After the game he could not analyse the position without the engine, couldnt explain his moves and even the interviewer seemed more knowledgable than hans. He has a history of cheating online for years and hundreds of games. The security checks werent all that good for that specific tournament. Two of the best chess players have said in a respectful way that he cheated. He had an engine like game against magnus, even though in all the games before magnus in the same tournament he was playing horribly. But most important of all, chess speaks for itself. So yes felixjohnston, I also believe hans is a cheater.

@@felixjohnston3402 yeah knowing nothing about his moves was quite evident in the interview after that game. Can you show literally any other young gm like prag, erigaisi, abdusutarov etc., whom Magnus has accused? Why only hans? And he has a history of doing that too. Is it too wild to guess that the opponent is cheating when he has an actual history of doing that? His immature behaviour is a bigger reason for ruining his career than accusations.

@@vaibhavvb9898 it says a lot about your willingness to think about the issue you didn’t think that he might have been a bit tired and overwhelmed after such a victory. Also experts have found no basis to think what you’re claiming is true. I’ll say that again, people smarter and more qualified than you think you and your big bro are full of it.

Intersting, but too long, going in circles about the same topic for 30 mins... Levi should have edited it or manouever the interview to move along, but he knew letting Hans ramble and uploading it unedited would make more people dislike Hans (which is obviously not diplomatic and, understandably, very pissed off at the witch hunting he had to endure).

Levy there is an issue at 15:22 with your statement, Hans Niemann is insanely delusional because of one thing you missed, Ilia topuria despite being young and upcoming was also 18-0 beating josh emmett 50-45 brutally and bryce mitchell DOMINANTLY, went on a risky fight with jai herbert but he made sure to not lose, AND WAS ULTIMATELY UNDEFEATED. Volk obviously being the favourite but Ilia had the right to think that way as he was also undefeated, while volk had lost to Islam (YES IN LIGHTWEIGHT) which ilia imo thought that volk was weakened from that headkick meaning ilia didnt face that undefeated volk who beat holloway 3x, he faced the volk that was a shell of his former self. In this case, Magnus Carlsen is not in the same position as volkanovski, HE IS COMING OFF a win on SCC a year prior, won CCT, and also won Norway Chess, yes he has lost some things but cmon man losing in chess aint the same as getting headkicked. Hans Nieman.... LOST TO LIKE WHAT? 3 INTERNATIONAL MASTERS IN TATA STEEL DESPITE BEING THE CLEAR FAVOURITE, DIDNT EVEN WIN HIS TATA STEEL SECTION. He has no right to talk, the only thing he can say is probably "I beat that guy one time" -Israel Adesanya.
