Per article that I have read, Spence might fight Thurman and we all knew how dangerous Thurman is so let us wait and see if this negotiation will prosper.

That's also what I suspected, that he will go after Thurman because it's the next best thing for him as both are under the PBC banner. And it's really hard to see how the fight will prosper, because Crawford going public, he put Al Haymon in bad light.

Although it's no secret in the boxing industry that Haymon is one of the most powerful figure, you even don't see his face, unlike Bob Arum or Oscar Dela Hoya or Eddie Hearn. He just built his company in some other ways that's why he has total control of this fight and won't give a chance to those companies that Crawford mentioned.

I'm sorry but I'm not going to support your project with the name attached to some serial killer. Yes, it's one of the most viewed tv shows in Netflix and obviously, you wanted to capitalized on its popularity.

Nevertheless, crypto investors are wise and very intelligent not to fall for this kind of trick. Even when the Queen died, many meme coins suddenly appear in her name and this and that.

Sorry to burst the bubble for you, you should have used your skills to create projects that are unique.

I find recent action good, dont know about calling it a pump but certainly its a time to be optimistic lest you miss a valid rally.  Theres no gain in refusing to believe the possibility for higher prices, even a 10k gain would be 50% from the lows and perfectly legitimate as a target.   I'd estimate 25k as reasonable but nobody can tell for sure.

Yeah, a good $25k estimate is not that bad, however, I'm still at fence at it. If we are going to hit it at around December, the rally this November should end up like in the $23k range. And I still believed that it could be a hard target for this month as the price could go on another sideways or the max that we can go is $21k and have a difficult entry to $22k. But let's see, if investors are going to be bullish then nobody can stop that run.

Why not? even in a landbase casino's we watch how those huge bettors play the game in the table with $2k minimum bet. So when we see it in those streamers, we are really that attracted to see if he is going to win big or go bust with his capital and how he can sustain that run of is.

Hopefully the OP can get back and fix the link and maybe some of us here are going to help him with answering those questions.

That decision win by Zurdo is really very attractive, hehehehe and it's huge.

But I think Bivol will be too wise and intelligent in this fight, and despite all the attributes of Ramirez, he can offset it with his movement. So maybe Zurdo will win some early rounds, but then when Bivol has fully adjusted, his game plan will be dart in and out and make Zurdo tired in the late rounds and then Bivol piling points in the championship round for a decision win.

Cavs as well is a big surprised this season so I will go with them tonight against the struggling Pistons.

So on top of the East is the Bucks, but it seems that the Cavs are just ride behind. Although there are reports that Garland and Mitchell might be injured, but I think both of the mare going to play so -5.5 for them against the Pistons. Looking also at the Bucks as well, -3.5 is not that bad and maybe Giannis with another monster game.

Nung natambakan ng Golden State Warriors, ang odds yata sa Magic is parang @10. Iyong pre-game odds naman is @4. Talagang super underdog ang Magic. Ayun masyadong kampante, hinabol ng Magic at nanalo pa sa huli. Sarap tuloy sumugal sa mga nakakalaban ng Warriors kapag natatambakan sa live game.

May laban ang Warriors mamaya kontra sa Pelicans at heavily favored yong Pelicans na manalo dito at yong odds ng Warriors sa ML ay @5, sarap nyan di ba kahit na nagka-letche letche yong Warriors ngayon pero Warriors pa rin yan kaya tataya ako ng kahit kaunti lang mamaya sa kanila.

Iwas muna ako sa Warriors sa ngayon, 2 straight game na nasusulot sila, ganda ng laban nila sa Magic, init ng kamay ni Curry pero nasilat sila.

Cavs -5.5 @1.90 vs Pistons

^^ ito talaga yong match-up na gusto ko sa ngayon dahil ang init ng Cavs na para bang gusto nilang gumawa ng record consecutive wins sa ngayon hehe.

