I laid down a bet on the Golden State Warriors last night, and I figured they’d win, but I was not expecting as 20 point blow out.  I just don’t understand why Anthony Davis wasn’t more involved on the offense end of the court. He was shooting at a 50% clip, so it’s not like he was having a super off night..but 11 points is just extremely inexcusable.

Just off night I guess and the defense put up on him. He had this kind of so-so performance against the Memphis as well, but he was able to bounce back in the next game and have a great game. So I expect him to make a come back game in their home court in game 3.

Lakers favored for Saturdays game..not sure which way to lean.

If they are favored then it's better to lean on them, again the advantage is that they are in their comfort zone at Crypto.com. And just like in Memphis series, the crowd game them energy to finished off the young Grizzlies team and AD had a great series with MVP caliber performance.

I honestly see nothing really great about Ryan Garcia. He is good but not great and I do not even think he will ever become a world champion. Or maybe he can upset a champion or win a vacant belt because he is gifted with power but most likely he is not holding a world title for long. There's a huge difference between Garcia and the prospect days of Teofimo Lopez, Adrien Broner, etc.

Let's just give him some time for now because after all, he is still young and definitely have some room to improve if he is that actually serious to be one of the greats one day. He already got the talent to bring any boxer down as long as he can touch it with somebody else's temple but that talent is not well taken care of and that's what he should do. For now, this loss he just experienced will wake him up and reflect on his actions, so that next time, he knows what to do.

Perhaps if he will just know how to protect or have good defense though, he could be an elite boxer. But he doesn't have that and the movement, still very amateurish that's why when he faces a great boxer like Gervonta Davis, he was really exposed and then others says that Ryan just quit and doesn't want to go and fight. He could have like the mentality of Amir Khan, than when he knows that he is going to lose the fight, he just take a dive and quit. So if he can fight a coach that can improved his lateral movements and cover his face and body more, then maybe he can recover from his lost.

Every 4 years, we expect bull market just because of halving. What do you think when is this chain is going to broken? Ie, halving no longer equals that bull market is coming.

Well they already said that the chain is going to be broken after our last bull run, their theory is that we will have a super cycle. However, if we won't see a new all time high this year (prior to the halving), then chain is not broken.

Which means that post-halving, we might still some good price movement and then the bubble is going to be burst in 2025, just like what we have seen in the past. Yeah, past performance is not indicative of future success, but so far the bear/bull cycle is in effect every 4 years in bitcoin market. So for me, at least at this point, bitcoin halving is the catalyst for a eventual bull run.
1084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 04, 2023, 06:44:10 PM
Everyone just saw the expectation that we've set for ourselves. Both teams are good just as expected and this is where one of them is going to end.
Well, here goes the 4-3 predictions that I'm seeing on them and we'll know it soon. But we're sure that GSW won't just let this end favoring the Lakers.
And within the next few minutes, we'll see if Celtics will take their first win or if Philly is going to take their 2nd win.

With what happened in Game 1, I think the Warriors need to win Game 2 and at least one game in Games 3 and 4. The Lakers are hyped now, and people are thinking that they will win the series and possibly end the defending champion with a 4-0 or 4-1 record. However, this is just Game 1, and anything can happen, just like what happened in the Celtics vs 76ers Game 2, where the Celtics bounced back strong and dominated the 76ers.

It's understandable because the Lakers and the Warriors have their own huge fan bases, so, whoever wins a game will literally make the team hype as they have their own supporters who will lift their names every win. But thinking about the Lakers to sweep the Warriors or at least 4-1 record? I mean, that is indeed possible but knowing how resistant the Warriors are, they will surely fight for every game even if it will come into Game 7. Saying a 4-1 record in favor of the Lakers is like underestimating the Warriors.

Well prior to the start of the series, there are predictions that Lakers are going to win in 6. Maybe it was just Lakers fanboy or a good analyst who are in the bandwagon. But in seems that the Lakers are really becoming a good playoff team now, with both Lebron and AD healthy. But 4-1? nah, I don't see that happening. Don't forget that the Warriors are the defending champion, and they still have the best shooter in the league right now.

