There was no controversy this time around. Franco was the clear winner. He made the adjustments he needed to make and won the decision. This would've been a great fight to bet on the underdog. People were going off the impression of the second fight where Franco did not look so good because of the eye injury but when he was in good shape in the first fight it was very close.

The BEP2 chain is already BNB's native chain. I'm not sure if the Smart Chain is a pegged token or they migrated some of the supply to that chain but it is working fine and it is already independent from Ethereum. Making BSC compatible with Ethereum was a good move because a lot of developers either moved over to BSC or are making cross-chain products that can be accessed by BSC supporters.

The WBA have demonstrated that they are the most corrupt organization in boxing. They issue more belts than anyone else and they are under threat of losing their ability to sanction fights in the United States. It would be great if some high profile fighters refused to fight for their title until they have cleaned up their act.

XFUN is like WBTC. You can lock up BTC to mint WBTC. With FUN they have locked up all the tokens held on FreeBitco.in to create XFUN on Polygon. XFUN gets burned to unlock the native token.

It would have been incredibly difficult to get away with stealing half a billion dollars. Ethereum and BSC are fully transparent blockchains and there is not enough liquidity in mixers like Tornado Cash to obfuscate such a large amount. If they hadn't been so greedy and only stole enough money to live off of for a couple of years then there would not have been such an effort to track them down. They have now returned most of the funds in order to try and avoid legal consequences.

This seems like an obvious money grab. Both guys are really old and shouldn't be fighting anymore. Silva showed he can still compete against low level washed up fighters like Chavez Jr. but against a real contender he would get hurt badly. Tito has never boxed professionally so I am not sure what to expect from him but he can't possible be that good. If the fight was on basic cable then I might tune in but since it is on PPV I have no intention of buying it.

I would still consider Ugas to be in his prime despite being 35 years old. He did good against Shawn Porter but lost a controversial decision. He is still a paper champion though and that is why he is the underdog. If he wins this fight it would be one of the biggest upsets in recent history. I think the most likely outcome is a wide decision win by Pacquiao.

I don't really get the conspiracy theories. This would've been by far Spence's biggest paycheck and he was favored to win. Any top welterweight would kill to be in a position to fight the current version of Pacquiao. We have already seen Spence wearing an eyepatch from having surgery on Wednesday morning. It was reported that this injury was discovered by the Nevada commission. I don't think they would allow themselves to be used as cover for Spence if he was ducking.

It was mentioned that the hacker's IP address and other information had been uncovered and maybe this is what scared them into returning those funds. Every centralized exchange will be monitoring their addresses and it would be difficult for them to cash out into fiat.

The hack probably destroys any confidence in Poly Network but at least investors have a chance to recover what they lost.

Roach has been promising a knockout for like the past 10 fights. Ugas has never been knocked out and Pacquiao only has 1 knockout in the past decade. I don't think Pacquiao coming off a 2 year layoff at 42 years old will be capable of getting the KO in this fight even if it is a late replacement opponent.

With cryptocurrency being decentralized it is impossible to prevent this from happening. Exchanges, block explorers and wallets could implement some safeguards but since they don't control your private keys it is ultimately up to each individual to check that they are interacting with the correct token contracts. When I add a custom token on Pancakeswap there is usually a disclaimer stating that it might be a fake token and you have to check a box to continue trading. If these measures aren't sufficient and you are still falling for scams then you probably should stay out of DeFi.

A retinal tear is a very serious injury and he had no choice but to pull out of the fight.

Depending on what happens with Pacquiao's political career this could be the final fight of his career. Ugas is an underrated fighter but I don't think he has what it takes to beat Pacquiao so I see Manny regaining his title. It would be great for him to retire as champion. The silver lining of this situation is that we will probably get to see Spence vs. Crawford finally. Spence needs a legacy defining fight and if Pacquiao retires then Crawford is the only option for him.

There will be plenty of opportunities to win 5k satoshis so I would love receiving some free golden tickets in the WOF. If I don't win the lambo then at least I didn't have to risk my BTC to earn those tickets.

If you are an adult then you have every right to determine what you want to dedicate your life to. The only thing holding you back seems to be a lack of experience but with enough persistence eventually you will find somebody who is willing to hire you.

This coin had a lot of hype on social media a few years ago. I don't know if it was just paid shills or people who were genuine supporters of this project. I haven't heard to much about it recently but the price has pumped from 5 cents to more than $3 in the past year. It probably benefited from the meme coin hype but this is not sustainable price growth and isn't something I see as a long term investment opportunity.

Burning coins doesn't necessarily guarantee that the price will go up. Sometimes it takes a while for the market to react. Whether a token has plans to burn some of their supply should not be the determining factor when investing in a new coin.

As long as they are held custodially they are only an IOU, it isn't L1 or L2 FUN until you decide to withdraw. I assume it will be similar to what Binance does and give you the choice to withdraw on whichever network you'd like. In FUN's case it would be either Ethereum or Polygon.

The best airdrops are the ones that you don't expect like Uniswap, 1inch, and Shapeshift. I got some FOX tokens from the Shapeshift airdrop and exchanged them for BTC right before the price of bitcoin was pumping. I have invested the BTC into some passive income streams instead of just spending it all.

Another airdrop I benefited from was the BSW airdrop on Betfury. It was not a large amount but it lead me to discover Biswap exchange and after investing in their BSW token I am now getting great returns from staking in their auto-compounding launchpool.

That is not a bad price considering it costs $75 to watch the fight in the US. With the huge purses the fighters are making the cost gets passed down to the customer but the downside to charging so much is that many people will just opt to stream the fight illegally.

According to Canelo's trainer, negotiations with Caleb Plant have restarted and the plan is to now fight him in November. There was not enough time for Bivol to do a training camp for a fight in September. I would still love to see that fight at 175 eventually. I think Plant gets destroyed by Canelo and then he will move up to light heavyweight and fight Bivol or Beterbiev.
