Magnus is so kind to help ding get world champion 🙂
So…. I get chess is hard. But calling it a sport is silly. Are these guys professional athletes now? gtfo of here.
They should make a movie out of this
By the way, he's the first Chinese to hold the title.
Drama.
why wasn't Ding supposed to play in the candidates if he was №2 in the world? Couldn't he play those 30 games before Karyakin was disqualified?
Sounds like ding became the luckiest and most blessed player in the world lol
Ding is like Rocky Balboa of chess 😀 😀 😀
3:27 Li, Di VS Di (ng), Li ren
Oscar Award 2024: Best Documentary: My Journey (Ding Liren) by Levy Rozman
im just waiting for someone to record a movie about him
Li, Di sadly missing out on ing and ren – game was unbalanced from the start
that was really inspiring , congratulations to Ding ❤
It's funny how the title sounds serious but the thumbnail looks so lighthearted. 🙂
Levy, all respect to you for digging this out for us. Great work. Best chess reporter on the planet!
Netflix just signed Lizzo to play Ding Liren in a new mini series about this story called, "Against All Odds".
WE BEGIN with e4
Cant wait for the movie
S tier storyteller
Karjakin was punished twice. He was an important nail in the coffin of a Russian champion. Maybe Ian will become another Russian eternal second after Keres and Kortschnoi.
imo, all Ding's story tells us is that the way the WCC Candidates are chosen is messed up…
This is an amazing documentary!
Levy, Liren's story arch should you give you some hopes to be GM, or even world chess champion, wouldn't it?
He is a Ring Lider !!! 😂 ( … anagram of Ding Liren ! )
Ding chilling
So, was guess the ELO history smothered mate or not?
I guess I gotta say it… Yes U DO!!! So HAPPY to have seeken ALL the story step by step; but still happy of the final recap.
9:23 great pun lol
From Zero to Hero (The Story).
Best underdog story 💯
I get the point of the video – great comeback story. Maybe it's the greatest of any… sport? To be considered a 'sport' there must be some physical exertion. I don't think extending your arm occasionally while sitting down fits that definition. Good video nonetheless.
Levy, have you thought about doing recaps with the current Grand Chess Tour? As you presented the highlights from TATA Steel, I am sure you could get some great content from the actual Chess Tour.❤
"Magnus said I probably won't play unless Firouzja wins, and maybe Hikaru right."
When did Magnus ever mention Hikaru? Or even imply that he would play if Hikaru won? Only Hikaru mentioned Hikaru saying that if he had won Magnus probably would've played, which was simply hubris on his part. Not to mention copium after losing to Ding.
"Maybe Hikaru right" is pure fiction but you make it sound like this was a legitimate possibility. Do you know something from behind the scenes? If so I'm happy to be proven wrong. If not you're basically just supporting Hikaru's narrative.
Ding's story is so reminiscent of the '92 Euros.
TODAYS MY BIRTHDAY
2:20 "Russian operation"? Wtf Levy, they are killing people there
i thought it during the tournament and hearing this story really confirms the nerves of steel this man has. somehow he walks away from the board after a loss and returns the next day as if nothing ever happened which is something not many people can do. and we have seen that in nepo. while he had the upper hand for most of the tournament and at times played better than ding, when he fails, he has a hard time recovering, which was evident in this match as well as the previous world championship. in the end ding won the match because he had the mental strength of not letting losses stick around to disrupt his play.
Also noteworthy is Ding's 100-game unbeaten streak 2017-2018, a record at the time.
Focusing on his one loss in the candidates is really not necessary. He won five games, drew 8 and lost 1. Its a fairly spectacular performance in the candidates.
This has to be turned into a movie
Russian operation? It's a war, Levi
They better make a good Chess movie about Ding's epic journey.
Iian is like borderline going to space….no Ding got there!..blast off..get a new hairstyle Iian?
The fall of GothamChess will be even quicker than his rise…
Ding chilling
Incredible story. Atta boy Ding
crazy fr
Lol
Next World Championship Ding VS Magnus would be epic
Arslan Ash's story in Tekken 7 comes pretty close :DD
Why wasn't the Grand Prix story mentioned?
