Meanwhile, the WBC mandated 122 WBO/WBC champ Stephen Fulton to rematch Brandon Figueroa at 126 for the WBC interim belt. Should Fulton accepts the mandate, his 2 122 belts might become vacant which is a good opportunity for Casimero and even for Inoue. Maybe Casimero and Inoue will fight for a vacant belt right away.
This is good news for both Inoue and Casimero as they have vacant belts which they can look forward to even if they don't meet right away. I hope this will happen, for sure Inoue will go for that belt and if Casimero will be the best challenger for him, that would make the fight perfect as their supposed fight did not happen in the bantamweight division but it will happen in a heavier division. I'm looking forward to this, let us keep updated on this news, and thanks for sharing by the way. Guess if that is the case, it's better if Casimero will have the belt in 122 lbs before eventually facing Inoue. Because both could really be motivated to take each other heads off, Casimero again calling for Inoue and if everything went as plan, (him winning against Akaho, Fulton vacating his belt, and then Casimero getting a chance to get a title or eliminator). So lot of good opportunity for Casimero, he just need to take this 1st step of getting a win in this division. |

And then those who bet on the Heat at -1.5, just a shade shy though. Very good game but the Wizards win at the end. Celtics continuing with their run.
It was very close and a very defensive game, imagine, both teams only score a total of 5 points in the overtime period.  I haven't watch the game, but it went to OT, but as usual Heat is a good defensive team, but the big 3 of Wizards produce more than 50% of their score, Beal, Kuz and KP scores 20+ points or more. Oh and the 5 points is combine for both team, not sure if that is the lowest we have seen so far this season in a OT game. |

Good day everyone, since the collapse of FTX we had many discussion about people withdrawing their Bitcoin from exchanges. You can check the balances here https://www.coinglass.com/Balance. We went from 2.1 million BTC all the way down to 1.9 million BTC. Until yesterday Binance was one of the biggest looser with over 80k BTC withdrawn over the last 30 days. Coinbase was ranked first, but also with massive loses. Nearly all exchanges lost huge amounts, fitting perfectly in the narrative of people withdrawing their bitcoin. But suddenly in the last 24 hours Binance added and incredible 92,000 Bitcoin to their exchange an amount never seen before on the exchange (according to coinglass, and if you check the last 12 months). I found very little info about that, and all nearly other exchanges are still getting their balance reduces. Do we have some info about that or any idea whats going on? Or maybe Binance or CZ wanted to show their "proof of reserves" or whatever he calls it? But there are still outflows and inflows that we really don't know what's going on behind the scene, and everyone is upbeat because of what had happened to FTX. And I guess this is going to continue, until everything settles down. https://coingape.com/are-crypto-exchanges-faking-proof-of-reserves-cz-warns-investors/ |

This concept isn't new. There are some websites already where you interact with another users through posts and articles while being possible to earn money with this. Examples: Medium and Publish0x.
Futurely Twitter may add the tipping feature to the platform as well.
Therefore, in my opinion it's hard for a new platform offering this same feature to thrive. It's a very banal usage for justifying the launchment of a new altcoin, since you can already have access to consolidated websites like the ones mentioned above.
Yes, I was about to same Medium, because that's the first thing that comes into my mind about this so called decentralized platform. But to be honest, they are not doing any good as well, they have been in the market though, but not the kind of consensus that we have seen in Twitter. Not saying that they are bad, but perhaps since everyone is on Twitter I doubt that we need another one in the market that will really turn things around, just saying. So for this is a risk, you can used it but who's going to used or read it? |

