1  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: Today at 07:55:52 AM
If Khabib ever wants to return to MMA, he will get back as a coach. I think that extra weight he has got now is hereditary. His father wasnt slim either. And the body, after years of training and cutting, I think it is relaxing and protesting to get back in shape Cheesy I dont know how much you get media information about Khabibs life on your language or in English for example. But among Russian speaking we have tons about him. His popularity is on such huge level, that even if all of his funds are frozen, for many it will be an honour to help or support him. Besides, he is great relationships with sheikhs. He can be someone's friendly coach, so he and several next of his family generations will be provided with everything.

Similar to these boxing events that were arranged and managed in Saudi Arabia with very large purses from the Saudi prince, I reckon this would certainly be very good for Khabib vs. Conor if the sheiks will also support a MMA event that is not under the organization of uncle Dana. Also, Khabib is not very fat if you compare his body to his father. He is not a round pound. I am quite certain Khabib can fight in welterweight and he will be comfortable in this weight division. It will also be the same for Conor.



Again discussing possible McGregor fight Cheesy I highly believe that he will never ever return to a professional fighting sport. I have never seen anyone return from a leg injury the same as he was before, and perform on high level. If it isnt joints, but a bone crack, forget about sport. Biggest example - Anderson Silva. After that leg break, he has retired. As to Conor. Why would he even continue fighting. He has got money, fame, business, family. If he wants to fight that much, pay sparring partners and beat them. No need to cut weight and push yourself hard Cheesy If there some fights in his contract, I think he is able to buy out himself from UFC Cheesy

However, if the opponent is Khabib, I am quite very much certain if Conor had a broken leg, he will use this and kick Khabib. Conor has a different type of hatefulness against Khabib. He will accept the fight.

News update.

It appears that negotiations for Loma vs. the scammer Tank Davis has begin! This is confirmed by Bob Arum. This is also quite shocking because it appears uncle Bob is changing his tactics on creating fights. Did he not like creating superfights before? I might be mistaken, however, I reckon he will only do this rarely. Has he learned something after Bud Crawford left Top Rank?

In any case, I wish that Loma will not agree to Tanks's rehydration clauses.



Top Rank promoter Bob Arum states the Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis vs. Vasily Lomachenko lightweight unification fight is in the works for November in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand or T-Mobile Arena.

Arum says Carl Moretti of Top Rank is negotiating with Luis Decubas to make the Tank vs. Lomachenko fight happen in November in Las Vegas, provided they can hammer out a deal.

But I understand that people have different political views, and if you're someone who supports the things mentioned above plus also a pro-Bitcoin person, it makes sense to vote for Trump.

However, I am certain that the supporters of Biden who are also cryptoholders in America should not be selfish similar to what @NotATether has suggested. They might be taking a risk on losing profit on their cryptocoins and tokens but everyone can be quite certain that the American economy will be much better under Biden than under Trump.

Biden will be bad for the cryptospace, good for the country. Do not think only of yourselves and your collection of coins and tokens.

On committing the largest deportation in history, this might be because these illegal migrants are beginning to be a problem for the country. The government is in a difficult situation because the migrants do not pay taxes needed to spend on these migrants. The taxpayers are paying for everything.

Also, there is a speculation that the Biden administration allowed many migrants to enter the American border because they will use them for the election heheheh.



Democrats have scheme to register illegal immigrants to vote

That became clear Monday when the White House threatened to veto legislation intended to close a loophole allowing illegal aliens to register to vote. The loophole was created by what is known as the motor voter law, which forced states to allow mail-in voter registration in 1993.

All one has to do is check a box that says “Are you a citizen of the United States of America?” on a federal form to be signed up. Though the form asks for more information, it’s optional.

While noncitizen voting is illegal, there’s no way to know when it happens.

@pooya87. This is certainly because the team of Joe Biden knows that they are leading in the polls on the presidential candidacy as a Democrat. No one can replace him that will improve the Democrats' rating in the polls. However, Trump can be victorious against Biden. According to the latest news Elon Musk has donated a sizable amount to America PAC. This is a super PAC working to help Trump to become the next president.



Billionaire Elon Musk, who has been ramping up criticism of U.S. President Joe Biden, has donated to a political group working to elect rival presidential candidate Donald Trump, Bloomberg reported on Friday, citing sources.

