Top Performing Boxers in 2022

0

Boxing has evolved with time and boxers these days have a lot of tools to analyze their opponent before any major fight. Boxing in 2022 is much different than what it was during the last century. While die-hard boxing fans can continue arguing about who is currently the best, Anthony Joshua, Canelo Alvarez, Oleksandr Usyk, Vasiliy Lomachenko and Artur Beterbiev showcase impressive skills in the ring.

Muhammad Ali was nicknamed “The Greatest” because he had an amazing footwork, combined with agility and speed. Ali was really quick in the ring and he had amazing stamina. Ali was a heavyweight boxer who moved like a lightweight. In most of the fights, Ali would still be jumping around in the later rounds and this show of agility can very easily beat the confidence of the opponent.

Boxing fans can enjoy the major matches on TV or online streaming services and check out the detailed analysis, boxing predictions tonight and after-match performance reviews by experts from BETUS TV. Fans keep themselves updated with the latest news about their favorite boxers. Let us have a look at strong contenders in the ring and how much they earn per year.

Top Performing Boxers in 2022

Anthony Joshua: The British professional boxer is in his top form at 32 years of age. Joshua has been World Heavyweight Champion twice. After turning professional in 2013, Joshua has not looked back. Among his impressive fights are Anthony Joshua vs. Gary Cornish, vs. Dillian Whyte, vs. Dominic Breazeale, vs. Wladimir Klitschko, vs. Kubrat Pulev and vs. Oleksandr Usyk.

Oleksandr Usyk: Since his professional debut in November 2013 when Usyk won over Mexican fighter Felipe Romero in a fifth-round knockout, he has been steadily gaining fan base. Usyk is highly consistent in his ring performance. He has been successful in both Cruiserweight and Heavyweight categories and has simultaneously held the WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO titles. Ukraine has a culture of boxing and we have seen many iconic boxers from Ukraine.

Canelo Alvarez: The Mexican professional boxing star has been winning hearts with his impressive performance since he turned professional at very young age of 15. He has been ranked as the best active super middleweight by ESPN, BoxRec and The Ring. Alvarez is an excellent counterpuncher and with his fast moves in the ring, he can easily avoid punches from opponents.

Vasiliy Lomachenko: Lomachenko isn’t just another Ukrainian boxer. He has held World Championship in three weight classes. Lomachenko is popular among boxing fans for his amazing footwork, hand speed, timing and accuracy. Even during stressful fights, he remains in control. He has won two Olympics Gold Medals in addition to European Championships.

It is important to know the strengths and weaknesses of both players in order to predict the outcome of a fight. While many sports fans just go with their gut feeling to predict outcomes of a fight, it is always advisable to track the performance and form of a fighter. Boxing fans can also have a look at boxing predictions by boxing experts to get a better idea of which boxer has higher chances of winning.

Post-Pandemic World will be Much Different

0

In March 2020, no one would have expected that COVID-19 pandemic would lead to complete lockdowns and bring a major change in attitude of people. The way we work, communicate, travel, and interact with others has changed after COVID-19. The pandemic is possibly behind us as majority of people have been vaccinated but health experts predict that there can be additional waves of COVID-19 infections. But, the world is much better prepared now to deal with these waves compared to March 2020. The change in lifestyle and work culture has been fueled by increased use of online services.

Video Communication and Technology Goes Mainstream

Communication has changed after COVID-19. People are now comfortable using video conferencing applications like ZOOM, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace and Webex Meetings. Video conferencing technologies were mostly used by corporate world but COVID-19 took this service mainstream.

Education Goes Online

Online classrooms were gaining subscriber base at a slow pace before COVID-19 pandemic. But, as schools and colleges went online during pandemic, use of video conferencing became common in education sector. This will be good for remote education and online courses offered by various reputed Universities across the world.

Online Gaming and Sports Betting

Online gaming, casino games and online sports-betting have picked up pace during the lockdowns. During the pandemic, land-based casinos were closed and people shifted to online platforms. The online platforms have managed to deal with the challenge and have evolved with changing times. Live dealer online casinos offer a wonderful, immersive experience to bettors. Some seasoned bettors even feel that there is no need to go to Vegas or Macau but one can enjoy Vegas online casino on online platforms. Industry experts believe that this sector will continue on its growth path in future as well.

