I'm surprised with the poll result so far.
we have 27 posters who voted for this fight and Kambasos got 51.9% of the total votes, or 14/27.
Bookies may make Haney a heavy favorite, but we posters here are bettors who see which figher offers a good value.

Mark game against Rey was huge differnce in it.Mark was the unique game towards the other player.Nearly 60 percentage of the people expecting the good fight from the Mark.Mark was just 26 and had huge body to face the other person.Some think, it take Mark to fit at 30 years.But the mental fit is needed in game.
The upcoming fight between Magsayo vs Vargas, is not a walk in the park. During his fight against Russel, was strong in the first seven rounds. But he ran out of gas. He should work on his stamina, head movement and closing the distance. From 8 round -12 rounds, Magsayo was no longer impressive. He could not take advantage, against a one arm pugilist. I have to agree with you on that, though I would support Magsayo but I can't help but notice his weakness. He has the power but he doesn't have the head movement that most great boxers do have, and his last win is not impressive, so he has a lot of convincing thing to do in this fight. |

Blackwater pick the brother of Matt Ganuelas-Rosser, I don't know the guy but I hope he'll be able to help the weak Blackwater team.
I hope he won't show that much right away, so he won't be the next target of the trade. Just kidding! But being the top pick, fans will expect something out from him, let see if the losing streak of Blackwater was already been changed after that win from Magnolia, and having a new guy who will help them from both sides. We will see more on him (Rosser) compared to the other drafted players. Blackwater needs more help, so expect more minutes for this number one pick.. If Blackwater is really a farm team, then we shouldn't be surprised if he will get traded after seasons of playing with the team. Look, Bobby Ray Parks Jr. made Blackwater a good team before, but look what happened, he was traded to TNT but only played one season because he choose to play in B-League where he would get bigger contract. |

I like to see an early KO or upset by Donaire, but I think the chance of it happening is quite low.
Well, actually if you believe that Donaire will win in this match, that kind of scenario should happen in the fight. No way Donaire will win if the fight goes to the judges' scorecard, he won't last 12 rounds having the same power he has in the early round as Inoue is faster than him, so Donaire will be exhausted. |

Well, we can expect that because PBA are looking for a good prospect, star players in the universities. A good example is Robert Bollick from UP, he has already become a star player in the PBA because he excel right away during his first season, so maybe we will see the same, and hopefully, they will be drafted in a weak teams to help them.
If I'm not wrong Robert Bolick is from San Beda of NCAA not from UP though i don't know where he go to school during his high school years. Sorry, I'm wrong, I stand corrected, I thought he was from UP. This video is the evidence, : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldYHqDpiAGASpeaking of PBA draft, looks like this year's drafting is one of the shallowest ever because many players opted out of the draft like Justine Baltazar who pulled out his draft application because he will be playing in the Japan B league. Justine Baltazar was one of those player whom Blackwater is eyeing to be their number 1 pick.
Blackwater pick the brother of Matt Ganuelas-Rosser, I don't know the guy but I hope he'll be able to help the weak Blackwater team. |

Here we go to game 7, this series is very unpredictable. just like in game 6, Giannis could end the series because they have the home court advantage but it didn't happen, they were dominated by the Celtics, so let's see if they can make a surprise in game 7. Bucks won 2 already on the road, they are a team that should not be underestimated.
Celtics and Bucks always had that chance to be actually quite good series that could go to game 7, I am glad that it did. This game will be one of the most fun game 7's that we will watch in the playoffs this year probably. yes, this series is fun to watch because it's very unpredictable, Celtics is a good team but hey lose twice already on their home court, so I cannot be too confident that they will win tomorrow, Bucks might upset them. Heat and Warriors are already up, now Warriors are waiting for Suns vs Mavs which is a shock to me, it's not as close as Celtics vs Bucks normally, Suns should be winning that game probably and they were the better team and they had a great regular season, so seeing them going to game 7 is a weird one. I expect Suns to win this, so it wouldn't be as fun as the other game 7, but if Mavs somehow wins that will make that series more entertainingly ended.
I will be able to watch the next game but not the first game because it's too early. I love the Suns though but I don't underestimate the Mavericks, so let's see which team will advance, for sure it's going to be a fun game. |

After seeing a big recovery from almost zero to $0.00675 ( https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/terra-luna/). I came here to check if you guys are considering on buying this coin, and based on what I read, looks like the majority of you think that LUNA is already dead, so I'm not gonna touch it, just watch some update and do a timely action. |

For whatever reason, the market is bearish again. However, I'm not surprised with what happened, and not so surprised that bitcoin falls back to $28k again, it's the lowest I guess. It has slightly recovered back to $30k but it's struggling to stay, so I'll probably just prepare myself for another dump in the coming days.
IIRC, it was not only $6k, but bitcoin dump to $3k after it achieved a $20k ATH.
That happened after over a year from the date bitcoin reach its ATH.
So $20k to $3k, so it's possible to see at $10k price.

This might not be related to PBA but it's still basketball in the country. UP became the champion on this recent UAAP season 84. After 34 years, they've became a champion again. Are there people here who have been tuning in on this league as well? I've just seen it on my feed so I've thought of sharing it here since it's also a league and basketball. ( https://sports.inquirer.net/462075/up-dethrones-ateneo-clinches-uaap-basketball-crown) I'm watching it, mate. Not a fan of either UP or Ateneo but I really like the former to win the championship. Ateneo is full of good and spectacular players from their coaching staff to players that's why for a change, I really like UP to advance. Actually, it's related to PBA since players from these universities are bound to end up signing as a PBA draftee. But there are reports released recently that some expected prospects skip the PBA Draftee as those received offers from overseas to play. Ateneo have everything in terms of what the team needs, though they are still the favorite to win this year's title but upset take place almost identical when UP beats them from the regular season and breaks the winning streak of Ateneo. It's been 36 long years before The Unibersidad ng Pilipinas win the title, perfect timing to bring the emotions high. Just still lingering in my ears, Cagulangan for the win!!  It's a big surprise for the crowd and the UP will claim the trophy and become a champion. And yes ateneo has the best line up when we talk about basketball they have many good players. But for now UP is the best they proved to us that they can best the top universities and strong team in terms of basketball and maybe this year UP stars player will have a chance to be drafted in PBA. Well, we can expect that because PBA are looking for a good prospect, star players in the universities. A good example is Robert Bollick from UP, he has already become a star player in the PBA because he excel right away during his first season, so maybe we will see the same, and hopefully, they will be drafted in a weak teams to help them. |

Lol so many people been riding golden state all series. Memphis covered 3 out of 4 games. +5.5 at home is crazy odds. Riding Memphis til they get booted or move on. Team is legit good and shouldn't have been underdogs in any game at home this playoffs. People overbet golden state
True, and they have a good lead in the first two quarters and the Warriors doesn't have any answer to their offensive rebound again. Jaren Jackson continue his hot streak, pacing the Memphis team with 13 points already. Only Klay Thompson is scoring for the Warriors, Poole has 0 points and Curry has only 6 points. +5.5 bet for Memphis is looking good so far. But let's see if Curry will have an amazing second half. What an unexpected game, I really thought that the Warriors would close the series today on Memphis but the Grizzlies stepped up to a whole new level. It's like they are just playing against a weaker team because the Warriors couldn't answer at all as Jackson, Bane and Jones kept on throwing threes everywhere and they managed to score 21 points each. The Warriors have forfeited the game on the 3rd quarter when they decided to sit the new big three of the GSW. Question, is this because Steve Kerr wasn't there to help the team? |

So Garcia is back on track for the 135 lbs belt, we've seen how tough Isaac Cruz, but I don't know if he has the tools to beat Garcia. Ryan will have the physical advantage in this fight and we might see him getting loose against Cruz and will test how his chin is. Tank injured his hands fighting Cruz, and he said that Isaac's head is very solid. So we will see if Garcia can break that chin of Cruz and score a knock out. The winner of this match is in line up for the winner of Haney vs Kambosos Jr. Garcia wants Cruz I'm sure he'll have it the deal is almost a done deal, the Golden Boy promotion made their intention clear that they want Isaac Cruz, I don't know what they see on Isaac Cruz but it seems they are taken him lightly, and I'm sure Cruz will be happy to challenge Garcia, this will be Garcia's toughest fight in his career, it will test his mental toughness let's see if Garcia can handle the big pressure when they face - off. It's indeed a great timing that WBO has ordered Isaac Cruz and Ryan Garcia to have some talks/agreement on the said title so that the fight will materialize soon. I'm also hoping that Ryan's camp won't turn down this fight as The Golden Boy Promotions and his camp are vocal that they want Isaac Cruz for their boy (Ryan Garcia). This will be a good fight and Garcia will indeed face a dangerous man who is so thirsty and hungry. |

Well after picking the New Jersey Net's to win it all, I am still a bit stunned that they are already out of it. I thought for certain that they would at least make the conference finals. However since they are out I've got to pick a new team to win it all so I'm definitely heading towards putting my money on the Golden State Warriors. Those guys are just too good. Steph and Klay potentially the first and second best shooters of all time, that's a lot to handle for any team.
Nobody had really expected that the Nets would be swept by the Celtics in the 1st round of eliminations, actually their closest win is only on Game 1 but on the following games is really hard to deny that Celtics really dominated the whole team because of their monstrous offense and tight defense. The GSW is a good bet but the odds now are not that juicy enough unlike when they are still in the 1st round, but yes, there is a high chance that they would be a candidate on the Finals and maybe win this season. |