They are down 0-2 against the inexperienced Kings but they manage to defeat them in 7. And the next game are still in the Warriors home court, so a good chance for them to tie the series and then adjust in game 3 at Crypto.com.
1085  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Halving only 1 year away on: May 04, 2023, 06:31:01 PM
so we only have 1 year left for DCA and after that our patience will pay off, because I believe 2024 will be a good year for cryptocurrency, because the price of Bitcoin and some Altcoin will definitely increase very high and create a new ATH price, therefore I want to take advantage of the current opportunity to do DCA Bitcoin and hold until the next bullrun comes, so that I will definitely get a big profit from doing DCA Bitcoin at this time.

History tells us that when bitcoin goes on a bull run, it has a trickle effect to the altcoins as well. Although there could be altcoins that can grow, even bigger returns but it's going to be too risky, so the best bet is bitcoin for the majority of us (or at least those maximalist).

As for the hash-rate and difficulty, it's been adjusting as well so I don't see a issue when we reach the halving 1 year from now. And for the miners, of course, they are businessman, so they will have to time the market as well when to offload their stash to make money.

1086  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | July 25 on: May 04, 2023, 02:23:16 AM
@inthelongrun - yeah, most likely Fulton is after the money fight with Inoue clash. He did say that he wanted to go out and move to 126 lbs and him and Brandon will make a rematch there. But fighting Inoue is too tempting to resist, and at the same time it's a lucrative fight for him money wise and legacy.

If Steph Fulton himself didn't say those words himself that he will leave the weight class after this fight, regardless of the outcome, then where did the rumor came from that this will be Fulton's last fight before he moves towards the featherweight division. And that his climb was just delay because Inoue became his mandatory challenger and it's a fight where he doesn't have much option but to accept as it will be a win-win situation for him.

Maybe you are not aware of the supposedly rematch with Brandon Figueroa?, and they even have a date already. But then again, he decide to stay at 122 lbs and fight with Inoue. So that is not a rumor, Dan Rafael is a good source of boxing news.

Quote
Dan Rafael is reporting the news on his Substack site of WBC/WBO super bantamweight champion Fulton (21-0, 8 KOs) moving up to featherweight to battle former WBA & WBC 122-lb champion Figueroa (23-1-1, 18 KOs) in a rematch. WBC title expected to be vacated The WBC featherweight belt is being freed up due to champion Rey Vargas going up to 130 to battle O’Shaquie Foster for the vacant WBC super featherweight title next month on February 11th in San Antonio, Texas. If Vargas wins, he’ll need to make a decision whether he wants to keep his WBC 130-lb belt or return to 126 to continue defending his title in that weight class. Returning to the 126-lb division would mean that Vargas will need to defend his WBA featherweight title against the Fulton-Figuera 2 winner.

https://www.boxingnews24.com/2023/01/stephen-fulton-vs-brandon-figueroa-ii-on-february-25th-on-showtime-in-minneapolis/

And things have change, Rey Vargas lost to Foster, Figueroa won against Magsayo and become the champion at 126 lbs. And then the original date of this fight was push through because of Inoue's hand injury.
1087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: May 03, 2023, 03:25:29 PM
The truth seems to me that Spence is not very well regarded from a sporting point of view, I don't know why he doesn't give him a rematch, ...


Wait, who is the fighter that you are referring to that Spence should give a rematch to? Is it Thurman? Because the last time I checked, they haven't fought yet. Thurman has only one defeat, and that came from Pacman. Thurman and Spence have a similarity in that they both beat Shawn Porter, but I can say that Thurman did better compared to Spence.

Anyhow, regardless of who he is referring to, the fact that this fight is not really going to happen or at least what they are promoting in the Tank vs Davis that Spence is going to fight Crawford was obviously a promotional stunt.

So both Spence and Thurman have a long layoffs already. Maybe they will fight in the future, or maybe not. I guess we should move on with Spence right now as he is really disappointing his fans and there are no legacy here except that in this era, we know that he ducks Crawford, not fighting his mandatory despite the organizations ordering it, or trying to set a precedence of supposedly 147 lbs champion fighting at 154 in here and with no belt on the line.
1088  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 03, 2023, 03:01:26 PM
Looks like the front office of the Grizzlies have enough of him already. His destroying the reputation of the team with his trash talks, and I guess we will all agree if I will say that he's the one who trash talks the most in the whole Grizzlies roster, but isn't converting it into stats, and still performing very awfully all throughout the season, and in this last playoffs against the Lakers.

