Well, it looks like Garcia had one hell of a plan. Make everyone think you’re crazy and get the odds stacked way against you. Then bet millions of dollars on yourself to get a huge payday if you win. Then finally use steroids and don’t make weight to give yourself a massive strength advantage. Dude is playing chess, but this is pretty disgraceful. Still, I think he took home over 50 million…
We will see, although the news came from a reliable source, still we need to hear it official from the governing body on whether Ryan has been found a banned substance in his system. And after that Ryan can refute it or not and fight it out with regards to the charges. Like in this case, https://www.sportskeeda.com/pro-boxing/wbc-clears-conor-benn-positive-tests-due-excessive-egg-consumptionThe WBC found that: (1) there was no conclusive evidence that Mr. Benn engaged in intentional or knowing ingestion of Clomiphene; (2) there were no failures in the procedures related to sample collection, sample analysis, or violations of Mr. Benn’s B Sample rights that would justify questioning or invalidating the Adverse Finding; and (3) Mr. Benn’s documented and highly-elevated consumption of eggs during the times relevant to the sample collection, raised a reasonable explanation for the Adverse Finding." Ryan Garcia has been denying this on social media and he has been telling all of his followers that he is being attacked very much similar to how Trump is being attacked. He also shared a video of Devin Haney's brother who was telling his followers that Allah was telling him that Ryan Garcia was using steroids while Devin's brother was in prayer. This is head shaking because who is the real crazy between the 2? In any case, I wish this will only be a similar to situation to Conor Benn. Boxing does not need this type of scandal. I will trust Ryan's words until he is proven a cheater. It will be a big discredit to Ryan if he is proven but I believe this one is just a fake news, Haney's camp just could not accept that the crazy look Ryan beat their boy who is aiming to be a hall of famer. They have to proved that, and Ryan could file a case against them if they are really spreading this lies just to destroy the reputation of Ryan and will null his win. I have thought of a very head shaking conspiracy theory and if this is true this might be a very genius psychological campaign created by King Ry's team. What if this steroids scandal was also created by Ryan to keep everyone talking about him? What if sample A was intentionally with steroids and sample B is very clean? If proven innocent after the release of sample B's results, everyone will begin talking about him for many weeks again. King Ry might be trying to keep the attention on him until December heheheheheheheee. |

^^ And this is what Ryan has to say against McGregor,  https://twitter.com/RyanGarcia/status/1786462011968369115Are we going to see Conor vs Ryan in the future?  for the biggest cross-over fight? UFC vs Boxer? Funny thing is, everyone is jumping on the bandwagon including one of the biggest UFC superstar during his prime, LOL. Ryan denied it already, so for now let's give him the benefit of the doubt. But if he submitted again and failed then maybe there is truth on it. Conor will be sleeping on a stretcher being pulled by uncle Dana. It also appears King Ry is presently the most popular name in boxing. Canelo's fight vs. the other Mexican boxer I did not know was finished already! I was watching only UFC hehehehe. How was Canelo and his young Mexican opponent? Was this exciting for another forgetful fight? There is not much fans talking about this, I reckon. Much of the attention is still on King Ry hhehehee. Also, Inoue was also not very thrilling after round 1. He should again go to a heavier weight division and challenge a good boxer with a name similar to Brandon Figueroa. This might make Inoue's name more known to American fans. Stephen Fulton appear to have not done this for him. |

@Zadicar. Was this really an adjustment that Inoue has done beginning on round 2 or was this Nery beginning to become not very aggressive? It appeared that Nery was not very aggressive anymore after the round. I reckon if Nery continued the pressure, this might cause Inoue to walk backward and he cannot throw his power punch which might give Nery another chance to punch Inoue's jaw.
On Naoya Inoue's victory, congratulations to him and his team. Also to the Japanese fans hehehe. However, it appears his next opponent is not very good and we can be quite certain that this will be in Japan again. Inoue might not become something similar to Pacman in fame after he retires.

There's a little over two weeks for the fight now as the promo hasn't even started yet nor have either parties been posting about it on socials.
This has dragged on for so long that it has killed most of the hype. We originally thought they were going to fight in 2022, only for them to go in separate directions over disagreements about how much money they each thought they deserved. The Saudis then came in and were able to meet their financial demands but a poor performance against Ngannou and a sparring injury delayed it further. Usyk also didn’t leave the best impression in his previous fight, where he managed to survive due to some dubious refereeing. Agreed. This might be because Tyson Fury might want to lose more weight, however, he cannot stop eating his junkfood and cannot stop drinking beer hehehe. Might this also he because of the use of steroids? I reckon some athletes need more time to make it untraceable from urine and blood samples because of their slower metabolism. It certainly appears that Fury has a slow metabolism hehehehe. |

