UFC Vegas 89 is in full gear with media day yesterday showing what the main event fighters are thinking ahead of their bouts.
At first I was going to side with Namajunas but then just as you explained, this would only her second fight at this weighclass. And Fiorot seemed to dominate her during this entire bout except for near the ending of the fight.
So I will be going with Ribas on this one. She has the experience fighting at this weight.
We will see how it goes at the weigh-ins tomorrow.

It has been a rather interesting past few months when the spot ETF was approved for bitcoin.
We had seen it reach all time highs of over $73,337 on some exchanges then plumet down to $63,600 from what we just seen it do yesterday.

This is a good article to see what the bitcoin halving will do with these inflows and outflows and how it will affect the price in the coming month when it actually does occur:

Was waiting for the promotion to drop since the tournament started so thanks for the early notification on it's release!

Good they outlined the minimum amount being $100usdt so to get the reward.
Also to highlight: Higher deposit - higher reward!

So this is clear to all the promotion participants.

Imperial are playing Gamerlegion in a few hours to keep their run into PGL Majors at Copenhagen.

They lost yesterday against Ecstatic 2-1 but hopefully can rebound today against GL and stay in the top of these opening stage matches.

First day of the tournament matchups were played yesterday and we have even more today.
The sixteenth and tenth seeded teams play during the First Four part of the tournament.

Then we have the first round starting tomorrow with the higher seeded teams playing.
Hope we will have the markets available for those games as for now there are the invitationals.

Nice promo video released by UFC on their official youtube channel earlier in the week for this UFC Vegas 89 event:
UFC Vegas 89: Ribas vs Namajunas - March 23 | Fight Promo

Actually looking forward to this fight with Rose vs Amanda since they both have similar fighting styles and body types. Long and lanky which make for some good strikes.

Don't think they have released who would be racing for Ferrari yet.
As with what happened to him, it wasn't released until the day of qualifying. I remember that cause there was a blank spot on the markets without Sainz name there ahead of the Q1 race for a couple of hours.

I would suspect they will have the rookie continue on until Carlos fully recovers. Why put stress on him since with the sitting in the car and the vibrations of the track while in the cockpit of the F1 car could cause those stiches to reopen.

Wish for a different driver to get pole position this week and if it is anybody then it is Leclerc.
Looking for somebody to step up so Verstappen odds for the next race gets lower than 1.50x again.
So I can bet on him. But not for this one since 1.18x is still to low of an odd to place any amount on.

Looks like we will be back having a race on Sunday being on March the 24th, even if it is in Australia.

There is a higher chance of having rain. The previous two were 7% while there is a 24% chance according to some gp blogs for this one. So we might have a soggy one for this Australian GP.

The top seeds usually do advance to the next round of the bracket of their matchups.
Just looked at the odds from where they are now available and Huskies are 1.01x odds while their opponents the Hatters are 16.00x and don't see those odds changing much if any before they start their run this Friday 22nd.

Purdue are No.1 on their end of the division as are UConn on theirs. So don't expect either of them to get knockout early.

But then again, that's why they call it March Madness as anything can happen.

Remember last year I placed a bet on one of the top seeded team and they got knocked out by a sixteenth seed.
But this was in the later rounds.

As with anything to do with the altcoin markets only the early investors reap the highest amount in profits.
So if you got in when they started, assuming the tokens were worth a tenth of a penny.
Then you made alot of profit so far.
Even if one token is worth around half a penny each now.

But you invested $5000 according to the OP. Thirty satoshis almost a year and a half ago were worth alot less than they are now.
So at what price per token did you start to invest?

Those are usually throw it as hard as they can type shots without much control.
This player in the clip took their shot like he was shooting it from his own three not from the opposite end of the court and opponent's three zone.

That is what this tournament brings with it for March!

Here is the bracket for the NCAA March Madness tournament starting tonight in Ohio:

UConn & Purdue are the first seeded teams this year so expect to see them go far!

Imperial Esports are doing quite well this tournament in the opening stage.
They beat ENCE convincingly then beat Apeks.
These are just BO1 maps so far but the RMR13 seems to suit their teams fast pace better.

