The most wholesome pin of shame
Of pin shame
He sacrifices, HIS DIGNITYYYYYYYY!
Nepo's hilarious. "It wouldn't cost that much to get me to chessbox. I've been practicing boxing for cardio, and beating people up is fun. Maybe if I liked them, it would cost a bit more."
True Russian heart 😂
That was an innuendo to not offending Jews
Certified Russian😂
Ian Drago
@@Wargasm54 Man! Russia is in the middle of war, which is full of atrocious, where shooting civilians, hunger and rapes are measures used. This puts your comment in terrible context. Nepo has condemned this war openly and do not deserve to be in this context
Levy: "How much to chessbox?"
Fabi: "10 million"
Nepo: "I'd beat someone's ass for free, what are you talking about?"

34:24 "No no no, it's like a process of hurting others, yeah it's great."
I paraphrased but that's the gist
Not joking, if Nepo trains in like MMA or something which is now popular... He will hit 2850 and sweep Ding... I'm dead serious ...

Levi left Russia at the age of 1 or 2 years old according to his interview on levitov chess so how he can be considered like a 100% Russian person? I think more fair to say he's bilingual isn't?
@@happyrabbit7944 There are so many things wrong with your comment lol
This interview is the reason why I think Levy should bring his podcast back.
you couldn't have finished yet 💀 yall yapping
The podcast was and will always be my favorite GC content
These are podcast. Just not in a classic podcast setting
Kabir is talking specifically about the podcast he has on this very channel. Yeah this is "a" podcast, but we're very identically discussing one actual Podcast that currently exists. By the same guy.
I disagree
Nepo in the Candidates is something else 👑
Please give me unlimited game review
He plays quick and strong.
Don't you guys do anything with Anish Giri, who turned Tata into Tata Steal
Gukesh better
@@awdityaa I will admit it when gukesh defeats Ian
Ian is super chill. The first time that levy is not wearing a full suit😂😂
Yeah, he's the reason I've gotten into watching chess. I was so amazed by his performance at dota caster's stream, where he was blindfolded agains 5 (or 4) newbie players.
Every time Nepo answers he always humble himself and acknowledges his mistakes or his shortcomings, he also keeps on empathizing with Ding . This man is truly a gentleman i'm glad i'm a fan
Don't Worry Once He Wins 😂 His EGO will be through the Roof and would happily Spit on You
I had never heard him talk but somehow it was clear to me.
but he also accuses people of cheating when losing to them
Come on chess players by far are visible weirdos and full of ego
@@jacob4tee isn't that Kramnik?
"That's fair "

“Okay umm”

Big thank you to Ian for interviewing Magnus
what??
LoL what
iangus neposon*
you win this entire comment section. congratulations!
Damn I can't believe our favorite IM youtuber Ian Rozeman is interviewing Magnus Nepomniachtchi two time challenger
Credit to Ian for proving all the critics wrong 💪
Do you come from the future?
he's already proven them both wrong and right twice
It’s not over yet.
@@MrVladko0así es Nepo siempre tiene crisis nerviosa es un torneo muy duro y estresante 👍
I really want to see this guy becoming a world champion.
I think he should become a GM first
@@b0d954He is talking about Nepo
@@b0d954he meant Ian
@@b0d954sarcasm I suppose 😅
@@b0d954 good one 😂😂😂
"It's the process of hurting someone" I nearly fell off my chair laughing. He not only wants to win, he also wants to hurt someone in chess boxing. Great interview! I enjoyed more than the Magnus one. His decency and honesty are so clearly evident!
I died when he corrected Levy. "No no no no, the process of hurting someone..."
Extremely rare footage of Levy not mentioning Cagnus Marlsen in a video
8:30 lol (oh you said Cagnus, my bad)
Not true, he mentioned the goat quite a few times
Why’d you have to spell his name like that 😂😂😂
Spot on!! 😂
Levy never fails to kidnap GMs
😂😂😂
3 years old already. You can't think of anything by yourself? You have to repeat what comments someone else created in hopes to get likes? It's played out 700 times a video
ok this one was actually funny
😏
Old joke
Fun fact, Nepo was also playing Dota professionaly, even got a win against 1st international -NAVI. He had Frostnova nickname. He also commented couple of matches on Starladder as an play-by-play commentator(searchable in CZcams)
amazing
, thank you
Thanks
I’m rooting for Ian, seems like a chill and humble guy. Feel bad that he’s been through so much. Hope he wins the Candidates and the World Championship!
