A great online casino portal

There are far too many gambling and casino sites on the net that not only look terrible but also have terrible content.  Sometimes their content is produced by reworking and rewording it from other websites and you get a lot of jibberish with this. It is like people stopped caring to make a site that features a nice design or provide something useful for the users.

That said it is our hope that one day that the people who make these websites wake up and put more care and love into their sites to make them not only worth looking at and worth sharing.

One site worth sharing is www.online-live-casinos.com

This site contains useful information and doesn't have banners blasting all over the place and in your face. All of the casino reviews have the right amount of information for you to decide if you should trust them or not.  If the casino doesn't take players from the country where you are located, the website will tell you about it and inform the users that players are accepted from your country or to inform you if they don't.  In short, this is one of the best designed gambling websites around!

They might not have too many casinos listed like other portals but they seem to focus on the quality brands worth playing at and browsing the site it is difficult to find a casino with under a 4 star rating and quick honestly, there don't seem to be any dodgy casinos listed that are complained about a lot in other player forums and complaint centers. 

This site is certainly one of the casino portals to look out for in the future. The design is great and the casino reviews are well written, highly detailed and they only focus on a small number of casinos they personally recommend. 

Megabus Toronto to Montreal complaints about the free wifi

If you are a Megabus user you can get cheap bus tickets from Toronto to Montreal with ticket prices ranging from $10 to $50. Obviously you will want to book in advance to try to find a cheap ticket but even at $25 a ticket, it is still a great deal for those that remember the days of having to use Greyhound and paying extortionate prices.

One big selling point of Megabus has been their free wifi. For a bus ride that takes maybe 6 hours in each direction whether you are going from Montreal to Toronto or Toronto to Montreal, this is a great way to pass the time.

Over 2012 and at the start of 2013 the service on megabus for their wifi appears to be deteriorating or at least, there are more complaints about the lack of service. 

On holiday seasons some of the buses were actual greyhound buses used which means you have a regular bus that does not have wifi.  Other times when replacement buses come, they are also greyhound buses and do not have wifi at all.

Most of the time you can use the wifi and sometimes it times out and disconnects. Usually at this point the router and modem needs to be restarted.  However on a few recent trips there has been no wifi available and now it seems that when the internet times out which happens about every hour, the modem and router can't be reset anymore. So if this is the case then you can't expect a trip that has wifi all the way. One employee has informed me that the modem can't be reset. The passengers seem to frown upon hearing this as they have their laptops open probably waiting to get online. 

Free wifi is certainly a luxury for the riders which makes taking the bus change from something that used to be a chore to something a little more pleasurable. But if they cannot have consistent wifi then it starts making Via Rail and Porter airlines options that are worth considering unless you have a mobile phone with unlimited data and you can tether your device so you can get online with your laptop.

Overall the experience on megabus has been pleasant except for a few trips where one of the bus drivers was constantly using his mobile phone appearing to be texting. Looking around at other passengers they shared the same concern and fear as the bus would vibrate about every 30 minutes because the driver wasn't paying attention and went out of the boundaries of the road on the pavement that has the indents that vibrate your vehicle when you drive over it.  Another few trips involve a short Asian driver whom for unknown reasons seems to always hit these parts of the road, the treads or audible highway warnings. When he drives over them he jerks the wheel hard in the opposite direction and everyone on the bus seems to have a look of fear on their face as if the bus is going to crash.  Other friends that have had this driver can verify exactly how he drives.

Despite these complaints overall Megabus is still a godsend service for those that want to travel around and not spend a ton of money. This service has probably created opportunities for people to travel between larger cities with more frequency whereas previously they would have refrained due to the excessive costs involved. For a trip from Toronto to Montreal you can pay $10 on megabus, pay $100 to $200 with Porter airlines, $50 to $150 on via rail, or drive and spend up to $80 on gas. At least you can do work, sleep or go online with megabus or via rail.

You can visit megabus.com to find schedules throughout Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe. 

Liverpool vs Fulham EPL Game

Liverpool FC were recently thrashed by Aston Villa in relatively embarassing fashion.  The Liverpool players hit the word work a few times and with the way the match was played, they should have won it but the stats at the end of the day show they lost and a score of 3-1 doesn't look good for any team no matter how good or bad you play.  This drops Liverpool down the table features in the English Premier League and Aston Villa as a result move on up at the expense of Liverpool. 

