The judging was shady and there should be some sort of investigation into how they scored the bout as there is no way Alexa Grasso is winning the 5th round 10 - 8 and if not for that stupid judging decision Valentina Shevchenko would have retained the title. Now the UFC needs to reschedule the fight once again as it was a really close fight and i was surprised with the striking of Alexa Grasso and overall it is one of the best fights in Women MMA.

This fight result surely needed further investigation as the fight was so very close that Judge Mike Bell decided to make further adjustments just to make the fight a Draw or for Grasso to retain the title, but as you know Dana White and the UFC will surely defend their judges for sure that there is no anomaly with the judging but for sure the UFC wants another rematch for these two fighters as the Trilogy might be set for having such dubious result,

-snip-
Strickland has quite a strong defense and some people say that Strickland has an advantage in defending against punches making it difficult for Adesanya to knock him down but Adesanya fans don't believe it and think it all just bullshit because they want Adesanya to win too much.
At the start of the fight Adesanya still looked stable in his attacks even though he fell in the first round in the final seconds but he managed to get up and was saved by the sound of the bell.

I'm sure Adesanya will definitely come back and be ready to win the title that from Strickland.
But by the way if Adesanya is willing to not fight for at least 1 year and train hard to improve his physique and improve his fighting style maybe moving up to a higher class would be very interesting.

It was really the defense that Strickland was known about but for some reason, many are blinded that it was just simple defense and that Strickland was not doing much for sure many fans that are not really familiar with the Philly Shell defense will probably say that the fight was boring well that is on a couple of rounds after the 1st round that Adesanya got knockdown and realized that he is screwed and this is also the reason why the Floyd Mayweather fight was also boring because it will surely run down from that defense,

They think its more convenient to have it as a draw than making one wins the fight but it's a lot more frustrating to see one got robbed. By point, I think Valentina won the fight. She surely has improved her striking and the counter, she had her heavy hit compared to what Grasso made but I guess the 5th round makes the final say when Grasso grabbed her.

True that. Dana would probably give them another fight in the future. If there ever one bettor cast a draw, I can only say he is one heck of a Nostradamus.

For sure it would be a trilogy fight but because Valentina Shevchenko is not really a technical fighter like Grasso she still manages to get damaged by Alexa Grasso I really admit that It is really a Valentina Shevchenko win for this match but the judge is very controversial with his score of 10 - 8 for the 5th round this really needs investigation but as far as UFC is concern they are not really concerned about this, and their solution will be a trilogy fight, for sure,

The result of my bet and prediction for the Grasso VS Shevchenko Fight

Alexa Grasso (2.37) VS Valentina Shevchenko (1.57) - DRAW


Well, the fight was a draw and Alexa Grasso was still the champion but even though I liked that Alexa Grasso was still the champion I was really confused about the result surely Shevchenko also did a great job in getting those takedowns and those heavy hits she even got 1 round for herself but I am not really an expert in analyzing the fight but for sure it was really a close one and they say that Mike Bell had a controversial judging because he gave a 10 - 8  score on the 5th round for Alexa Grasso but if he gives a 10 - 9 score the championship belt will definitely go to Valentina Shevchenko for sure Shevchenko will have another complaint about the result and she should have won the fight but for sure that sparring with guys are real for Shevchenko  because she got a pretty muscular physique right now,

Kevin Holland (2.20) VS Jack Della Maddalena (1.65) - LOST


Actually, this is pure action but for sure Jack Della Maddalena has more explosive strikes and has pressured Kevin Holland in this fight and those 2 takedown attempts of Holland were not effective the takedown defense of Della Madalena was very effective and Kevin Holland can not do a thing but it was a very close fight and Kevin Holland should have tried another takedown until he can make one, but because it was not effective he give up on that he will feel the strikes of Madalena for sure

Raul Rosas Jr. (1.13) VS Terrence Mitchell (5.80) - WIN


In the 1st round just like that Raul Rosas Jr. defeated Terrence Mitchell you can see from his furious face that he was really upset with his loss in his last fight and in this fight he has surely got it done now, it was really a great KO, his strike Mitchell was backing down in this kids punches there are no much things that I got to say about this fight because Raul Rosas Jr. is a monster that finishes the fight so fast that I really don't know what had happened,

