With that tweet, I don't think that a rematch with Loma would happen and with his situation with Top Rank, that scenario of not having a rematch got worst. That statement is not for winners to say, agree Loma got his numbers that night that might be the reason for his rant on tweeter which might have a downside on his career as surely he lose some fans with his performance then this statement of gratitude on tweeter.


Haney tries to follow in the footsteps of Mayweather but I think he is so far behind the Money. When Mayweather fought Castillo and won via controversial decision the former immediately give Castillo a rematch and there, he proved that the belt rightfully belonged to him.

For Haney, if he thinks he is better than Loma, even if they fought four times, he would still be victorious if indeed his skills and talent are way above Loma so why the talk?

I think that it's already a done deal that Bay Area Dragons will be back in the PBA for this Commissioner's Cup, have read in my social media feed that some PBA teams will have a game with the Dragons overseas so this is a welcome sight for those OFW's that love watching the PBA live.


I also remember that one. That's because when imports are playing, locals will be forced to elevate their games as to match their game so in the process the PBA players will also improved their skills and also the coaching strategy of the PBA will improve as they will adjust to the style of the guest teams.


I think this was already ironed out and no surprises about this issue come Commissioner's Cup.

Congrats uli sa ating mga fans ni Butler kabayan haha. Grabe, laki siguro ng panalo mo kasi tinapunan mo yong ML odds, hindi ko na naisipan pa na lagyan yong ML odds kasi naka-focus lang talaga sa "with HC", muntik pang hindi umabot yong bet ko kanina dahil nagsisimula na ang laro at di pa dumating yong deposit ko buti nalang dumating na ang score ay 3-0 at nakakuha ako ng +8.5@1.85 para sa Heat.


Mahirap i-predict to boss dahil alam naman natin na giant killer din tong Heat. Kung tutuusin ay mas malakas yong Bucks kaysa Nuggets (para sa akin lang) pero nagawan pa rin nila ng paraan para talunin yong Bucks.

I'm the 8th voter and yes, there's no other vote other than the "Beteriev by KO".

Callum Smith did survive the Canelo onslaught by this time around against the monster, I don't think he will still stand until the final bell sounds. Maybe this is some sort of a tune-up for Beterbiev before his promoter Uncle Bob finally agrees to a fight with Bivol for the unification. He may be 39 or 40 at that time so no more reason for Top Rank to still hold on to Beterbiev as he will be very old at that time.

If indeed Bivol vs Beterbiev will push through, this would be interesting as it will be dubbed as "Battle for Russia's King"  .

That's why the pound-for-pound list remains at its status quo  , even Haney knew that he was defeated on that fight (no offense to Haney fans here, just my view).

If the rematch would take more than a year to happen then it would be to Loma's disadvantage as he will be a year or two older which would not be practical because if Loma will lose people will say that it's because of Loma's age not of Haney's skill defeating him.

For me, a rematch should happen right away to settle the real score.

Yeah i saw the highlight of that fight where Vic Saludar knocked down the Puerto Rican fighter with that body shots and i thought that may Jerusalem could do more than that and maybe beat Oscar Collazo but things turned the other way around, and that's boxing, styles makes a fight.

TBH, this Oscar Collazo had some talent where i think that he could defend this belt for a long a time. Sad to say that there's not much interest in the boxing community in this weight category, i mean boxers in this division are paid way lower than their bigger counterparts.

Congrats sa ating dalawa kabayan, kahit natalo pa yong Heat sa laro kahapon sinwerte naman tayo at na-cover pa rin yong spread. Akala ko tapos na yong series, lintik na tip-in yon ni Derick White.


Ang pagkakadismaya ay part lang yang pero tingin ko ay lilipas lang yan pero di pa naman tapos tong series na ito dahil may isamg game pa pero yong nga ang hirap na nito kasi pressured na yong Heat at saka homecourt advantage pa ng Celtics tsaka ganado rin tong players ng Boston kasi pag nagkataon na manalo sila ay sila yong kauna-unahang team sa NBA na bumalik from 0-3 deficit.

