Ok let's hear the opinion of Shakur Stevenson, he will have his fight at 135 lbs later and this is his take in this fight.


https://www.boxingscene.com/shakur-stevenson-believe-ryan-garcia-iq-beat-tank--173482

So another fighter in the books who think that the odds are correct and it should be in favor of Davis because he believes that Ryan doesn't have the ring IQ and one dimensional and he blatantly attack and says that everything that Ryan got at this point of his career is like spoon feed for him but Golden Boy. Not sure what will be Ryan's response here, (I haven't seen one), but for sure he will not take this lightly and could be very well replied through his official and verified twitter account hehehe.

^^ Yeah, I think he can clean up that division and won all the belts, might be good challenge for him with the likes of O'Shaquie Foster or Hector Luis Garcia (which Tank Davis beat) and Emanuel Navarrete. It's going to be a good fight for him at 130 lbs and then beat those name above. But I guess it's the right division for him to move to 135 lbs, no business for him to stay when his body is saying otherwise.

Now he is on a different weight class, no need to cut that weight that hard, and he can train as hard as anyone without thinking of foods that he will need to eat or go into his system. So good choice for him. And in this fight, it's tune up as we have seen, maybe just trying to get a feel on his power and speed so this is still a test for him, could be sparring for some, but for sure his trainer is going to look at it very closely in tapes and see how Shakur performed at Lightweight for the first time as there could be somethings that he could improved to stay with the best like Haney and Loma.

True, we don't want to see this happened to athletes specially like Inoue who is still in his prime and already a star in his own right. Luckily, he has the same injury as like the best of the boxers, recently Canelo Alvarez also had to go to a surgery to fix the bone in his knuckles. But there could be worst injuries for a boxers like health issues that could lead them to not fight at all, or even some who suffered from mental issues too.

So there's a lot from this athletes, we think that they are super human because of Inoue's punching power, but it has a caveat, that is, the whole hand is not taking those power very lightly and sooner it's going to break. The good thing is that it's not that serious as it may seem and as I have posted the fight will go on July.

This is also want I suspected in the beginning, maybe he is being sponsored by the casino that's why he is not bothered losing that kind of big money. Although we know that his salary is huge, still $1 million is $1 million.

Good marketing by the casino, whoever it is, we have seen a lot of sports athletes and celebrities being endorsed by casino now to bolstered their earning. And just a year ago, we are just talking about Twitch banning gambling for good. But look at where it is right now, there are still steamers, big one still doing their thing on Twitch.

And with his reactions, it made me believed that this is a sponsored stream.


It could be poker or other games, because you can't simply lost that big amount in money in poker in short amount of time unless he goes all in with a bad card and his bluff was called by someone.

I think he exposed himself already in the BTC market as just riding the popularity of it. When he initially announced that his company Tesla is going to buy bitcoin as a reserved, obviously it was a big news to us, as the price goes up instantly. However, in 2022, in their Q2 earnings report, it was revealed that he sold 75% of their holding. And he said that they loss their investments (because of the bear market) and that Bitcoin has a negative impact on them.

And with that, we understand that it's more of a business moved for him to sell and most likely that he is just riding the bandwagon early.

So Bitcoin investors knows what's up with Elon and so we lost "trust" on this guy. Now he is not that influential to us and everything he says with Bitcoin on it is not going to affect us. He also attack Bitcoin mining and said that it is harmful to the environment which we know is very wrong in the beginning.

And it's not that we wanted to have this bank run or bank crisis, we don't. But if that happened and it did we have seen the worst and there could be more in the next couple of months and governments will have to bail them out. If this happens then BTC will always be the logical choice for smart investors or even average joe like most of us here in the community.

Again, as I have been pointing out, the resistance level is $28,500. We really need to break that in order to go up next month. And I would say that we have a breakout run already and if it continues then it is bullish for now and might reclaim that level again and can close this month with green candle which is a strong bullish sign.