We will be having 2 games today and it is starting early for sure here are my picks and prediction

Connecticut Sun (1.20) VS Minnesota Lynx (4.10)

This game will commence at Mohegan Sun Arena, home of the Connecticut Sun, for this game, Brionna Jones has an Achilles injury and is out for this season, and Bernadett Hatar has a knee injury and might play for the Connecticut Sun while Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem and Jessica Shepard has an ankle injury and can not play for the Minnesota Lynx for this game just like in their last game I will be putting a huge bet for the Connecticut Sun because of the odds,



Las Vegas Aces (1.03) VS Chicago Sky (9.40)

This game will commence at Michelob ULTRA Arena, home of the Las Vegas Aces, for this game Riquna Williams, is suspended and Candace Parker has an ankle injury and both can not play for the Las Vegas Aces, while Rebekah Gardner has a foot injury and Isabelle Harrison has a knee injury and both players are out for this season, and Marina Mabrey has an Illness and is questionable if she can play for the Chicago Sky, for this game I will not put any bet this is just my pick for this game and for me, Las Vegas Aces will win this game,

^  Lol.  No need to 'build' a PC for a very old game.  Any decent hardware would do.  What you need to buy is a gaming mouse and a nice keyboard...  It doesn't have to be one of those keyboards with special key caps.  Most keyboards would do.  But yeah, gaming mouse is a must.  It just makes everything feel fast and accurate...  Makes it easier to micro.

I'm watching Ro16 Group C now.  No bets tho.  I lost some money with Adesanaya being on top of all my parlays.  Lol.  I thought I was gonna have a decent night.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

You will be surprised by the level of PC that I got and it is already broken so never mind about it, I was just borrowing a laptop so I am going to assemble my own so instead of getting a lower spec one I am thinking of building a PC that is high-end, and everyone surely loves a high-end PC right, well actually playing starcraft in this borrowed laptop but eventually, this one will be used Soon by our student for school purposed but the high-end that I will be building will be for gaming and work-related,

Well, back on the AfreecaTV StarCraft League Remastered Season 16 Tomorrow September 18, there will be a game for the tournament Rush (Terran) vs. Hero (Zerg) in this match Rush dominated Group B 2 - 0 while hero was 2nd place in Group C with 2 - 1 for sure it could be Rush that may win this match, but I can not say for sure as Zerg can immediately spawn Zerglings to destroy those tactics of Terran so this is an interesting match and could be apply on an actual game,

Do you still remember the first Adesanya vs Blachowiz and Perreire fight? Adesanya is a pure striker who was born into the world of stand-up fighting. Against Blachowiz he had difficulty defending against Takedowns which resulted in his dream of becoming a double champion to fail. Then in the fight against Perreire where the two of them showed a bottom level fight. I'm not saying they're not great fighters. However, there we can see that Adesanye has not really been able to master the ground game such as takedown and takedown defense.

That fight was clear as day and for sure Adesanya was not ready with those takedowns of Jan Błachowicz but we are talking about the Sean Strickland fight for sure his takedowns and wrestling are more refined now and he hasn't used it at all,



The result of the UFC Fight Night: Grasso vs. Shevchenko 2 was really unexpected I never thought that it would end up in a draw I really thought that one of them could win this well even Shevchenko could likely win this fight it was really a close one for sure Valentina Shevchenko did her best in getting the belt but actually the fight was really close

Here are the results of my bet

Alexa Grasso (2.37) VS Valentina Shevchenko (1.57) - DRAW

Well, the fight was a draw and Alexa Grasso was still the champion but even though I liked that Alexa Grasso was still the champion I was really confused about the result surely Shevchenko also did a great job in getting those takedowns and those heavy hits she even got 1 round for herself but I am not really an expert in analyzing the fight but for sure it was really a close one and they say that Mike Bell had a controversial judging because he gave a 10 - 8  score on the 5th round for Alexa Grasso but if he gives a 10 - 9 score the championship belt will definitely go to Valentina Shevchenko for sure Shevchenko will have another complaint about the result and she should have won the fight but for sure that sparring with guys are real for Shevchenko  because she got a pretty muscular physique right now,