The report did not indicate how much Musk donated but added it was "a sizable amount" given to a group called America PAC.

Bloomberg reported that the PAC - a group that can receive unlimited contributions for political activity - is next required to disclose its list of donors on July 15.

@cabron. This is making it appear that you do not follow this sport very much closely. Manon Fiorot has fought Erin Blanchfield and she has become no.2 in her division's ranking after Alexa Grasso who is the champion and Valentina Shevchenko who is no.1. I am quite certain that Fiorot will be given the next chance to fight for her division's championship after Grasso vs. Shevchenko trilogy.
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Akhmadaliev ordered by the WBA no later than September 25 on: July 12, 2024, 04:53:43 AM
^^ So meaning to say, that they will have to pay Akhmadaliev step aside money so that Inoue won't fight him and instead faces TJ Doheny? What will happen to Akhmadaliev then? Will he have to wait again before he can get a crack at Inoue?

Just weird though that it seems this fight is what boxing fans are looking for and it could have been lock in already and good to see former champion Akhmadaliev to test Inoue. For sure they are not afraid of him, but most likely this is due to boxing politics again, too bad for Akhmadaliev though.

Also on Inoue's choosing to fight TJ Doheny next, what does this imply for Inoue and the WBA's order of a mandatory defense against Akhmadaliev? It appears that the WBA super bantamweight championship will be removed from Inoue's waist after his fight vs. Doheny.

If Inoue knows that the WBA championship will be removed from him, I speculate that he has decided already to move to the next division on featherweight where he can challenge the champions there including Brandon Figueroa.
7  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for July on: July 12, 2024, 02:35:04 AM
@pooya87. Agreed! However on your big rally argument, I am beginning to be bearish. This might not occur without a very good cause. The ETF and the halving have occured already. There was also Larry Fink who went to different news outlets to talk about bitcoin. If the spot ETF for Ethereum cannot pump in new bullishness for the whole cryptospace, it would be headshaking to expect bitcoin to pump to $60k and move over this. It also appears that there will be much rejections on this trendline.

I don't like Joe Biden's "AI regulation" draft which wants to place restrictions on compute hardware and platforms (and I obviously don't like the anti-crypto policies), but the average American is going to suffer under a second Trump term.

So now's not the time to be selfish.


Agreed, now is certainly not the time to be selfish for Americans. They should think of their country and vote for Biden. It is also time to accept reality that because of the government's anticrypto crackdowns and regulations, the cryptospace might presently not be for the American people if they do not feel the necessity to fight for this right. This is okay for the people who are not under the jurisdiction of America because we can certainly continue to enjoy the cryptospace and gamble on cryptocoins and tokens heheheh.

Are these pictures from similar minutes and seconds during the fight? If they are from the same time, I reckon picture on the bottom shows that it is on the beltline because it is the best angle from where everyone can see that the boxing gloves of Daniel Dubios has touched the midsection of Usyk.

Similar to what I have mentioned before, this appears to have given Usyk a big profusion of low bowel movement. It would be headshaking if there was something brown that appeared on the back of his shortpants hehehe.

Lol did you watch it yet?  Cheesy Cheesy  So hilarious.  

Yeah, the interview part was surprisingly calm and everyone was so nice and composed... and then the staredown happened  Grin



Did you guys hear the news about Khabib fleeing Russia and getting his accounts frozen + business raided over the alleged $3 millon that he owed to Russian tax man?

Damn, if he doesn't have a proper amount stashed in some safe place, who knows, he might be forced to come back from retirement and fight at least one more time.

He will not only be forced to come back from retirement. Who is the opponent for him who would give him a very big purse? I am quite certain everyone know this Irish MMA fighter who like to trashtalk in person and in social media heheheheh.

This will be the perfect setting for Khabib. He cannot anymore make the weight on lightweight because he is very fat. I reckon the situation is similar for Conor because he is lazy. They can fight on welterweight for the bad motherfucker belt hehehehehe.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: July 11, 2024, 03:29:05 AM
It appears that this is another underestimation by the sportsbooks hehehe. If everyone can remember Rose's fight vs. Carla Esparza, Rose was not going near Carla because Rose was very much scared of Carla's takedowns. I predict that this will be a similar fight where Rose will avoid Tracy for the whole fight and the judges will consider this an advantage for Tracy in the score. The winner will be Tracy and this will be with a split decision. She is also a sexy fighting kitten hehehehehehe.