Maybe Kyrie is not a perfect fit for a Luka tandem, just hard to dissect right now, maybe Kyrie is really trying to do his best and at some point, making such errors that is detrimental to the team and that's why Luka is very frustrated because the team should be improving as they let go some of their best players in Dinwiddie and Finnie-Smith in exchange of Kyrie. And perhaps those two had the last laugh since Mavs are no longer in a good position to enter the playoff while the Nets are into 6th place.


True, Charles will be Charles, it's that want cost him his friendship with MJ, he open his mouth and talk it real, and so if Durant can't take it, then he should be quiet. But the problem is that he will not let go of this criticism and he is going out in public to response. And the thing is that they can always go back to Charles and says shut your mouth because you don't know anything as you didn't even win a ring, hehehe.

There is another article that surface recently about Canelo and what he think of David Benavidez,


https://www.boxingscene.com/canelo-open-fighting-benavidez-david-good-performance-vs-plant--173493

So now maybe he is open for a fight with Benavidez in the future. But most likely his goal is for a rematch with Bivol and if he wins it, he might go with his mandatory now or at least the interim belt holder in Benavidez. Maybe he is now impressed with David's performance against Plant which Canelo beat already. Or what another highly anticipated fight for us fans next to settle the score with the Benavidez. So we will see, I mean David just won his fight against Caleb and should be resting by now and most likely going to watch the fight of Canelo vs Ryder as well.

^^ Congrats @LogitechMouse.

Here's my bet, it was just the start of the 1st quarter when I pulled this one, when I see Giannis shooting and missing free throws, I should have bet on the handicap, but still it's a win for them, with that odds.

The game that made me nervous is the Nets against the Rockets because it was very close till the last 5 minutes of the game when the Nets suddenly play good defense and did not allow the Rockets to score.

Phoenix vs T'Wolves, still close as well and I don't know if they can cover the spread because they were just up 6 last two minutes of the game. And in the last 18 seconds, they allow a three, cutting the lead. But in the end Booker and Chris Paul made their free throws and that's enough for them to cover.

Perhaps it's just one instance wherein it was pump due to hype or some positive news about this project. I don't have anything about it, might be really solid and I also can't say about you not wanting to sell during the pump and I hope that you have learn your lessons from that x2 increase and your possible paper profit by that time and yeah, it could be good hold. Because the altcoin season is not yet here. It might take another year or so, right after the block halving. And far as history goods this is the catalyst for a massive bull run for bitcoin, so in any case, the pump will trickle down and have a domino effect on most of the altcoins, and again who knows, maybe your Quant and others in your portfolio will have a massive increased that time so keep on holding.

I don't think that it will turn the tide against casino though, maybe yeah they will go and have this on the floor, but I don't see it as the one that can beat their system. Maybe just a small percentage of this machines are going to be allowed by them, because this skill based games are a game changer as you have said. So I will estimate that it might be just 1% or even less than that the machines that they are going to allow in their casinos. The bread and matter luck base games like Slots will continue to dominate because of how big it generate and it's one of the favorite game that everyone enjoys. And not everyone can play that skill based game too in my opinion. So it won't put any dent on their business, it's just the industry is developing something new just for gaming experiences.

Yeah, doesn't make sense for the OP to share his secret techniques hehehe, and so mostly likely it's either not going to work and it's going to be a scam. So for me, nah, not going to bite on this so called prediction with 100% accuracy to win. It's obvious cheating for me and if it is found out by the gambling platform then your money is gone for sure. So just be careful for those who might fall for this trick, just saying. There's no such thing as an accurate prediction. If there is, many could have been millionaires by now.

In case you are not familiar with, we have board that totally dedicated to Bitcoin/Blockchain events: Meetups.

Ok, probably we can go back in time, first bitcoin conference:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv0SdUNcBKc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ljx4bbJrYE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRjEd8NS4Wc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI8LUrnK_GQ

Maybe some of the attendees that time bough Bitcoin and could still be holding but this time, or maybe they lost everything to Mt. Gox.

But the point is that there could be a lot of benefits by joining this conferences and meetups and you could learn a thing or two or meet someone that could be big in the Bitcoin ecosystem. You'll not never know, who you gonna bump.

