bro chill asf
THE ROOOOOK. Abasov is a Gotham enjoyer, amazing
Abasov seems like a really nice and cool person.
Abasov is a very likeable well spoken guy.
the way Levi conducts his interviews is soo much better than anyone else doing this, and the players seem to like the conversation more lol
I notice Levy treats them like normal people instead of just talking chess only.
If you meant to be respectful, his name is levy like levee
It's because a chess player is interviewing chess players. Need more of this where interviewers and knowledgeable and experienced in the field of whatever their interview
I didn’t realize how cool Abasov is
Can't believe the guy in the candidates is only "the top 5 or top 10" from his country
He is such a deserved wildcard
The best GMs from Azerbaijan are getting older and losing their interest and passion, that’s the main reason.
When I think chess GM, I think Morphy, Fischer, Alekhine... some dark, tortured genius. It seems like chess grandmasters today are so wholesome and healthy. Except for Hans Neimann of course, he's from the old evil genius chess school I think.
I love Hans Neimann lol. The chess world needs a villain like him to spice things up
@@_CertifiedHoodClassic he was as controversial even before the cheating saga, just less famous. Has always been the chess villain
After Mamedyarov and Radjabov it is very nice to see another Azerbaijani chess player in candidates.
And those two you mentioned were strong players
@@princeantisocialNijat is very strong player too. Also, he gave 4 years break to study in college (university)😊
hope he will win some games and return to the main competition. Good luck with Nepo!
Even though he don't have much luck in this tournament, he added a nice color to the tournament.
Levy, you are a great interviewer! Sympathetic and Articulate, even official FIDE interviewers lack these qualities.
Abasov is obviously the smartest guy in the tournament. He’s playing at the candidates even though he took time off to go to college. Wow!
He seems really down to earth, I really like it!
Man tore an ACL and still plays its tough to handle with an injury. Also he was a GM at 15 so he deserves to be there
9:35 Nijat politely casting some shade on Levi's story lol
I interpreted it as a compliment to have a pretty decent record against an already strong GM
+1 @sohumgala2422
It's definitely a compliment
@@sohumgala2422 Nijat says Alireza was pretty much 2700 four years ago. If you look 4 years ago, Alireza beat Magnus Carlsen in the banter blitz cup. Basically, there is no way in the world that Levy, around 2300, could have even been competitive with Alireza. It's like you are a high school player and you said you beat Michael Jordan when he first came into the NBA. I dont think Nijat is saying Levy is lying, but maybe it was a bit more than 4 years ago.
I wasn’t sure about this guy when he qualified, but I kinda like him now. Seems like a very nice guy and has given a good fight in every game so far in the tournament.
Nijat is such a likable and soft spoken man.
I think I have a new favourite chess player
When Abasov told Levy "We are masters in chess.." I got so hyped.
Such a wholesome guy. amazing
abasov was so smart and kind, looking forward to seeing more from him
THE ROOOOOOOOOKKKKKK🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 1:41
SACRIFICES THE ROOK
@@billybob6604 wasnt talking about sacrifice, just yelled 'the rook/
@@exbricadlo im still gonna say it
@@billybob6604 i'saying, thats not the case
@@exbricadlo 🤷♂️
Man is sooo calm!
Levy is on a mission to milk all the GMs💀
Gotham milker
Pause
Chill bro
He was contacted by FIDE for the interviews so he did interview all of them in 3 days (told this at Anish's channel yesterday)
GM Nijat is so sweet and adorable so i followed his IG lol
I didn't know a lot about Abasov before this tournament, and this interview and his games have been eye opening to how amazing of a person he is. I wish him nothing but the best in his entire life, what a gem!
Finally a GM who is a good talker
Have you met… Vishy Anand?
These interviews are making it so much more enjoyable to watch the candidates. Nice to get to know the personalities etc
He gives strong Aronian energy, very chill guy
I liked this interview a lot. He seems like such a pleasant guy!
Super cool and chill dude, great interview!
Levy is such a humble person, its just fantastic that he does so well...
Very happy to see this series of interviews with the players. It makes it so much better to root for them and enjoy their games once you can associate their personalities with their names. Nidat was just a name to me before this but now I am genuinely intrigued to follow him more after seeing how pleasing and likeable he is in real life. Kudos to Levy for continuing to bring top level chess content to us.
My man Levy representing all the way..... Respect bro
very cool guy this Nijat, rooting for him to win some games
I’m rooting for him but he needs some more experience in high level competitions his opponents are veterans of events like these.
