Artur Beterbiev is the reason why the supposed fight against Anthony Yarde last August was not pushed through.
What's the status of Beterbiev regarding that injury? Since this fight becomes official, of course, he is cleared to fight but I'm sure that injury might still give an effect and change his performance even slightly.
This will be Yarde's biggest break in his career although Beterbiev is really a tough boxer to beat. I believe Artur Beterbiev is fully healed since they already accepted the fight date. This is indeed the biggest break for Yarde's career. What more can he ask for? A title fight in his own backyard. And Beterbiev is not just bringing 1 belt but the 3 belts and the lineal recognition as the best in the division, something WBA titlist Dmitry Bivol should envy. Yes, it is safe to assume that Artur Beterbiev is already healthy and safe to fight Yarde this coming January because Bob Arum won't sure approve the announced timeline if his boxer is not yet capable to fight in the next few months. Surely, Bob won't take the risk to get Beterbiev at the disadvantage and somehow give Yarde an advantage to defeat his boxer because that will mean that he won't be having the pleasure of making some business worth millions when the undisputed fight of the LHW begins. Or Bob Arum wil not give the go signal if he thinks that Beterviev might lose this fight. So the risk is there, but it's just minimal so this fight will happen next year. Yarde's only advantage is that he have the crowd behind him and Beterviev being a Russian, could get a lot of boos from the crowd. But this is professional boxers, he can block it out and just focus on the job at hand that is to beat their home town boy. Yes, including that fact. Once the doctors have cleared Beterbiev then that means that he is already safe and healthy to prepare for his upcoming fight with Anthony Yarde but the funny thing is that Beterbiev was the one who got injured but Yarde is the one who takes a tune-up fight before their fight this coming Jan. 28 .. Not sure if this will take a toll on Yarde and give him some hardships because the tune-up fight and his fight with Beterbiev is too near with each other. |

I'm sure adjusting to 122 from 118 won't be a big problem and he can adjust easily to it. Not unless he will have the same health status as Casimero that struggles to catch the 118lbs at the target date although not unlikely to happen for Inoue.
Because it is the hardest thing in boxing, the adjustment of weight either above or below your usual weight and still maintain a good body condition is not that easy though. Many struggles on that phase just to make a fight. True, there are boxers that also struggles when they move up in weight, they seems to look like overweight on the next division. And I guess that's what really separates legendary boxer to just ordinary boxers, because legendary boxers such as Pacquiao, Oscar Dela Hoya and Floyd can go up in weight and somewhat carry their power and win against natural boxers within that weight class. Hopefully Casimero and Inoue can go up without any problems at super bantamweight. That also separates them from the ordinary boxers because the likes of Manny Pacquiao and the ones you named are truly born to be a boxer, it's like fate has already selected them that they will be a legendary boxer once they grew up and achieve a milestone that will separate them from the ordinary boxers. As the cases stated, it is truly difficult to jump from one division to another because in most cases, a boxer can climb the next weight class, but his power and skills won't be going with him. Unlike these legendary boxers, they made it so easy jumping through different weight class while defeating the champions. Hopefully Casimero and Inoue can go up without any problems at super bantamweight. We will find out about that soon. Casimero already made the move, Inoue will be up next when he is already finished collecting all the belts in bantamweight. |

Anyway, for the games tomorrow, I would only pick one which is the Clippers beating the Warriors on the road.  This one is good because the Warriors recently are very unpredictable, they are 7-1 at home but Clippers is not an easy team to beat. Leonard is already playing although with limited minutes but that would inspire his teammates more. Their win against the Utah Jazz is enough for them to bring that momentum going to chase center. It was good if the Clippers won, LOL. Unfortunately, I miss looking at the report before placing my bet, no superstars for the Clippers except for John Wall who only score 9 points. If only Leonard played, then maybe there's a chance they'll win. It's just a bad bet. Almost made the same choice and had bet on the Clippers juicy ML. But fortunately, when I was just browsing about their recent stats, I bumped to an article that says that it will be a starless night for the Clippers which had me thinking why the ML was too good to be true. Lesson learned for me not to get careless again because there will be sometimes that a tip-off will come late. Just like this one. Anyway, I believe that the score of their game earlier is quite reasonable because if Leonard or PG were playing, the Warriors will take a different route rather than giving their 2nd squads sometime. We can see that Klay and Steph were not given long minutes on the court so that they can still rest. |