So they are on a roll starting this tour in the PGL Majors.

Was watching some of the open stage qualifiers from Copenhagen earlier today and seen Apeks playing. They are good and will be facing Imperial Esports tomorrow bright and early:

Heroic did beat Imperial by a close margin, so yeah the Sportsbet.io team are improving and just hope they can make it far in this Major once it gets started as these were the opening stage matches.

Yes March Madness starts on the 19th of March so got to get those brackets in stat!

To get those who are not familiar of the mAdNeSs check out this video of the three-pointer this player made late last week in the Big 12 tournament:

He made a shot from the other teams three point line!

That is just how crazy this NCAAB season can be this month going into the next.

Other than the three fighters missing weight it turned out not to be that bad.
The major upset was Ovince St. Preux winning his match as he was one of the oldest fighters going against an up and comer of the UFC in Kennedy Nzechukwu who was unbelievably 1.15x odds to win.
But experience seemed to be on St. Preux's side for this bout. He took all of Nzechukwu's heavy blows and then some. Well deserved win of the night for the big underdog!

The most controversial fights of the night was certainly Bryan Battle vs Ange Loosa.
After the eyepoke Ange said he couldn't see only after less than a minute. The referee didn't even mention to him he had a full 5 minutes to recover so to see if he can continue on with the fight.
But it was called off since he said he can't see out of that eye.
Battle was winning the match and was obviously very upset after this result because he said Loosa took the chickens way out knowing he was losing the fight.
So it was declared a no contest, so no bonus for Battle either. That is what made him mad the most since he spent so much time in training just to have this NC and on his record due to someone not taking the full amount of time to recover.

Tybura had this match as soon as he was able to get Tuivasa off his feet.
Tai has a terrible ground game and is probably going to get choked out if he is taken down.
As was the case with how this main event went.
So good for Marcin Tybura on winning and surviving those brutal elbows at the very beginning.

They are in sixth place in the constructor's championship so far. They are doing something.
But agreed with you if they want to welcome a rookie driver to their team they need to improve their cars.
So to not continue the trend on to him. Since he would be like a clean slate and not want to tarnish any aspirations they would want to bestow upon him in a problematic machine.
Maybe the recent firings from Haas will change things up for the better as the season progresses.

What is wrong with Medvedev?
Thought he played alot better than the way he is looking now into the second set of the finals.
He is playing poorly just like he did during the match yesterday against Paul in the first set.
Carlos Alcaraz is looking like he will take this Indian Wells final the way he has been playing with those amazing shots. Just like his match against Sinner, his form is 100% and showing how good those aerobatic skills of his really are.
Can't see this one going into another tie breaker as with the first set. Carlos is currently dominating Daniil with being up 4-1 in the second set.

What a couple of matches to watch over the weekend.
First with Coventry beating Wolves that was the shocker to witness because Wolverhampton were leading in regular time and then concede both goals in injury time.

Now today seeing Liverpool taking the lead into extended time I thought it was sealed for the victory.
But then Diallo scoring both goals separated by a minute each was very unexpected to take Man Utd with the win.
These type of matches if you had any skin in the games, you would be sweating pools watching.

Solana memecoins have surpassed everyones expectations. It will make them the alternative way to deal with these type of coins since the only way had been to use the ethereum network.
But as many had experienced the high gas fees were making them un-usable.
Hundreds of dollars to send an altcoin with no utility such as a dog inspired coin doesn't make much sense.

Think Solana has reached $190 on the news about such projects in the memecoin space having exploded such as BONK, WIF and even Shiba Inu in the past week.

So let this new blockchain infrastructure have the memecoins and NFT space instead of the Bitcoin network with those inscriptions clogging up the bitcoin blockchain.

Yes it would be also be based on how many deposits from what is stated on their promotions page shown below:

"Earn more rewards with every deposit."

But of course you need to make a worthy one such as 1mbtc and bet the entire amount of those deposits before they would consider giving the reward.
I am certain they manually review each accounts eligibility to make sure each one is legitimately rewarded.

And yes, I believe $20 would be the minimum given from what others have said about the discussion on their reward amount on this promotion so far.