Oo nga, hindi pa ito ang sinundan kong team eh nung una nasilip ko na silang magandang dehado, Pero since maganda nga ang pinapakita eh nagiging llamado na sila. Kaya handicap maganda parin.
3248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How are Online casino's and sports betting platforms coping? on: November 04, 2022, 07:56:55 PM
Online casinos and sports betting platforms are big businesses like we all know, and currently considering the economic situation of things around the world many businesses are affected and have been taking measures to cut costs in terms of reducing staff, taking loans etc to still be able to sustain operations. How do you think online casinos and sports betting platforms are adjusting to manage the situation?

Business wise, I think everyone is doing good, at least those who are established already. Specially during the pandemic, everyone is just at home in the last couple of years so they are raking big money I assumed. Unlike the traditional and land base casinos who are force to go offline for months even years because of covid-19. So there could be growth in online as players around the world continue to gamble using fiat and crypto based platforms. And you can also observed that there are casinos that pop up during 2020 that still manages to stay in the game.

Here are some videos of Manny doing some training for this fight:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcxvQmBLxdQ

Dude has still the speed and footwork and obviously those punches have power behind it. I still think that Manny can still pull the trigger and can win 90% against the current 147 lbs boxers that we have right now.

And there are Koreans in the background also filming this fight to show to DK Yoo, hehehehe.
Doesnt matter if that training or sparring session would leak out and be shown to DK yoo.This isnt an official match which means that everything could be exposed
and there's no difference into that.When it comes to speed and power then we could actually say that he had still the shot on fighting in todays fighters but well
he had made out the decision and now focuses on having these exhibition fights but well its still appreciable considering that earnings would really
go into those charities or something connected on it.

I guess you didn't get the sarcasm here, obviously this is  for fun and pure entertainment, even you can see how to toy and play with his best friend on his sparring.

Thanks!

It's a great coincidence that I've seen some of Manny's video in the Running Man episodes and he seems really enjoying on that show. I now understand why he's there.

It's a lot of commitment that he flew there to South Korea. From those TV guestings, to training and with the upcoming fight against DK Yoo since the venue is there in SK.

Right, he has to promote it the usual, and it seems that the South Korean audience really loves Manny already.

And for sure this will be a very successful start for Pacquiao in the world of exhibition matches and he made the right decision to start it with DK Yoo.
3250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: November 04, 2022, 03:24:38 AM
Ok guys here is what Crawford has to say about the failed negotiations, In summary:

1. Crawford starts talking to Al Haymon of PBC in May
2. Crawford got a contract along August, and according to him it's not even a regular contract
3. Haymon said that he is talking to someone from Team Crawford, but Crawford himself says that he didn't even know the person
4. Crawford tells Al that there are 2 companies are interested in the fight and willing to pay $25 m each guaranteed purse.
5.  ‘I’m not letting nobody touch this fight.’ Haymon said

You can read everything here: https://www.badlefthook.com/2022/11/2/23436522/terence-crawford-tells-all-on-failed-negotiations-with-errol-spence

And perhaps everyone can give  their opinion on who is to blame on this mess up. Or probably you can see how powerful Al Haymon is, or at least his tactics in negotiations. And maybe why it's hard to make fight between him and Top Rank.

Well, they seem got a hold of it because they manage to defeat the New Orleans Pelicans earlier today. It was a crazy game but it's undeniable that the Lakers is quite different now and Westbrook already got used to his role as he keeps on laying the table for his teammate to score. Pelicans was shocked as the gaps of their score becomes wider as the first half finished, they managed to chase the Lakers in the 2nd half but Lakers was so determined to put a win today.

While he is getting used to his new role, the Lakers are gaining momentum to make straight wins but the real test will be in their next game vs the Utah Jazz where undeniably one of the best in the west. But the Lakers will gonna do their best and will try everything they can to keep winning every single game from now on. So it's better to assume that they will gonna fight for it and let's just hope no injuries will haunt them sooner since they are now obviously making difference from their last games.