Video streaming and online music

Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO Go, YouTube were among the most popular video streaming services during the lockdowns. As more people work remotely, the time spent on online platforms has increased. Music services like Spotify, Apple Music and regional applications have also registered strong growth during the last two years.

Remote Workforce

Many companies had no option during pandemic but to allow their workforce to work remotely. However, latest data suggests that this trend will continue in the future as well. Many people find working remotely easy and relaxing. Certain studies conducted in Western Europe suggest that workers have better output when they are working remotely.

Fitness Applications Gain as People Turn Health Conscious

People started following fitness schedules and the trend for healthy eating has witnessed higher interest during pandemic. Considering high demand for fitness, even technology major Apple has started offering Fitness service to its consumers.

The pandemic has changed our lives in many ways. A lot of people started baking at home while they were trying to do something creative while staying at home. The use of technology in all these remote tasks has been of paramount importance. Everything we do, our smartphone or handheld devices are there. While many people lost their dear ones during pandemic and that loss can never be fulfilled, the human race has learnt many lessons in survival during the tough times. We should hope for the best and be prepared for any such calamity in the future as well.

Greytip Software plans to train 25,000 learners through greytHR Academy in 2023

  • Learning courses are available in regional languages such as Tamil, Malayalam, and Telugu
  • Academy to tie up with more than 100 colleges and offer add-on courses to students

Regarded as the No.1 HR & Payroll software for Indian businesses, greytHR has announced its plans to double the number of working professionals and students trained through its academic initiative, greytHR Academy in 2023. Having taught more than 12,500 candidates over the last 3 years, greytHR now plans to initiate a placement drive in 2022/23 and offer its client base of over 15,000+ preferential access to this talent pool.

greytHR Academy offers a wide range of HR educational topics including payroll process in India, HR operations in India like recruitment and performance management covering the entire employee life cycle, payroll statutory compliance in India, new labor codes, Income tax, and payroll processes in UAE.

The Academy also offers a certified professional program, career education program and certificate programs for HR & recruitment executives in partnership with Management & Entrepreneurship and Professional Skills Council (MEPSC) under National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), Government of India. Available for students, working professionals as well as those seeking jobs in HR roles, greytHR Academy helps them in learning concepts from a pragmatic perspective while also acquiring in-demand skills that can accelerate their career growth path.

Elucidating on the vision behind greytHR Academy, Girish Rowjee, Co-Founder & CEO, Greytip Software, added, “Armed with over 25+ years of domain experience in developing native HR and Payroll solutions for leading brands across the world, we wanted to give back to society by providing exclusive courses that are structured to meet current industry needs. With this thought process, we started greytHR Academy and are even empanelled as an Industry partner to impart HR training in joint certification with MEPSC.”

He added, “Covering HR and Payroll subjects related to the entire employee lifecycle, all e-learning modules and blended learning courses offered in conjunction with our training partners have been developed with meticulous care. We aim to expand our outreach, both through online and offline mediums, and establish greytHR Academy as the leading knowledge provider in the HR & Payroll domain going forward.”

While most of greytHR Academy’s courses are offered on their site and Udemy completely free of cost, only the blended learning courses require learners to complete a basic registration process. With 15 e-learning and 4 blended learning courses available in languages such as English, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Telugu, the course duration varies from 90 minutes to 60 hours and may spread across 5 to 30 days.

The Academy has started connecting with MBA colleges to offer career-oriented add-on courses on HR & Payroll. The academy looks at helping MBA/BBA students to enhance their employability through this academic tie-up. While there are hundreds of add-on courses for engineering graduates, not many options are available for MBA HR students to gain practical knowledge on HR operations and payroll processing. This would also help recruiting companies to deploy the fresh recruits from day one.

A flagship product of Greytip Software that was founded in 1994, greytHR launched greytHR Academy as an in-house initiative in 2019 with the objective of developing competent manpower through a range of carefully crafted courses that are available both as e-learning courses and blended learning programs with online course provider Udemy.

