221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: June 04, 2021, 06:24:48 PM
I'm thinking if Logan beat Mayweather and then Manny Pacquiao beat Spence, then the majority of boxing experts will consider Manny Pacquiao as the greatest boxer of all time and he will be unopposed with his claim as the greatest, the two coming fights of the two greatest will somewhat create an impact on their legacy.
Suppose Logan Paul is able to land a lucky punch and win the bout that does not mean anything as they are doing an exhibition bout and Logan Paul is much heavier and yet they are doing that for the money and Floyd Mayweather is 44 years old and no one is going to change the claims about the greatest boxer debate with this fight.

Both are legends of the sports and they created interest in the lower weight division and you should accept what they did for the sport.

Majority of Indians ignored the virus once the initial lockdowns ended last year and hosted marriages, religious festivals etc and screwed themselves by helping the virus mutate and cause a deadly second wave of infections.
This is true, many were ignoring the warnings and the government is a big culprit as well as they need to make sure everyone understand the seriousness of the situation rather than giving out signs that the virus can be avoided by pseudo science like eating cow dung and cow urine.

The worst part is that some people who followed all precaution protocols properly got affected badly because of these imbeciles. Fault lies on both the government and the people who failed to follow the precaution protocols effectively.
Government had no idea about the second wave and they did not take any precautions and if you have a government who does not have any idea about the situation how will the people take anything seriously and majority are illiterate.

The government will react very negatively of the BCCI try to avoid taxes on a regular basis. And it was partly due to the pressure from the government that they actually decided to stage the IPL 2021 in India.  
The board will not fight against the government and will follow whatever they say. The only reason i think the IPL was not shifted when the second wave started is because the government wanted to conduct the IPL in India itself.

I would not be fun watch the WTC final without all these big players. This final is a big event and England should be serious in competing it.  They can't rest the players only because they think Ashes is more important to them.  Sad
At the moment, NZ will be very happy and confident to win the title.
For your information the WTC final is played between India and New Zealand and both the teams will be competing with the best team available.
 
There is a suggestion by many that the WTC finals should be played in a three Test match format and hopefully we will see that in the future.

Devon Conway made his debut for New Zealand and scored a double century and the WTC finals is going to be a battle.

We now have successfully launched the first ever DOGE-based liquidity pool in BSC/ETH, creating a genuine doge-backed token! This is an important first step to our journey to create a Doge-based DEX which will route all transactions through wrapped Doge.
Good luck with your plans and good luck in taking advantage of the Doge hype as these meme coins are getting huge investments and you never know when you will hit that jackpot  Cheesy.

And why is team incognito? Because when exitscam happens no one should know the face? I don't think that's a good sign and therefore no trust can be gained from community
incognito worked earlier when the cryptocurrency market was in its inception but now a days you need to be transparent for the project to be successful and hiding will not work in any way. It is clear that the team is looking to have fun and they are having a good time. Grin

So something that came out of left field, did anyone see that Rockhold is training with Jason Parillo and with Bisping? Smiley Bisping is not training actively anymore, but he is still there when Bisping is. The comments on Bispings Instagram post about Rockhold glass chin are hilarious. What's next, Khabib and Conor going on vacation together? Can't wait for those photos.
Michael Bisping is a really cool person and he is usually friendly if you are not his opponent and Luke Rockhold is now training in his gym and with Michael Bisping retired there is no point in having that heat and there are videos of them together joking around but the situation with Khabib is different, he does have a group of individuals who he considered as family and there is no way Khabib and Conor are going to be friends  Cheesy.

BCCI should be responsible as they were in charge of everything and they should make sure everything is running smoothly. 
There was a major change in the IPL leadership during that period when the creator was facing corruption and other charges and the BCCI withdrew the teams rights to be in the IPL but the owners went to court and won a case against he BCCI as far as i know and they are yet to compensate them for the loss.
Even i would agree that BCCI is responsible for the mess.
228  Local / India / Re: Vitalik Just Donated $1 Billion Worth of Shiba Inu to India Covid Relief on: May 24, 2021, 11:51:45 PM
Its almost $1Billion in value, however the realized value will be low hundreds(millions). Amazed to see the power of crypto and atleast some positive impact on this world. Hopefully senior members of this community can ensure that those funds do get cashed out and be honestly used towards Covid Relief.
How to monitor those funds, none of the funds the central government is getting are transparent and there is no audit possible and they received huge amount of money and we have no idea what it is used for and if they use half of what is received as donation in a proper way the issues we saw never would have happened.

Yes, this was a great move by Vitalik Buterin. In a country that is on the verge of imposing crypto ban, such contributions from the crypto community should be considered while passing the laws.

I would consider it a win, even if Indian Government decides to regulate crypto rather than banning it.
Donate those funds to any temples or statues they are building and the government might reconsider their views on cryptocurrency Tongue.

China bans bitcoin again in 2021.
Another fud in the bull run.  Angry
That is what i did not understand when the market started its major correction yesterday, i was confused and was checking all the telegram channels and news site to understand what is going on to have a major correction and everyone was talking about the ban from China and i was confused as i thought they already banned Bitcoin a few years ago and why would they announce that again.
FUD played a major role and so is the reason the Bitcoin market recovered fast and anyone who invested made a good profit.
231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !! on: May 18, 2021, 11:59:45 PM
According to Frank Warren (promoter of Tyson Fury) Wilder is in a very good position to stop the Fury vs Joshua fight.

Eddie Hearn (promoter of Anthony Joshua) said the Fury vs Joshua fight not go ahead.

Tyson Fury said Wilder is demanding $28 million to stand aside, he wrote on social media: "Asked for 20 million to move over #joker. "Looks like I have to crack his skull again." (£20 million is around $28 million)
So there is a huge development in the situation, $28 million to stand aside and it is a huge amount of money. So all the hype and the fight fans are waiting for is the fight between Tyson Fury and Antony Joshua and their promoters were teasing the match up for a long time and here comes Wilder in the middle with the arbitrary and demanding huge amount.

So will we be seeing Wilder Fury before any other fight or will they continue with Joshua Undecided.

I would not say that it is impossible but it is going to be something very difficult to do, everyone saw Fury winning both fights and even if the first fight was officially a tie we know who won that fight and this was clearly demonstrated on the second fight, this is why I thought it was a good idea to fight Joshua first, we could have two fights against Joshua and maybe a mandatory defense and this would allow Wilder long enough time to try to improve and if the fans saw that then this could have been good enough to hype a third fight.
A trilogy at a later time could create interest if Tyson Fury and Wilder fights again but for that Wilder needs to win a few fights with impressive fashion and then Tyson Fury has to maintain his record to make that fight interesting. I am hoping Tyson Fury to dominate and win the fight against Joshua as he is a completely changed man after returning as he is training on a daily basis and he is mentally tough inside the ring.

Here is another announcement from boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, a short while ago he said Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury will fight in Saudi Arabia on 14th August 2021 in a stadium that "will shock the world". Will this be a real announcement or another failed attempt at another promotional stunt from Hearn.
That is the date Hearn said but it is not official yet.
235  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will ETH surge to $6K this week? on: May 13, 2021, 08:19:33 PM
Well, everyone can now say thank you to Elon because not only did BTC drop over 10%,,, it seems even ETH has lost almost as much and is now struggling to keep above $4000. I guess the markets are no longer as interrelated as before but when crypto drops because of BTC, it is very hard to avoid altcoins also dropping.
It looks like the entire market was waiting for a news like this, Elon Musk talked about the huge amount of energy used to mine the coins and it was a catalyst for the entire market to go down as if only POW coins exist in the market  Cheesy.
If not for his green energy stand we could have seen the ETH price crossing $5000 this week as the momentum was really in favor and now it might take weeks or month to see a recovery.
236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I swap my BTC to altcoins and hold for better benefits? on: May 13, 2021, 07:19:24 PM
If you take a closer look at the Bitcoin chart, you can see that Bitcoin has always had longer sideways movements in its history. Especially after a strong price increase. It's the same this time.
Of course, you can now switch to altcoins now, but the separation between good and bad altcoins is just beginning, so you have to choose the right altcoin to really take a profit. Bitcoin will make its next push sooner or later, probably towards 100k. That's why most Bitcoin investors have always been right to sit out such phases and not trade in other coins.
There was a time when we used to switch over from Bitcoin to other altcoins after the rally subsides but this time around the entire market rallied and some of the altcoins reached levels which i never thought was possible in a short period and even the meme coins rallied baffling everyone and hence there is no point in switching to another alt and the general expectation is that we will see one more rally in Bitcoin before the major correction just like you mentioned but i am not sure whether we will reach your target but still expect one last rally before the correction.

I will not prefer an additional team from Maharashtra. They already have Mumbai Indians. IPL need to represent all Indians. So when there is a team from Mumbai, I don't think that another one should be permitted in Pune.
IPL is not created to represent every state and anyone willing to spend around 1500 crore can own a team in the IPL. We already had a team from Pune and if they are adding another team they will be included if there are enough bidders.

Also, Gujarat and Rajashthan should be merged into one team. If there are two teams for these two states then it will result in over-representation. I have the same opinion regarding Kerala as well. South Indian states are over-represented right now. Why no one wants a team from the Northeast? Being a resident of Tripura (and born in Mizoram), I would love to see a team from either Assam, Tripura or Meghalaya.
If you have the money and the facilities to conduct the matches you can bid in the upcoming bid for teams, you can even create a consortium and bid for the team and the major factor that the BCCI is looking for is the infrastructure to play matches in an International stadium and if these things are met you will get a team from your area.

South India is diverse and there is no over representation in the IPL as every state is different from each other from the food we eat to the culture and the language and that is the beauty of India and hence there is no point in talking about over representation, money talks and it is as simply as that. 
238  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: End of memecoin season by Vitalik Buterin or not? on: May 13, 2021, 03:34:13 PM
These situation arises when someone is holding coins which they did not invest. I guess all these coins came to his holding because of the fork or something similar as i do not believe that he is going to invest in meme coins and it is not a big surprise that he is dumping the coins he is holding and since he is holding huge number of coins it will affect the market and we might see the end of meme coins rally this season.
239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 13, 2021, 01:44:49 PM
Yes, it's likely to happen but what states are going to be included? Does anyone have an idea about it?
Pune will be a strong contender and then Gujarat might get a team and it would be great if we have a team from Kerala as well.

If I am not wrong once IPL hosted with 9 teams which includes Kerala but they never appeared anymore.
Team Kochi was banned because the team failed to provide the bank guarantee and there was a legal battle and the team owners won the case and BCCI was asked to pay over 500 crore INR but no idea whether it is settled or not. If more teams are added there is a possibility that Kochi will get a team if the BCCI did not pay that settlement. 

Sacking Kohli is not the solution, appointing strong selectors seems right solution to me. If BCCI wants to solve this situation for good (although according to them its not a big issue, or there is virtually no problem in the current system) then everyone/majority of em need to be strong enough to stand against the bullying which Virat does sometimes.
The pool of players India has is appreciated by all the experts around the globe and every selectors and the captain will have their politics on which members needed to be in the team. This is nothing new and it is been followed for decades and it will continue like that in the future
240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Cricket Match-Fixing Scandal on: May 13, 2021, 11:32:37 AM
Match fixing is not a big surprise and we know that it is happening and we will only come to know about the specifics of that only when we see these sort of revelations comes out or as part of investigative journalism. The Pakistan fixing situation came to light which implicated Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir for spot fixing when the mobile phone was given for repairing and the service person found these chat messages detailing the specifics of the fix and that is how they were able to prosecute them, we are yet to hear anyone in the match you mentioned getting prosecuted yet and this is the first time i am hearing about these specific matches.