Nevertheless, now that we know that the Grizzlies will not get him again, I wonder which team will try to get him? I hope that the Warriors will get him.  Cheesy Cheesy I mean Westbrook and Beverley became teammates in the Lakers at the start of the season, and we know the beef between the two of them back a few years ago. Don't take what I said very seriously because I don't think that the Warriors will get him anyway. Overall, I'm excited on which team will try and get him after what happened.

I don't that the Warriors is willing to take a player with that kind of attitude, and it's a very different story with Westbrook and Pat Bev, yeah they trash talk but at the end of the day they try to deliver and it's part of their competitive nature.

As compare to Brooks, who says up front that he doesn't like the Warriors including Draymond and the rest. So that's attacking the team itself and there's no competitiveness in that statement, it's just pure hate or he is really envious of the success of the Warriors organization. And he talking about dynasty? right now players are going to laugh at this fool for his statements and his performance in the playoffs.
To bad for brooks he is really a total bad ass which create a bad vibes on their team. And now nba fans throw so much hate on him and provably it can affect his teammates to so provably he will be totally kick out on Grizzlies since he is bad influence to Ja and Bane.

Also for sure even Warriors will not want that guy to be part of that team since Brooks always says bad words against them especially to their stars so it will be bad if they let this guy enter on their rotation since this will be a huge mess for them.

The problem with him is that his stats have dropped a lot this season. Being a trash talker is not new to him, but the team wants someone who can do the job inside the court.

According to https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/brookdi01.htm

His PPG average this season is only 14.3

While the last  3 series are higher.

2019-20 16.2 pts
2020-21 17.2 pts
2021-22 18.4 pts

You can see that there's a huge decline.

You are right, but still though, he can still play defense, but the thing is that he had this attitude, the negativity that every time he open is big mouth, you will hear blabber and I do agree that it is a very negative vibes for the team and the organization he represents which is Memphis. And it did carry to others as well, we know that issues with Ja Morant last February or March and it created more negativity when Brooks attitude, his technical fouls. It will be ok if he can back up the talks, but when he faces like the Lakers this series or even Warriors in the regular season, he can't deliver any.

@NotEssBeeF - Maybe coach Doc Rivers insists on getting small in this series so that they can run. And maybe Harrell is not a good fit on their current system. He could play but not against the Celtics.

According to the articles shared, sports betting will have the highest market gain in the next few years.
What do you think?
I agree to this article but I think what should be more to be improved and strengthen is security and privacy. Internet is getting vast and there will be too many risks as well on security considering it's all online of accounts and most gamblers do tend to stay there money on their accounts.

Everything has it's risk, even if you play on offline base casino, there could be security issues as well. Just like if you let your money sit in exchanges, maybe if the exchange were hack or your accounts be compromise, you will lose your money there. The discussion is about how the gambling industry has grown tremendously.

Just like you, you are carrying a crypto related signature here, so in a nutshell you are also (and most of us here), are part of the gambling industries huge growth. And we can see that we also on sports betting here, at least majority of us follow certain sports. And then the games that we love to play, slots, baccarat, black jack and others.

A real bummer that the Kings weren’t able to win game 7 against the Warriors. I thought they were going to light the beam and end the Warriors legacy but it just wasn’t in the cards. Steph Curry showed why he’s one of the best of all time and they live to face the Lakers. That should be a great series to watch!

Too inexperienced I guess, Sabonis was nowhere to be found in the second half, while Looney is having another tremendous rebounding game. Fox, probably hurt by his injuries, can't buy a basket. And then Malik Monk saying that Curry is old? backfired on them just like what Brooks says to Lebron and they are now both eliminated.

Curry dropping 50 points in a Game 7? that's the record for now and it's hard to break that one. And so we are going to see two GOAT's going against each other and renewing their rivalries back when Lebron is still with the Cavs. The Warriors will have the home court advantage in this series and for sure will have to take advantage of that.
1091  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 30, 2023, 11:27:14 PM
Oscar didn't ditch Canelo though unlike what he did to Ryan after the loss. Just what I have read on news sites.