Next match:

Saturday 22nd December 2012 - 17:30

The latest odds for Liverpool against Fulham in the English Premier League shows the odds are 6 to 1 to pick Fulham FC to win against Liverpool but in the last game preview we did we know what happened, at nearly 10 to 1 payout, players that bet against Liverpool got a sweet payout and if anyone was bold enough to bet on them losing by that score, it would have been like winning a mini lottery.

If Liverpool are indeed in a funk then odds of 6 to 1 are somewhat appealing to look at. Fulham FC have a star striker in Dimitar Berbatov. Unfortunately he doesn't have the players he had to play with at Manchester United so he becomes an easier target for any team but he is still a world class striker and it would be good to bet on him to score against Liverpool. 

Of course when Luis Suarez is scoring, the team is winning. If he can't put the ball in the net against Fulham, you can expect that it will simply add more pressure to the team to not let in goals and this is type of pressure that can lead towards Liverpool questioning their confidence and losing against all sorts of teams in the EPL. Nobody knows which Liverpool team is going to show up, the one with swagger, arrogance and confidence or a good team that has gaps in their game and prone to breaking down and losing matches and points.

Barcelona FC season matchups

Barcelona FC in the 2012-2013 season are looking to dominate and make up for last season's disappointment of losing La Liga to Real Madrid and also in Champions League. Without Guardiola as the coach people didn't know what would become of Barcelona but their lineup speaks for itself: Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas, David Villa. These players alone, surround them with ordinary players and you still have one of the best club teams ever assembled.

Barcelona haven't lost a game yet this season in La Liga, or the Spanish Primera Division. They have the best start in league history and Lionel Messi is now considered the record holder for most goals in a calendar season although there is an African player that is being disputed for this record for 107 goals but Fifa is staying out of the argument. 

So which teams have a chance to taking some games away from Barcelona?

Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid is at the moment 2nd in the table fixtures over their city rival Real Madrid. Atletico are consistently a strong team despite the world acknowledging Real Madrid as the royal team or the one that spends the most money on their players. 

Get the latest betting odds on Barcelona Atletico Madrid here. 

Real Madrid

These matches are known as el clasico and they are always entertaining to watch and always heated despite half of the players teams having experience as teammates for World Cup champion and Euro cup champions Spain. These teams don't like each other and Real Madrid are used to being the top team but have their egos hurt as the world acknowledges as Barcelona as the worlds best team.

Of course the Fifa player of the year award is up between Cristiano Ronaldo, Andres Iniesta and Lionel Messi. Iniesta did take an award from Ronaldo as the european player of the year, that means he is 3rd place behind the 2 Barcelona players. 

These teams will meet a few more times during the season and the 2 Madrid teams seem like the only teams capable of taking a win against a dominant Barcelona club. Meanwhile Barcelona are going to push harder for the La Liga championship.

Meanwhile both Barcelona and Real Madrid are chasing the Champions League and it seems like these teams might get a chance to meet at some point, that would make for exciting football.

Christmas Shopping Deals

On your marks.

Get set.

Shop!

Hold on a moment!  Perhaps you might feel like shopping during this Christmas season but there are many things you should understand first.  People are going to be spending less money this year than they have done the previous year.  This means retailers are going to get hit harder.  So if you are a retailer you'd better hope you have the best products.  Now for the person doing the shopping, this means retailers have less money to compete for in the shopping economy and they'll be fighting harder to get your business. 

If you factor in all the companies that might go out of business during December as well as after Christmas, this means there are going to be some serious liquidization sales around. This means you should be frugal and try to get the maximum value for anything you spend.

Having money is nice but saving money is coming back in style. So there are many ways to stay on top of what is happening.

Join Forums and Facebook groups:

There are many communities dedicated towards saving money and sharing where great deals can be found.  Forums is perhaps the best way to stay on top of what is happening for deals.

Shop Online:

Usually shopping online means you can save more money. As long as you are not shopping for clothes which can be a little difficult. For everything else there are values to be had so enjoy.

Wait last minute:

For some people this isn't the best advice but for others, there were be last minute deals almost as good as boxing day or boxing week sales. That is retailers need to offload their inventory asap. 

If you are dealing with a major chain or corporate store, you won't be able to bargain your way down a bit but for the smaller stores you have to use your bargaining power to simply get the best deal.

Be safe this holiday season and don't get too stressed out during the shopping season. Last but not least don't forget to do something charitable this season!