Kevin Holland (2.20) VS Jack Della Maddalena (1.65) - LOST

Actually, this is pure action but for sure Jack Della Maddalena has more explosive strikes and has pressured Kevin Holland in this fight and those 2 takedown attempts of Holland were not effective the takedown defense of Della Madalena was very effective and Kevin Holland can not do a thing but it was a very close fight and Kevin Holland should have tried another takedown until he can make one, but because it was not effective he give up on that he will feel the strikes of Madalena for sure



Raul Rosas Jr. (1.13) VS Terrence Mitchell (5.80) - WIN

In the 1st round just like that Raul Rosas Jr. defeated Terrence Mitchell you can see from his furious face that he was really upset with his loss in his last fight and in this fight he has surely got it done now, it was really a great KO, his strike Mitchell was backing down in this kids punches there are no much things that I got to say about this fight because Raul Rosas Jr. is a monster that finishes the fight so fast that I really don't know what had happened,


406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 17, 2023, 02:57:58 AM
Results for games Yesterday and it was a great one,

Freiburg (2) VS Dortmund (4) - Dortmund WINS

An interesting game for sure Dortmund got a boost when Felix Nmecha joined them which means that Dortmund is back on track and because sure Freiburg is not a pushover team as well and for them to make a great game like that was really unbelievable,

Wolfsburg (2) VS Union Berlin (1) - Wolfsburg WINS

Now this one is a close game for sure Wolfsburg is an incredible team now, but you can never underestimate Union Berlin I really thought that Wolfsburg would deplete their performance when Felix Nmecha was transferred to Dortmund but they surely did not, and winning against Union Berlin

Mainz (1) VS Stuttgart (3) - Stuttgart WINS

Now Stuttgart is making their comeback and against Mainz for sure many are likely to have sighted that Stuttgart will win this for sure,

RB Leipzig (3) VS Augburg (0) - Leipzig WINS

RB Leipzig as well have a great comeback for sure and getting those new players for them actually I am looking forward to this team making it to maybe the 3rd place or even getting it for the Championship but yeah that is wishful thinking for sure,

Koln (1) VS Hoffenheim (3) - Hoffenheim WINS

Now Hoffenheim got a great win against Koln, but I surely a great hopes for Mainz that they will come again they surely got a bad start for this season, because I have a feeling that we will be a surprise for sure,

VfL Bochum (1) VS Eintracht Frankfurt (1) - GAME DRAW

Now this is interesting for Frankfurt got a draw against Bochum but it is not really surprising that the end of the game has a result like this it surely it happens

Don't know why both the above members are against JDM to win against Kevin Holland.
Did you see how he got just rag dolled in his last match?
Jack is on a hot streak and looking like the best contender to take on this whole card due to having those kind of odds.
So I will have to go along with @cabron on this one with his prediction for this fight.
I took him and Shevchenko to both win their main and co-main event bouts this evening for this UFC Fight Night later on today.

Actually, I was hesitating on taking a bet against Jack Della Madalena seeing his last fight was really great on his part, but for sure there is certainly something about Kevin Hollands' fight that I can not take out as well and he has said that he will do everything he can for sure I am hoping for the best in this one but I haven't really taken the fact that Kevin Holland could also lose in this fight everything can happen but there must be something or someone that needs to take the other half to make it whole,

For the Shevchenko fight well maybe Valentina Shevchenko was furious at herself for making a mistake like that so In the rematch she will make it right this time and I believe that for sure maybe she was underestimating Grasso that time but in the way she was speaking that Grasso was just lucky and she was winning the fight I really don't like it at all in not crediting someone for her hard work in taking her belt I think she is still underestimating Grasso, and that may have cost her again,

408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: September 16, 2023, 11:54:18 PM

