We've had some discussions here regarding fix matches being real or not, but today something astonishing happened where I was watching today's game that made me start to believe this narrative about fix matches being true.
dude, fixing matches has been a thing for a long time. If you look at small leagues, you'll see very blatant match fixing. In my country, there have been several athletes who have been banned/fined because of match fixing. Even in bigger leagues, there have also been people who have been fined for trying to manipulate the game.