The Celtics is indeed interesting to watch each game because they have that capacity to dominate even the heavy teams in the league right now and make them struggle, even if they are defeated, they will surely bounce back in the next game and correct the mistakes they did to have a must win as they cannot afford to lose a straight 2 games.
Now that they are back in Boston, the Celtics now have a higher hand when it comes to advantages while the Bucks are still undermanned. Last game, Al Horford and Jayson Tatum exploded while stating that they are not easy to defeat despite being the underdog.
I completely agree. However, I just think that the Bucks have way more experience and will likely outlast the Celtics when it comes to a 7-game series. Yes, they have a lot of talent and will be scary for years to come etc. but I think that Giannis will just be too much for them to overcome despite all the advantages that they may have. Giannis is just on a different level. No doubt about Giannis's power and experience that is really helping the team to move even if they are undermanned against a healthy team but as I looked into the previous records this series. The answers of the Celtics is much better as they continually dominate the Bucks with a huge score difference while the Buck's just barely made it. This will be a tough series, if only Middleton wasn't injury then I can really say that the Celtics won't reach this far. |

They already win one game at Memphis backyard with Ja Morant playing. And they way they should their pose last game, Grizzlies will need a lot of help, someone will have to step up and have big numbers otherwise if Curry and Thompson and Poole started hot in the first quarter. It will be hard to do catchup because the team knows very well how to protect their lead in the closing minutes.
Grizzlies are doing their best they can to have a chance to win here but they need to be more consistent with their playing and strategies because as we can see in the past games the lead is not that huge aside from a game 3, and they can get that win if they focus on the game. Better not to let the top players of Warriors to have a good game in the first half or else, their series will end now. It's also unfortunate to loss your key player, this will be a big challenge for Grizzlies to stay alive, but I think Warrios will be more serious in the next game, they want to proceed on the next round already. I think they are focus on the game, it's that the Warriors are very experience in this kind of close game. While Morant is injured, the Warriors wasn't able to get advantage because they trailed most of the game. But as I have said, their experience let them finished and take a big W. So Memphis back is against the wall and we don't know if they can response because it seems that the Warriors is eager to end the series. Memphis might still thinking the opportunity they wasted in game 4, if they won that game, they should not feel the pressure of winning the game tomorrow because they will be eliminated if they lose. Memphis is a good team, they are capable of winning even without Morant, so I think they'll play harder tomorrow, but like you said, Warriors will used their experience to close the series. It's almost too late for them because even if they have won that game, Ja Morant can't probably return and play for the rest of the series because of his injury and now I think there's just a little hope that they can survive the game later because now they are in a dangerous spot of getting eliminated in the series. |

Meanwhile in the other game, I felt so sad on what happened to Ja Morant. Even if I believe that GSW still win their series but it should've been more exciting and more playoff experience for Ja. GSW should be able to seal their series tomorrow.
For tomorrows game, there's no more excitement for me either as Ja Morant's MRI revealed a bone bruise in his right knee. I agree, I know the Warriors will still make it to the other side but this it's too unfortunate because this should be an entertaining series. So, there's no doubt they will close the series tomorrow and the first team to move on the semis. |

Do you believe that after the Mavs' victory over the Suns yesterday, it shows how weak or fragile the Phoenix team is?
I can't comment on that since, in those 2 lost games by the Suns, they didn't show their 100% performance. If only they gave their 100% and still lose, I can conclude that Dallas Mavericks are really ahead of them. Returning from home, Phoenix Suns will do everything to take the lead in this series. However, I'm with the Mavericks to win. If let's say the Suns will lose here, there will be more critics of Chris Paul about being a choker in playoffs, as always. Same here, I also cannot honestly give some opinion on if the Mavericks is really already that ahead of the Suns. The series is still tied and there's still room for the Suns to answer back and bounce back after getting defeated twice in a row. I won't deny that the Mavericks are really threatening the Suns position here but the latter team won't surely back down that easily especially for what have happened on Game 4. |

The Bucks have been pretty dominant in the paint and if that remains the case tonight, then Celtics will have to rely on their efficiency from behind the arc ?
Giannis most FGs came from the paint. Really hard to stop him even with a help defense. Because that was the case, the Celtics just need to improve their offensive phase to counter Giannis' dominance in the paint. It's like the Celtics will do much of an offense > defense but it doesn't mean they won't try to stop Giannis obviously. Well the Celtics big 4 produces huge numbers for the game 4 to win. Tatum and Horford both have 30 points and Smart and Brown 18 points apiece. Giannis another 34 point explosion in a losing effort, but they totally blew it off in the 4th as they were outscored 43-28 in that quarter. They have the lead entering the 4th quarter and I thought that they are going to win again. But thanks to Jayson and Al who get everything going for the Celtics again. Yet another plot twist in this playoffs, it looked almost for over for the Celtics after the 3rd Quarter, and Celtics were having big foul troubles, but the run to start the 4th was good, and Al Horford was really great tonight, despite early fouls too he did restrict himself for making unnecessary defensive plays. I think the Bucks felt a little bit cocky going into the 4th, and all it took was couple of possession and stop for the Celtics to build a lead to win the game. And it just shows that no lead is safe in this playoffs, we've seen Memphis did it against the Wolves, and then Warriors as well with the Memphis, a come from behind victory. I don't think that the Bucks get cocky, it's that the Celtics has a good game in the 4th quarter and the Bucks can't buy a basket. And then we have Tatum coming back in the final quarter, and rebounding from his uninspired performance in game 3. The Celtics is indeed interesting to watch each game because they have that capacity to dominate even the heavy teams in the league right now and make them struggle, even if they are defeated, they will surely bounce back in the next game and correct the mistakes they did to have a must win as they cannot afford to lose a straight 2 games. Now that they are back in Boston, the Celtics now have a higher hand when it comes to advantages while the Bucks are still undermanned. Last game, Al Horford and Jayson Tatum exploded while stating that they are not easy to defeat despite being the underdog. |

Ja Morant's possible missing tonight's game is a big disadvantage for the Memphis Grizzlies. Remember that in Game 3, they were put by the Warriors in a big margin lead prior to Morant's exiting the game because of that knee-grabbing incident. Therefore, with or without Morant, they were really struggling against the Warriors in front of the Chase Center's crowd.
With that incident, I'm not sure how the Grizzlies will cover what Morant will leave.
For some bettors, the -10 handicap seems can be easily covered by the Warriors.
Memphis played with the heart even without Morant. They almost beat the Warriors at home. If they did not miss those important FT, they were still ahead with a good margin but sad to say that they were not that confidence compared with the Warriors, Poole, Wiggins and especially Curry who buries those important FT to secure the game, they win it, but didn't cover that early handicap. And take note, the Warriors is now slacking a bit as we saw it because they know that they can really close the game in their favor especially now that there's no Ja Morant around. Also, they are playing in their home so it's really unlikely that they will miss those important shots. |

~snip~
I'm also with the speculation that the Philadelphia 76ers might even the series in tonight's game. Joel Embiid's presence really plays a big impact that's why some of his teammates awaken in their previous game. If his teammates will be like that tonight, they will manage again to freeze other Heat scorers like what they did last game. Only Jimmy Butler performed in the Heat's last game, maybe he already knows well how to deal with the Sixers as that was his former team. Embiid is indeed the most valuable piece of the team, judging the last 2 games, it is very evident how the Sixers were playing with him on the floor. I actually believe them to reach the finals and the Nets, but unfortunately the Nets was awful lol. Now that the Sixers have the momentum another win in game 5 and most probably the Sixers will advance to the CF. Without Joel Embiid, the 76ers will indeed struggle and starts to question their self confidence instead of improving and yes we have definitely saw what happened on them on the first two games without Embiid. They are literally getting bullied and even Harden himself cannot do something to atleast minimize the gap of the scores. Actually, I'm shocked that he made 30+ points last game. |

I confess that I underestimated the Dallas Mavericks and unfortunately I suffered some defeats, I believe this serves as a lesson.
The Mavericks surprised me by beating the Suns with team basketball last game. I don't think that will continue, but as far as tonight goes... I'm not expecting any surprises. I think the Warriors win easily over the Grizzlies and the Bucks should be able to take down the Celtics. Giannis himself seemed to insinuate during the last after game press conference that the refs weren't exactly calling a fair game. Most likely he'll be able to step up and take care of business tonight. Without Ja Morant at 100% though, Steph and the Warriors should be able to beat the Grizzlies by 20+ tonight. Both games on TNT.  I know they were blown out last game but I don't expect 2 in a row like that. Team is young and will be tough to win in the playoffs but 20+ is a lot even in golden state. Maybe I'm wrong but I've watched Memphis all year they are a strong team, they almost played better at times without Ja, it's like they know they can't fall back and hope he pulls it out. The whole main reason why the GSW dumped huge margins in the game 3 is to regain their self confidence and state again that they are the hot Warriors and ofcourse for Klay Thompson. But on the Game 4, I already expected that they will still win again because Ja Morant is already not around with the team and I know that they will try to slack a bit. Now it's already 3-1, I wonder if the Warriors could eliminate the Grizzlies at Memphis. |