Ok just to make it formal:
"On November 14, 2022, TGB Promotions applied for special permission on behalf of Spence to fight Thurman in February 2023, but with specific mandatory conditions. Pursuant to WBA rule C.16, which states that mandatory defense periods can be modified for cause, either by special permission request or on its own initiative, the WBA decided that Spence can face Thurman," the WBA stated.
https://www.boxingscene.com/errol-spence-vs-keith-thurman-title-fight-approved-by-wba--170619So this fight has been sanctioned by the WBA already, one of Spence belt, and now that we have 2 bodies already, WBC + WBA and perhaps the IBF will follow suit with the mandatory fight order as well. And to add to this, WBA also ordered WBA "regular" welterweight champion Eimantas Stanionis to make a mandatory defense against Vergil Ortiz. And then the winner facing the winner of Spence vs Thurman to have one single champion. This makes things more interesting because Spence is now more oblige to fight Thurman, he obviously cannot make some priorities on that revenge that he might be wanted because that will be an expensive mistake that will cost him 2 belts and there's a high chance that the IBF will follow as well, if that happens, all 3 belts is now on the line. Keith will surely be excited because things are getting into his favor, now the only thing he needed to do is to defeat Spence. There's nothing to worry about that this fight will not happen because both boxers will certainly find a way to make sure it will happen. Thurman should be happy with this fight, after his comeback win, now he is going to fight the champion and he will have a chance to win that belts. I'm really not that worried because I know that this mandatory fight will surely happen unlike from the supposed undisputed fight, Errol Spence may want to give some revenge because this is a bit too personal for him, but I do not think that Al Haymon will give his blessing and just let Spence do his thing. Keith Thurman on the other hand is surely glad that the WBA is also joining the club. |

The Philadelphia 76ers are beating the Brooklyn Nets right now even though Brooklyn has Kevin Durant, Ben Simmons, & Kyrie Irving and the 76ers are playing without Joel Embiid, James Harden, & Tyrese Maxey. Gamblers who are Philly fans might end up happy campers tonight. The Brooklyn Nets big 3 aren’t playing bad either. They’re just being out worked by the Philly bench players.
Philly's second team still holding up with a three-point lead. It will be embarassing for the Nets to lose here but they would probably take them out in the fourth. Good game so far but it's just disappointing to see both teams trading missed 3-pointers late in the third quarter. And it's over now, 115-109, and that is why the Sixers are a huge underdog in this game. Without their stars Joel and Harden and yet their second unit was able to snag that win against the Nets. Melton and Tobias Harris did the damage for the Sixers. The big 3 of the Nets have good game, but the Sixers really make it hard for them. Good for those who bet on the Sixers in this game. Maxey wasn't around with the Sixers too yet they still managed to hold and defeat the complete and healthy Brooklyn Nets. The Sixers 2nd squad was impressive in their game earlier and exactly the reason why they're still competitive even without their stars, but that doesn't mean they don't need them already because with Embiid and Harden, their chances are much likely increases. Tomorrow they will face the Hornets and they are again the underdogs, this might be good. |

I really don't understand why Steven Kerr didn't choose to rest his star yesterday and have then all in today, I believe that the Pelicans are a much more better team than Rockets, if with their best players they couldn't get a win against Houston Rockets, I wonder they hope to do hit against an healthy Pelicans.
I like that idea. Whenever they will have a back-to-back game they should think about using the 2nd team if their first opponent will be the weaker team. They have a fighting chance by doing that, and then the 1st team will have their rest and be used for the next game against the stronger team. Why didn't they think about that?  @Harkorede they need you on the coaching staff. Just kidding.  But I do agree with your logic there. I won several live bets but I also lost a lot yesterday, I could say I just got ROI. Tomorrow, 4 games only. I think the 76ers vs Nets will be covered by TNT. That will surely be more fun. Only one bet I could think of that have a winning chance. Sacramento Kings -3.5. The Lakers had been winning games so I am doubtful to bet for the Suns. Denver Nuggets is filled with injuries (Covid related) so Detroit Pistons might win. I cannot understand that part as well why they choose the Rockets instead of the Pelicans, just maybe, maybe Steve Kerr is just too eager to get the franchise a win because the team is quite a mess for the past games they had especially that straight road games they did and ended getting defeated for I think 5 consecutive games. For tomorrow: Celtics -4.5 vs Mavericks Bulls vs Bucks -7 |