Pero Heat pa rin ako rito with handicap, tandaan natin na tinalo ng Heat yong Celtics sa kanilang homecourt dalawang beses at unpredictable din tong Celtics pagdating sa kanilang homecourt games, not consistent kung baga.

This is for Filipino boxing fans in this forum.

Tomorrow, PH time, Melvin Jerusalem will make his first WBO minimumweight title against Puerto Rican Oscar Collazo.

What makes this fight interesting is that Jerusalem is placed as the underdog against Collazo, who by the way has only six fights as a pro boxer. On the interview, Jerusalem said that he is motivated by the underdog tag and I'll bite that  , so I'm placing a bet for him ML @3.51. Hope he will retain the crown and continue the streak of upsets done by Filipino boxers.

May weird scenario lang akong nakikita rito, yong pinikon ni Jimmy Butler si Al Horford na tumawag ng timeout ay hindi magandang sensales para sa akin dahil ginawa ni Butler yon na hindi pa tapos ang series, that kind of move was an act of celebration pero hindi para sila nananalo eh kaya baka ma-karma si Butler dito hehe tapos sabi nya na mananalo ang Heat sa game 6, well tingnan natin, gaya ng sabi Heat at Butler follower na ako sa ngayon kaya sa kanila pa rin pupusta pero sa totoo lang napaka-risky na bet to.

Heat +2.5 @2.03 vs Celtics

Siguro naman ay balik na si Gabe Vincent sa line-up bukas.

Same here, Garcia is the younger fighter of the two so that makes him a slight favorite i think but for the bookies, that remains to be seen.

TBH, i have not seen Lara fight live and don't know his style much but seeing the tale of tapes, no doubt for me that he will be the underdog, 40 years old is old enough in boxing unless your name is Manny Pacquaio.

Good thing that Garcia is still fighting and this time he is fighting for a championship belt which seldom happens to a fighter, i guess that's what makes of a good promoter in Al Haymon.

Lost my bet on this game, at the end of the first half the score was 46-36 in favor of the Sparks. Bet for the Sparks +1.5 @1.8x as i thought that the Aces won't catch up (actually i don't know the players on both teams) as it's a low-scoring game and a 10-point lead is hard to catch up in the WNBA but when go back to see the score, damn the Sparks lost hehe.

Bottom line, still have a lot of catching up to do to be more acquainted with the players and teams in the WNBA.

Talo tayo kanina, hindi pala pinalaro ng Heat si Gabe Vincent para siguro hindi maargabyado yong injury niya kaya hindi nila pinilit. Sobrang na-miss ng Heat yong mga tira ni Vincent sa assist na galing kay Butler at ang ganda ng ginawa nilang depensa kay Butler, naka-4 points lang ata sya sa first half at 14 points lang sa boung laro.

Nasa Heat na ang pressure ngayon, kailangan na nilang ipanalo yong laro sa game6 sa kanilang homecourt dahil pag natalo sila sa game6 ay malaki ang chance na maging totoo yong stats na pinalabas ng ESPN  .

That's the good thing about Bob Arum, he likes to give opportunities, or shall we say, he likes to prioritize his boxers with heavy hands, I mean knockout artists because that kind of talent will draw crowds, unlike defensive boxers which is boring to ordinary boxing fans.

Maybe Lopez's camp chooses Taylor because the latter is inactive for more than a year and ring rust would set in and might be a disadvantage for him because training in a gym and fighting in a ring are two different things, just hope that this will offset Teo's disadvantage to Taylor's experience.

I like the idea of the return to the PBA of the Dragons as a guest team or may they add some more teams to serve as guests because last time around, there are a lot of fans watching the game as they saw new faces and new talent live on the floor which is money for the PBA and the most important part is that PBA players will be banging with imports which in return could hone their skills to another level which is beneficial to the PBA players when they are playing in an international competition like FIBA.