Adesanya's journey in the UFC has been like a Roller Coaster. Emerged as a fighter who is considered to have the highest fight IQ in striking in the UFC today. Won the title from Whittaker, broke Borrachinha's undefeated record, once crushed his entire division, then moved up to LHW to fight for the Double Champ title but was unsuccessful, beat Whittaker and Vettori 2 times, faced an old rival who became his nightmare and lost the title, then succeeded take it back. I think this will shape the mentality of a champion from Adesanya and it won't take long for Izzy to return to being king in this middle class

Surely all those dramas and hardship still remains with him he is still the Israel Adesanya people known and love for sure he will come the 2nd time good as well but that journey was cut short by an unexpected man who only uses basic boxing for their fight for sure there is an option for Izzy in that octagon but I was wondering why he didn't take it as to stop that he needs to take down Sean Strickland but he never made even just 1 bit of a takedown for this fight and for me it look like his signature ego in striking was also hurt when he can not take down the defense of Strickland,

~
In my opinion, I see Valentina Shevchenko winning this time and regaining her belt
Valentina Shevchenko will be really careful in her rematch as she was really winning the fight when they fought the first time until that kick she threw and Alexa Grasso was waiting for that mistake so that she could take advantage of the situation where she might have drilled a thousand times. I expect the fight to go the distance as both the fighters will be cautious but expecting Valentina Shevchenko to regain her belt.

For sure 1 wrong move and Alexa Grasso can capitalize on that so she really needs to be careful in this rematch as for me Grasso can see even the slightest error when she has an opportunity to take it she will surely take it, without hesitation, but for sure Valentina Shevchenko now knows that she can not underestimate her opponent in this rematch, but for not realizing her 1st lost to her I doubted that she in thinking that way,

After reading alot of opinions on reddit and twitter , for me the best plays for grasso vs shevchenko is

Fight to go the distance @  1.69 (nice) odds  

and a little sprinkle on Grasso by submission @ 6.2 odds

alot more inclined towards FTGD bet as it should hit

Everybody is not wrong in making their prediction actually everything can surely happen inside the Octagon we will never know until the fight is over, let's say every can happen again but at least we made a bet on it,
409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: September 16, 2023, 11:32:33 PM
The favorites are winning. I lost both my bets.

I feel like a fool for not trusting the New York Liberty and instead taking the handicap for the Washington Mystics which is +9.5. But they did play well in the first quarter, but after that, the Liberty dominated every quarter. Good start bad ending but I like the fighting spirit.
Mystics focused their defense on Breanna Stewart and it actually worked but they cannot leave Sabrina Ionescu open. Their strategy of focusing on Stewy has a bunch of mistakes, they must defend 3 stars of that team and yes that includes Jonquel Jones.

Atlanta Dream also lost against the Dallas Wings and it's almost the same game as the first one. Dream dominated the first quarter but that's it. Wings tied the game before the end of the first half, played the 3rd quarter right, and then used full force at the fourth.

No upsets just yet. Game 2 will be more unpredictable as teams that lost in game 1 will try their everything to tie the series.

Aw! There is really something about the favorites that the bookies really like and for not trusting it this could surely happen, but certainly, we had some intuition that sometimes was right all along but this time in the play-offs maybe the bookies knew those teams could be a different team and certainly they surely are all favorites so far have all won and maybe this could continue until the Round 2 of the playoffs begins because that will be the real deal when the teams like Liberty and Aces clash at each other, or maybe I could be wrong,

Results of my bet for games yesterday

New York Liberty (1.19) VS Washington Mystics (4.10) - WIN

Well even though the Mystics defended Breanna Stewart that didn't stop the other 4 open players from making scores it was proven that strategy would not work against the New York Liberty as Betnijah Laney, Jonquel Jones, and the shooting champion Sabrina Ionescu opened and took the shots, pretty much it was a bad decision and strategy for them to focus on 1 defense, making Breanna Stewart got 10 points, Betnijah Laney got 19 points, Jonquel Jones has a double-double of 12 rebounds and 20 points, and Sabrina Ionescu got 29 points,