I haven't followed it though, I saw Floyd comments on no show of Oscar Dela Hoya in the post fight. However, this is Oscar responds,

Quote
Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya says the reason he didn’t attend Ryan Garcia’s post-fight press conference last Saturday night is that he was advised by his security team not to attend because he had received “death threats” all week long and they felt it was too dangerous for him to be in attendance.

https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/oscar-de-la-hoya-blames-death-threats-for-his-no-show-at-ryan-garcias-post-fight-press-conference-after-loss-to-tank/262224)

And another thing that caught my attention though is the case of Bernard Hopkins as well. He was accused according to Oscar of having a testosterone cream in his hands when he touch Tank in the weight it and was requested by PBC to be out right ban in the fight inside. So Bernard is absent as well.

Hard to know that truth though, and probably we might not know the reasons behind why both of them are absent. The death threat was absurd already, but the Hopkins accusations is very different and most likely the first time that we have heard this before.

Knicks dominating the paint so far.  3-16 from 3 ain't gonna cut it though.  They need to just hit some more 3s and keep defending the 3.  This is going to be a great series.  Expecting this one to go 6 or the full 7.  Need Randle back as well.

Nah, the Heat turn it around in the 3rd quarter took the lead and that's it. No Randle for the Knicks so it's going to be a big problem for them. Quickley just had 9 points in the game. While Gabe Vincent started hot in this game with his shooting prowess. And as usual, Jimmy shows up in the game and score when it's needed. I just the experienced of the Heat is one of the big factor here, Lowry, and then Kevin Love, with that 3 outlet pass for easy points.

As I have said, the Knicks need Randle to play, they need his presence inside the court. The Knicks didn't have the rhythm in them after the first quarter. No spark and the Heat put a good defense and body on Brunson.
1093  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | July 25 on: April 30, 2023, 08:45:30 PM
So no surprised that he revealed a no rematch clause. And most likely believed in himself that he has the tools to beat the monster in his division. We all know that Inoue is the one moving up in weight so he is not tested at super bantamweight. And we have seen in boxing history that although you can be great in a division and dominate it, different story when you move up and facing a natural and bigger fighter than you.

Or maybe it could be the other way around. Maybe he believes that once he loses, he won't be able to win again, and his decision might be to move up in weight to try his journey in a new division. Both fighters are not champions, so honestly, I don't find it interesting to have a rematch. It will only delay Inoue's future successes if he has to fight the Fulton again in case he wins. If he can move up after winning a belt, then he is on his way to making history in boxing by winning as many championship fights in different divisions.

I doubt that fighters have that kind of mentality though, I mean they are warriors inside the ring and for sure no one cross their minds that they are going to lose. Even at defeat, some of them can't accept it and says that they still won, and there are robberies in boxing that the fighters wanted to take revenge. So no one believes that once they loses to certain fighter, they won't be able to win. They can adjust and re-adjust their strategies outside and inside the ring.

@inthelongrun - yeah, most likely Fulton is after the money fight with Inoue clash. He did say that he wanted to go out and move to 126 lbs and him and Brandon will make a rematch there. But fighting Inoue is too tempting to resist, and at the same time it's a lucrative fight for him money wise and legacy.

@Boafeng, @bisdak40. Is there a rematch clause for Fulton and Inoue? It appears that this has not been made clear in the news. I cannot find anything that mentions a rematch clause in my hard 10 seconds of searching hehehe. I will do more searching on google later, however, this should be easy to find but is not.

It would also be good for the division if there was no rematch clause. Tapales vs. Akhmadaliev had none and Tapales does not have any mandatory defenses. This implies that he will be given the freedom to fight for a unification against either Fulton or Inoue.

There is no rematch clause, listen to this interview, straight from Fulton himself:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1HlyBFnBm4&t=109s

Go move to 1:33, he was asked about a rematch clause and this is his answer.

Quote
There is no rematch clause.

So there you go, one and done for Fulton and Inoue. He knows Inoue has been knocking out fighters in 118 lbs, but obviously he believes that this is his division and not even Inoue can beat him at 122 lbs.

Well, just as what I expected about that topic because I believe Steph Fulton will climb the next weight class regardless of the outcome if their bout with Inoue. If I'm not mistaken, Fulton was already prepared to climb but it was delayed because he waited for Naoya Inoue after he suddenly announced that he will be leaving the bantamweight and will proceed towards super-bantam.

