One thing I must applaud Ding for is that he didn’t withdraw. The fact that he’s fighting despite whatever he’s going through is warrior mentality. I wouldn’t underestimate him
Let us all hope that both players can play to their very best form (especially Ding can recover his best form and confidence now) so that the matches are not boring nor 1-sided and may the best player win.
People saying Magnus should’ve played , forget it’s a two person event. They also forgot how boring Nepo v Magnus was 😂 🤦🏽♀️ Nepo leaving his seat empty, drawing most times with high accuracy play nevertheless but so many draws , making blunders, Magnus getting shocked and insulted by blunders 😅 was some weird event! Nepo v Ding was actually super exciting to watch with all the ups and downs - it really felt like a battle ! So I’m happy to watch Guki v Ding. I think it will be more entertaining for sure
Are people still hung up on Magnus giving up his championship? I don't think it is a popular opinion anymore.. he just wants to slowly phase out and retire from classical chess which makes sense. It is something all chess players have to choose at some point. Ding & Nepo was interesting and Nepo vs magnus did have a lot of draws but that really speaks to the style of play from Ding vs Nepo where Ding went for more risky positions to force an imbalance and go for the win. I expect Gukesh to go for the win as well so I hope he wins it with some really cool concepts and ideas! Hope for a long set too! :)
Dude, watch games of 100 rated players, I am sure you will find them super exciting with all those ups and downs... I don't think high level games are for you...
Watched the entire thing and noticed there are two ways of replying: Ding: answer the question exactly and to the point Gukesh: Introduction, answer, Conclusion Of course, one is more fluent in English than the other but still, was interesting to watch 😅
9! years ago Sagar Shah and his wife Amruta started "Chess Base India' The role they played in the rise of the current generation of Indian chess players cannot be underestimated. Reference is often made to former greats of Indian chess. Of course Anand played a very important role, however, the current generation is itself responsible for the enormous growth. They, their parents and trainers deserve all the credit. Go Gukesh!
Best of luck and wishes to Gukesh and Ding, we are excited to see a great tournament and put your best and enjoy the game as well. As a fan I wish Gukesh to win, but Support Ding too.
One thing I would really want is Ding to be speaking in his language- Mandarin or Cantonese. I am sure they can get a translator. Make him more comfortable first.
Imagine if this was like a boxing match press conference - Ding and Gukesh up in each other's faces, seconds leaping onto the stage to keep them apart, Maurice shouting "gentlemen, please!" as he gets bowled over in the mêlée.
Best of luck to Ding - hope he gets his confidence back. Good luck also to Gukesh, such a young prodigy on top of being a well-spoken and kind young guy!
I'd love to see Ding recover and manage to win. But yet I'd also love to see Gukesh win as well (was thrilled he won the Candidates)! So lets just hope for a great match with some highlights like game 6 last time around!
With this press conference, I can confidently say that we will surely get to witness the old version of ding which we lost due to his mental health. And Gukesh as usual looks calm and best to his form. All the very best to both the players for the championship ahead.
Some says that this is not the “real” world championship match. I think that this is the best WC match. It’s going to be unpredictable, lots of flaws but moments of brilliance, dramatic, and a great storyline. Magnus vs Fabiano match, honestly, was pretty boring and predictable.
The very thing that Ding is fighting instead of withdrawing means he has something up his sleeve to befuddle Gukesh. It would be interesting to see how Ding is going to hoodwink Gukesh.
With the current form, Gukesh haa the edge but Ding in his prime was a monster of his own, I will never count him down until the end... Last time's championship is a clear example, Nepo was winning throughout the tournament, Ding hardly was balancing the score and in the end, *BOOM* Ding won... I wish both of them give their best here...
22:24 bro what-?? Ah, I see where the confusion is coming from! In chess, a "second" does not refer to a unit of time like seconds or minutes. It’s a term used to describe a person who assists a chess player, especially during important tournaments or matches. So, a "second" in chess is like an assistant or coach, not related to time.
what Magnus mean is : making chess super exciting, this classical chess is not so exciting actually, that is why he is not competing any more. Magnus making chess really enjoyable than before..........he just : "messi and maradona in Football", Mozart in classical music, VR46 in Moto GP, Schumacer in Formula 1.
Even the chess pieces Gukesh will be handling are made of Indian Boxwoods and probably even the board too. Bro, it’s like Caïssa saying… “Here, with this sword you can’t fail me. Slay the dragon, you’re destined for this sht!!”
A face to face is a chance for both players to look directly into each others souls, to gauge one another. For fans to watch and speculate as to who looks more confident or nervous. It's human chess after all, people are interested in the human emotions. It's also a great photo opportunity, a snapshot in time before the pieces move
@@kepler-vo1qw why do you find the idea so repulsive and improper? It's just two people standing opposite, facing one another for a few moments, while people take pictures. Do you feel there is something in the culture of chess that makes this ungentlemanly
"it's pronounced how it's spelled" is a nonsensical statement. People with different accents pronounce the same words differently, so we use the international phonetic alphabet to represent pronunciation, not the english alphabet. Please stop commenting nonsense.
@@nellikondaakashgoud9468Yes top 3 is going to be very easy... But china and usa are 20 trillion economies their 3% growth rate is still better than our 6% growth...we need like double digit growth rate to even catch up to them which ain't happening anytime soon...plus the political scene in india is shit so yea i agree with you 30 years minimum
Maurice, some respect please. The way you shot at Gukesh at 21:23 asking “and you?” was rude. Please, he has a name and it’s only basic courtesy to address someone on stage by his name. Thank you!
Kind of embarrassing that Maurice got Ding's name completely wrong. Ding Lizhen? What? A mangled pronunciation of Liren I can understand, but a whole different sound? And it's not like he's an unknown player - he's been WC for two years!
@@B-fq7ff There is only one standard pronunciation of his name in Mandarin. Chinese people never give their names in a dialect.Ding was just being polite in that video. You can see he immediately changes his mind.

Is the point of a world championship to “entertain” some braindead viewers? Or is the point to decide the best player in the world?

almost everybody say this!
Unpredictable? I think it's pretty clear that Ding is going to lose and then totally fall to bits.