I also just heard of this news. The skeptical me sometimes is thinking that these injuries are tactics to make their training longer because they are not ready for the fight. I have always speculated this on Tyson Fury.
On this new main event with Wilder and Zhang, I certainly disagree that this is good. The both of them have lost in their last fights and they will be the main event? That will be very headshaking. Can the promoters get a replacement for Beterbiev.
That can be true, they do this to prolong the matches, they might not say it but that's definitely their intention. I don't the reason for the delay though, is it for stalling tactics to mess with the psyche of the opponents like what Musashi Miyamoto did with Sasaki Kojiro because that's how I see the reason for why they delay these fights. Haven't heard a lot about these two fighters though, Bivol's the tough looking one though, I feel like he could take the punishment and deliver the right blow. Heheheh I can see that you also like to read. This is from the Book of 5 Rings, correct? Was the battle against Sasaki Kojiro was where Musashi arrived on a small boat going to the shore, carrying a long wooden baseball bat with sharp edge? In any case, I reckon Bivol should fight the next fighter available that might bring much hype. I reckon that this is David Benavidez. Everyone might like to witness him after Canelo's attempt hehe. News update on Bivol. WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol will remain on the June 1st card to fight a replacement opponent after his fight against IBF/WBC/WBO 175-lb champ Artur Beterbiev suffered a ruptured meniscus knee injury and will be out of action while recovering.
ESPN reports that Bivol (22-0, 11 KOs) will stay on the June 1st card at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Fans on social media would like to see David Morrell face Bivol as the replacement. Morrell is currently scheduled to fight Radivoje Kalajdzic for the vacant WBA ‘regular’ light heavyweight title on August 3rd on His Excellency Turki Alalshikh’s card at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.Source https://www.boxingnews24.com/2024/05/bivol-to-fight-replacement-opponent-on-june-1st-after-beterbiev-injury/ |

This stupid grandma Warren. A letter? Does this honorable senator want to increase American military presence in the middle east and escalate the situation into direct war because this grandma is anticrypto? Does she know what she is doing or is everything only because of corporate interests by her backers? Who are the biggest political campaign donators on this grandma? I will not be very shocked if much of them are people from the traditional banking industry.  US senators Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Angus King (I-Maine) this week warned in a letter to government officials that Iran’s Bitcoin mining industry has created a revenue stream big enough to weaken the effects of economic sanctions.
Crypto mining allows Iran “to purchase imports, move funds domestically and internationally, and fund Hamas” and other terrorist organisations, the letter said, adding that this “ongoing activity by the Iranian government threatens our national security.”
The letter, citing numerous sources, noted that Iran is one of the world’s biggest Bitcoin producers, estimated to account for as much as 7% of the global market in 2021, when its mining revenue may have totaled $1 billion.
It went on to say that “Iranian cryptominers are required to sell the crypto they produce to the Iranian central bank, which in turn uses the crypto to pay for imports and exports.”
The letter was sent to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen, and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, questioning them on what the Biden administration was doing to deter Iran’s evasion of sanctions through crypto mining.Read in full https://www.dlnews.com/articles/snapshot/senators-say-iran-using-bitcoin-mining-to-evade-sanctions/ |

Well, not surprising at all! The way US government have started cracking down on crypto related services, it was just a matter of time before rest of the governments follow the same path. So EU has joined the bandwagon to start their surveillance on the internet because they consider mixing services illegal. The way various governments are moving, I don't think crypto users will be able to stay anonymous anymore. That itself will defeat the whole purpose of cryptocurrency.
In coming years. cryptocurrency will remain as an investment and that majority of the supply will be controlled by the corporates and government bodies. Those days are not far, sadly!
I very much agree. Presently they are firmly going after your privacy in the cryptospace with some warning signs that they will next begin to go after the ability of personal custody over your own cryptocoins and assets. My argument is if the future of the cryptospace is no privacy and no self custody then what would be the use of this? What would be the use of decentralization? These coins will only be for trading and pump dump similar to the stock market? What if they also remove this for small minnows like us by telling us that we are not allowed to trade them? |

Unfortunately, Artur Beterbiev is once again injured and this fight will be postponed. The rest of the card, which is the 5 v 5 Matchroom vs Queensberry event will still go on. It is still a good card headlined by Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang but its still a disappointment that one of the most anticipated fights in recent history will not be happening.
Beterbiev is no stranger to injury. Many of his fights have been postponed due to injury. This is why he has so few fights for a 39 year old.
I also just heard of this news. The skeptical me sometimes is thinking that these injuries are tactics to make their training longer because they are not ready for the fight. I have always speculated this on Tyson Fury. On this new main event with Wilder and Zhang, I certainly disagree that this is good.