Arum is a genius, so yeah for sure he won't let that happen unless the champion is weak, but Fulton is no pushover. So I'm expecting Arum to just pick someone that can easily be beaten by Inoue by knockout or by another impressive win. We should step aside politics here if Inoue won't face the super bantamweight champions right away once he moved up. It's just makes sense to not expect Inoue goes directly against the champions because after all, he is new in that division even though it's just a small leap. Testing the waters is just a usual way for someone who just moved up so don't blame Arum if that will happen right away. Inoue just has to continue his winnings and soon, he will now finally have a chance to face those champions. Inoue has a chance to face other champion as we all know his skills and knowledge about in boxing game and also his speed and strategies is recommendable to fight against another champion he is unstoppable right now I believe on inoue to hold another title for sure he can win and hold it and for sure bob arum will give him a good fight and if he win then another title to b hold just in my opinion. There has been no doubt about Inoue's prowess, speed and reaction towards his opponent, the monster is expected to evolve with the experience he gains from every fight he had. Even if you ask the so-called experts or even Bob Arum, they will all say the same thing that the current Inoue is in-fact already battle ready for the champions in the super-bantam. But Bob Arum has a job to do and that is to keep Inoue much safer, Inoue should be first get used in the weight as there is also no need for him to be in a hurry. Just finished watching Inoue vs Moloney fight, Inoue is really something, his hands are that fast and has power and the timing as well. Although Moloney did hit him with some good shots, still Inoue was not affected. So not sure how long will Butler last if he taste Inoue's power. I'm thinking that this fight will not really last, initially I thought that Butler is tough and might stay at least 6 rounds. But now I have doubts about it, maybe under 7.5 rounds. |

@Yaunfitda. Agreed. They might not be the champions and the kings of their weight divisions, however, they have the biggest names. This is very much similar to Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz in the UFC, I reckon. It can also be argued that this fight might be as big or bigger than Spence vs. Crawford in excitement and expectation for the fans.
Yeah, they might not be champions but this is what hard core fans of this sweet science is longing for as well as the ordinary fans, they want to see toe to toe actions which for me this fight if pushes through could deliver the actions. I reckon that this is an even match, though Davis is the experienced fighter but Garcia has the size advantage that if used well could make life hard for Davis. I just hope though that this would push through this time and not just hype on social media and end up like the Spence vs Crawford negotiation. True, no belts, at least the regular one and yet this is one of the most anticipated fight, everyone is waiting for this, just like when we are all excited by the Spence vs Crawford fight. And I do agree that this is a 50:50 fight in my book, as Tank and Ryan possesses power in this division, the fight is going to be made in a catchweight of 136 lbs. As Ryan said he can't make it to 135 lbs no more and if I'm not mistaken he fought Tagoe at a catchweight at well. While Garcia fought at 135 lbs against Rolly Romero, he has a experience fighting at 140 lbs against Barrios. |

^ Correct me if I'm wrong though, isn't it the relationship between Tim and his legendary father is not that good? At least that's how I got it from the news and he has been in boxing without his father's help or influence in his career. So I don't know if he will learn from him father since he is not with his side in any of his fight.
However, Tim can't deny that he has his father DNA and that might be enough to bring him to greatness.
Yes, hard fought match and so it's starts with finding a good sparring partner in order to better prepare him in this fight.

I'd say that Spence should secure a rematch clause just to be sure if ever Thurman will indeed manage to upset Spence because I can see that Thurman might face another boxer instead if he's through with Spence as there's no clause that will block his way. Just a wild speculation though!  That makes sense, it's indeed better for Spence to do that and secure a rematch clause if ever the fight won't go as expected, just an added safety precaution so that Thurman will be obliged to fight him again. There's a high percentage that Thurman will move on and maybe fight Crawford next if he will upset Spence. However, if Spence here and his camp is really that confident that he can defeat the former champion then there's no need for that. Not sure though if that is going to be included, they are under PBC as far as I know. So both of them could simply request for a rematch if the fight ended in a controversial manner. And Al Haymon would love it, as the money will all be in house. I'm still not seeing the odds for this fight though, but I think Spence will be the outstanding favorite in this fight as Thurman has been out for many months after his comeback win against Barrios. |

