    @malteseifyouplease6735 Місяць тому +9

    Barry Sanders didn’t retire at age 36 or 37, he retired at 31 in his prime. He was 2 years younger than Magnus is now. Barry did amazing things with very little support around him. In that way, I think Hikaru would agree Barry is more like Bobby Fischer since Bobby’s accomplishments are even more astounding given that he had nowhere near the support structure of the Russian government chess juggernaut when he beat Spassky.

    • @kidnicky7489