What Obama means to America - 2012 Victory over Romney

Barack Obama won another election and this time won over a 'young' Mitt Romney.

Romney gave a push to try to become the new president but it isn't meant to be. Now Obama can pursue all the things he started and that was the focus of his campaign. I think at the end of the day most people didn't rust Mitt Romney and there were many global fears that America would become a closed nation that didn't care to work with their partners or neighbors.

Barack Obama had the worst situation given to him with George Bush destroying the economy but many people putting the blame on Obama. It appears to be a first time that the president that acquires an economy in recession usually doesn't get a second term but Obama had the best campaigners possible and that was enough to push them over the edge to capture a second term as President. Now what appears to be the last item in the way of having Obama getting anything done is the House vs the Senate.

In years to come political sciences will look at this marketing campaign by Obama and declare it the best ever done to date. He defied a lot of odds and kept a composure that Romney simply couldn't challenge. 

In his victory speech made to his own campaign team it has been shown repeatedly on CNN which shows the human side of Obama as he cries and delivers yet another good speech. He was just thanking the team of his young campaign staffers and he wells up and gets a great ovation.

Now it is back to work for Obama as he prepares for yet another speech on Capitol Hill. 

Lewis Hamilton joins team Mercedes

Lewis Hamilton has made the switch to Mercedes leaving behind his career with McLaren. That has caused a shift in drivers for 2013 as Sergio Perez will now replace Hamilton and right now Michael Schumacher has no seat left for 2013 but if he wants to drive he should decide soon. The only likely seat available for him is with Sauber. He could have avoided this if he had resigned with Mercedes but there is growing speculation that he will be retiring at the end of the year which probably caused Mercedes to pursue Hamilton harder.

His new teammate Nico Rosberg went to twitter to show his enthusiasm for having a quality driver like Lewis racing next to him on the same team. That will make Mercedes far more competitive, no offence Schumi. It could help Mercedes win the world constructors championship as the team could use more points and is always in the rear view mirror of Red Bull Racing and McLaren. 

Hamilton had early success in 2008 winning the world championship in the last race of the year on the very last lap in stunning fashion. Ever since he has been a real competitor in every season racking up many wins and is always in the title hunt including this year in 2012. He would most likely be winning the season at the moment if it wasn't for many errors caused by their team which resulted in a lot of lost time, dropped places and most important lost crucial points. It should be him leading this season but it is currently Fernando Alonso.

Effect of Global Food Price Hikes

Effect of Global Food Price Hikes One of the most important things which people need is food.

Most of the food that we consume came from plants. Plants need the help of both water and light in order to process photosynthesis which then convert these materials to energy and make the plants grow and produce fruits and vegetables. But this year, most of the countries experiences long hot summer. This means that the supply of water will be limited and there will be too much sunlight. These would greatly affect the production of crops. In this manner, farmers will be able to harvest smaller portion of what they have planted. In basic economy, the lesser the supply of crops, the higher the demand of food, means that price of those crops will surely soar high.

If there will be an increased in the price of the food then most likely, the one that would be surely affected were those poor people who have no capacity on buying expensive food. Since those people can’t buy their own food, then a lot of people for example those who were in Africa dies from starvation. As we can see, hunger is one of the major problems our world is facing. From this kind of problem another problem will be born such as increase of crime rate.

We are aware of what is climate change; even America has no excuse with this phenomenon. America was known to be the most powerful country and has the largest grain exporters but still they struggles from worst production shortfalls. Fortunately, World Bank made an action by meeting up each country and discuss on making their laws and policies stronger in order to protect those people which made up the country.

Without those people, a country will never be called a country. In addition, World Bank also team up with the United Nations and some non-Government organization. They focus on how the government takes action when global food price hikes. In these manners, sellers, businessmen, and merchants will be able to sell their price with respect to the proper pricing.

Fernando Alonso likely to win WDC 2012

Fernando Alonso goes into the Belgian Grand Prix not with the best chance to win but it is Jenson Button who won the pole position.  For Button to win the title he'll need to basically beat Alonso every race for the rest of the season. The RedBulls are strong but it is expected they might not finish the season as strong considering their GP wins came early in the season when they had a design advantage that was later rejected by FIA for them to fix.

During this time Alonso has only got faster and become more consistent of a driver. Perhaps Lewis Hamilton is the only driver that can really catch him but this could even be too late for him.