Knicks had a great win in Denver on the road. Yep Denver was without jokic but going out west in Denver is never easy no matter the lineup. 2-0 on the west coast trip they need to get some wins behind them and clear space between being .500
Thibs is now locked into a 9 man rotation which seems to be working. They go into golden state Friday night, I'm not expecting much from that visit but that's why they play the games right! Glad nba is getting underway, fall is always the best season for sports.
It's good that they got a win against the Denver team, but obviously, they don't have their MVP and it was a very close game. But against the Warriors at home, it might be tough for them. Curry just drop 50 points but they lost on the road against the Phoenix Suns. For sure they want to have a good bounce in their own homecourt so as much as we wanted for the Knicks to upset the Warriors, it will be hard pressed for them. |

Do you have this kind of casino?
I don't have this kind of casino yet or have not yet discovered it, but if I do I would treasure it and be afraid of the day that my lucky casino will start yielding disappointing results. But during my time with while my Lucky casino is still bringing me luck, I would not mind playing a lot. The bad thing I think is that there will be no way to know the exact day my luck with my lucky casino will run out. For me all crypto based casinos are all the same, if you are a slot machine player, obviously you know that this is based on pure luck so no matter where you play or what casino you are in, it doesn't matter, it's based on random and you just hope that you are getting lucky that day. Same for sports betting, maybe the odds are different, but you are all betting on the same game at that particular moment, so it doesn't matter on what platform you are playing, the outcome is what is important, just saying. |

today i saw bitcoin price going down, and i want to ask everyone, what caused bitcoin to go down? Is it because the world economy is in decline or not?
Are you worried about bitcoin dropping to $16k right now? What is causing bitcoin to go down right now is the panic that is happening to some people because they think that with the much negative news about bitcoin or crypto out there. The world economy is indeed shaken and it is a possibility that it will decline and it looks like it will impact bitcoin. But bitcoin will rise again, and you don't need to worry and stay patient. This is a normal correction that happens in crypto, giving investors an opportunity to return to investing at low prices because this may be their last chance before the price starts to increase. Yeah, I think everyone is worried about the sudden decline of the price, if I'm not mistaken, we are in sort of a good run reaching $21k then suddenly the price goes down hard to $18k then the current price that we have. So there could be others feeling nervous because of the massive drop, nevertheless, for experience investors, this is a good time to buy and invest, for newbie, all they want is to get out. And so the best advise that we can give to them is not to worry and just be patience and invest and look for the long haul. We are in a bear market, so it's just normal to see the price going down to -70% or higher just like the previous bearish cycle. |

I don't think that begging will be enough from SBF to be able to salvage his FTX, he has caused a lot of money from investors, so I highly doubt that anyone is willing to lend him a hand right now.
It's his own wrong doings, he mismanage everything, he didn't have the money to begin with, all is running on fractional reserves and so when withdrawals happens, those who left their money behind can't withdraw and the messed started. For me it's time for SBF to be not delusional, but man enough to face the consequences of his actions.

It's good to see Pacquiao back in the ring even though it's a promotion fight. It's obvious who will win in this match. I've seen a few videos of DK Yoo on youtube and had no idea he is a martial artist. As long as the fight's proceeds go somewhere else and it will benefit those who are in need it will be worth promoting. I am really not a fan of exhibition match since most boxer who does this do it for the money, take Mayweather and Logan Paul for instance. If you retire from boxing keep it as it is, stop for good and stop going back just to make some money. Not to mention most of it are scripted.
There could be hard fans like you who doesn't want exhibition matches, but what can you do? this boxers will need to earn money again, and in this case, easy money as this is the only way they know how to make ends meet. So Mayweather and Paul Brothers started this whole even, but as you know, Floyd is very smart, taking fight after fight and in just matter of minutes earning millions without having to sweat it out, like Jake Paul recently against Anderson Silva. I don't really see any reason why the fans would be against such fights. It's not a continuation of a career, it's just another activity. With their fame, they could go on a cooking show and make a lot of money too, but the best ex-pros can do is in the ring, so it's not surprising that they end up there again. It is necessary to separate a professional career and everything else. Boxers, even if they ended their career at the age of 40, cannot go to a monastery for the sake of remembering themselves as just a pro and not doing anything else. That's why they are fanatics, because that how they wanted their famous boxers to be, retired for good. But times has change, although there are exhibition fights before, it was not that prominent as today, it was Floyd who really started this trend. And I agree that even if this is scripted, but as we can see, fans are willing to pay huge amount just to see their favorite boxers in the ring. I'm not sure though you comparison about the monastery,  . They are still human and need to do and still make some money for their family. |

