Another crazy moment that made fighters decide on short notice. The sad part is that it's the most awaited since the Jon Jones fight, the main event that was canceled. People book all because of this man.

Dana likes these short-notice fights already and it's kinda giving surprises to the bettors when you are to see 2 weeks' notice and unsure what to expect about the health of the fighters.

Gotta choose Pavlovich.
It does seem to be a common occurrence as of late with the last fights of the year.
It seemed to work in UFC's favor because many said they of rather see both co-main and the main event the way they happened.

For Pavlovich you can't sleep on Aspinall as he won the last main event in dominating fashion.

Not having UFC this week is alright since we still have a former UFC fighter still fighting in a different arena.
Looks like he is doing good in his new sport.

Truth @YuginKadoya @notblox1
You got to be careful with putting anything in these sort of activities on the blockchain as you could be scammed quite easily as was mentioned with the ICO age we were in several years ago now they are pretty much non-existent in the cryptocurrency space.
That is why there has been a service created to keep individuals from getting scammed by NFTs called pocket universe.

With this race in Mexico the qualifying is just about finished with so many penalties being given out during Q1&Q2, we don't know what the starting grid will look like because it was mentioned they will investigated and decided after the session has ended.

Verstappen didn't make it to pole position and Leclerc took it with Sainz being second.

Something to note is neither Ferrari drivers had any penalties during any of their qualifying sessions.

[HT] Bayern Munich 0 - 0 Darmstadt

We saw a very chaotic match here, in the first half alone there were 3 red cards (1 from Bayern Munich and 2 from Darmstadt), but I was quite amazed at how Darmstadt's defensive performance was able to hold Bayern Munich to a draw even though they lost 2 of their players. In the second half I bet on Bayern Munich because I saw a big opportunity there, what about you guys? Do you think that the current results will end until the match is over? Or are we going to see more than 3 goals here?
Bayern Munich were supposed to beat Darmstadt in the first half without much stress but maybe due to the red card, it destroyed their game plan and they had to restrategise, currently they're suprìsenly leading with 7 goals in the 2nd half and one of Musiala, Sane or Kane might score a hat-trick before the game ends cause they've all scored a brace and only muller scored 1 goal.

 This week is full of suprises, Stuttgart that's been performing very well and has refused to drop points for a while, got beaten 0-2 in the first half,they managed to score 1 goal when the second half kicked off but are currently losing 2-3 to Hoffenheim, well Hoffenheim are in a good form but based on Stuttgart's position in the standings coupled with the fact that they're playing at home I expected them to win or draw the game, that's one thing with most the teams, they'll do well at the beginning of the season but on the long run inconsistency becomes a problem for them  they're playing at home I expected them to win or draw the game, that's one thing with most the teams, they'll do well at the beginning of the season but on the long run inconsistency becomes a problem for them.
Started watching their match at the 88th minute after they just got their 8th goal. This is what Bayern Munich needed lately to boost their morale a bit.
Kane did get his hat trick after looking at the game statistics he has 3 goals. SO many red cards with both teams receiving one and Darmstadt with sitting on their second.
Still has some time left for them to get a 9th and Sane might get one too so to complete his hat trick.

and regarding Real Madrid, they will play away against Barcelona, even though I am a Madrid fan, I doubt that my favorite team can win against Barcelona because home advantage always provides a big opportunity, but I still hope that Madrid will win in the upcoming match.
I think it's just me, but I'm also like you. Although Real Madrid have differences and good strengths, Barcelona are the same and I think they are better. Barcelona are very good in possession and Real Madrid always struggle to overcome that.
But I have hope Real Madrid can at least go home with a point. If they lose, they will drop down the rankings and they will find it even more difficult to compete with Barcelona.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are good performing teams in laliga, this game is unpredictable but Barcelona have home advantage that can make them to win the game.  Barcelona and Real Madrid game will be one of the most interesting game this season because this two teams are rivals to each other,  from the performance of Barcelona and Real Madrid the game may likely end up with a draw because the two teams both have quality squad to challenge each other.
Just started watching this classic match between these two teams so it should be a good one even with Lewandowski starting on the bench.
They showed the crowd and believe it or not, The Rolling Stones are in the sands to watch this match!
So it has that celebrity status already.