Have not seen the game between SMB and NorthPort Phoenix in their pre-season game but saw the scores and found it interesting that TR7 was playing and scored 20+ points, would this be the start of his comeback bid in the PBA or still he will be riding the bench come opening season?

Mahirap isipin na manalo yong Celtics laban sa Heat apat na sunod-sunod pero posibli yan dahil hindi naman sila maging number1 sa standings kung hindi sila malakas, kontra sa Lakers, yong Celtics ang mas may chance na makagawa ng history, bouncing back from a 0-3 hole hehe pero sa Heat pa rin ako pupusta dahil tingin ko sa mga laro nila ay hindi kayang i-contain ng Celtics si Butler ng one-on-one kaya kung mananalo man ang Celtics dito ay malaki ang chance na dikit yon kaya malaking bagay na yong handicap.

Sana lang ay maglalaro si Gabe Vincent para may backup si Lowry.

Heat +7.5 @2.02 vs Celtics, tumaas na pala kanina yong odds, bakit kaya.

May verification ba ang sa iyo?

Sa akin, wala naman silang hinihingi eh, hindi ko lang alam kung selected user ako ng Gcash para magkaroon ng early access sa Gcrypto. Noong nakita ko ang Gcrypto sa aking dashboard at kini-click ko ay diretso naman siya at wala naman problema, marahil siguro ay medyo matagal na akong gumagamit ng Gcash.

Matanong lang kita if you don't mind, lampas 21 years old ka na ba? Kasi baka yon ang dahilan kaya hindi mo pa magamit yong ibang features ng Gcash kagaya ng Gcrypto at mga sportsbetting features nila.

300k-500k might be their target as seldom we will see a fight that exceeds 1M PPV buys after Manny Pacquaio and Floyd Mayweather's era.

Have read an article that Tank Davis vs Ryan Garcia exceeds 1M buys which might be true due to the fact that both are knockout artists and Garcia being a social media influencer/vlogger helps in promoting the fight, bottom line neither fighter is a boring one so many are eager to witness them face each other.

That shoving of Haney didn't help to excite the non-hardcore boxing fans to watch the fight hehe.

Aba, hindi pa natapos ang series ng Heat at Celtics mga kabayan, nanalo yong Boston kung saan sila yong dehado sa mga sportsbook, saklap naman oh pero magandang balita to sa Celtic's fans kasi kahit papaano ay nabubuhayan sila ng loob tsaka yong next game ay nasa homecourt nila which means na malaki ang chance na maging 2-3 at kung nagkataon ay mapupunta sa kanila yong momentum.

Itong Celtics yong may chance na gagawa ng kasaysayan na bumalik at nanalo sa isang series galing sa 0-3 deficit sapagkat may kakayanan naman sila at wala pang injured sa kanilang mga star players kaya interesting tong series na to pag umabot ng game6 dahil pressured na yong Heat na manalo.

Time flies so fast and before we knew it's already fight week between the two.

Lopez's last fight against Martin wasn't impressive and many thought that he lost that one (including me) so I think this Taylor fight is one hell of a climb for him and if indeed he will successful in dethroning Taylor then I guess money fights will await him in the future including Haney if ever the latter will decide to move up in weight.

I'm more inclined to a Taylor win so that Lopez will be humbled, arrogant kid with only a fluked win against Loma hehe (sorry to Lopez's fans here).

And it also proves that Haney is not in his prime yet hehe.

I doubt that he could become a crowd drawer after his recent performance, it even made him appear as if he needed more wins to become a PPV star, he's all just talking and shoving.

As for the protest, I agree that the decision would be overturned but nevertheless, it gives an impression to the concerned people that most in the boxing community don't agree with their decision.

A rematch will settle this argument but with different judges and as soon as possible.