I’d be shocked if LeBron was ever included in a trade and I think the league would be hesitant to let LeBron and KD be on the same team together, but it’s fun to think about.
That's good to imagine but if there's really a possibility and the Nets would be willing to do that, after all of those trade offers that the Nets have made before the start of the season and no team has been willing to take their offer. I doubt that this is going to happen when the Lakers are already on the verge of losing more this season and might be out for the play offs. We will see the development on these rumors if they're going to be for real. I'm also not seeing the two playing together, I mean the possibility is there, but it will take a lot lot of players from Lakers, not only Davis, and for this to happen they need another team inserted into the picture. Of course, we all dream of seeing them together, there are even interviews by Durant saying that Lebron is the greatest player for him recently. And this maybe fuel the rumors of the two trying to make that duo in the picture but I highly doubt it for now. |

Whether he is active with his training is out of our knowledge since there is no news that Thurman is still on training even though he is in idle status but I am sure that Thurman had started his training when the fight between him and Barrios was sealed. Thurman is still sharp on his fight against Barrios, he dominates the Barrios even though Barrios is the bigger and looks more solid fighter.
So I think we shouldn't jump into a conclusion that Thurman doesn't pose a threat as other boxers.
Thurman is a real challenge for Spence but when it comes down to skill Spence can deliver he is an A1 in his division no one can deny that claim I don't see Thurman beating Spence but I don't see Thurman getting knocked out by Spence too, Thurman's defense and stamina is still good compared to other fighters Spence fought, Spence is likely to win by unanimous decision, he is a very dominant fighter, very technical and likes to wait, expose his opponent's weakness and exploit it. This fight is worth watching than the Crawford - Avanesyan fight which is going to be an easy fight for Crawford. Thurman though has a history of gassing out in later rounds as he usually faded. And if Spence is going to target his body which is his weakest, then for sure Spence could be the first out to knock out Thurman here. For me, ever since that Pacquiao lost, he is a different boxer already, that mentality of him goes down. And i think his stamina will be in question here. Spence is a different boxer, if he sense that his opponent in fading in the late round he might go and look for a knockout. |

Close game between the Cavs and the Wolves. T'wolves have a big clean and just cruising in the 4th quarter, leading 18 with less than 10 minutes.
Suddenly Garland exploded, he finishes the game with 51 big points, 10 three's, Mitchell didn't play though.
Then cut it down to 2 points in the last closing seconds, they still have a chance to tie the score unfortunately a bad pass by Kevin Love, intercepted by the T'wolves and then Prince hitting 2 FT for the final score.

I don't think everything is good after bitcoin shaved off a huge percent of its price. This just goes to show how volatile crypto still is even after existing for more than a decade. But on the positive note, this can greatly help a lot of people in buying bitcoin cheaply and have something for themselves as well. A good entry point to those looking to keep their bitcoins in the long run, I'd say, and there might not even be another opportunity like this in the future.
I think the latter should be case as what the OP said, the shave off was a big opportunity for those who are late in the game, maybe from 2020 to current. And then seeing the price going down on a spiral move in the last week, hitting $15k as new lowest low, those who want to enter will be happy so see that price and now comparing it to the 2018 bear market, at least that early price before the end of 2018. So I do agree, another chance and hopefully investors are going to take advantage of it and not become fearful of the price crash. Maybe they are thinking that bitcoin could spiral move, and then declare it dead again. History shows us that bitcoin will always recover by this crash and then eventually goes on a massive bull run right after the halving. |