Mike Tyson was there on one end of the confernece table while Tyson Fury's father was at the other end. They were shooting encouragement towards their fighters back and forth.
Not a bad press conference to watch for under 2 and 1/2 hours actually.
Embarrassing behavior from Fury's dad even Fury wasn't having it. Lol

This will be a fight for the iron fist, but Tyson Fury is more experienced and faster than Francis and, in my opinion, has a better chance of winning. I've been seeing Francis train for a few days now, and he's still learning the basics. His blows are slow, but he has one of the deadliest punch force. Fury believes in his strength and stamina, while Francis believes in his power hit. It's going to be a bloodbath.
Yeah, his father was more into having this fight than Tyson Fury was. He wants to fight Iron Mike afterwards.
Got my freebet for the promotion and placed it on over 4.5 rounds since it seems to be the safest bet to make. The odds for Nngannou @8.20x when I placed my bet seemed to be way to high so didn't take the risk on a major upset.
Funny how Tyson called Francis fat. His response back was the best though "Atleast you were fat and knocked people out!".
Classic Francis!

There were some mention from S1mple about a week ago regarding why he was absent for IEM in Sydney and many had already put two and two together.
From the following video you can hear his thoughts about how the team is heading with it's players and also arguing about another person as he refers to as kid for his distaste with being part of the team.

Now that we are clear with the Juicy UFC 294 I think we are ready for a new event with the MMA for sure and this is on this upcoming Friday
Sorry but I dont know who this guys are and this week I am watching only Fury vs Ngannou boxing fight.
From another interesting news Jake Paul has agreed to fight against Nate Diaz in PFL, and Diaz has good chances with MMA rules.
I dont know exact date but I want to see that fight.
This is one many would like to see since their last fight right at the end Nate tried to pull a guillotine on him.
I would imagine many would like to see what would happen to Paul if they didn't have those boxing gloves on.
It is only fitting to happen since Diaz agreed to fight on his terms and now Paul would be fighting on his.

PFL is the only way to go with this one since Nate retired from the UFC and Jake wants nothing to do with Dana and his company even though his brother Logan is performing in the WWE which is technically the same company as the UFC now due to the merger.

BIG and good news for me and all the Argentines!!!

FRANCO COLAPINTO reach F2, so we are one step closer to have again a F1 driver, i hope he can reach the F1 in the coming years, we are so many years without a driver in the top category.

Its not the best or bigger team, but i hope he can compete. HE is also a William academy driver.
That is some big news for all the Argentinian fans of the F1 sport since F2 is one step closer to the big stage.
Good luck to him as it is good to see the next generation up and coming who will be replacing the aging ones currently in the F1 campaign.

More NFTs? I thought that was over already Smiley

Yup! I never thought that they are still some that were into these NFTs that I had dropped most of my NFTs that were free because they were now useless, maybe I haven't opened my wallet since then, but yeah I think I would look my NFT if they eventually have a value now,

I think even the biggest and most expensive nfts proved that they were pointlessly high because only a few people would buy them and these were all guys who had a lot of money or gambled to try flip. Didn't work anymore:) So F1 seems like one of the last few places to advertise since rich guys are there and looking for status symbols.
Was thinking the exact same thing when I first saw his response to the NFT imagery.
They are highly overvalued for what they are due to the fact the ones we see give no utility holding them except for whatever the floor the ones who held them since the very start proposes they be.
For example, Bored Ape Yacht club.
Their decline begin with this lawsuit from the auction house Sotheby back in August.

"Sotheby's representations that the undisclosed buyer was a 'traditional' collector had misleadingly created the impression that the market for BAYC NFTs had crossed over to a mainstream audience," the lawsuit claimed. Lawsuit plaintiffs say that harmed investors bought the NFTs "with a reasonable expectation of profit from owning them."
Sotheby's sold a lot of 101 Bored Ape NFTs for $24.4 million at its "Ape In!" auction in September 2021, well above the pre-auction estimates of $12 million to $18 million. That's an average price of over $241,000, but Bored Ape NFTs now sell for a floor price of about $50,000 worth of ether cryptocrurrency, according to CG data accessed today.
Investors previously sued Bored Ape creator Yuga Labs, four company executives, and various celebrity promoters including Paris Hilton, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevin Hart, Snoop Dogg, Serena Williams, Madonna, Jimmy Fallon, Steph Curry, and Justin Bieber. The original class-action was filed in December 2022, and Sotheby's was added as a defendant in an amended complaint submitted on August 4."

This caused a ripple effect in the entire NFT space and had since never recovered.

