"I've played hundreds of blitz games against him over the years, so I know him pretty well. I know what he can do and I would know what he can't do (smiles). He's a good blitz player but I'm confident that I can beat him even at quick time controls" - Carlsen

At the start of the video Magnus walked through the room like he was thinking "I'm the baddest mudder fugger in here. Bad to the bone." Yep, looks like that was what he was thinking as he strutted his way to the board. Funny walk. 

lol

I think.it will be like the Fischer vs Petrosian candidates 1971match, where Petrosian will initially hold his own, but eventually he cant contain a rampant Magnus.

I think it was cool that Giri pulled off a win against Magnus in Paris, even cooler was it that Hikaru couldn't beat Magnus heads up. But seriously Anish Giri is going to be dangerous in the future!