Roma sign Andrea Belotti as their new number 11 on a free transfer

0

Roma have confirmed the signing of Andrea Belotti on a free transfer. The former Torino captain will wear the number 11 jersey at his new club. 

His arrival was highly anticipated by the fans of the club for the last few weeks. And now, he has finally signed for the Giallorossi. The 28-year-old has signed a one-year deal with the club, who have the option to extend his deal for another two years.

Andrea Belotti signs for Roma on a free transfer 

“Roma’s progress and ambition in recent times have been clear for all to see, and both elements have had a big influence on me,” Andrea Belotti said.

“This is a club with big ambitions, with a great project and the fact that they won the Conference League last season is a sign of growth.”

“The opportunity to work with a winning coach like Mourinho will certainly give me the best energy and I can’t wait to step on the pitch for him.”

“I have a deep esteem for each of my Italian teammates and I’m sure they will help me fit in in the best possible way,” he added. 

After Paulo Dybala, Gini Wijnaldum and Nemanja Matic, Belotti becomes yet another major signing for Jose Mourinho in the transfer window. With the forward’s arrival, Roma now have one of the strongest attacks in the league and could emerge as surprise contenders for the title this season. 

The best programming languages to learn

0

If you decide to join the ranks of those who, with their own hands, create a new technological reality, there is a question of choosing the actual programming language. There are many of them, but not all of them are widely used. Moreover, most languages are outdated, but you should credit them because many of these pioneers served as the basis for modern developments. 

What are programming languages in demand these days? For example, what language is used to program roulette online game and other online entertainment? We will try to answer this question in this article.

The history of programming languages – where it all began

The first programming language in the world is considered to be the codes of operations, used on the Jacquard loom back in 1804. However, the starting point of the history of high-level programming languages is 1943-1945, when Konrad Zuse, the German inventor of the world’s first computer, undertook the task of designing Plankalkül for his next computing machine Z4.

After the release of the first electronic general-purpose digital computer ENIAC in the USA in 1946, programming languages began to appear like mushrooms after the rain. Let us mention the most important ones:

  • Fortran (1957) was the first widely used programming language to support a wide variety of computer architectures.
  • ALGOL (1958), an algorithmic language created by a joint committee of American and European scientists, served as the starting point for the development of Pascal, C, C++, and Java.
  • COBOL (1959) – the first business-oriented programming language.
  • BASIC (1964) – the first programming language designed specifically for people unfamiliar with computers and mathematics.
  • Pascal (1970) – was initially developed to teach students structural programming, one of the world’s best-known languages.
  • Smalltalk (1972) – later had a significant influence on the development of object-oriented languages: Objective-C, Java, Ruby, Python, and others.

Let us take a look at the languages that appear at the tops most often.

JavaScript

Main areas of usage

  • Web development (Frontend and Backend).
  • Development of mobile applications.
  • Creation of desktop applications.

JavaScript is incredibly popular right now. According to various studies, the majority of new projects have been written in this programming language for years. It was initially developed for the frontend and backend parts of websites in 1995. Contrary to the first impression of its name, it has nothing to do with the Java programming language.

Statistics show that 97% of web applications use JavaScript to process events directly in the user’s browser. Historically, the programming language was most commonly used for frontend. But with the advent of the powerful Node.js programming platform, it is also very much used for server-side website development.

Mobile cross-platform development is conducted by many companies using the React Native framework. A smaller but still significant market share is behind JavaScript in desktop software, thanks in large part to Electron JS. Google Chrome, Skype, Discord, and Atom, for example, have been written using this framework.

Python

Main areas of usage

  • Web development (Backend).
  • Big Data.
  • Machine Learning.

Python is now a programming language with rapidly growing popularity. It threatens to squeeze out giants like Java and C++ and take the place of the most popular language in the world. Unfortunately, all the hype surrounding Python makes you think it’s a novelty like Scala back in the day. But no, Python was created by Guido van Rossum back in 1991.

The main advantage of this high-level programming language is its simple and intuitive syntax. That’s why Python is even taught in schools. On the other hand, since it is interpreted, it is relatively slow. But even this problem can be solved with, for example, Cython – an intermediate layer between Python and the programming languages C and C++.