Another split on the early bets and won some thanks to the New Orleans Pelicans defeating the Memphis Grizzlies. 2 of 3. Not bad.
Like I said, it's a mismatch. Pelicans should definitely win that game without any problem but the Grizzlies somehow gave them some trouble even when Zion is playing and most of their stars. Anyway, a win is still a win.
So what's left is the Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks who have not played the regular season just yet. Tomorrow they will be matched against each other.
But here is the problem.
Sixers' James Harden returns to practice, but won't travel with team for NBA season opener vs. Bucks
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/sixers-james-harden-returns-to-practice-but-wont-travel-with-team-for-nba-season-opener-vs-bucks/
Take note of that before placing your bets for tomorrow guys because this will affect the game big time. The Bucks might get the W in their home without much resistance if James Harden keeps on resisting.  Cheesy
There was some news on the Harden saga while I was watching my bets dissolve with the Wembanyama double-double and to score over 20+ points go bad early on since he was riding 4 fouls at the start of the second half of last nights game against Luka and the Mavericks.
There was some talk on 76ers but with their other superstar player Joel Embiid looking towards New York to become a Knick's player:

I'll try to go light for today's MNF as i'm not too confident with the Niners covering comfortably, and like you've mentioned, they have a few players out. Even though the Vikings always lose by a single possession, they might get exposed if the Niners pull ahead with their defense consistently getting stops or turnovers. I was debating if I should go for the over, but after what happened yesterday i'm starting to imagine it'll go under if both offenses can't get a quick score in the first quarter.

Edit: The Game isn't over, but the spread is dead now that the Vikings are the ones in control of the game and still in the lead by two possessions.
You were right about the under as both offenses struggled to score touchdowns. The Vikings did look stronger at the start but 49ers started getting in their red zone but just couldn't punch it into the back to score. They had to settle for field goals.
I went for the over on this match and got sorely beaten seeing San Francisco's performance which was far from stellar compared to their earlier matches at the start of the season.

Since it is Thursday we have TNF later on today with another struggling offense in the Buffalo Bills going head to head with a rather impressive Tampa bay Buccaneers who beat those Minnesota Vikings back in September.

-snip
The others are doubting as well, and a few are taking a shot at AC Milan's odds as they think it's a bit high after PSG got rolled last time. I'm only hoping for the best since PSG is playing at home and Mbappe made me a bit of money during the international break. To me, it's one of those matches where they have to win if they plan on moving on to the knockout phase.
-snip
Man I should have listened to you ! It would have been 3 consecutive MOTD win if only I had picked that PSG MOTD as well. I know for sure that Milan is not going to win this game but they are pretty good in defending though thus I had a hunch it could be a draw or probably a close 1-0 win from PSG so I decided to leave that one out but gosh Mbappe ended up scoring as well

Grats on winning this mate

Too bah both team ended up with the same booking points
Told you when @ralle14 speaks about the MOTD to always listen!
He seems to avoid the losers and select the winners in some magical unicorn way.
It is uncanny really.
I took both specials with PSG with Mbappe scoring and the AC Milan one with Giroud scoring soley because I had them to win the match on the UCL pool. So didn't lose anything really.

In today's MOTD we have a match in the Europa league with Brighton & Hove Albion taking on Ajax Amsterdam:

https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

Seen some news while on X/Twitter the other day that Ajax just fired their coach Alfred Schreuder.
https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/37635866/ajax-sack-schreuder-winless-run-continues

So maybe this isn't the best time to backing them due to them going through a restructuring of their team management.

I follow several Telegram channels that provide news that ETFs may not be approved next year. Even through social media I read the list of Bitcoin ETF applications missing from the submission queue list. I don't know if this is true, nor have I found the official news. Maybe friends here understand more about this matter. I also discussed this issue in the local forum, maybe this is FUD.

MMCrypto is the worst source for any information.
They had it removed from your linked tweets on October 24th the BlackRock ETF, but have since added it back.
https://blockworks.co/news/blackrock-ibtc-dtcc-etf

They had it listed back in August but nobody noticed until the beginning of October. We all know why they had removed BlackRocks application: due to the commotion it has caused the price to spike. And they don't want that to happen so soon.

CryptoRUs reported on this in his last livestream about 9 hours ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54Jk71NHAXE

I would rather listen to what George from CryptoRUs has to say rather than the guy on MMCrypto which looks to on something or has had way to much coffee right before his own livestreams. He has a wildin' look in his eyes everytime I see those video thumbnails on youtube.

You can't go by what these people who are relying solely on big institutional investors money to come in and save the day for bitcoin to surge back to $68,000. Just look at Cathy Wood, CEO of Ark Invest for example.
She is saying "bitcoin to $1,000,000!" just a week ago but now she sold when it hit $35,000 yesterday.

Gratz on winning this mate !
Congrats to you as well.

We got a rare double MOTD for the CL matches later today and the more promising one is probably the PSG MOTD since they picked Mbappe for the ATGS. The Newcastle MOTD is the second-best after PSG since Isak only has one assist. The good part for these two MOTDs is they're both playing at home, so the ATGS should have a better chance of hitting but i'll take the best MOTD when there's only a little difference in terms of odds.


They are quite rare but more variation the better for the bettors I always say!