Actually that was his plan though if I'm not mistaken, him and Brandon Figueroa will have a rematch, but it's going to be at 126 lbs. And we've witnessed Brandon going up in weight without any problems and then defeating Mark Magsayo to end a belt. So perhaps win or lose in this fight against Inoue, he will definitely move up one class above and chase another belt.

So no surprised that he revealed a no rematch clause. And most likely believed in himself that he has the tools to beat the monster in his division. We all know that Inoue is the one moving up in weight so he is not tested at super bantamweight. And we have seen in boxing history that although you can be great in a division and dominate it, different story when you move up and facing a natural and bigger fighter than you.
1095  Economy / Speculation / Re: The bitcoin pump on March 12 on: April 29, 2023, 09:34:59 PM
Since the beginning of March until now the bitcoin price has jumped significantly where the bitcoin price is trading again in the $28k area. Although we don't know exactly what factors make bitcoin pump. We expect, the current price hike to continue and get to above $35k soon.

Bitcoin has grown from $16k to $28k in the first 3 months of the year, and that is considered an impressive gain for bitcoin. I think instead of expecting another big rally, we should think of the scenario bitcoin will correct from now on, bitcoin can't go up one circuit without a correction. We are still in the bearish season so we cannot expect bitcoin to go up forever without falling.
Correct. Indeed bitcoin began to grow back since the beginning of this year. However, that does not mean that the recent rise in bitcoin prices indicates that a bullish phase has occurred, instead we are still in a bearish season because bitcoin price movements are not very significant. Therefore, let's take a look at how far bitcoin's price has moved so far this year. whether the bullish season will occur this year or the bearish season will continue.

You can count it a growing as high as $31k in the first 4 months, although that run was not sustainable as obviously it's a mental price for others to sell their bitcoin to make money. Buying at the lowest low in November, then for sure the price picking up and going $31k, you make a lot of profits already so it make sense to sell to take that short term money.

And we are in the end of month, April and the price is above $29k. So it might not end as green candle for us. But still the price is getting stronger like every month. So this pump might continue though and going till the end of the year. We are technically in the bearish phase and so with that, don't expect like new all time high. We might come to a point that this might might bring us to the $40k-$50k level and then the real bull run will start next year. So exciting times ahead so just continue to buy and HODL.

Dillon Brooks Insults LeBron James While Reacting To Their Mid-Game Confrontation: "I Don't Respect No One Until They Come In And Give Me 40"

I guess Brooks can now respect LeBron, since the Lakers beat them by 40 points. The Lakers are so scary in these playoffs; they have proven to everyone that they are still here. Although they are the underdogs, beating Memphis in 6 is not as easy as we think, but the Lakers dominated the series.

Lastly, I would like to say that Memphis DYNASTY IS OVER!

Dynasty didn't even start on the first place, we've seen some crazy results in this years playoff,

No. 8 Heat knocking out No. 1 seed in Bucks in the East. Then no. 7 Lakers eliminating no. 2 Memphis Grizzlies. And the way that he Lakers taunt Grizzlies at the end of the game is too funny, dancing around. In the end though it was the sportsmanship that prevail. Two years straight that Grizzlies failed and then Morant say's that he is fine in the West and then the Brooks disrespecting the King. Karma is really a bitch, but I doubt that they are going to learn their lessons though.

For the Bucks, there are news that coach Mike Budenholzer job might be on the line after their early exit, as he failed to adjust his team. Leading the game in the last 2 games but eventually choking and losing that very important game.
1097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jason Moloney vs Vincent Astrolabio WBO 118lbs Title (May 13) on: April 29, 2023, 01:33:02 PM
I pick Astrolabio in this fight.

Although Moloney only lost against two top boxers in his weight e.g. Inoue and Emmanuel Rodríguez, but his winnings are mostly against weak boxers. Nawaphon Kaikanha who previously beaten by Moloney is one of the example, he have 58 fights but most of them are unknown boxers.

On other hand, Astrolabio lost 3 times in 2017-2018, but it's already 5 years ago and I think those lost are the factors how Astrolabio can reach at this point. He ever beat Guillermo Rigondeaux who's one of a good boxer, Astrolabio win via unanimous decision while Casimero only win via split decision.

