NAKAMURA ON CARLSEN SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 2014 AT 3:51PM Here are two interesting quotations from Hikaru Nakamura. First, from his Twitter account last year, after Magnus Carlsen won the title:
Starting to realize that I am the only person who is going to be able to stop Sauron in the context of chess history.
Second, there’s this from the cover of the latest issue of New In Chess Magazine. [N.B. I haven’t received my copy yet, and perhaps all is clearly explained therein.]
I do feel that at the moment I am the biggest threat to Carlsen.

He is good.
