This is not going towards Palencia personally, as I don't know who he is, but whenever I hear that some fighter is, in this day and age, a 10-0, I just can't help but wonder how much of his record was just orchestrated. I observed that in my local MMA scenes where fighters would get extremely easy, inexperienced fighters to beef up their score so they would be more attractive for bigger promotions. It's not really uncommon all that much. Some of them turn out to be great in the end, but 10-0 really doesn't say much on paper.
He was champion in LFA or Legacy Fighting Alliance is American MMA competition so he is not some low quality street fighter and Scott Cooker won't hire just about anyone for his Bellator. I know that LFA had multi year contract with UFC, and I am not sure if that is still valid, but it shows that they have talents, and examples are Henry Cejudo, Kamaru Usman, and Valentina Shevchenko who all came from LFA to UFC.

Well said. I would replace "genetics" with "upbringing", because I think that words you hear and deeds you see while growing up are way more important for what you become than molecules in your body, but overall yeah, that's what makes you a champ. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Tyson Fury is a good example. Having a lot of professional boxers among his relatives, surely he was influenced by them. There is something great coming along as we speak about this things, Tyson Fury and MMA are talking about creating one super fight between Fury and Francis Ngannou. This would be amazing heavyweight fight to watch and both of them are talking about this on social media, there are early posters already ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I don't know if this would be boxing rules with MMA gloves or MMA rules with boxing gloves ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FHpgGgsg%2Fimgd0a1f579b35e4b9c80764959935f10ef.jpg&t=663&c=hjoz-Jw5MU1JUQ)

First month of new year 2022 and I am taking a look on state of Bitcoin mining pools in January. F2Pool jumped back in first place with 16.67% of total hashrate, but Foundry USA and AntPool are just behind them with both having 15.74% of total hashrate. Poolin made a big comeback and they are now in fourth place, slightly above ViaBTC in fifth place. Binance pool drop one place from December and they are now in 6th place with 10.65% of hashrate, followed by many smaller pools. MARA Pool currently have 1.62% of hashrate that is drop from last month, and one unknown pool is here again with 1.16% hashrate. Full list of pools can be found on link below image. https://explorer.btc.com/btc/insights-pools

Or simply putting an ACTIVE or INACTIVE at the end of the description should do. Just want to add that OP can also consider changing the font color for the activity status to make it more noticeable. Just my 2 cents but still OP has the final touch.
I don't have enough time to make cosmetic color changes, or to check links all the time if websites are active or inactive, but you or someone else can help me and post that for me. I will update first post if more people can confirm that changes are correct and they contribute something new. If you do look at these sites then these are bookies. They are including all sites doesnt matter if its a casino or bookies.
I am not saying that all this betting websites are scams, this is just my personal list of websites I am avoiding for betting, because of stated reasons. Even legitimate websites could find place on my list if I find some warning signs or I hear negative reports from customers.

I am also running a Sportsbet sponsored pool for AFCON so if you are interested come join. Pool is free to join for current participants of any Sportsbet sponsored pool which should be most of you reading this ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I have no idea how to predict those AFCON matches and I see that some teams have big problems with missing players, and it's going to be very interesting competition. Sarr was never going to play anyway, the Hornets didn't want to lose him so wrote to get him released (also got it for Denis who won't play for Nigeria).
Maybe that is true and missing him is a big blow , but yesterday national team doctors was allowed to check his condition and see if he is really injured or not. Now all Senegal team is hit by virus just days before start of African Cup of Nations. https://www.thestar.com/sports/soccer/2022/01/05/senegal-latest-team-hit-by-virus-days-ahead-of-african-cup.htmlI will be rooting for Egypt & my main man, Mo Salah.
They have good chance this year to win the trophy and odds are lowest for them to win after Senegal and Algeria. https://sportsbet.io/sports/soccer/international/africa-cup-of-nations/outrightsReminder that I am currently running Sportsbet.io ⚽ FA Cup Special prediction competition and winners can win Cash, Shirts from Arsenal or Southampton, and FREE bets. Good Luck everyone, and thank you Sportsbet for support ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

News from Bellator MMA is saying that Scott Cooker signed LFA bantamweight champion Richard Palencia, who is undefeated with perfect 10-0 record. I never watched him before and I couldn't find any of his recent fights on youtube, but he is great potential and in his prime with having 31 years. Andrey Koreshkov vs Mukhamed Berkhamov is new fight added for Bellator 274, and Bellator is planning to make Liz Carmouche vs Juliana Velasquez for flyweight title in April.

Her's a great boxer, no doubt about it, but looking at his boxing record, Total fights: 50, Wins: 50, Wins by KO:27, Losses: 0, I think he should be extremely thankful to have such good managers throughout his career. On the other hand, it wasn't only because of luck that he got them. He was born into a family of boxers, his father and uncles were professionals, so surely they had right connections. And, of course, he's a genius himself, a hard working one, you can't take that away from him.
I think it's the same thing with heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, he is amazing fighter but genetics helped a lot because his family is all doing boxing, I think one of his uncles or grandparent was local boxing champ. His younger brother is boxer and I think that one of his children will continue this legacy. It's combination of hard work, talent, genetics and a pinch of luck to be undefeated champion in any sport... Maybe Khabib would be one good MMA example, we know his father was great in combat sports and he was a great coach for him.