Dallas Wings (1.33) VS Atlanta Dream (3.05) - LOST

It was a close game the Atlanta Dream got a great start for making that kind of lead in the 1st quarter I really thought that the Atlanta Dream would then finish the game and they will surely win, but the Dallas Wings managed to snatch that in the 4th quarter, but Cheyenne Parker, Allisha Gray, and Rhyne Howard got a great start for sure but then the Dallas Wings manage to stop them for Teaira McCowan has a double-double of 14 rebound and 17 points, Arike Ogunbowale got 24 points, and Satou Sabally got 32 points for this game,



410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: F1 Formula Sports Racing - Sportsbet.io promotions & discussion thread on: September 16, 2023, 01:14:35 PM
For sure McLaren, Mercedes, Aston Martin, and Ferrari are the 2nd top teams in the F1 just next to RedBull no doubt about it when you choose racers that have the potential to go on the podium these teams are there for you to choose, for sure Max Verstappen is really undefeated in this season and I never really seen that his consecutive wins would be break anytime soon, but if Sergio Perez could master up his inner being to make it because they got the same car, for sure he likely can, but for sure any other teams might have a chance depending on their upgrades,

Right now in the Singapore GP Ferrari is dominating the Practice, actually, I haven't seen the video of the Practice 1 and 2 buttons the result it seems that there might be some issues with Max Verstappen or this is Verstappen's plan for Ferrari in lowering their guard down, thinking they can win in the race, for sure this result also happen in the last Grand Prix, and in the race Max Verstappen still manage to make his win for sure,

^^ Yuki might be on the move but not with Red Bull as everybody thought they would since they are partners with Honda so staying on with Alpha Tauri a RB team anyways.
This video explains why he might be looking to be joining Aston Martin as it aligns with Stroll possibly leaving F1.
SHOCKING MOVE for Yuki Tsunoda! - F1 Zone

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

F1 Practice 1 ended around 2 hours ago and there wasn't any rain but it is partly cloudy. So we might have a dry practice session today after all so the drivers can get a good go around the track for once.



It is shocking for sure but it is still not finalized for sure as Aston Martin and Honda are partnering with each other and for sure Yuki Tsunoda still wants to choose what team he will go with and he is surely planning to get into top teams he also said that he likes RedBull family for sure while if RedBull will be prioritizing another driver then Tsunoda could be at Aston Martin X Honda team for sure and replaced Fernando Alonso along with Lance Stroll, for sure that will be a big upgrade for Yuki Tsunoda,

Great fight for sure I wish I could be it live for sure maybe later if I am not busy because I got something to do right now, but wish I could be the main fights for this event, well good luck with all of your picks and bets for this event,

Alexa Grasso (2.37) VS Valentina Shevchenko (1.57)

For this fight, Valentina Shevchenko clearly wants to get her belt back and she already said that she still doesn't recognize the loss to Alexa Grasso as her loss, so for sure I want Grasso to beat her up again, I surely never thought that Alexa Grasso will become this good and become champion I always see her as a fighting kitten but because of that fight her technique and fighting style is truly hone so much for her to get that belt surely she listen to her corner pretty well that is why I think that she will still be winning this so my pick is clearly Alexa Grasso,



Kevin Holland (2.20) VS Jack Della Maddalena (1.65)

For this fight for sure, Jack Della Maddalena is really durable and his striking could be big trouble for Holland but for sure Kevin Holland still got a decent ground game so sure I think it is a weakness for Jack Della Maddalena for this fight I think Kevin Holland has a technicality with his striking as well for me because he got a well-rounded style my pick is Kevin Holland,



Raul Rosas Jr. (1.13) VS Terrence Mitchell (5.80)

For this fight, I really don't know Terrence Mitchell for sure but seeing him on paper for sure he got a weakness on the ground game so sure Raul Rosas Jr. got some advantage in this fight, and Rosas Jr. is also well-rounded in this fight clearly I have nothing to say, that is why Raul Rosas Jr. is the favorite to win in this fight,


412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: September 15, 2023, 10:09:36 PM

She did mention something about this newly made commemorative belt for the Mexican people:
"That is a very beautiful belt and I am going to take it Saturday night!" - Valentina Shevchenko