As I have been saying in the last couple of weeks, $28,500 is the big resistance that we need to conquer, although there is a big jump in the price and even hitting it in the last 24 hours, it's not enough for the price to sustain it (again). It might be that the bulls are really pushing very hard to an eventual $30k this March or this is a bull trap, we will find out later. In any case the $30k barrier is just like 6% from the current price so by that percentage it's possible to achieved if there is one positive news that will boost the price in the last 24 hours. So it will take a lot of effort and money for the bulls to see the price at $30k. Nevertheless it could also be done in the first or second week or April. For now the price level that we should be looking at is $28,500 and sustain it.

Most likely it could have been Gen Z women leading the old and traditional men, who might be in stock trading for years and shift to crypto. And if this is the case then this girls are willing to take the risk big time and so they could be winning as compare to men. However, doesn't matter, I mean we all know that this market is open for everyone, even young girls or even those who are old enough but maybe they don't have that risk as compare to them. But looking at the numbers, it's just a small difference, 4% is minimal in my opinion. But if there is something that we can get out of this numbers and gender comparison, it's that crypto is here to stay and every one has equal opportunity to make money.

^^ Not really sure what do you mean by not interested, Canelo is still the cash cow of boxing, so whoever he fight next, will definitely make a lot of money. And maybe Bivol can double on what he get during their first fight as he already beat Canelo at 175. Now there is a scenario that might interested Bivol, that is to fight Canelo as his super middle weight class, which means that Canelo will have to put all his belt on the line. So the stakes are high and Bivol might not resists it because it's going to be a win-win situation for him. And if by chance he beat Canelo twice, then he will be a double belt champion at 168 lbs and his 175 lbs. And Canelo wanted to get his revenge against Bivol, we totally didn't expect that he will lost to Bivol.

He will definitely trained hard and maybe look for a knockout, he needs to win impressively and send a message to the rest of the super bantamweight fighters. This is an opportunity for him to show that he still got it, can knock out his opponents. And yes, usually if you have new manager you want to show them that they are correct in picking you up. And I believed that he is still chasing that big money fight against Inoue and so he pick a Japanese manager because it's going to be an advantage for him to negotiate as both are Japanese. So good move for him to get out of MP or whoever his last manager is.

Same here, I thought that he might suit up, but not tonight, but I guess the Suns wanted to see Durant now not later as they still need to win games before the playoff. And it's another tough win who wanted to go to the playoff, the Timberwolves. They are in a 4 game winning streak, KAT and Naz Reid which is the big surprised for them in the last 5 games, plus they still have another big men in Gobert, so Ayton and Biyombo will have their hands full against those guys. But the big difference could be Durant if he play in this game, so adding him to the mix against the Timberwolves, it's going to be big. I'm going to watch and this game and most likely going to bet on the Suns at home.

As for the big Warriors win, that is the Warriors that we all know, they have the championship DNA and can come back from big deficit and snatch that win, specially in their very own Chase arena. Steph Curry, still playing at MVP levels again.

The fight might pushed for another date as there was another setback, Ortiz is now injured,


https://www.boxingscene.com/vergil-ortiz-falls-ill-wba-title-fight-versus-eimantas-stanionis-postponed-again--173465

So not sure if we are going to see this great fight though. We don't know what this undisclosed illness is, but prior to that Ortiz was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis. It's a form or medical condition wherein the dead muscles are releasing toxins to his liver and kidneys.

And there is rumor that this undisclosed illness could be related to Peds or the cycle or recycle of it, again it's just a rumor and no one can confirm it.

Yeah, pretty much that is the order of listing here in the community. You can have to see that Soccer could be the most discussed sports because there are a lot of members who love that sports and most likely betting on it. I'm a big NBA fan so yes, this could be in the second spot. I know cricket but I haven't bet on it, but I see it's popular amongst West Indies countries like Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. For UFC, it has gain some traction as well in the last 10 years or so and it could be as exciting as boxing for me.