Levy catching these GMs like Pokémon
My money is on Nepo. I would also be happy if Fabi wins as he is a class act. I feel like Nepo is the most naturally talented chess player in the field but he loses patience or has anxiety sometimes and loses. He has proved many times that his best is better than everyone.
Ian will be tough to beat because he wins games, frankly. Maybe his chance of losing a game is higher than Fabi's chance, but Ian's chance of winning a game is quite a bit higher than Fabi's. Fabi has only won one game, and the position was nearly equal
@@fangiscool1 I also feel the same in regards to Nepo. His ceiling is really high but his floor can be low sometimes. Also I love the Indians. They seem like such good boys but I think they are not seasoned enough to take down the likes of these 2. But the future of chess is looking real bright with people like them.
Fabi could've well won against Naka and Gukesh - he let the games slip at a certain point. But it's clear he is always the one putting pressure for a win against any opponent, and if he finds the rhythm, he will win games. On the other hand, he's the only one who can finish the tournament undefeated. The man is just too hard to break. Nepo is very dangerous (well prepared and experienced), but he's unstable and might well lose a couple of game in a bad streak.
Nepo has great days, Caruana is well balanced, but I believe Nodirbek will overtake the rest in 2 or 4 years.
I just loved seeing Nepo forcing himself to triple-check the winning sequence of moves against Vidit and not blitz it instantly. It’s a good sign to me.
Ian actually seems like a really chill person, i know hes been in controversy before but here he just seems really cool
what controversy
@@kevinctb9243 losing the world championship twice
There was no controversy. Ian is a great guy.
He is too cool to gaf & that's what always gets him into trouble.
He's accused people of cheating with pretty unfounded evidence if I remember right. Not stating my opinion on it but that's the main controversy. @@kevinctb9243
Besides being an insane player, he looks a very calm and great person. I am very happy to watch his fandom getting bigger and bigger.
Best wishes for him
looking back, I think Ian deserves to be world champion even though I've routed for the opposite side both times, dude is always dominating in the candidates and still is, wish him the absolute best
Tbh everybody rooted for Ding as well. The last championship was extremely hard in terms of choosing your favorite cause Ding is among the most humble guys on earth and i strongly rooted for Nepo every turnament before that. At the end, i wanted nobody to win bc i knew that it would hurt more seeing the other one loose than feeling good for the winner. And the last game proofed me right i guess
We need the drunk Nepo vs. Levy match fr
Yeah, with Nepo in his bartender waistcoat 😂
My favorite player. Cant wait to see how he wins candidates once more and gets his well deserved crown in the championships
Was going for Ding in WCC but man Nepo for sure to win the candidates and maybe avenge his loss to ding if that happens il be going for Ding but you g9t this Nepo just a fan from New Zealand
Not looking so good.
@@JuliusCeaser_ nah I believe in him
@@shayinlp7831 hard games. It was an incredible candidates.
I must say, Ian always impresses me with how he expresses himself. He and Fabi always share very interesting and honest insights into that level of competition. Also, great interviews Gotham! Enjoyed them all.
He and Fabi are the nicest chess players, so I like that they are playing good
he and fabi is really a breath of fresh air to hear their insights and see their honest and humble thoughts
Ian gave us one of the most painful visuals in recent memory during the rapid tiebreaks.
I’m just glad to see him playing at his best again.
Is it me, or is Nepos English much better than it was a year ago? (Language, not the opening).
ian hates the english he thinks its nonsense but yeah i think he probably has improved
@@jadexsolaris6916he thinks the language is nonsense?
@@jadexsolaris6916 who told he hates it?
trust me he speaks Russian with the same manier also many virus phrases and many phrases are the same
@@pct4toI think he means the opening.
Hope Nepo wins the candidates, if anyone deserves to be a World Champion, its him.
Also Caruana deserves a win
Alizera and pragg deserve it more. Nepo had his 2 shots
@@edwincollins5847 the one who deserves it is actually the one who wins the tournament
@@edwincollins5847Alireza shouldn’t even be in the candidates the way he got in should be bannable
@@KhoynadaWhat? He got in fair and square? Dont be a salty loser because Alireza did something within the rules.