Hi Arriemoller.
lets hope for sideways 33-34k for a while maybe til Nov 28th.
numbers are nice for the mine.
I am having trouble with the idea that BTC will jump up 20% and then just go sideways.. but sure, anything can happen, but seems like a lower end of probabilities kind of scenario.
My euphoric phase is growing again. It is wonderful to have stumbled upon Bitcoin so many years ago and read up on it, learning the hard way of buying high at $30 and maxing the credit card out to do it, spending ages cursing myself but hodling anyway. Today life is not bad my friends.
Wow... you bought at $30 right before it dropped to $2 and then took a while to get back above $30 again.. and so yeah, those were early days...
Yet nobody starting talking about them breaking even when the price was $31,000. Only when the price rose to $33,500 quite rapidly. I guess the mainstream cryptomedia was late to the party as they mostly are.
JJG WO bot has AI skills to rival even the best ChatGPT variant. Completely forgot about Fillippone's MicroStrategy's thread. Thanks for the linkage!
Cathy Wood sold (even if it was GBTC shares) when it was $34,500 so everybody was seeing it as a smart move. But the push to $35k is looking more plausible now.

You gotta take the word of Sterling seriously, he knows how to act pretty well. And I could understand Basharat is a monster if in Henry's mind he wouldn't survive 3 rounds he better gives his best act.

Walker vs Ankalaev will have a rematch soon. The knee-to-a-grounded fighter rule should have been abolished by now because it's not going to end well every time as it is always the start of the drama. Walker looks okay and he even wants to fight again, it was said the doc stopped the fight because Walker didn't answer his question.
This was a very controversial call to the second fight made by the very same fight doctor who made the same conclusion about the Basharat fight.
Here is the video of Johnny Walker explaining what happened and what he heard from the doctor at that pivotal moment which ended the fight being a no contest. This was certainly the wrong call to make as english is not the first language of Walker nor the doctor according to him as he had a heavy accent. So of course it would be hard for him to understand exactly what he was asking him in a loud arena.

Johnny Walker Explains Controversial UFC 294 No-Contest: 'I Was Losing My Mind' | The MMA Hour
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqaodnopQ2E

Aljo won the title this way from Petr Yan and look where he is now after this rule ruined his career in the UFC.
Why wasn't he given 5 minutes since taking an illegal blow under the belt would but not to the head?
It certainly doesn't make any sense whatsoever and so you are correct.

That's true also maybe Walker was distracted by the noise and yup English isn't also his first language. I wouldn't say he is wrong when he answered he is in the desert though. But in times like that yet he is joking, the doctor will interpret it like he already is in a delirious state.

He is right when he says that whenever in a fight, everything you throw at your opponent is intentional. So he does have the right to complain but a NC despite the obvious knee, should also be a disqualification if Dana wants to make it right.  
In the short time they fight, one could say Walker did pretty well, playing possum is so Johny and it triggers Ankalaev like he wants Johny to pay for playing that way.
You know that Walker has suffered from schizopherenia episodes in the past don't you?
He has talked about this during an interview before but has been treating it with mental exercises and medication.
So giving such as answer in a serious time like that is either unprofessional or a bout of his illness taking over since he just took a shot to the face causing him to see stars.
It is a strange one to call but hopefully what Dana said to him with the words "We will make it right" means he gets paid the way he deserves too. Since having mentioned he is in the red for this fight. Flying his whole team & family members there and the costs of this training camp for the past couple of months costs alot of money to do.
So if he doesn't get something out of his he just might be working at the local gas station to make ends meet.
So drinking bottles of apple juice with golden flakes in them doesn't seem to have been a smart thing to do while in Abu Dhabi when he looks back at it now after the fight's result.

A good opportunity to maximize our rewards during the Ngannou versus Fury fight. It's hyped so join it.
Good luck.
why are they using this image, it doesn't look like it's Fury up there. he certainly looks like a komodo dragon with a bloated tummy. bookmakers already show how one-sided this fight can be even in the images they use.
8.20 for Ngannou's odd, seem a good time to pray for an upset.  Grin
obviously, it's just a slim shot but maybe a lucky haymaker reaches Fury's face and results in the most upsetting way. its gonna be the most embarrassing day for the boxing champ.
Maybe they want him to look younger with the clean shaven head and face.
Francis Ngannou was on MMAFightingonSBN yesterday and Ariel asked him alot of questions about this fight inwhich he wouldn't have told anybody else since he has been on the show many times before and they are somewhat friends from his MMA time in the UFC.

For that interview with Ngannou you can skip to the 1:30 hour mark of the video:

Also the NBA is about to kick-off with the first game of the night in the next 40 minutes and just watching the tip-off show on TNT.
The Championship ring ceremony for last season's champs are going to be shown ahead of the Denver Nuggets game.
It does get the fans of the NBA hyped up from such a long wait for this season to finally begin.
Here are the markets for the two games tonight:
