You broke the rules on camera, you only thought they would agree to your proposal because you dropped out of the blitz and made ridiculous demands. FIDE will hopefully take a stand and remind us all that no player is above the game. They failed to hold you accountable when you tried to ruin my life, I hope they’ve learned their lesson.

I’ve never prearranged a draw in my career. In the video I’m joking with Ian in a situation with lacking decisive tiebreak rules. This was obviously not an attempt to influence FIDE. It was said in the spirit that I thought FIDE would agree to our proposal. If anything it was a bad joke given the gravity of the situation. I think the match itself showed two players playing high level chess, equally matched and both deserving of a win.

That’s the story of a match fixer blaming someone who actually never did that 🧐. Welcome to FIDE!

Dr. Mukhisa Kituyi: From where I sit, it embarrasses me when I see the number of MCAs, MPs who come to Geneva on official visits but they do not go to any meetings yet they get $1000 per diem per day. #JKLive @KoinangeJeff

Back in the 1980s, Colombian football was ruled by the country's terrifying drug cartels. Pablo Escobar owned a top flight club, and his hated enemies the Cali Cartel did too. From kidnapping referees to prison kickabouts with Maradona, this is the story of narco-football...