Also, it is every boxer's dream is to maintain their undefeated status while also cement their legacy and there's just few boxers who did that until they retire.
As for this one, Inoue will have to risk his record in-order to gain because he won't be growing if he will always stay in his comfortable division.
Naoya Inoue already knows and surely understands that moving up will come to him. He's prepared for that. Besides, I think SuperBantamweight will still be his comfortable division soon as it's not that a big leap from Bantamweight to Super Bantamweight. It's easy to move up instead of moving down. Boxers increase their strength more during moving up as they will also take additional training in the process. So far, Naoya Inoue don't have any issues on his weight that is why he is planning to climb the next weight class and I reckon that he just don't see himself staying long at the bantamweight division if he can still move up and grab titles. As we all know, rumors had it that Inoue might be following Pacquiao's footstep or trying to break it. By the way, I echo your sentiment that super bantam will be soon Inoue's comfortable division because the weight difference is not that big. So, his prowess won't be heavily affected at all. |

Seriously?! You're that young to become addicted in gambling and the school has to kick you out from their institution. Luckily, on my part, I was able to hold still on that younger days of my life. I'm able to gamble and at the same time it was just maintained. I guess what helped me is that because I was still young, got no money, got no source of money to gamble. That situation I have been in truly helped me at least to naturally control me with my finances and gambling activities, not that addicted but still a gambler. I said seriously, I used to be very addicted to gambling games, every time there was a gambling that was excited, I would immediately put a lot of money there because at that time I thought big capital would get big profits stupid me, I did something like that when I was in school, at that time I had no income and the fastest way I made money was by stealing and using school money, I used it in the hope that it would return many times over but in fact it was the other way around, I actually lost everything I think almost all of us here can understand your situation in the past, I mean, I cannot really define if I was already addicted too when I was a teenager but I know that feeling of excitement every single time that I do hear gambling words or if my mates are gambling until I was drawn into those activities and used some other resources so that I would be playing everyday. Not a good thing of course but the important thing is that we already put those things in the past, now I'm still gambling but only to entertain myself and with some limit so that I won't be crossing some lines again. |

Realized it's not Ryan Garcia he's fighting this Jan7. I actually thought the date was moved from Jan to May which Tank will also be fighting with Ryan.
Davis really needs a lot of money to resolve his cases and for this, he's going to whack the 2 Garcias. Ryan will get a title shot against Haney if he goes to jail right?
Only the hardcore boxing fans knows who Hector is, he isn't also a walk in the park. I wonder if Tank's fight with Ryan will be canceled if he loses against Hector by unexpected upset.
Davis (27-0, 25 KOs) later announced Friday on Instagram that he's set to fight 130-pound titleholder Hector Luis Garcia on Jan. 7 in Washington D.C. The fight, which Davis must win to move onto the planned April 15 bout vs. Garcia (Ryan), will be a Showtime PPV, according to a source, and will be contested at 135 pounds rather than 130 for Garcia's title. https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/35048076/ryan-garcia-gervonta-davis-agree-catchweight-showdownWell, it says here that Tank Davis should have a win in his first bout versus Hector (his debut in 135 lbs.) so that his fight with Ryan Garcia will go through afterwards. Now, that time frame is too short to prepare for a fight with Hector Garcia, don't know which they're underestimating between the two Garcia's because the fight schedule is just too close with each other with just only 2 months of preparation. Yes, the fight schedule is too close with each other and that's why others are questioning why Tank needs to fight Hector Garcia first. Of course, he won't underestimate Hector Garcia and could win by knock out, but it might take some toll of his body, who knows, he might get injured again in his hands just like when he had his fight against Isaac Cruz. But as I have said, as long as him and Ryan will fight this year, then everything should be good on our part as boxing fans. Not this year, Tank Davis will handle both Garcias next year and I've read too that Ryan Garcia also have his own opponent to face this January, don't know if it's true, maybe we will know it soon. It seems to me that both of them is taking a tune-up fight or at least that's what people call it but Davis's case is different because Hector is not the right boxer if Davis's camp just want a warm up. They might be shocked that Davis will have a hard time because this Hector is not an easy one. |