Don't forget to watch the event in about 10 hours tonight after the official weigh-ins sometime during today:

Noche UFC: Ceremonial Weigh-In
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkai1JvmhFM


Oh! right, it was really a beautiful belt for sure and it is incorporated with the color of Mexico and the women's division for sure maybe Valentina Shevchenko also liked it but yeah she has said herself, that she wants to get the belt for sure so going with the prediction of the fight here are my picks and prediction,

Alexa Grasso (2.37) VS Valentina Shevchenko (1.57)


For this fight, Valentina Shevchenko clearly wants to get her belt back and she already said that she still doesn't recognize the loss to Alexa Grasso as her loss, so for sure I want Grasso to beat her up again, I surely never thought that Alexa Grasso will become this good and become champion I always see her as a fighting kitten but because of that fight her technique and fighting style is truly hone so much for her to get that belt surely she listen to her corner pretty well that is why I think that she will still be winning this so my pick is clearly Alexa Grasso,

413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: September 15, 2023, 06:21:31 PM

With the following reasons you have mentioned above, no doubt i will tail your bet as i seldom see you put a bet on this kind of odds. Two key players are and still they are the favorites to win, this might be a trap but like i said i'm going to tail your bet and also i love underdogs to win ballgames hehe.

The other day, i bet for the Aces -18.5 as per my observation, they usually blew their opponents by huge margin and glad that they did.



For some reason, I am also tempted to take the Atlanta Dream for this game, and because they are the underdog for this game it is really tempting to get a win for the match-up,. I really think that the Atlanta Dream can also win this game in my opinion and they could win on paper for sure,

Now this is my bet for the games today,

New York Liberty (1.19) VS Washington Mystics (4.10)

The game will commence at Barclays Center the home of the New York Liberty, for this game the New York Liberty don't have any injuries, while Shakira Austin has a hip injury and is questionable if she can play for this game, and Kristi Toliver has a knee injury and is out for this season, for this game the New York Liberty is pretty much the number 1 in the Eastern Conference for sure while the Washington Mystics is at 4th seed so for sure this is a win for the Liberty so I will put some huge amount on this one,



Dallas Wings (1.33) VS Atlanta Dream (3.05)
 
The game will commence at College Park Center the home of the Dallas Wings, for this game the Dallas Wings Lou Lopez Senechal and Diamond DeShields both got knee injuries and are out for this season, while Atlanta Dream got Asia Durr has a knee injury and is questionable if she can play for the Dallas Wings, and Nia Coffey has a hand injury and are out for this season, for this game the Atlanta Dream is on the top list while the Wings are really struggling for me I like the odds, so my pick is the Atlanta Dream

Congratulations brother for winning both games last night. It sure is a small amount for the money line but a win is still a win. Nice bets.
So the expected winners did win their games in Round 1 and the first games of the playoffs. Let's see what will happen on the next four teams that will play tomorrow. (GMT +8)

New York Liberty versus Washington Mystics - This game might become a difficult one for Liberty because the Mystics have been showing toughness ever since Elena Delle Donne is back. Liberty cannot just underestimate them and I won't too when it comes to betting.
The spreads are -9.5 for Liberty @1.88 and +9.5 for the Mystics @1.82. Seems like a sweet deal betting taking that +9.5 for the Mystics but I am having a tough time to decide since both teams have my favorite players EDD and Stewy. Why did they even meet this early in the playoffs? Crap.

Next game.
Dallas Wings versus Atlanta Dream - Almost like a good match and it's also hard to decide who is going to win between these two teams. I am waiting for the odds to come out since Stake.com has not posted it yet.

For sure those two games next are very interesting and apparently, I haven't made a decision yet on whose to pick for my bet but maybe I will bet and post it later for the time being, I also made a small amount of money because of the games yesterday and because of the odds I need to put a huge amount just to get a huge amount as well and here are my results for the games Yesterday,

Connecticut Sun (1.19) VS Minnesota Lynx (3.99)

The Connecticut Sun is clearly the more dominant team against the Minnesota Lynx and they have proven that in this game sure the Lynx doesn't have any answer at all and maybe it was because of their injured players but for sure the Connecticut Sun is more formidable than they can think off, for this game Alyssa Thomas was the playmaker for this team surely she was great in that and making 10 Assist for this game, while DeWanna Bonner is the team's rebounder and team score maker, clearly every player for the Sun is making points for sure each teams in the playoffs will surely become a different team when entering the Play-offs,



Las Vegas Aces (1.04) VS Chicago Sky (8.20)

The Las Vegas Aces just like the Sun in the 1st game also dominated the fight against the Chicago Sky and there is no surprise to that because the Aces are the current Champion, we will surely see if the Las Vegas Aces will continue doing great wins for the rest of the season, for this team, Jackie Young was the team playmaker and has a great contribution with needed points for the team giving 6 assist and 18 points for this game while Chelsea Gray has provided a great advantage with the score giving 20 points for this game, for sure that is an effective play for the Las Vegas Aces, against the Chicago Sky,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37dxPTxe8EQ


WOW! They are now customizing belts for the fighters as well just like in the WWE when John Cena had his spinning belt well I love the design for sure it got the vibe not only for the Mexican but also because this is a women's match and particularly the fighters are ladies it got the vibe that the belt is for the Women's division, this is really something new for the UFC to do, and I likely it at all, I think Women should be women and not like Shevchenko that are sparring with guys just to be ready against Alexa Grasso and for me she is delusional and doesn't want to believe that she lost the 1st match,

Moving on!
Alexa Grasso versus Valentina Shevchenko 2.
From the co-main event to the main event of the evening. (saying that always makes me remember Bruce Buffer.)  Cheesy

Alexa Grasso has never failed me when it comes to betting, she may be my lucky charm and I wish it will continue. From my first bet for her @7.00 which was huge as an underdog to become the new Women Flyweight champion against Vivian Araujo and defeating Shevchenko on their first meeting.
Again she is the underdog in this second fight of them.
Here are the odds for the two ladies who will fight this Saturday evening.

Alexa Grasso - | Win - @2.37 | By KO @15.00 | By Submission @5.20 | By Decision @4.10 |
Valentina Shevchenko - | Win - @1.57 | By KO @4.60 | By Submission @7.40 | By Decision @2.46 |


Notice the difference in submission. Grasso is the favorite because of history as she ended their fight last time thru submission in Round 4.
Good luck everyone.

The people are trusting Alexa Grasso in the ground now because of what she did in the 1st round, that was kind of a difference between the money line and the Submission betting, for sure many are trusting Grasso with the submission while maybe in the striking they prefer Valentina Shevchenko but for me on that 1st fight I have seen that Alexa Grasso have some great highlights when it comes to the Striking and because she is now a technical striker now this is going to be an interesting fight for sure,

Here are my picks and predictions for games today,

Connecticut Sun (1.19) VS Minnesota Lynx (3.99)

The game will commence at Mohegan Sun Arena, home of the Connecticut Sun, Brionna Jones has an Achilles injury and is out for this season, Bernadett Hatar has a knee injury and DiJonai Carrington has a foot injury and both are questionable if they can play, and Tiffany Hayes has a knee injury and can not play for the Connecticut Sun, while Jessica Shepard has an ankle injury, Lindsay Allen has a thumb injury, and Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem and all can not play for the Minnesota Lynx for this game  because the Connecticut Sun is doing great lately that is why I am going with the Connecticut Sun,



Las Vegas Aces (1.04) VS Chicago Sky (8.20)

The game will commence at Michelob ULTRA Arena, home of the Las Vegas Aces, Riquna Williams has been suspended, Candace Parker has an ankle injury, and can not play for the Aces Rebekah Gardner has a foot injury, and Isabelle Harrison has a knee injury, and both is out for this season  Alanna Smith has an ankle injury and Kahleah Copper has a toe injury and both are questionable if they can play for the Chicago Sky, for this game the domination for the Las Vegas Aces is there and for sure the match with end with the winning of the Dominant team, for sure my pick is the Las Vegas Aces,

I see people started talking about Adesanya vs Strickland rematch, but it is interesting to see that Strickland training partner before this fight was Alex Pereira, I think this played a huge role in his win.