I will surely post this upcoming event that presents some Filipino fighters, and that is Jeremy Miado and Robin Catalan I will look at some of their stats and records.
That heavyweight co-main fight Roman Kryklya vs Murat Aygun does look interesting Kickboxing fight, and I think they are going to broadcast this event for FREE on youtube again, so why not watch it. It is a nice warmup for more serious UFC competitions that start few days later. Russia for Fedor's retirement is a no-brainer. He's the biggest star there, followed by Japan and Europe. He has some fandom in the US, but not even close to Russia. And Baders having scheduled fights...well, I'm sure things can be rearranged ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I know people from all over the world who still considers Fedor to be best MMA fighter ever, and I think that he is one of the top heavyweight fighters ever. Dana White for sure don't like that Fedor never signed for UFC, but money is not most important thing for him.

This is the response I received from support regarding that issue, that can happen if you are from a blocked country. It should always load without an issue if you are not from one.
I don't know how it is possible that one day it's not working because of allegedly blocked country, but tomorrow everything is working fine ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Where exactly can we find full list of blocked countries? I found this in Terms and conditions page, is that correct or not?

And how did that work out? Did they listen to your suggestions and implemented the things you asked for?
Nothing changed for BetJA website, but I was very diligent so I asked many times all other betting websites, and I think that one of them is adding this feature. Someone from forum told me this will be Fortunejack, and when one of them starts with this live bets I think other competition will follow them. I will report about this if any changes happen in future.

I saw this promotion today and I think it's great, with Free Chip Back Outright Offer you are getting some mBTC each time your team wins, in addition to winning a bet if selected team win AFCON. I was also thinking about picking Senegal but their best striker Ismaila Sarr is injured and probably he won't play in Cup of Nations. My pick was Algeria, they have good team, they are in easier group and they recently won Arab Cup in final with Tunisia. Cameron is a host nation, that can be nice alternative bet. Looks like the 1st leg of the cup semi final on Thursday (Arsenal vs LFC) will be called off. Liverpool squad is suffering from a covid breakout. Shame as I was looking forward to this.
It's a shame but Arsenal will have more time to better prepare for FA Cup match starting in few days. Is Salah and Mane OK and are they going to African Cup of Nations?

FA Cup Third Round Proper is starting this weekend and we have some very interesting matches after joining 44 clubs from Premier League and the Championship. To avoid possible postponements of the matches and complications in schedule, there will be extra time and penalties if match is ended with draw result. I am expecting to see some surprises because many clubs are affected by missing or injured players and they just entered new year. Swindon Town v Manchester City Bristol City v Fulham Burnley v Huddersfield Town Coventry City v Derby County Hartlepool United v Blackpool Mansfield Town v Middlesbrough Millwall v Crystal Palace Barnsley v Ipswich Town or Barrow Boreham Wood v AFC Wimbledon Kidderminster Harriers v Reading Leicester City v Watford Newcastle United v Cambridge United Peterborough United v Bristol Rovers Port Vale v Brentford Queens Park Rangers v Rotherham United West Bromwich Albion v Brighton & Hove Albion Wigan Athletic v Blackburn Rovers Birmingham City v Plymouth Argyle Chelsea v Chesterfield Hull City v Everton Swansea City v Southampton Yeovil Town v AFC Bournemouth Luton Town v Harrogate Town Cardiff City v Preston North End Charlton Athletic v Norwich City Liverpool v Shrewsbury Town Stoke City v Leyton Orient Tottenham Hotspur v Morecambe Wolverhampton Wanderers v Sheffield United West Ham United v Leeds United Nottingham Forest v Arsenal Manchester United v Aston Villa https://www.thefa.com/competitions/thefacupYou can join FA Cup Sportsbet competition in forum and get FREE Bets, Cash and Shirts from Arsenal or Southampton! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5379914.0

Oh my Gosh, Manchester United seems to be falling apart, they lost todays match against average Wolves and they are both so close on table with only three point difference. They now have 18 points less than first place City rival, and that must hurt a lot ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) On the bright side, we'red 3/1 underdogs to beat Arsenal in Carabao... easy triple bankroll right?
I think that Liverpool will be missing many first team players and they will rest others, so I would give much more chances to Arsenal to win this time.

I have been helping betnomi here and there for a couple years now, owner is still the same.
OK, I see they changed website a lot and it does look better, but I couldn't access any of the markets yesterday and it was loading non stop. I could browse all the pages but I couldn't see any odds and matches, but when I checked again today everything is working fine. I am not sure if that was some website issue or what, because I did new registration and there was no history or old cookies.

They offer almost no volleyball markets whatsoever. I noticed that at the beginning but thought it would change with time. Mostly you can only place a bet on the full-time results and nothing else. Things like handicaps are missing or the total number of sets are missing. Those markets are available on other sportsbooks. And very often when the match is in-play, you can't place live bets on volleyball at all.
You need to ask them to add any markets and sports that are missing and maybe they will consider adding them. They can only add something that people show demand for betting, and volleyball is not very popular in all countries around the world. Few months ago I asked them to make some changes for MMA betting because I am looking for betting on Live MMA fights.

This round turned out great for Bournemouth, they collected most points from all top clubs and they are now in first place again with three points more than Blackburn Rovers. Fulham, West Brom, QPR and Huddersfield Town are currently in play-off zone positions, and some of them disappointed their fans this weekend especially West Brom. Derby is still keeping their great run without lost match and they won one point against Reading with two goals in last moments of the match.
Top goal scorers for now are: Mitrovic (Fulham) 22, Brereton (Blackburn) 20, Solanke (Bournemouth) 18.
Championship League is taking small but deserved break and next round 27 is scheduled for January 15, but one previously postponed match should be played few days before.