Will this be another season that Lakers fail in even qualifying for playoffs?
Considering the current level of performance, they are really going that way for now. They are the second worst team in the Western Conference after Rockets now. Lebron is giving his best in every single game as usual. Now he has got a thigh injury and missed three games because of it already. If they have another very poor season then I assume Lebron might think of leaving in case he gets a reasonable offer. He is already waiting for playing beside his son and the team don't matter for him I assume.
Seriously not. Judging from their recent performance, yes they got a few wins along the way but they are still struggling to be consistent which is surely not enough to even qualify in the play-in tournament. And if that's already their limit then they should start rebuilding in the next season because their current roster won't get anywhere far. But they still have a chance to improve while the qualifying phase is still far, I'm thinking that they should stop revolving around Lebron because that's mostly where they messed up, Lebron end up working alone because they are following his play. Let Lebron adjust because there's no doubt that he can still contribute, let the other players step up so that they will be the ones who will end up carrying the team because Lebron cannot do that job anymore. Yes, consistency is the key for them right now but I can see a hope for them. Last games were not so bad for them, I feel like we might see a little improvement in the at least short term. I agree with your point about Lebron. I hugely respect him and actually love his approach to basketball in the last 5-10 years, but he cannot carry the team anymore. He is just merely too old. That must be accepted by everyone, most of all Lebron. He is still a huge star but it is obvious that some things have to be changed for Lakers, and Lebron might be the biggest of them. I don't know, but if you look at their last season, they started hot, but when Lebron got injured, they fell down on the rankings and then didn't make it to the playoff. And the situation right now, is that even if Lebron is playing, they are still a bad team. So I doubt that they can make the adjustment, unless they do some trade before or after the All-Star Break to somewhat change the course. And we must have to admit that Lebron is really ageing, he can't carry a team no more like he was with the Cavs, wherein he has the team in his shoulder every game. Now, it's different, he takes care of his body, but sooner or later it will show the wear and tear, and nobody can beat Father time, just saying. Exactly and that gives more reason why they should stop following Lebron James's lead because they will struggle more soon if he will be get injured and that's not far to happen this season if he will still take the lead. They cannot afford to be in that situation again because they still need his contributions but this time AD should be the lead and not him as their situation now is somehow different from their situation last season where WB is not that reliable and shooting bricks, unlike this season that he is getting better and better. |

A few days ago, Elon Musk responded to a friend's tweet saying that the price of BTC may increase by the end of winter. He also asked everyone to be patient. It means that the future of BTCL is very bright and its price will increase. We are all waiting for this winter to end and the market to return to its previous form. InshaAllah the price of BTC and digital currency will return to the previous room thanks
Elon Musk is not that actually different to those people who claimed or called themselves crypto expert who keeps on saying that bitcoin will be like this and like that in specific time, it's just a plain speculation that bitcoin will recover in that timetable like everybody else was saying. Even us can speculate about the market's situation but nobody can really predict the exact date when will it start. Let's just be patient rather than hoping in such things that might not happen soon enough. |

Tomorrow we have 8 games in total, so a lot of matches that we can either pre game or live betting. Haven't check it though, but definitely I will try to slip 1 or 2 bets again.
Live betting is the best if you have time watching the game, but if not, you can bet now and just watch the highlights, it's still fun though. Anyway, here are my early picks. Warriors -10. I think they will have their first road win and they will cover the spread against a weak Houston Rockets team. Phoenix Suns -6. they will bounce back from a loss against the Jazz, so most likely they will win with a huge margin. Good call on the Suns, they won double digit, surprised though that the game is very early on our time. I will skip the Warriors for now mate, I'm still hurting on them not winning that ruined my parlay hhehehe. I know that there are a lot of controversies surrounding the Nets with the Irving drama, but report says that he is back against the Memphis so this is the first time that I will be backing them up at -7.5. Ja Morant is in question in tonight's game. Thanks mate! It seems that the -10 of the Warriors is a bit too high even if they are just against the Rockets. It's evident that they are only working more on offense without any tough defense, we can see it on their stats, only few rebounds and that might be the reason why the Rockets was not really struggling to chase them to get a close game. Tomorrow is a much tougher game, they are up against the New Orleans Pelicans. I'll be skipping this one, hard to predict because Klay is still on/off. |

Its true that once a boxer do suffer out some losses then is really that losing its value and interest.Nothing goes much better of seeing a boxer which is undefeated, although staying up on the current division on which he's been dominating is much more better. I agree that the value of a boxer will diminish if he losses but I believe the boxer's popularity can easily recover if he beats a more dominating boxer. After all, it is normal in boxing to lose, there are only 1 guy that retried with an unblemished record. Again regarding on staying on the division, it is still depending on the situation of the boxer. For example, Inoue is dominating his weight division but later he has problem meeting the required maximum weight, so he has to move up in order to maintain a 100% condition during the fight. The value will recover if that specific boxer will defeat a much more dominating boxer or defeat him in his own division but that won't come easy because that same boxer will have to be patient first before he can reach that stage where he can redeem his value or much higher than that. Also, it is every boxer's dream is to maintain their undefeated status while also cement their legacy and there's just few boxers who did that until they retire. As for this one, Inoue will have to risk his record in-order to gain because he won't be growing if he will always stay in his comfortable division. |

Not surprising because many people believed that Thurman cannot make any difference at this point while Spence's still on his peak, I'm not saying that Thurman is already old because their gap is only a year, but people will still believe that he doesn't have that skillset to defeat the 3-belt champion and that excludes me because I believe that Thurman is not yet done.
I understand your point though because Thurman, even rested for almost 31 months, still showed dominance against Mario Barrios and the final score given is really that gap. Although Barrios can't be compared with Spence, that means that Thurman still has it. However, Spence's previous winnings via Decision are all landslide wins and the scores tell it all. It means no one from those opponents gives Spence a hard time even coming from a deadly car crash. Can't choose between them but I just hope that Thurman can at least give Spence a tough and close fight. Yes, he rested for more than 2 years, I even thought that he already gave his career up because he was not in the radar for such a long time with no rumors or everything about him. Just plain no sign of him, maybe he took that huge time to reflect what he could've done but anyway, the thing is that he's back now and already gave a message after he defeated Barrios impressively. Now, he will fight a champion again, let's just hope that Thurman can fulfill the hopes we gave him or at least put up a good fight for Spence. And for betting, can't really decide whom I'll bet soon but I'm already expecting that Spence will be the favorite while Thurman is the underdog. Yes but the spread might not be that far knowing that Thurman can upset Spence, still tough to decide since both fighters are still on their prime and the mission of keep winning is what they wanted to established, for Spence his no loss record is very important while for Thurman the belts that Spence is currently holding some of it should his if he only avoid that knock down from Pacquiao he can win that fight as he recover and almost take it from Pacquiao. Interesting fight for boxing fans, both fighters can impress with solid combinations. I don't have any doubts on that, I'm sure this will be an entertaining fight that I wouldn't want to miss. Hopefully this will be finalized as soon as possible because we already got robbed by a supposed-to-happen fight, I hope this will push through. Thurman has finally got his chance to redeem the glory back but it will be a tough fight because Spence won't be handing him the belt that easily, especially now that this is fight is a bit personal to Spence. |

Without their former coach they are still a better team, in fact, they get better now IMO, and that's probably due to their finals experience. On the opposite side, we have the Warriors struggling despite their good performance in the past NBA FInals.
In this case, the talent is in the team players themselves and maybe the new coach just made some simple changes in order for the players to still do the things that made them contenders the last season and with the current best record in the league, they are really working and might gonna be still the Eastern Conference representative in the NBA finals. With their next home games, I'm sure they will gonna improve their ranks once more and probably hold their records until the end of the season if no injuries will push them to the sideline for more than 2 weeks. Their coach duty now is to guide them whenever they needed it and works as an extra pair of eyes and brain to let them know what they should do in between time outs, the rest are on the players as they are now more experienced than the last season and that is probably why they are now leading on ECF. Their next game is still on the road versus the Bulls, if they will win this one which by the way have a high chance because the bulls are still chaotic righg now and sits below .400 pct. If that happens, they will break the Bucks win streak this season. |

The market is so volatile. It's difficult to interpret whether Bitcoin will repeat history. We should also have other alternatives for investment. Have you heard about Streamr bounty? The volatility of the market also affects that streamr bounty or whatever that is, it doesn't give any special treatment or exemption to any coin and do you really expect that it will grow if bitcoin will be more difficult in the future? Bitcoin has been difficult to interpret since it surfaced and created, but it is still the most sought after coin of all time because most investors undoubtedly know that bitcoin will repeat its history, as always. |

Every bear market leads to the death of shit coins and with the current saga combine with the bear market more will follow suit.
Actually bearish market do affect any coins in the market depending the potentiality of the coin, so many of shitcoins give off during a bearish market, but sometimes not some do give off, because of the investors who are on queue investing such particular coins, so i will agree with your suggestion and in same vain make you to understand that fews coins do survive via bearish market. That is why bear season is important because it will eliminate any insignificant and worthless coins in the market that will just confuse the investors and potential investors in the crypto market, just think of it as a useful season to get things sorted for you so that you won't be wasting your funds in coins that doesn't have any utility. Along with the elimination of shitty worthless coins, valuable coins on the other hand will rise and remain until the the bullish season will come. |
