WAS ON RIGHT SIDE, BUT THIS MATCH WAS FIXED

Question

Alot of sketchy shit went on in the ivo/Sela match to make this match go 3 sets. They were begging people to take ivo in 3rd set. My live even locked me out w Sela up 3-0 in 2nd set breaker. I love this sport, but ALOT of these matches r manipulated.

especially these small tournaments. You never know. Sometimes big players are not motivated enough and sometimes there may be money factor.&#xA;Unless their rankings are online they dont really care.

2 shiit players playing at a 250 level event...its not fixed...its just bad tennis being played....we are all biased to what real tennis should look like because we have been spoiled when watching Roger Djoker Rafa matches...but in reality the year round tour of atp level 250s are just god awful tennis at times....plus this match had a live stream available globally so theres no way they could pull off a fix...if there wasnt a single camera on the match you could make a case for the potential of something shady happening.

Cameras has nothing do with it Packers. Fixing happens in Soccer and Cricket all the time where the sport is telecasted all over the world.

I am not saying this match is fixed, if it happens it happens prior to the game and they will do some silly mistakes like not making returns or hitting double faults or missing 1st serves etc which will change the outcome of the match.

But I agree that ATP 250s are hardly consistent level of play.

We shall agree to disagree...nicolas kickers recent suspension has alot of the top 500 ranked players scared straight knowing practically every match has a live stream camera on it.

That is fine. These 250 level events are too small to get fixed anyway. Tennis in general is not a big money sport for match fixing.

It will be very rare even if it happens like in the cases of Kicker.

[/Quote]You&#x27;re joking right? tennis is by far the most fixed sport and the lower the level the more common it becomes. Packers is right though, no top player would be dumb enough to fix like this, ivo could just tank a point in the tbs instead of a set where he gets broken to 0 twice and breaks back both times.

Dmitri knows best...all it takes is one Double fault at the most critical time and boom, the fix goes undetected...btw did you notice all of Ivo&#x27;s DFa vs DeMinaur...didnt he have sometjing like 13?????

Seemed to be part of Karlos tactics to go for the 2nd serve ace which he struggled to nail. Not sure if wind was a factor as i only caught parts of the first set live but his serving looked absolutely terrible although i&#x27;m guessing he found his rhythm to win the 2nd/3rd set.