Love from Turkiye!
what a great guy he is
immensely likable plus a sense of humor on par plus English is so good.. no wonder, Levi will make anybody likable plus...
Great interview. While Abasov has had some tough losses, I've been a great fan of his games. His Queen endgame with Gukesh was amazing.
Nijat is so sweet, great man
Didn't know he is such a cool guy
Very likable
I don't know if he'll succeed as a candidate but I suspect he'll succeed as a person. He seems like a very well rounded person (unlike Magnus or Nepo).
Nepo not rounded? look at his face
@@user-kc6wu2gc2m 💀
You can include Nakamura in that list
@@DuncanEduardo hah.. Naka already achieved highs, he doesn't have to be rounded or be nice.. lol
I couldn't wait for Alireza's video, but I jumped to watch this! Nijat was hilarious! 😂
Nijat never fails to THE ROOOOOOOK.
he seems like a nice guy
Bro I want him to do well in the canadites.
The roooookkk
Such a gentleman, love from india
Cool guy 😊 and good luck with the games Nijat 🙂
very likeable person and also strong chess player, hope he gets better physically and ruins the tournament for some.
Amazing guy ❤
Chill dude, cool accent af
Abasov is a phenomenon player definitely has potential to be 2730. But for now he's straight up outclassed in the candidates. I
He's not winning the candidates. but I hope he comes back stronger
Nihat is still young, I’m pretty sure he’ll have time to improve himself
we need more Levy on big tournaments, his interviews on the Candidates are definitely one of the best chess players interviews I've seen
Such a nice and funny person.
After Fabi and Nepo, I've liked this the most compared to Levy's interviews with the other candidates
was wondering if levy would interview him. interesting to hear from an underdog of the tourney
1:41 Nijat also is the fan of THE ROOK!!!
Damn. He torn his ACL and recovery is still ongoing
Loved this guy
Good luck with Nepo ❤
For everyone is like "he is so chill", remember that edibles are legal in Canada
The rooook😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
all the respect to him after 10 rounds fighting those monsters. Almost beating Hikaru, defending against Nepo. Would be awesome to see him win one game
I might have a new favourite chess player
Brilliant Forrest Gump reference!!
8:30 Abasov casually revealing he's immortal
Levy pinning top GMs for an interview
Underdog competitors don't get the respect they deserve, but good on Levy to do this interview with Nijat. He qualified under Magnus' withdrawal, I get it, but he held his own with some good draws. He doesn't need to win to impress anyone, here. Even if he keeps drawing, it's a decent payday :)
I love gotham
Nijat going THE ROOOK lool
Man is in the candidates with a torn ACL 😮😢
the rooooooooooooooook
Nice guy!
Abasov is charming and a gentleman! "I tried to move my rook too far" 😂
But the camera pan 1:21 😂
Why are we still getting amazed at how calm and mature these guys are? Are we expecting professional chess players to be immature and flamboyant?
Dude this Abasov guy is so funny
Abasov is the Man of The Tournament !
Abosov is such a cool guy I have found out from a few interviews. he's making my list of favorite chess players.
2:46 run forest run!!
I'm def a nijat fan lol love this guy
Before Levy mentioned the gym I could tell Abasov goes cuz his non broken leg is musclular as heck
Crazy in every Interview there is an Elefant in the room xD
I just wanna be friends with him☺
Interview gukesh next please
nijats a fan
did he?
Gotham never fails to milk
To be able to prep for and play in the candidates in his condition is very hard and personally for me ... very sad to see.
Just for once think that it is your once in a lifetime oppurtunity and it was met with such utter unluckiness, it's really heartbreaking, tournament ruining much.
As if his leg's condition wasn't enough, FIDE surely would have gone above and beyond in inspecting him especially, because rumors about him were circulating in the air, which consequently must have caused even more distress, discomfort and psychological pain, maybe even physical pain to him.
I wholeheartedly wish that he scores well in his first candidates tournament, and if not him, at least his subordinate player Salimova Nurgyul does, so we would see the smile on his face widen.
Love you Abasov!
The roookk
When is Vishy's itv? ❤❤❤❤
Why are some of these interviews on this channel instead of Levy's channel?
Levy answer this on the live he made with Anish this morning, on Anish’s channel
@@liltifred will you not tell us? :(
@@ddenti99 lol I want to know too
Out of context but whenever u do roooooookkkkk turn into super Saiyan 😅
Got a fan out of me.
And he sacrificed… THE LEEEG