It is time to move on to next fight this weekend between Alexa Grasso and Valentina Shevchenko.
Odds are in favor of Shevchenko but she lost last fight against Grasso and she needs to work real hard to get her title back.
It is always harder to defend title so I am giving slight advantage to Shevchenko, but I like odds for Grasso.
This is goping to be interesting one to watch, maybe Grasso being younger could be one of her advantage.


For sure many still can not fathom what really happened in the UFC 293 with the main event Many are still shocked by what Strickland has done, but for sure there is no doubt that Izzy totally lost that fight he doesn't have any answers when it comes to Strickland's defense and Izzy couldn't find an opening, And So I think we are done with the UFC 293 and because we have ourselves a new event this week and so here are the fight night event next week,

^^

Kittens fighting in main event - in few minutes YuginKadoya gonna appear here Cheesy And I as usually gonna skip that. There are few familiar names in the card, like Holland and youngest kid in UFC (Rosas Jr.), but I find low interest in watching the event. Probably gonna skip and just watch a review after. The post fight discussion of Izzy vs Strickland seems more interesting than next event Cheesy Dont think we need a instant rematch, as it a clear fight, 4-1 by rounds in Strickland favour.

Actually, I liked Alexa Grasso If you watch her last 2 fights against Viviane Araújo and Valentina Shevchenko it was a spectacle as those two fight was technical win for Grasso surely Alexa Grasso is a different fighter now as she now has a submission in her arsenal, well that is your choice if you want to skip this fight,

Well, sure many can still not believe that Israel Adesanaya lost to Sean Strickland for sure but that basic attack of Strickland surely is enough to take on  Adesanya easily, If you look at Bruce Lee's saying "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times." Strickland surely applied that in his training regime and motivation

^  Yeah but main event is a title match tho.  So not bad for a Fight Night.  Another couple of guys to watch are Daniel Zellhuber and Roman Kopylov.  These guys could be future contenders.  A parlay of them both wouldn't be a bad idea imho.  Wink

Anyway, here's a free fight vid from their first match.  It's prolly the biggest upset in UFC history.  I think Shef was like a 10 to 1 favorite for the match.  :/

As for the Holland vs the JDM match up, I'm on the Holland side.  Could end with a sub.

Nice! Thanks for sharing this Now I have seen the fight again on how Alexa Grasso won the belt, and it was a stunning fight for sure Valentina Shevchenko was really winning the fight but that spinning kick cost her to lose because Grasso capitalized on this and got into Valentina Shevchenko's back and I think Alexa Grasso is winning the striking for sure on the rematch I think Alexa Grasso still will be winning in this fight, but if Shevchenko didn't adjust for this fight,

Now I think we are done with the shocking result for the UFC 293, and it was really unexpected for sure that we got caught off guard with that same strategy of Sean Strickland that mesmerized us in catching Adesanya by it, for sure Some is not yet moved on with the result but as we are embarking on a new week for sure a new event is about to start and here it is as we now prepare for another juicy fight night,

^  Try these strats and see what you like...

https://tl.net/forum/bw-strategy/436604-collection-of-strategy-threads

Those are written really well and emphizes the build order from start to finish for each strat and for each race.  Enjoy.  Wink

Anyway, the betting market for Round of 16 is up at Stake.

https://stake.com/sports/starcraft-1

Rooting for Calm to win his first match.  He's somewhat a huge underdog, almost paying 4 to 1 for your money...  Don't do as I do and don't do as I say.  Grin

WOW! Thanks to these strategies I will surely look for some combo and surely the Zerg has the ability to rapidly increase the Zergling so much that you can surely do a Zergling rush, sure disrupt your opponent gathering and strategy I was having a ton of fun with the Zerg for now and Sorry was busy playing it on the laptop maybe I would build a PC so I can play it on my wide Screen I think this is a great game if we have a widescreen monitor ready for this all I need was a great build on a PC for sure,

Actually, because I was busy I didn't make a bet on the tournament and I didn't monitor the tournament on who had already won or who made progress with their wins,