Don't ask me why but I was expecting this interview to be in Russian
Edit: in case you're wondering, I don't speak Russian
I dont think anyone should ask, they both speak Russian
Honestly I thought he would have subtitles
I wasn't aware that Levy is fluent in that language.
@FahimHoq , his parents left Russia in 1990s, so even though he was born in the US, Russian is his mother tongue.
Edit: he speaks without an accent which is seriously impressive
@@margos666 thank you for explaining, I didn't know about his background.
34:30 ‘no no no no just the process of hurting others’ 😂😂
So kind of levy to be welcoming aspiring chess players onto his channel. So humble and inspiring😊❤
Great to see this new format continued! I hope you bring back your Gotham podcast, loved listening to it before it went on hiatus!
Hope Ian wins the candidates,he deserves it
i love the both Guys but it is just hilarious the cultural differences, Jan is such an honest and no bullshit guy and then Levy acting in the most American way ever. really hoping that this Time Jan will close the Title
When a dota player meets with chess nerd.😂
more like when a dota nerd meets a chess one
"Yeah I have my own unique way of qualifying"
guy is a genius :D
Thank you Gotham for helping us keep up to date to the candidates and get to know more about these players inside and outside their chess, hope to see more and more of these interviews ❤
Ok it’s settled. I want a round robin competition with top GMs 10 shots in, playing against a bunch of lower titled players.
Drunk Magnus would be unbeatable
@@zephyrvezir5444 Magnus Carlsberg
"I have my own unique way of qualifying" 😂 love you Ian
i LOVE how Levy lets the other person talk. I have never once see him take the talking stage away from anyone. As normal as that sounds, a lot of interviews get lost because of overtalking or cutting the other person off. This is chill, smart and insightful. Wonderful job, Levy. Huge respect. Ian, kudos and all the best. Bring it home!
Ian is probably the chillest chess dude out there
You know for me chess players like him are great and so fun to wach mainly beacause they look so human, you emphatize with them so much, but still they are genious, facinating
So informative. Love to hear the chess giants up close. Thank you both for agreeing to give the fans this treat.
I was so much looking forward to this interview. Thank you Levy and Ian !
Nepo is always such a chill guy. Seems like one of the few super GMs that aren’t ego maniacs.
I am so glad you finally interviewed Ian Neapomniatchchtechichi!
Nah it's Ian Nepomniachtchi not that
@@sak1499 Dictionary, joke: a thing that someone says to cause amusement or laughter
@@sak1499 No, it actually is Neapomniatchchtechichi.
@@arasgee9184 that was a really old joke
@@arasgee9184 😂
i love this dude, such a cool guy
really hoping Ian makes it to the big stage again and wins it
Man poor Ian... my heart goes out to him. He's really fighting the sadness from everything being so unfair
My favorite interview so far, can't really tell why but you seemed to connect with him quite well compared to what we see from him in more formal interviews. Great job!
Great interview. Really like Nepo so nice to see him a bit more.
Mad respect for Ian after this one
Thank you Gotham for having this interview.
Ian is a great guy 🙂
I love that whatever Nepo talks about, he sounds like he’s just analyzing yes ok
Yes ok
I mean yes but okay
The best part - Levy and Ian both speak Russian
When did they speak Russian??
@@mostafam7873 not in the video, Ian is Russian, and Levi's parents talked to him on Russian when he was a kid.
Levitov chess has a Russian interview with Gotham
You do a great job in interviewing. It's very fluent, relaxed, much better than the fide one. I enjoy it a lot more than your normal videos haha
Ian is super chill, Rooting for him!
"Depending on the opponent it would be for free" Now I´m curious who Nepo wants to punch in the face
Ding

Big thank you Levy for interviewing one of the big talents in chess. You will see that Ian will win again 😊
He deserves to win the world chess championship
He has a great fighting spirit to keep coming and trying his best every time
I wish this year will be his best year
Good luck for every player in the tournament
❤
Very candid interview - I am always surprised how openly Ian speaks out his mind.
I wish him all the best to do the hat-trick of winning three candidates in a row!
Brilliant interview 👏 Nepo is a legend. Definitely a fan favourite. He will crush his opponent in Chess Boxing 👊
Спасибо за интервью, Леви 😘
Gotham podcast would be awesome. Even interviewing young, up-and-coming chess players would be really cool. Hope to see more of this!
