and he only wants to fight Stipe who in his last fight was brutally KOd and then retired. probably not wanting to fight anymore but because the offer is huge to refuse, Stipe might just bite. Dana will not likely make him fight Tom.

If Tom manages to defend his interim belt against Curtis at the UFC 304, which he most likely will, his popularity will grow even more. Jones is already taking a lot of critique for pushing to fight Stipe instead of Tom, so if he was to announce his retirement after that fight, it would be widely seen as an act of cowardice, escaping from the most worthy opponent. If he cares about his "legacy", that would be a stupid move.
Looking at things money-wise, it makes sense for Jones to wait till Tom is hyped up to the maximum and then take that fight, which could turn out to be one of the biggest in terms of revenue.

(...) this is base on PM leaked by someone that he talked with in twitter https://twitter.com/SpinninBackfist/status/1791709220854812952 (...)

No way this is real 
If it is, it's not really a leaked convo, he just dm'd a guy who hated on him, so he was probably trolling. Or maybe I'm giving him too much credit... I don't know.

Anyhow, here's Paolo Costa with a piece of financial advice:

The final round was quite predictable, but not going to lie, I' was a bit surprised by the consistent win streaks of both top teams in the final stages.
Winning streaks of 6 for Arsenal and 9 for Man City were, statistically speaking, quite unlikely to happen in such a strong league. I was expecting them to show some season fatigue, similar to Liverpool, who were hanging in there for a long time, but couldn't withstand the pressure and dropped out of the title race.
Both teams can be proud of their performance, sadly, the winner could be only one.

I don't know if there's any official boxing rule saying that a boxer needs to drop to the ground (or kneel etc) before he can be considered knocked down and the counting can begin, but if it's up for the referee to decide, then I see no controversy re the round 9 situation.
Tyson was in trouble but he was conscious, so stopping the fight would be completely wrong, and I don't think Fury would necessarily be KO'd cold if the referee didn't step in. Anything could've happened, but, to me, it looked like Fury was about to drop on his knee before he noticed the ref got between himself and Usyk.
This doesn't matter though, as Usyk has still won, and during the post-fight interview, he wasn't bothered by the situation at all.
I haven't seen the full fight yet, only the extensive highlights, but think Usyk won fair and square. The rematch should be really exciting.

I already made my bet for Fury to win by decision here. ML is also a great bet, but Fury by decision is 3.x.

And so this is going to be historic fight for boxing fans as this is a unification fight and for sure we doesn't want to miss this big fight. And it looks like Fury was lighter than usual, meaning he wants more movement and will try to outbox as much as he can Usyk.

So goodluck to anyone here.

Yup, Fury clearly took this fight seriously and was really focussed on diet and cutting down his weight.
As I can see this fight going either way, I made a small bet an a draw at odds of x12.50
If the fight is really close, the judges might be hesitant to give it to any of them, knowing how much is at stake. And I hear they have a contracted option for a rematch.

A history was made today. I believe this is the first time a club ended the season without a single loss. Well done to Leverkusen.
Stuttgart also had a good day, they defeated Monchengladbach easily 4-0 and overtook Bayern for the 2nd place.

But the biggest winner of the final round was Union Berlin, who won 2-1 against Freiburg after a tough game and managed to escape the relegation only by better goal difference than Bochum. The winning goal for Union was scored in the 2nd minute of the additional time, so there must have been a proper drama there.

Not sure Arsenal will win the trophy this season because Manchester City will defend their title a little longer, even if that mistake won't be fatal, until they lose to West Ham, this club's last few games haven't been very good, so Manchester City will find it easier to take it.

Betting on Arsenal to win the league at this stage means you're most likely to lose. But then again, the odds of x10.00 are quite attractive to bet some pocket change on it, a small enough amount that you won't feel much difference if it's gone.

Man City is a huge favourite, but, looking from a slightly different angle, and assuming West Ham will care about winning at all (just for the glory), it might not be as easy game as many expect it to bee.
First of all, West Ham know how desperate Man City is for the 3 points, so they'll probably start very defensively and will be focussed on just stealing time. As each passing minute of a goalless game will make the City more stressed and desperate, the risk of them making mistakes or overcommitting to attack will increase, potentially opening situations for counterstrikes for West Ham.

Anyhow, I think the odds for the City to win the game or the league are so low that it's not worth it. From a purely gambling perspective, I think it makes more sense to make a small bet on them not winning. But I wish they succeed, so won't be doing that.

ps. it would be hilarious if Man City didn't win against West Ham but Arsenal also failed against Everton.