@zasad@. The tokens were not sold privately to investors with a promise to earn something with those tokens. Also this is where the confusion begins on using the Howey test on tokens because it can also bw considered that the tokens are the oranges and they are not the orange farm. Uncle Gary was arguing that the action of issuance on these tokens make them a security. But the judge made a ruling against this argument.
On the tokens that are being traded on exchanges and on platforms similar to Uniswap, these are not securities because there is no contract for these tokens to earn something if investors hold them. They are very much similar to memecoins.

One of the things Wilder complained about during their trilogy was that Fury was lean on to him and by using his weight he forced Wilder to use energy to try to push back. I am unsure how Usyk would handle that tactic if it were employed by Fury but he was successful when he shrugged off Joshua when he was clinging on in their fights. And with his size, it can also be used as a tool, in the Wilder fight, Fury has a weight advantage of 42 lbs, and if he weight this much here, it will be clearly like a CW in Usyk, fighting a super Heavyweight and it will illustrate in this fight as he will used all that to push Usyk and put him in the corner. To be fair that's a common tactic in boxing. Not only does it give the boxer a breather but it drains your opponent of energy as they have to bare their weight. Fury tried doing it to Ngannou but Francis was too heavy/strong and it backfired. Tyson will 100% use this against Usyk given he's the taller and heavier man, but I expect Tyson will play dirty in other ways like low blows and elbows, especially if it's clear he is losing. His current physical condition seems to be questionable. It does look as though he has lost lot of weight, a bit too lean and that could mean a big disadvantage because Fury does have a tendency to use his size and weight to pressure opponents by leaning in to them. You would presume it is going to help Fury will be active and fast with his fists but after his recent fights how many people think he is actually going to win? Have you seen the pictures where it showed that Tyson Fury has presently lost much weight? He also tends to post older photos from times he was more in shape. Don't believe anything unless it's guaranteed new photos or videos. Tyson could also be in excellent shape right this moment but be in a completely different one by the time the fight comes for better or worse. Usyk is in shape all year around and Tyson yo-yos and struggles to stay in shape. I speculate that Tyson Fury did not go through his normal training routine against Francis Ngannou because he underestimated Francis. If he did this, we can be quite certain that Tyson Fury would have given Francis a knockout very much similar to Anthony Joshua. On Tyson Fury's yo-yo and struggle. This is the most important fight of Tyson Fury's career, I reckon. He will be in the best muscular form for a fat boxer in his age. He might not be very muscular, however, he will also not be fat and slow for this fight. He said he took it serious both before and after the fight, but we all know we can't believe what he says given he lies so much, but there's also the possibility that he's just not as good as we thought he was. I guess this Usyk fight really is going to be the litmus test because there's no sleepwalking into this fight out of shape as Usyk will dismantle him and if Tyson loses then he's lost to a 'jumped up middleweight' in his own words. There's a little over two weeks for the fight now as the promo hasn't even started yet nor have either parties been posting about it on socials. However not as good as he was after what we have witnessed on his fight against Francis Ngannou? Ngannou cannot be the person that will erase all of his victories against all of his opponents who are real boxers, would it not? On what is the litmus test, we have witnessed this already against Wladimir Klitschko and Deontay Wilder, I reckon. Those victories have proven that he has passed the test. This fight against Usyk will be proof that he might be a heavyweight goat if he wins. Also, if Fury wins, I predict his next opponent will be Anthony Joshua. |

It appears that the sportsbooks have very much underestimated this sexy fighting kitten Karolina Kowalkiewicz hehehe. Why are they doing this to her? She has more experience than Iasmin Lucindo, the Brazilian mannish woman that she is fighting, she has challenged for the championship before and she is also more sexy and beautiful. She will be a very good underdog bet, I reckon. She will win with a decision. Do not underestimate this woman. This is the picture that she sent to me last night after her dinner hehehehe.  |

As far as I understand all this, offering mixing services will be illegal, but using such services will not be outlawed.
Using them is not outlawed because they can take down any service they want whenever they want. They want to see who is crazy enough to take that risk. They probably think, if this person desperately wants to mix his coins, he probably has something to hide, let’s check. Another thing is, they probably seize these mixing services way before they announce their involvement… just to collect more data. Using centralized mixing services never made any sense to me because of that. Decentralized services will be available anyway. Not every dev lives in a country they can reach. Can they get to a dev that lives in Russia for example? I don’t think so but this time your data will be in the hands of Putin. This however weakens the fungibility of bitcoin. The owners the coins that do not listen and mix their coins, they're coins might not be accepted by businesses, exchanges in the cryptospace and those marked coins might have lower value in the market. Will everyone want to keep marked coins in their wallets? Innocent or guilty, this will only give the government a reason to find a crime in your activities in the cryptospace. Another head shaking problem people who want to use bitcoin as a medium of exchange. |

@zasad@. The victory in the case on Ripple is the judges ruling that have declared that the tokens by themselves are not securities. This might open a new roadmap for development teams on how to issue tokens without making it a security. I speculate that proof of work will become useful again in this new distribution method where projects will use proof of work for distribution then make the transformation to proof of stake. It might be similar to Ethereum without the premine.