Speaking of the WBC convention, As the WBC convention continues to move forward, a slew of bouts was recently ordered. Amongst them, a WBC title eliminator between Stevenson and Isaac Cruz was officially penciled in. https://www.boxingscene.com/shakur-stevenson-welcomes-isaac-cruz-title-eliminator-i-dont-duck-dodge-anybody--170355dI think this is a great fight for Shakur if he step up to 135 lbs, Pitbull is no pushover, the pressure and the power, let's see how Shakur will cover that one. He want's to fight Devin Haney but I guess he needs to go in line. I think Loma will have the first crack, but then again the problem with Shakur vs Cruz might be their promotions and network ties. Hopefully the WBC could be their middle main so that this title eliminator will happen next year. I'm surprised if Shakur want to move to lightweight division, after I read a news on 3 weeks ago if Shakur losses all his belts because he missed the weight against Conceicao, it's make sense. Well Isaac Cruz is a good stepping stone for Shakur before he want to fight Haney, Loma or Tank. Lightweight division is very exciting and bloody since each boxers has capabilities to beat the other boxers. Maybe the real champion on lightweight division need to fight the top 5 boxers before he need to move to the next weight. He said before and after the fight with Robson that he is done with the 130 lbs division. Because his body can't take it no more. And so he is calling like Davis, Loma and Haney. And if I'm not mistaken, he was there watching Davis last fight and again said him and Davis will make a great fight. But if he will get Isaac Cruz as a title eliminator, it's more than welcome for him. At least he can showcase his talent against a hard hitting boxer like Isaac. Lightweight is solid right now, lots of good boxer, pretty stack up division. We already had that doubt because Shakur gave a few hints that 130 lbs is not for him anymore and so it happened in his last weigh-in. Anyway, not a bad opponent for Shakur Stevenson's first fight because Pitbull will get him tested if he does have the skills and talents to defeat the boxers at the top of lightweight division. And indeed, lightweight division are getting much attention these days than welterweight because the elites are stacked there and so there will be a lot of interesting fights that could happen next year, hopefully that includes Garcia vs Davis and Loma vs Haney. Yes, it's not a bad opponent and it could be dangerous as well. But it seems that he is no ducking anyone as what he said, he is more willing to face the dangerous Isaac Cruz. We have a lot of fights in the wing, Garcia vs Davis, these two have been promising us boxing fans for a fight, hopefully it will push through next year regardless of their network. And then for all the belts, Haney vs Loma, another great fight for us, Loma used to have all the belts, but Haney's skills are too much for Kambosos. Who knows, maybe Kambosos will figure out how to stay in the division as well to mess things up. |

This NBA season is already crazy in a lot of aspects but for now , Bucks , Mavs and Celtics are the best teams in my opinion with a solid start , great basketball and a lot of effort from this 3 teams every time they step on the court.
Another game for Lakers tomorrow morning but I don't see them winning against Nets who are playing great without Irving but they could play even better with him on the squad...but who knows when we will see Irving back. For Lakers this game is all or nothing I suppose or the team morale will most likely be on all time low if they don't win.
Bucks have started this season really well, I think they could be the best team of the year. If their performance continues like this, I am sure that they will be among the top 3 teams in the playoffs. The season is very long and we have many matches ahead of us, but it is not possible to say anything negative about their performance so far. They only lost 2 matches I think the Bucks and the Celtics could be the best team this season. Both of this teams have chemistry that they have build for many years, if they are not going to clash on the playoffs, then hopefully we can see them in the East finals. Another game for Lakers tomorrow morning but I don't see them winning against Nets who are playing great without Irving but they could play even better with him on the squad...but who knows when we will see Irving back. For Lakers this game is all or nothing I suppose or the team morale will most likely be on all time low if they don't win.
Nets is also just like the Lakers that are having problem with their wins but we shall see if this is game is for Lakers or Nets. The Nets though has find ways to win and they are doing very good after Kyrie gets suspended. While the Lakers continue to struggle if Westbrook continue to have a good performance. They really need Lebron back in the lineup. |