Python is used to build the internal architecture of web applications using the Flask and Django frameworks. The latter is firmly in the top three global leaders in its direction. Python has also successfully cemented its place as the most used programming language in Machine Learning. So the neural network that processes photos on your smartphone is most likely written in this language. The same can be said about the algorithms that collect your data to show personalized ads.

Java

Main areas of usage

  • Web development (Backend).
  • Mobile application development.
  • Creation of desktop applications and computer games.
  • Embedded systems.

The language began to be developed as a tool for programming interactive TVs. It was initially called Oak, but because of a copyright conflict, it had to be renamed. The name was taken in honor of the coffee of the same name, as suggested by the official logo. The first version of Java was released in 1996.

Most of the mobile apps you see on Google Play, and the App Store are created using Java. In addition, several of the world’s most popular projects in their field are written in this programming language: the world’s most popular computer game Minecraft, as well as a search on Wikipedia.

According to estimates, about 3% of all Web site servers are built using Java. However, if you look at the largest sites in the world, the situation is quite different – of the 13 platforms with the highest traffic, 8 use Java in some way. It suggests that the programming language is prevalent in the Enterprise category – corporate development.

C and C++

Main areas of usage

  • Development, operating systems, software, and drivers.
  • Designing embedded systems.
  • Development of desktop applications and computer games.
  • Robots and microcontrollers.

C is the ancestor of many other programming languages and, without exaggeration, a legend. It appeared as far back as 1972. Its original purpose was system programming. So it’s no wonder that today a lot of OS is written in C. It includes the “big three”: macOS, Windows, and Linux. Also, the language is partly used in iOS and Android. Due to its extraordinary performance and conservatism in the consumption of system resources, C makes it possible to work in real-time almost without slowing down. And this is archival in the design of unmanned cars, smart watches, sensors, and so on. Not to mention the fact that C is not tied to any particular microprocessor or system.

If you don’t know C++, you’re not a programmer in the programming environment. That’s because this programming language does not forgive minor errors compared to many modern counterparts. For this reason, it’s challenging to learn C++ from scratch. But the salaries of C++ programmers are unusually high. The programming language was created back in 1983. It is incredibly fast because it is compilable. Only its predecessors C and Assembler are faster. Also, the language is universal – there are C++ compilers on every operating system. As a result, C++ has been very popular in game-device for the last decade. Today it occupies half of the video game market.

C#

Main areas of usage

  • Development of desktop applications and computer games.
  • Machine learning.
  • Mobile applications development.
  • Web development (Backend).

We probably wouldn’t have seen this programming language if Java was initially open source. But since Java was a closed project until 2006, Microsoft had to design its language for its development in 2000. So the company took the best of Java and added syntactic features to simplify and speed up development.

It is another programming language from the C family. It has many advantages: clean code, cross-platform, versatility, and high speed of development. Many libraries are written in it. C# fits incredibly well with the Microsoft ecosystem.

Here we go: Antony to Manchester United for €100 million agreed between clubs

0

Manchester United have reached an agreement with Ajax for the signing of Antony. The final bid accepted is worth €100 million including add-ons. The player will travel to England soon to complete the medicals and be officially presented as a new player for the Red Devils. 

The deal struck between the two clubs is worth €95 million upfront, and €5 million in add-ons. This makes the player one of the most expensive sales in the history of the Eredivisie. 

Antony to join Manchester United after long-drawn transfer saga

The Brazilian recently spoke out in an interview that he wanted to leave Ajax for months. He had communicated his desire to move on months ago, and had also told the club that he wanted to be a record sale for them. 

But, after several bids were rejected, the situation got more tumultuous which ultimately led to the interview. The contracts for the move are being prepared by the two sets of lawyers. Antony will be signing a contract with Manchester United until 2027, with the option to extend until 2028. 

The paperwork is expected to be completed today, with personal terms agreed long ago. 

Ajax are considering a return for Chelsea’s Hakim Ziyech to replace Antony this late in the transfer window. With the sale finalised, they are now planning to move fast for their former player.