It is being reported that Ryan Garcia has tested positive for performance enhancing drugs. It is really disappointing that this great win is now tarnished and will probably be overturned. There was so many potentially great fights that will now have to wait and may not even materialize.
There was even talk of Ryan being the new face of boxing after he gained millions of new followers after this win. Unfortunately, Ryan can’t manage to get his act together. He is more interested in being an influencer than having a legitimate career.
Agreed, this is very head scratching. I only discovered this news when I was looking for news updates and developments on the spot ETF for bitcoin in Australia heheh. However, Ryan Garcia is denying it and he also said in social media that he has never taken a steroid. I reckon if he is being framed, this needs to have an investigation. However, if he is lying, we will witness the crazy Ryan to create a more crazier image on social media. I predict he will declare that the Illuminati is attacking him. Star boxer Ryan Garcia tested positive for the performance-enhancing substance ostarine the day before and the day of his upset win over Devin Haney last month, per a Voluntary Anti-Doping Association letter sent to all parties Wednesday and obtained by ESPN.
The urine samples were collected prior to the fight, but the results weren't known until later.
Garcia has 10 days to request that his B-sample be tested. Garcia's A-sample also screened positive for 19-norandrosterone, but its presence is unconfirmed until further lab analysis.
"Everybody knows that I don't cheat," Garcia said in a video posted on X. "Never taken a steroid. ... I don't even know where to get steroids. ... I barely take supplements. Big lies, I beat his ass."
Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions said in a statement that it is working with Garcia's team to "determine how this finding came to be."
"Ryan has put out multiple statements denying knowingly using any banned substances -- and we believe him," Golden Boy said in its statement.Source https://www.espn.com.au/boxing/story/_/id/40066162/boxer-ryan-garcia-tested-positive-banned-substance-ostarine |

Might want to source a local media outlet given such govt entities don't usually give running commentaries about what they *might* do. (don't get me wrong - I don't doubt an overseas media outlet is speculating, but that's not the same as if it were announced here in Australia).
Agreed. I will look for this in Australian financial media next time for confirmation. However, the news also began according to Bloomberg which implies that it is only a speculation that Australia might also approve and launch a spot ETF for bitcoin. I will change the title of this thread to indicate that this is only speculation. Also, if you have any news updates on this, please share them in the thread, thank you. |

@tabas. It was taken on 2021 or 2022 when the fud campaign on Binance was only beginning. CZ wrote 4 rules on how Binance will survive on a bear market. No.4 is do not listen to the fud and every time there was fud on Binance, he would share that image with 4 fingers.
In any case, it appears that he made 4 a reality. He was sentenced on the 4th month, on the 4th year of the 2020s and he was given 4 months hehehee.

@Kemarit. You are correct. There is no argument against the signing of the contract with the rehydration clause is Ryan's fault. My argument is against the fans who do not consider the rehydration clause as the cause of King Ry's loss. Similar to what you have said, Tank will not fight this version of King Ry because he does not want to fight King Ry where he is strongest. However, King Ry agreed to fight Tank in his strongest and with a rehydration clause hehehehehe. I reckon it is very clear who will create a bigger legacy. This will not be Tank.

It appears that you are the perfect victim for the trolling of King Ry in social media hehehehe. This occurs to people who are always believing in what they read on the internet or in newspapers. They are using you and taking advantage of you my friend. King Ry has tricked many people already, I shake my head that this is still working on some people. Everyone should begin to be very skeptical on what Ryan will say. He will be a crazier troll or he might be starting to have a real sickness in his head. I am quite certain he is only trolling.
We all are a victim of his trolling  I'm just surprised that he easily mastered the art of trolling this will make bettors bet on his next fight, with Ryan's success in trolling I'm sure he will repeat it on his next fight, but it's still good entertainment, we come to watch on all what he says and intentions. I have this feeling that Ryan doesn't want to build his reputation in winning a lot of titles but more on making fun of everyone and making money at the same sounds more like Jake Paul's antics. I hope to see both of these two clowns in the ring it's going to be a battle of thrash talks and trolling, but Jake Paul needs to beat Tyson first. King Ry's reputation does not depend on championships. His reputation depends on boxing against the best boxers in the world very much similar to the undefeated Devin Haney who was hyped to be in the pound for pound rankings. Haney was also hyped to be the next Floyd Mayweather but Ryan defeated him hehehehehe. It would also be very headshaking to compare King Ry to Jake Paul. King Ry wants real legacy by fighting the best boxers, Jake Paul only likes to scam people very much similar to ICO scammers who sell hype and dump on their own followers. |