The fastest pit stops of the season belong to McLaren and Ferrari. At least Ferrari are the fastest on average because they don't bundle anything the way McLaren's have done all season. If McLaren cars have their act together maybe they can team up to make a push for either a world drivers championship title and also to challenge for the world constructors championship.

The odds for all of these don't look great but if you think that RBR are on the downturn and McLaren's can only go up, this looks like an easy decision to make and money in the bank for making any sort of bet like this.

Regardless of what happens for the rest of the season, the title is still up for grabs and should remain so late until the last race of the season. It will probably take until the Brazilian grand prix race to determine who wins both championship titles. 

Goal Line Technology: Finally One Step Away!

Goal Line Technology: Finally One Step Away!

With so many referee mistakes these days, more and more people stand behind the idea of the Goal Line Technology. What’s that you’d might ask? It’s simple. It will be a simple camera which will look over the goal line and it will be used to replay questionable moments, so everyone can see if the ball has crossed the line.

It’s quick, it’s accurate, it’s necessary! FIFA’s president Sepp Blatter has been against the introduction of this method for a long time, since according to his words it would get rid of the human error, which was part of the game. After World Cup 2010 and Lampard’s goal his vantage point change.

Michel Platini, the president of UEFA however, didn’t agree with this, and decided to put an extra referee on each goal line, claiming that ‘now they see everything’. After Euro 2012, and Ukraine’s equalizer that wasn’t counted, Platini was  embarrassed and his theory was proven to be wrong.
The IFAB voted unanimously, shortly after the end of Euro 2012, for the goal line technology approval. The two systems that were approved are Hawk-Eye and GoalRef.

Here’s a little bit more info on both. Hawk-Eye is a British system that you are probably already familiar with if you watch tennis or cricket. It’s pretty convenient and accurate and is already in use in other sports. It was used in football for a first time on May 16th 2012.

GoalRef is a Danish-German system, that uses magnetic sensors to track a special ball. It will be most likely used in some of the Danish Superliga matches for testing purposes on May 23rd 2012.
What’s next? More testing of both systems and hopefully an implementation in all major leagues and tournaments across the world. While many officials are still against the technology impact on football, fans grow eager to see it in use with every day.

The truth is, if you want things to be hundred percent fair, you absolutely need this. Many sports have already seen the positive impact, why can’t football?

Currently both systems mentioned above are in a second phase testing, so we might see an implementation in a major European league pretty soon. The Premier League has promised to start using it as soon as it comes live.

Meanwhile, if you are looking for place to watch over 10,000 football games per year, bet365 is the place for you. Enjoy all games from Primera Division, Serie A, Bundesliga, Eredivisie, League 1, SAS Ligaen and more right in front of your PC or mobile.

New Batman progressive slot

There is a new online slot that is around called the Dark Knight which is the theme of the new the dark knight rises movie that just launched. It is the newest Batman movie and is already a huge hit with fans around the world despite the tragic debut of the movie in Colorado.

What this slot game brings to the table is a $1M jackpot as the starting largest progressive jackpot.  There are 4 progressive jackpots in total and that is what makes this slot awesome.

 

 

The game has a starting video introduction which is made from the actual movie and it also includes some of the features of the slot game.

This slot game is worth a spin and it is certainly a lot of fun to try.  There is bonus rounds featuring Batman. The expected house edge of this slot is estimated to be 5%.  Not many casinos will allow you to play progressive slots with a bonus so you'll have to try your own luck on your own deposits and do it sans bonus. 

Out of all the DC comic based slots that have launched, this is by far the best slot they have ever produced in conjuction with Microgaming software. 

Nobody knows how large the progressive jackpot will get. It starts at a million dollars and can climb. It certainly has the potential to become one of the largest progressive jackpots in online casino history. Only time will tell if this already legandary slot can make legandary status with the largest in history. 

Online casino tips

This week we have some online casino tips courtesy of casinosreviewblog.com. We are taking some of their tips and summarizing it in this post. When it comes to online gambling most new players don't know where to start whether it is trusting certain online casinos, knowing which ones are allowed in their country for real money play, learning how to gamble and get the most out of your casino experience or simply getting value. By getting value we are referring to bonuses, vip programs, loyalty programs and just getting back something in return if you don't get lucky.