Vincent's lost was early in his career, so we can say that maybe he was still too green that time or doesn't have the benefits of having a good trainer in his side. But once he matured, his career really took off and his last 3 wins is very impressive indeed, that's why now he has that opportunity to level up and become a champion in the bantamweight. And as what others mentioned, do not underestimate Filipinos as they might look weak or something, but they can deceived their opponents.

On the other hand, although Moloney has face tough opponents, he always feel short. Meaning he could not be in the caliber of elite fighters in bantamweight, more of a gate keeper boxer.

Most likely the majority here could be in the last tier. No offense, but it seems every one is late on the bandwagon, or least just join the fun in 2017 and we really don't know what to expect or at least have plans to accumulate as much as we can. Or even if he did save a lot, maybe sold off during the height of the bull run to make money and take that profits.

Nothing is wrong with that, but at least if we didn't sell our stash and wait for the bear market, accumulate, rinse and repeat them maybe as time goes by, we could be going up in the tier position.

But I would understand if everyone is not going to disclosed how much BTC they have.
1099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: April 28, 2023, 09:50:07 PM
Haney is probably bigger, but they'll be on the same weight on the day of the fight. So just like the Tank vs. Garcia fight where Garcia was the taller fighter and probably bigger, Tank Davis was still able to find a way to hurt Garcia and knock him out.

That was a different match. It was just a matter of time before Davis would land that perfect punch to bring Garcia down, regardless of how tall or big Garcia is. As to Haney and Loma, they both don't have that super powerful punch like Tank's. So this is most probably a fight that ends in a decision. So with a bigger Haney that also has a longer reach, Loma will really have to be quick and make use of his unbelievable footwork to close the distance and score.

You bring a good point, in this case Loma is known to have a very good and quick foot work. And that's how we see Loma during the start of his career, unbelievable footwork that no one can match, not even quality Olympians like him in Rigo, who just quit in his stool because he can't cope with Loma's technique.

So their style could really be a match made him heaven here. And what we have said, this could be a tactical and a chess match. Unlike to Garcia and Davis fight wherein they rely on their power to win via knockout. This one, the boxing IQ of this boxers will be in display. There could be rounds that Haney is dominating because of his long reach and taking advantage of his height. And then the next round, Loma coming back with his superior movement and hand speeds and then touching Haney at will. So it could go into the distance and gonna be hard to score for sure.

Yes, the word here is technical. Both Haney and Loma are technical fighters. So this is a completely different match from Davis vs. Garcia in which a knockout is expected to happen. Both Tank and Garcia are just looking for the perfect timing to knock the opponent down or out. In Loma vs. Haney, the battle is about points. The goal is simply to outsmart, outmaneuver, and outpoint the other. Any knockdown or knockout is just a bonus and is unexpected.

Yep, that will be the proper term here, going to be very 'technical' match as both their skills because they don't have the power, it's not that they can't produce a knockout, it the right situation presents itself, then maybe they can win via knockout. But most likely, this two loves to pit their style against each other. So it's going to be a back and forth battle in the ring and as you have said, if we see a knockout or knockdown, it's going to be a big bonus for us. And base on the odds, the over and under rounds is 10.5. And the odds for the over round 10.5 is very low at 1.17. So even bookies predicts that this fight might go down the full distance. And the winner will have to go to the judges scorecard.

Bookies know it for sure because as you guys have mentioned, both Haney and Loma are not known to be a knockout boxer because they are more known for their technicalities. So, the odds released by the bookies did really make some sense that this fight would likely end in the judge's hand and not by a way of some TKO or KO but who knows, one of them might commit a mistake that will be a reason that the fight will end much earlier than expected. But I'm expecting a tight fight with full of defense and counter attacks.

Both of this guys as we have said is very technical, so I'm not really seeing anyone of them committing mistakes like over extend the punch. Although I would say that Haney has history though of being over aggressive and it might cost him this fight if he do it against Loma. Sort of like he is very confident and could be underestimating the great Loma.

Like in his fight against Linares, Haney was almost knockout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpPHztgLTLE. He was lucky that it was the end of the round.

And here is Loma against the same boxer getting a flash knock down, but he didn't wobbled: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ezsYovJZcU

Great catch, and yes, it's true after the Chipmixer seizure, there are a lot of new and old mixer tumbler that suddenly highlighted and it's obvious criminals will have to do what they're best, cloning mixer sites because it's so easy and it's instant money for them.

I also recommend:
