Casimero has to stay active if it wants to get a title shot next year. He is not getting younger as well so he better stay focused on the remaining years of his career. There are only 2 champions in the division which make it more difficult for Casimero to get a title shot. Both champions are also keen on unifying each other. The IBF is expected to issue a mandatory probably next year and hopefully, the WBC won't make their own mandatory so Casimero still has time to become a mandatory, probably by the WBO. 

Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn the former promoter of Devin Haney might make a move to take him back to DAZN mentioning the names of 140 WBC champion Regis Prograis and GBP's Ryan Garcia as potential opponents inside the network. Jack Catterall is also another fighter Matchroom signed and will surely be in the mix.

4 title fights this weekend:
Matchroom/DAZN- Featherweight champ, Mauricio Lara (26-2-19 KOs) will defend his WBA belt against Leigh Wood (26-3-16 KOs) in a rematch.
Boxxer/Sky Sports(UK)- WBO cruiser champion Lawrence Okolie (19-0-14 KOs) defends his belt against Chris Billam-Smith (17-1-12 KOs).
Top Rank-Queensberry/ESPN-BT Sport(UK)- Luis Alberto Lopez's (27-2-15 KOs) first defense of his IBF belt against Michael Conlan (18-1-9 KOs).
Golden Boy Promotions/DAZN- Minimumweight champion Melvin Jerusalem's(20-2-12 KOs) first defense of his WBO belt against Oscar Collazo (6-0-4 KOs).

Yes, Davis-Garcia reached 1.2 million PPV buys. The gross of the fight was around $130 million, that's a lot of money. But it's more on Garcia as a social media influencer and Davis being the main PPV fighter of Showtime. Both fighters are also KO artists so casual fans are more keen on watching them even if it was not a championship fight. And it's also a plus when a Latino is involved and Davis is an American.

Loma has its own fan base but is limited. Haney is undisputed and he got the skills but his low KO rate and more hugs are kinda boring, especially to those that are not hardcore boxing fans. And that ridiculous result left another bad taste in boxing. I saw a lot of comments on social media saying it's their last PPV buy of a Top Rank PPV and some even said they will stop paying PPVs in boxing and would rather shift to UFC. 

I am also surprised that Boston Celtics were able to steal a game in this series and it was at Miami's home court. Miami better not feel too overconfident here because the next game is back to Boston again and another win might bring back their confidence and hope. They need to stay sharp and focused.

I also favor Boston to win game 5 but as a fan I want Miami to close the series and not give the Nuggets a lot of days to rest. Jimmy said that they will go to Boston for game 5 with a different mindset and they will enjoy the game.

Ngannou will have a boxing tune-up this year so it's most likely a weaker opposition and someone that makes Ngannou win in an impressive fashion as much as possible. And if his dream comes true facing either Fury, Aj, or Wilder, of course, he will get destroyed.

Dana is not obsessed with Ngannou but he is well aware of the financial risks once Ngannou will have a very successful PPV event on his PFL debut. The UFC is earning a lot of money on its PPV events and this might change once its fighters will start demanding a higher share percentage. Besides, if PFL will get even with the same PPV numbers as the UFC, it will become capable of offering UFC stars with higher PPV shares.

This season's playoffs have made a lot of unexpected results in NBA history. I guess this would be the first time that the 7th and 8th seeds are able to reach each other conference's finals. And probably the first time that a team with the most undrafted players reached the finals.

I would love Miami to close their series with Boston tomorrow while at home. Miami Heat has the most difficult matches en route to the finals compared to the Nuggets. Props to coach Spoelstra for utilizing and developing well what the management can only provide to the team which has a lot of undrafted players. And to Butler's tough mentality and leadership. Miami is once again overachieving IMO.

I am a fan of both Denver and Miami and I am happy that they are now in the finals. Technically, I am favoring the Nuggets to win the series as they are the more well-rounded team and are complete. It is really worth it that Denver's management decided to send reinforcements to Jokic. 

I highly doubt that Dana will make any collaborations that have to do with Ngannou. Dana White is not at peace right now after Ngannou successfully lured the other big organizations to offer him big contracts. Dana will find peace only if Ngannou losses his boxing tune-up (unlikely) this year which means devaluing his market and of course the PPV numbers after his PFL debut which is expected to happen next year.