One tip from Casino Review Blog says to not rely purely on luck. This makes sense as you don't want to just drain your bankroll and chase wins because you haven't won. 

Play smart: don't let a gambling habit get the best of you. If you see any problems with your gambling play you might want to consider some self restraint and know when to stop. There are plenty of resources for this including gamblers anonymous, gamble aware and gamcare to name a few recommended organizations. 

Have a limit on how much you can spend: and don't go over that limit ever! This goes back to chasing losses trying to get a big win to make up for the money you lost. Gambling should in theory be fun so knowing when to stop is key to keeping your bankroll in tact and not letting gambling get the best of you. Yes you can't win if you don't play but if you just play all the time, the odds are against you.

Do your research: When you search in say google for online casinos you will get listings of either actual online casinos or websites that are gambling guides, also known as affiliates. These affiliates will mostly review all the online casinos and come up with their list of recommended casinos. This i a good way to ensure you are not ending up at the wrong site. You always want a trusted site to gamble with to ensure that the games are truly random and that you are paid your cashins in a timely manner.

1. Choice of sportsbook

Picking the right sportsbook is very important. Some bookies don't take players from certain countries. However the important thing for players is knowing which books pay players on time and which ones have a good level of customer support. If you have a problem with a book, you need to know they care about you as a customer.

This can make a big difference in winning as you have an extra bankroll. Some bookies offer free bets and 100% match bonuses.

Is it safe to sell diamonds online?

Maybe you have seen the commercials for selling gold and getting checks in the mail. There are now many websites and companies ready to take your orders with most of them begin legitmate with a few that maybe are not so much trustable. 

In the past year this trend is continuining. Now you can sell your silver online, through the phone and mail it out, wait and get another check in the mail. For some people that are needing some money this is something worth considering.

Now selling diamonds online is the new trend and why not. Gold and precious metals have been increasing in value over the past 5 years but diamonds are still the pinnacle for jewelery and value. The diamond business is now starting to accelerate just like gold and some might even consider diamonds a currency on it's own.

So is it safe to sell diamonds online?

Only if you have  a trusted website. It can be difficult to assess a site or company for reliability and trustability. We have tried out a few sites and we have found one where we trust and recommend that you can sell your diamonds here at wpdiamonds.com. For any site you want to do research to find out what other people have to say and they are good. We tried it ourselves and we had one diamond expert assess one of our diamonds and we got a good return for what the diamond was worth. At first we were nervous but we read the reviews and so far only good comments. You can try out other sites but if something isn't broken don't fix it and stick with what works. 

Other items you can sell on the site are loose diamonds, quality polished diamonds as well as engagement rings which some people never want to sell but if your ring is worth over $5000 then you are looking at a car here that might be better off towards investing into the family. 

Recommended websites for betting on Euro 2012

The Euro 2012 football tournament begins on June 8th with the first game of the tournament with Poland vs Greece followed by Russia vs Czech Republic.  This tournament looks to be a tight one with our opinion of 4 strong contenders to win this year. Those 4 are Spain, Netherlands, Germany and England. Perhaps Portugal has been left off of the list but they struggled to qualify and nobody knows if Cristiano Ronaldo will show up to play in the tournament. His last efforts at the World Cup 2010 saw him jogging on the pitch and crying like a baby when he was fouled or brushed lightly trying to induce a penalty or perhaps a yellow card. Certainly the opposite of the aspiring player in 2004 when he helped Portugal get to the finals.

That said there are many sportsbooks you can place bets on. We have 3 sites we recommend to provide useful information and sometimes exclusive bonuses to make the most out of Euro 2012.

e-sportbets.org

e-sportbets.org is all about football and betting. They cover all significant tournaments in football as well as leagues around the world but mainly focusing on Europe and the United Kingdom. 

Beteuro2012.org

beteuro2012.org is a site created by the Dealer Dan network. This site focuses just on the tournament for 2012 and nothing else. They have listed odds for the winners and qualifiers plus have tips.

Beteuro2012 Blogspot

beteuro2012.blogspot.ca is another site focused solely on the Euro 2012 tournament but did throw in a cheeky article on the champions league final between Chelsea FC and Bayern Munich. This site is mainly about information and odds on the teams as well as covering the top goal scorer of Euro 2012.