It's what they said so. Maybe Rose has to keep this fight standing then. She has to invoke his upset fighting skill she has been defeating top fighters in the rank in the most unexpected way, especially Zhang.

It's a fair speculation that the fight will end in UD. Most probably so based on Tracy's record. I wouldn't any in this card though. Dana is likely just putting up this event for the sake of there being something to watch.

What is this upset you are talking about for this fight? Thug Rose is the favorite to get the victory for this heheehe. If there is an upset skill that should be used, it should be from the sexy Tracy hehehe.

Also, all of the events that uncle Dana has organized are always there to give the fans something to watch, however, in the UFC there is also something called rankings eheheh. Uncle Dana cannot create all events to be from the high rankings, this would be headshaking.

Didn't look at the odds. Many users think Tracy will win the fight and I thought Rose was the underdog. She's always the underdog in many of her fights and Tracy has few loss than hers.

UFC does shaft some fighters even Rose didn't get the opportunity to fight the higher rank. Say Rose vs Shevchenko, which if she wins, she could get a title shot. But even Manon Fiorot isn't getting that fight either. Dana saves their fight in the country they are residing in, if the fight will be in UK for example I guess they can invite Manon Fiorot from France. But her being a champ, is something else.


I am in agreement to the bettors who predict that sexy Tracy might win, the reason is also provided. This is why I mentioned that the sportsbooks have underestimated her hehehe.

I reckon that if you know the friendship between Rose and Valentina, you would assume that one of them will never sign the contract. It is also not true that Rose never fought anyone from high rank. This is head shaking because she was strawweight champion! If you are arguing on why she was not given an opponent with high rank in flyweight, this is also headshaking because she fought Fiorot who is top 5 flyweight in the UFC heehhe.

There is much skepticism in this thread heehheh. However, it is the correct assessment. We should not be very ready to trust these candidates or these people in government. They have been there lying to their people and the few of us who begin to ask questions and become skeptical are being called conspiracy theorists as if these theories came from our own minds.

It is because the government has been lying to us repeatedly is what caused these conspiracy theories hehehehe.

In any case, it appears that some services in the cryptospace will begin to declare independence from uncle Gary and the SEC. I reckon they should declare independence from the IRS also hehehehehhh.



U.S.-based crypto intelligence platform Messari has declared independence from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In a post on social media platform X on Sunday, Messari founder and CEO Ryan Selkis wrote:

I’ve declared independence from the SEC and its corrupt Chair Gary Gensler. In the months ahead, Messari will be operationalizing a war against this illegitimate and corrupt agency.

He also shared a draft that will be “polished, improved, then sent to the SEC and Congress.” The draft explains that modern technologies have rendered the SEC’s functions redundant and that the agency now primarily serves its own interests rather than those of the public or the markets it regulates. Additionally, Messari stated, “SEC Chair Gary Gensler is not only incompetent, but corrupt.”

The firm added:

Messari will no longer engage with the SEC in any formal or informal capacities until it is reformed and its leadership changed. We now treat the SEC as a hostile adversary, competitor, and superfluous regulator.

However, will Trump keep his promises on bitcoin and the cryptospace? I am skeptical, however, we should support his decision and wish.
What promises if i may ask, as far as i know Donald Trump hasn't made any promises to the crypto industry, it is simply gullible crypto users who are taking his recent statements about crypto as an approval, when it is just a way to score cheap points in the forthcoming elections. If you think there would be a visible positive change in how the U.S treats the crypto industy if Donald Trump wins, then i can say you are wasting your time.

It was not officially a promise, however, from Trump's words in some of his speeches to the listeners makes it appears that he will support the businesses on the cryptospace and he will make it easier for the people to use their cryptocoins and cryptotokens.