0

Tripartite support – Infrastructure, Training and wellbeing will equip the athletes to bring more laurels for the country in esports 

Esports has exploded in popularity over the last few years in India. Esports (Electronic sports) is a competitive sport where esports athletes use their physical and mental abilities to compete in certain genres of video games in a virtual, electronic environment. Recently, the Indian DOTA 2 team produced a power-packed performance to clinch the bronze medal at the first-ever Commonwealth Esports Championship. The Indian Dota 2 team, comprising Moin Ejaz (captain), Ketan Goyal, Abhishek Yadav, Shubham Goli, and Vishal Vernekar, defeated New Zealand by 2-0 in a best-of-three format in Birmingham (6-7 Aug 22).

As esports is going to make its debut at the Asian Games 2022, earlier in 2018 it was there as a demonstration title when our esports athlete Tirth Mehta won a bronze medal (Hearthstone). The Asian Games 2022, originally scheduled for September this year, will now be held from September 23 to October 8, 2023. With the conclusion of the ESFI’s National Esports Championships in April 2022, India’s 18-member esports contingent for the Asian Games 2022 was finalised.

1.      FIFA22 – Charanjot Singh and Karman Singh Tikka

2.      Street Fighter V – Mayank Prajapati and Ayan Biswas

3.      Hearthstone – Shikhar Choudhary and Karthik Varma

4.      League of Legends – Captain Akshaj Shenoy, Samarth Arvind Trivedi, Mihir Ranjan, Aditya Selvaraj, Aakash Shandilya and Sanindhya Malik

5.      DOTA 2 – Captain Moin Ejaz, Krish, Abhishek Yadav, Ketan Goyal, Darshan and Shubham Goli

Before this big tournament, for India to become an Esports nation, the game needs to be recognised as a Sport and build a solid grassroots structure in the country which can result in bringing more laurels to the country in competitive gaming. The same is advocated by esports athletes and industry players:

“After winning the medal at the Commonwealth Esports championship in Birmingham, it’s high time that esports should be recognised as a sport. Esports athletes need their due recognition and support from our government and help us in providing better facilities, coaches, health physios and all other things which other sports athletes get as getting a medal for the country need proper support.” said Indian DOTA 2 team captain Moin Ejaz

“With the medal wins at Asian Games 2018 & now at Commonwealth Esports Championship, the time has come to recognize esports as a sport. The potential of Indian esports and our athletes cannot be ignored and its recognition becomes more critical before the Asian Games 2022 (scheduled next year), this will open up doors for investments & opportunities which will lead to training & skill development of our athletes. It is encouraging to see our Hon’ble Sports Minister Shri Anurag Thakur ji launching a mobile video game “Azadi Quest: Heroes of Bharat & Match3” in line with India’s celebration of Azadi Ka Amritmahotsav, following should be recognition of esports as a sport” said Mr Lokesh Suji, Director, Esports Federation of India & Vice President of the Asian Esports Federation (AESF)

Charanjot Singh, FIFA 22 athlete who will represent India in the next year’s Asian Games said “Recognising esports as a sport will help a lot. This can lead to esports having a proper framework, facilities and opportunities for everyone. This will automatically lead to the growth of the Esports industry as well. More athletes would want to join in and want to represent the country at global stages.”

“It was a big achievement for India on winning the bronze medal in Commonwealth Esports. To make the industry more aligned, there should be information shared and communication between the government and stakeholders who have been investing in the Esports Ecosystem in India and including athletes and organizations. In order to have a healthy ecosystem, young athletes should also be given education in order to learn about the legal and financial nitty-gritty of Esports apart from the basic necessities of training, financial support and mental & physical well-being.” said Rohit Jagasia, Founder & CEO of Revenant Esports

“It will definitely help the players get more exposure and all the support players need from the government and from their family itself. Getting the right infrastructure and hardware is one of the most important aspects of preparing for the Asian Games. Players will show more dedication towards the games which will definitely give us top results in upcoming games too. We are already doing so much better and this would definitely be a big step for esports athletes.” said Mayank Prajapati, Street Fighter V athlete who will represent India at Asian Games 2022 on how recognising Esports as a sport will help the esports athletes before the next year’s Asian Games.