You can catch the entire tournament at the UEFA's dedicated website featuring all the matches, highlights and information:

Bet Kentucky Derby Odds

The Kentucky Derby is a prestigous horse race that happens only once a year and is over in about 2 minutes which is why they say it's the fastest 2 minutes in sports. What makes horse racing such a culture on it's own probably has more to do with sportsbetting. That is, the races are not as much fun when you are not betting on it.

Betting on the Kentucky Derby is something that many fans are getting used to and watching the race without money on the line just means it is almost not worth watching at all. Why do you think newspapers and media always mention the odds? The odds are important because they are calculated by sportsbooks.

2 sportsbooks we recommend for betting that accept players in USA, Canada and worldwide are BetOnline and Intertops. Both books offer signup bonuses to boost your bankroll.

In last month’s race in Malaysian Grand Prix there was a collision between him and the Indian racer Narain Karthikeyan. After the collision the reaction of vettel was most shocking part. He branded Karthikeyan as an “Idiot”, which made the situation more critical. It meant that for the first time in 27 races Vettel finished a grand prix but failed to pick up a point. Karthikeyan also replied Vettel as “a cry baby” and unprofessional.

But then Vettel said this reaction was “part of sport”. He has spoken to the German Newspaper Sport Bild that he lost the 4th place so it was obviously disappointing. And some time the emotion can blast out so there was nothing to ashamed about.

In the Collision Vettel suffered a puncture and brake damage. He said about that “lose the race how I did is really frustrating. Some people need to look more where they are going.” Narain Karthikeyan has been penalized 20 seconds in the Malaysian Grand Prix. Karthikeyan’s penalty relegates him to last behind team mate Pedro de la Rosa.

In this season till now he already played in Australian Grand prix there he finished as second. But in Malaysian grand prix he finished as 11th due to the collision with Karthikeyan this made him so angry that he could not control his emotion and just used a wrong word against his opponent. But he feel no sorry for that that’s why he was criticized by some other players.

Betting Tips

Pick Kentucky to win 1.31 the game as they are a focused team that beat a more impressive Louisville team as the winner of this game is essentially the champion. No respect to Kansas but on paper they don't stack up as well against a team like Kentucky that seems poised to win the title after a disappointing tournament last year. 

Pick score under 137.5 points. Kentucky can score a lot of points and Kansas as well but championship games usually don't get this high and as a general rule, always bet under. 

Bet Kentucky spread -6. This is a tough bet and it is up to you to decide if you think Kentucky is going to win by more than 6 points. Normally these are not the best bets to take but 2 uncertainties is if Kentucky can dominate the game and usually and historically NCAA mens title games are a lot closer. 

UFC 149 announced for Calgary, Alberta, Canada

UFC 149 Calgary debut to be confirmed on Wednesday

The Ultimate Fighting Championship is due to bring it’s unique brand of Mixed Martial Arts to Calgary, Alberta for the first time, expected to be on July 21.  It will be the first return to Canada since 2011, while the largest ever crowd for a UFC event attended UFC 129 in Toronto, back in April 2011.

The event will take place at the Scotiabank Saddledome, and is expected to be a 20,000 capacity sell-out, after the successes of previous Canadian events.

Speaking about these fans, and the plans for the event, director of Canadiran operations for UFC, Tom Wright, said: “We see our pay-per-view numbers. We know how many fans have travelled to Vancouver from Alberta. We know how many fans travelled to Toronto, actually, for UFC 129 from Alberta. There are strong (athletic) commissions in place, in Edmonton and Calgary. We’ve got good relationships in both those cities. And, frankly, those are two places we’ll look.”

The UFC continues to press on with its expansion plans into Canada.  With the popularity of MMA North of the border ensuring high crowds - including the record 55,724 for UFC 129 - the events are big business for the UFC.

With the event set to feature a big name title showdown, there has been speculation over who the possible fighters could be.  One likely possibility is a lightweight showdown between title holder Benson Henderson and Anthony Pettis, both of whom last fought at UFC 144 in Japan.  Pettis’ trainer believes it would be the perfect time and place for the fight.

The other option is a title bout for the featherweight belt, after Jose Aldo retained his title in his homeland, Brazil, back in January.

In addition to UFC 149, the organisation is looking likely to stage two more events in Canada in the second half of 2012 - likely to be in Toronto and Montreal.  With expansion plans gathering pace, the return of Canadian welterweight champion Georges St-Peirre from injury would be the perfect fight, with Wright saying, “I will always lobby for Georges to fight in his home country.”