But even at the moment, I am hearing rumors which are normal for the remaining UFC stars with lesser contracts but are already proven with their PPV numbers. Well, actually most of UFC's champions have higher PPV numbers than Ngannou. Dana might be forced to change his style in computing PPV shares to his stars which is very very small compared to Ngannou's 50% with PFL.

Yes, Probellum already ceased to operate. But literally, it won't make Schaefer automatically free from US suspicions. Because Probellum is Schaefer himself just like Eddie Hearn has full control of his own promotion, Matchroom Boxing. So whatever connections happened, it is because of Schaefer and he is obviously facing an investigation by now.

Maybe the WBC should provide a deadline for both camps to reach a deal. Or is Sulaiman paid not to pressure Donaire's camp just like the way he babysit Errol Spence?

It's less than 3 weeks before another big showdown of Top Rank happens. It seems like I am not seeing much of the 2 in social media, but maybe I am not following enough of the boxing media nowadays. Both are arrogant fighters so they will make a trend during fight week when both are in New York. Teofimo Lopez the more popular fighter in the US seems silent while Josh said he will retire Lopez.

And it seems like Devin Haney already re-signed with Top Rank. Top Rank earlier offered Haney (win or lose to Loma) a shot at the winner of Taylor-Lopez. So it will add more motivation for both fighters to win since their next show is once again a PPV which means big money once again.

It's done already. Too late to turn back time. Garcia should have taken a tune up and maybe did not agree for rehydration clause or the get a better deal on the catchweight. Garcia and De La Hoya can focus on the present if they are to work together.

Garcia now has James as his new coach. We'll see how this goes. Maybe James can push him to train harder. But in reality Spence and Charlo have their own problems too so it's either Garcia becomes better or turn into worse.

Yes, I'd been watching already a few coins that have potentials. Filecoin, Vechain and CFX are in my watchlist and maybe I will add some more in the next few weeks.

It's good that Hongkong is determined to pursue regulating cryptocurrencies. Mainland China or the communist part pretty sure won't follow suit but many of its people will flock towards Hongkong or even in other countries. Chinese volume in crypto is still very significant despite of the ban and I expect it to further increase if Hongkong starts its own regulations.

Without a doubt I want to buy more and will continue in doing so. I actually do a monthly DCA on bitcoin and some altcoins and I already bought some for this month but it is indeed tempting to buy more for this month due to its current price which is still down and haven't recovered back to $30k. I think bitcoin is coming back to $30k next month.

By the way OP, you are in a trading board just in case you meant to hold long term. Anyways, if you are trader it's also good to buy especially bitcoin and then maybe sell it in the next upward swing, say $30k.

So how is the case going on? Did the gambler able to beat the betting company in court?

Personally, I doubt the court will reward the decision to the gambler. There's a lot reminder everywhere the importance of responsible gambling. Plus gambling is not illegal and is supposed as an entertainment hubs.

It's like obese people that consumes a lot of food regularly on fast foods and then suing them. Or a cigarette smoker who's suffering from a disease related to smoking addiction, this might have the better chances of winning in the court.

More like the IBF is unwilling to make their own official announcement on Boots' situation. But maybe it is valid that they need to wait for the WBC mandatory settled first before they can pursue their own mandate. Even though the WBC is clearly not making any sense at all.

And there's also the rival of the WBC when it comes to corruption, the WBA. Although they already have a WBA regular champion which should be an automatic mandatory to Spence, it's still able to issue an eliminator for Stanionis and Ortiz. Which literally means saving Spence or giving him more time before facing another mandatory.

It's a shame that until now we are yet to hear an announcement about the date and venue of this fight. Luckily, corrupt WBC seems to respect Donaire a lot or maybe because the legend is the biggest name in the division right now which means bigger purse and bigger sanctioning fees.