Thanks for the Interview Nepo is a humble but serious guy off to a good start here in his third candidates looking forward to some Great games coming up he’s got Pragg than Fabiano right after that those will be some telling games Good Luck
OMGGGG thank you for giving my Nepo an interview
Levy, in addition to digging all the chess content and your reactions, I thoroughly enjoy how you pronounce all the names so fluidly, regardless of what country, language or complexity of phoneme combinations are presented. Cheers!
Great interview. Love Ian. Easy to root for, funny, willing to open up and share his thoughts and experiences. Thanks, Levy.
28:40 he won world cup and other classical events
Also he played 63 classical games, he played more than %95 of super gm s
I don't know why Nepo always looks like a sweet guy to hang around
he has a really nice scense of humor unfortunately most of English speaking interviews pressume quite strict format without Dina's style jokes let's say otherwise It would have been something lol
My Fav player❤❤
I do have to say that what Ian has accomplished is criminally underrated. It takes serious fortitude and persistence to do what he's done and doing*. Idc that he didn't win the world championship I have a ton of respect for Ian as a competitor.
Yooooo, thats the interview I was waiting for
Готэм - первый американец, кто смог выговорить фамилию Непомнящего:) ps я знаю, что он русскоговорящий
Оч хорошо получается у итальянцев, кстати! Общаюсь с несколькими фанами, вообще влёт выговаривают
So dominant. He needs to win this year
Ian deserves the championship and he has a great personality.
Best wishes for him.
He won our hearts❤
Nepo is the actual chess genius! He is just too comfortable to try to win 😂 The guy literally chills and plays some chess.
The dynasty of poets fully explains Ian's charm and charisma. Top fan
Nepo is looking fiire ❤
You should add time stamps to section off parts of the interview (and future ones too). It makes it much more digestible.
"The process of hurting someone..." My man Ian couldn't be more ready 💀
Ian haircut looking fire
🔥
Levy get your podcast channel active, your interviews Are great
This interview series has been phenomenal
It's insightful to hear from Grandmaster Yan and his experience in these competitions. Appreciated his openness about the physical and mental toll of such high-stakes games.
It's insightful to receive a comment from Artificial Intelligence. Such a thoughtful response to the video, totally not fabricated
levy never fails to talk to gms while not being one
I think Levy has better chance to be grandmother rather than grandmaster lmao
I believe he has done chess a great service with his work. Don’t really care if he’s a GM.
*/ian is a whole vibe*
I agree on what Ian said regarding when he didn't know much opening, and played more intuitively...
It happened to me as well when I was young (didn't play chess for like 12 years until 2 years ago), I think I was much better compared to now (know a bit opening, and play more solidly compared to before) but I realised I think my younger self played much better (sharper and more precise) compared to now (where I often blunder, almost never blunder when I was young)
Btw, from the interview, Nepo looks like the genius who doesn't need to study much but still ace the test 😂
Definitely a role figure (for me) in chess!!
Great interview .. like the others. Keep up the good work!
Favourite chess player, no cap он слишком крут🙏🙏
Nice, you corrected light, sound and topics. Good job!
I love that unlike Magnus, Ian put real thought into the “how many drinks before you’d lose” question.
I do get that they are all in the best in the world but Ian’s answer shows he’s still got humility and humor on top of that.
Thanks for the interview!
I believe this year will be Ian's time to win the title finally. Last year, he was the big fan favorite as well.
Levi never fails to kidnap GMs
Stolen
Levy never fails to kidnap Grandmothers?
Ian never fails to include Magnus in his world championships.
ian and levy hit those SLAPS
Hey Gotham! Congrats on the big interview! Great job! If you could do anything to improve I would suggest being more direct in your questioning so there isn't a ramble of him just talking. For example you asked the difference between first and 2nd candidates, that's pretty open ended and he went on and on . Instead you could have asked about his first candidates and more specifically most difficult opponents, specific positions. Then switch to 2nd... then ask about a comparison.. also, some opening questioning about how they got started in chess, their favorite foods, how much time do they spend preparing for the candidates? Does he have any special regimes when training for chess matches? He spoke a little about it but we really could have gotten a better look into how much they prepare. Need any help reach out!
Now I want Nepo to win
Ian is so likable
I am excited for the rematch against Ding. So seeing Jan succeed is really promisimg.
