Descrição

Anatoly Karpov, the undisputed World Chess Champion for the decade from 1975 to 1985, today turns 70. In an interview with Sport Express, one of the chess greats answered questions from five grandmasters, including Sergey Karjakin and Rustam Kasimdzhanov. He gives his Top 5 players of all time, talks about the match that never happened with Bobby Fischer and laments the 1984 World Championship match where he led Garry Kasparov 5 wins to 0 but missed 21 “match points” in a row before the event was controversially stopped while he still led 5:3.
