the question is will the Mavericks let him go knowing that he, Luka and Wood can be a good trio for the team?

Brunson has been the second option of the team offensively and when Luka is injured, he is the primary scorer and he played very well. He is very good at floater and side 3pt shots. For me, he will be more productive if he is in the Knicks but if he will chase for the ring, the chances is higher with the Mavericks. They went to the Conf. Finals and stunned the Suns and with the addition of Wood, they will be stronger now and who knows they might be a championship caliber team.

Lets see where will Brunson land because it will be interesting. Will Spike Lee's decision be a success now or it will be a bust.

In my opinion, the Mavericks will not do a trade like that, but if they are needing money they can squish something good for the New York Knicks but pretty much it is an impossible trade for me, Brunson has proven his worth and the Dallas mavericks will not let a chance just to make a wrong decision, I really think every team rethink 1st what happens in the finals Boston Celtics is a full bloom defensive team, the Golden State Warriors is an Offensive team with a coordinated defense, I think the other teams that haven't made to the finals should learn the importance of defense more on offense,