Yes, another acid test for them against the Jazz, when we thought that Utah will be tanking this season, it seems though that the remaining players like Clarkson wanted to show and proved that they can be a good team despite losing Mitchell and Gobert.

So another tough match for the Lakers and it will be interesting game to watch. We don't know how many games that they can pull something like what they did against New Orleans.

I guess it's time for the Warriors to get on a winning form tonight against a Orlando.

"Is the bear market over? Hard to say, but a lot of the bad news was priced in. With a maximum drawdown of -28%, SPX discounted 85% of a typical 33% market decline and 78% of a recession bear market. I still like the 1946 counterpart-"

 - I don't think the bear market is over yet dude because as far as I know the entry of the bull run is still in 2024, which means we have to go through the year 2023 before we get through it.

Yes, we are not out of the bear market, this is simply the market getting to the biggest support of $20k. And after that, the price could be on another sideways although majority might believed that at least in December we will see some jump. But for me, the max price that we can get is around $22k.

Although the period of the bear market is not an easy time for us to earn income, instead it requires sufficient skills and knowledge in performing trading tactics accurately, not even 100% but at least 75-80 At least % strategy to get profit here in crypto trading.

Or if you don't want to complicate things on your part, why not buy cheap altcoins in the top 10 and just HODL. Of course, if you are a trader, you can mix and match certain strategies that will fit your trading strategy. But for those who are not traders and wanted risk free environment, then simply buying and accumulating is the best thing to do in a market cycle like this.
3253  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bull or bear November? on: November 03, 2022, 10:10:21 PM
After passing 10 months in 2022, I am sure that the remaining 2 months, namely November and December the price trend will be the same, if there is a bull run, the price may reach $ 28k and it is difficult to touch $ 30k, or if it happens it might be above $ 18k.
at the end of the year it will be the month of Bitcoin and altcoins I'm sure it's because currently the bullish indication for Bitcoin can reach $30k is very large,
because now there is a lot of good news that makes Bitcoin price strong, altcoins have also recovered and even increased altcoins much bigger than bitcoin,
so my advice in the bull market later you should really focus on altcoins.

I'm sorry but I have to disagree that we can reach $30k at the end of the month. We are very much in the bear market, and although we have a spike this week, the market is trying to get back to our psychological support line of $20k.

It did went as high as $21k, but look at how happen, it wasn't able to maintain that level, the prices goes down as obviously, there is this selling pressure for speculators to make some money real quick. And it might take some time for the price to go up, we might trade sideways for the rest of the year, in my opinion.

You mentioned altcoins, they are worst, -90% and higher decline.

It's understandable that he doesn't want to show his face in public. But totally hiding it to his wife? Not sure if that would be the right move here. And so I'm 50/50 for his reasons behind, maybe it was good, or something is not right that he doesn't want to share it with his family.

Although we don't want to be judgemental here, but the case involves a lot of money and who knows, human greed knows no boundaries. Again, I can't understand why he will do such an act to conceal and be secretive about it from his family.

Yeah, in the beginning it was really crude but it has evolved so much that it include 0 and double 00.

I actually do play roulette, however I only bet on single 0 table, as it is more "advantageous" to play, 36:1. Just remember that there are no science or math that will sway the favor for the gambler here, this is pure luck base game. Only way to beat the house is that if you found a table that is biased. But if will take a lot of your time to identify it and casinos now have prevented it as they are also shuffling their roulette machine to counter it.

50 page thread on a fight that might never be 😲.  I hope as much as ypu all this goes down but got to face the facts it just might never come to fruition.  Just might need to let this thread die a peaceful death Smiley.

Probably, but who knows, maybe next year there will be a fresh set of negotiations between the 2 camps and this fight comes to fruition when everyone thought that the fight is dead.

So yeah, might as well keep the thread open, and when there is an update, someone could pick it up and post it here. But for this year, the fight is officially not going to happen.

It's unfortunate because it's not just this thread but that's what all boxing fans want to see.  In reality there aren't many good fights ahead of us in the near term this would have been the fight that would have gotten everyone excited.  Oh well.