There is also a thread created by @cryptomaniac_xxx about the Republicans and the mention that their platform includes ending the Democrats' crackdown on the cryptospace.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5502469.0

Trump is procrypto, but will he be procrypto if he wins the presidency? We cannot predict this heheheeh. However, many people have already declared that he is lying hehehehe.
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ POLL ] The Rematch: FURY vs USYK 21st December 2024 on: July 10, 2024, 05:25:27 AM
Fury will be desperate to win therefore could make many mistakes, that is a possibility. At the same time Usyk also will be desperate to win and he also could make errors resulting in a loss. Overall, you would expect Fury to make more mistakes and Usyk to make less however this is heavyweight boxing and when two fantastic athletes are in the ring at close proximity throwing punches at each other, anything could happen.

I disagree on Usyk also being desperate for this considering what we have witnessed during their fight. On the original fight Usyk was having some difficulty during the beginning, however, there was no desperation that occurred. It was Tyson Fury who became desperate and Usyk has noticed this and has taken advantage.

But what might cause a loss for Usyk might be the underestimation on Tyson Fury because Fury might put more fat and size for this rematch and the tactic might not be to box against Usyk, it will be to find the knockout quickly during the rounds 1 to 5.

They will regret this when Bitcoin explodes to new high, after new high, after new high. What does a nation state possibly gain by selling Bitcoin. They have loads of national debt, they can print money whenever they want (they do) so why sell something that has a limited supply. It makes no sense, also the fact they are not selling OTC is very amateurish.

I very much agree!

I asked some people on social media who are from Germany and they say that Germany is a very well regulated country that gives fair rules to the cryptospace. They have blockchain companies there that operate within a jurisdiction that are not being treated similar to how uncle Gary treats companies in America.

They have also mentioned that if this will become very damaging for people who invest and who do business in the cryptospace, this might affect the votes of some candidates in their federal election on 2025.
17  Economy / Speculation / Re: In July do we go bull and pass 75k? on: July 10, 2024, 02:31:14 AM
It might be good for a small reentry to speculate on the launch of the Ethereum ETF which was delayed. However, this will certainly launch, I reckon maybe on 3rd week of July. This will not only bring bullishness on Ethereum and other altcoins. We can be very much certain that this will also bring bullishness back to bitcoin heheheh.

IMO it's going to disappoint. I'll be really surprised if it manages to break above $4k, but speculators and fans of ETH claim it can go to 6-8k by the end of the year.
Not my type of speculation though. I no longer bet on altcoins.

Quote
Also, has everyone read the news articles on Vaneck and their application for a Solana ETF? This will certainly also bring bullishness to the cryptospace including bitcoin.

An altcoin bringing bullishness to bitcoin? The last time that happen it was when Do Kwon bought bitcoin to add legitimacy to his shitcoin.


Why do you not reckon that bullishness for Ethereum and Solana will not bring bullishness to the whole cryptospace including bitcoin? It is not very much similar before 2017 where anyone who wants to buy an altcoin will need go buy bitcoin first because trading pairs with bitcoin were the most liquid. Presently it is stablecoins trading pairs that are the most liquid in the cryptospace. No need anymore to go through bitcoin.

On the speculation on where Ethereum will be after all ETF inflows not only beginning inflows, my prediction will be $10k on 2025. I am quite certain this bullishness will also be brought on bitcoin.

If you are from Germany and you want your voices to be heard on stopping the dump on bitcoin, I reckon this might be a good chance for the bitcoin community in Germany to have a meeting and begin a campaign against politicians who are anticrypto. Do not vote for these people, they do not care for the cryptospace and the price of our cryptocoins heheheheh. Vote for the politicians who will pump our coins!

The poll in this thread is in danger of becoming excessively one-sided. It currently stands at Fury:5 and Usyk:12

By the time the fight takes place and the poll is locked, I think the gap could get even bigger for Usyk to win but if I had pick a winner I would choose Fury because he would be more desperate to win and prove a point whereas Usyk already beat him and made the very same point.

However, it can be argued that Tyson Fury's desperation might cause him to become more careless in the fight. I voted for Fury before but it appears that compared to Usyk, he was very much overestimated because for this, size does not matter. Usyk is a more intelligent boxer and to win against him, the Tyson Fury should fight more intelligently. He certainly cannot do this if he is desperate. Also, desperation does not give a boxer more skill or strength. This only gives more weakness, I reckon.