In a perfect world, the WBC will give a deadline for both camps to agree on a deal otherwise a purse bid should happen. And if Donaire is not willing to commit due to his promoter Richard Schaefer then the Thailander which was supposed to be the real opponent of Donaire should be the one to face Santiago. The Thai had a schedule last February prompting the WBC to skip him temporarily. But it seems like he is more ready for a fight in June than Donaire. And I wonder why Donaire and his team are not giving updates. Maybe to cover up his promoter's issue with the US authorities or who knows it's not just in the US but in many parts of the world that are allied with the US.

Donaire already has a limited time left in his career and then here's another obstacle. Aside from him being inactive already for a year. He should speak and tell Schaefer to let the other promotions do the job temporarily.

Which is why people still prefer big centralised exchange when trading. Most scam coins are at decentralised exchange. While there are also scam coins in centralized exchange, they are less likely to be found on bigger centralized exchange.

Also, centralized exchange like Binance and Coinbase are as much as possible to follow government rules. So they will have stricter requirements when it comes to listing new coins.

I'm annoyed at Haney for pushing Loma during the weigh in. Is he trying to become the next Mayweather? Do the villain thing by trash talking his opponents and then try to do something during face offs?

There's a big difference though between him and Mayweather. Mayweather was a KO artist before he became a defensive specialist when he kept moving up in weight and has brittled hands. That shove was probably the nearest thing Haney can do to try to put Loma down. I expect him to run, jab and hug later. Betting odds should have a 15 over or under on thr number of hugs Haney will do on Loma. I hope Loma can bring back his prime years later and teach Haney a lesson.

Lomachenko deserved his shot because he is the long time WBO mandatory. Actually, Loma is supposedly the first to fight Kambosos if not for the war in his country. Now with all the belts under Haney's waist, he needs to defend them or lose some of them if he fails to follow mandatories. Besides, even beating an old Loma makes your name more popular and credible because the resume is clearly worthy in the Hall of Fame. Teofimo, Haney, and Shakur are the next generation and are somehow proven but their resume needs more achievements for them to follow Loma's path and I even doubt all of them can enter the Hall of Fame when they retire. I did not even mention the names of Tank and Cruz, their resumes are too weak at the moment.

Shakur is most likely next. This undefeated 2 division champion and Olympic medalist will never get ignored and he showed he's got the skills and is better than Haney IMO. This fight might be Haney's last under Top Rank and his last in this division. Top Rank already offered Haney (win or lose) a shot at the winner of Josh Taylor and Teofimo Lopez. So maybe he re-signs but I won't be surprised if he returns to Matchroom especially since WBC champion Regis Prograis is already there. But still, Top Rank has too many big names in the division to offer if Haney is aiming for legacy. Matchroom though despite no other top names in the division aside from Prograis has DAZN which has the biggest money in boxing and it also has Ryan Garcia under Golden Boy Promotions.

As for the other young names like Cruz and maybe Tank as well. Tank if he stays with PBC and Showtime can continue cherry-picking and exploiting his opponents. He might only care for money and not for his legacy. Cruz meanwhile might need to transfer to the other networks if he gets the chance since PBC will continue to baby Tank and will never give him that rematch. Besides, all the belts at 135 are at Top Rank.

1. Lomachenko
2. UD
3. 0

Are they really worth comparing because both are too different from each other?

Banks are more focused on offering services to the public. Banks are more like crypto exchanges that cater to a lot of clients and earn fees thru their services. Banks offer interest on deposits and loans.

Big whales in crypto on the other hand are just huge investors and traders. And even some of these whales are directly or indirectly banks. Banks with each wide services and business ventures also have departments that take care of their investments and trades.

Well, the last time Loma fought, he was not the same fighter anymore. Was it only ring rust or he just declined? Until I can't see the Loma that beat Linares, I consider him out of his prime. I anticipate Haney as the quicker and stronger guy in this fight. I also hope Loma does not give the early rounds to Haney because that kid will be contented with his jabs throughout this entire fight and will move away or hug to avoid any risks.

Fighters aged in different ways but most of them lose their primes in their mid-30s. Conservative styles like Lennox Lewis, GGG, Bernard Hopkins, and Mayweather Jr. tend to last longer than fighters that use a lot of energy when they fight. Guys like Loma, Roy Jones, and Tyson consume a lot of energy and relied on speed so they will be in trouble once their bodies start to diminish.