There could still be fight in the horizon though, but for us this is a super fight, and we all know that 147 lbs is like the premier weight in boxing and throughout it's history we have a lot of great champions, recently Manny Pacquiao or Floyd.

But the door is still open though, I still believed that this fight can be made next year after they got their cherry pick fight.

Kidding aside, it will be a perfect opportunity to his another experiment in the horizon, a crypto based bank. For sure this is what he is thinking, that's why he will go after the banks now and see how it goes.

And for his own word, he wants to bridge traditional financial to crypto and this is his first step.

Yes, CZ is getting bigger by the day and his vision has no boundaries.
3259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terence Crawford vs David Avanesyan December 10 on: November 03, 2022, 08:19:54 PM
I don't think Thurman could be the best market out of the three named boxers because people wouldn't believe that Thurman can stand a chance against Spence. We already know the history, Ugas defeated Pacquiao and Spence defeated Ugas while Thurman here was defeated by Pacquiao. Can't imagine if Pacquiao-Spence fight wasn't cancelled. That is why it's much better for Spence to pick Ennis.

But still though, as far as resume is concern Thurman > Ennis or Ortiz Jr, both is still not a PPV stars, I know that they are still unbeaten, but I don't think boxing promoters will give them the chance as early at this time to have the chance to fight for the belt, and it's going to be risky for both Crawford and Spence to fight either one of them. Again, I'm not saying that they are avoiding this two, but the risk and reward ratio and the expected returns might not be good.

So in this case, Crawford goes on a easy route vs Avanesyan, and who knows, Spence will see Thurman as and easy fight as well and the reward will be high in the end. And I'm seeing that this fight will sell to the fans.

Well, glad you cleared that for me mate Grin Yes, I understand. It's all about money this time and it's already safe to say that they will save the best for last because the risk and reward is quite bigger. Although, from what I heard, the latest rumor about Spence is that he will fight Jermell Charlo, both PBC stars and that's actually possible, while Spence here will be just go back and forth whenever he needed to defend his title in welter.

Right mate, it's all business for this boxers now, Crawford wanted to keep his record for a while and so even if Avanesyan is a knockout artist, he is still relatively easy fight for him as compare if he faces Vergil Ortiz Jr or Ennis, risk and reward.

Yeah, Spence has been targeting Charlo at 154 lbs but Jermell will have a fight with Tim Tsyzu early next year. So that will make Spence wait a bit, or maybe just like Crawford, he will have a get busy fight next against a relatively unknown by rank fighter within the PBC stable.
3260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do think that POGO should be declared as legal or Illegal ? on: November 03, 2022, 07:50:39 PM
Philippine has made POGO legal, as they are licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).

But the problem is, there are some POGO that runs illegally in the country, and most of them are run in secretly, but nevertheless, you will hear reports about the police raiding them and mostly they are illegal so what the authorities do is to send them back home to China.

I know that there is much that the government can do about those who are going to lose their jobs, but as some point they have to draw the line here. The economic benefits is outweight by what is going on behind the scene, killings and kidnappings and corruptions.

Even the Chinese government are totally against it, so why not the Philippine government do that as well?
True, many of them have been running illegally and they're just renting condominium units and that's why those rent prices near Pasay/MOA have increased a lot.
But since the government of us now trying to take down many of them, there's also a decrease in income for most of those establishments that are benefiting from it. It's better to be legal than to operate illegally because many of those workers are also Chinese folks that have tourist visas and are considered also illegal immigrant workers. News is all around about many of them being departed.

Yes, but as I have said, even if it raking billions to the Philippine government, still though I would say that the effect is very significant specially if people are dying because of it. They pay good rent because condos are expensive here but then again, it is still illegal by law.

And there is now a good that the Philippines is becoming one of Chinese provinces because of the proliferation of POGO and the number of Chinese that are now in the country. And for me this doesn't look good. So they should all be deported if found illegally working here.
