Aug-21-07 | | Manuel Garcia: Manuel León Hoyos is a GM now. he have had apparently learnt something from his games against such a strong opposition. |
|
Aug-22-07
 | | WannaBe: <Manuel Garcia> Yep! http://www.chessmexico.com/es/index... |
|
Sep-18-07 | | Manuel Garcia: He is quite active in Europe. He and others of his generation, like Ibarra Chamín and Uriel Capó. |
|
May-10-08 | | brankat: If one is serious about his/her chess career, then Europe is still the place where one needs to be. |
|
Jul-10-08 | | Yeomans: Manuel Leon Hoyos tiene un rating de 2543 y es el actual # 3 de Mexico, bien por Manuel!! |
|
Sep-02-08 | | Xenon Oxide: This is the second of Ivanchuk for Bilbao Grand Slam. Manuel is grossly underrated and an expert at openings. Good choice :) |
|
Oct-13-08 | | sergeidave: Manuel was Ivanchuk's second?? That's pretty cool!! Go Manuel!! Vamos, México!! |
|
Dec-04-08 | | sergeidave: Good luck on Wijk aan Zee 2009 in January, Manuel!! |
|
Jan-06-09 | | cuendillar: Thus you could truthfully claim that he was "second only to Ivanchuk". |
|
Jan-24-09 | | yxcvbnm: good to know that there are still gms out there with a drawing-percentage <30% |
|
Jan-31-09 | | technical draw: Manuel Leon Hoyos, the fighting Mexican! With one game to go in group C he has NO draws. That's called macho chess! |
|
Feb-01-09 | | mindanalyzer: <Xenon Oxide: This is the second of Ivanchuk for Bilbao Grand Slam. Manuel is grossly underrated and an expert at openings. Good choice :)> that explains Ivanchuk's results at corus A |
|
Feb-02-09 | | Hector Maluy: No it doesn't. You are just trying to justify Ivanchuk's results. |
|
Feb-03-09 | | AliMatok: < Overall record: +58 -83 =52 (43.5%)* > his record is very very very poor, guys stop telling us that he is a great player. he is great in mexico maybe but not in the world. sorry guys that's the truth. |
|
Jul-29-09 | | midi900: The record on chessgames.com is based on an incomplete record. For instance if you take the rated games he has played since 2007 he has a 70% score with white and 56% with black. Of course he is still very far from the absolute top, but he is improving. |

|
Aug-12-12 | | freeman8201: I just seen this game draw to at the US Open today. |
|
Feb-10-16 | | TheFocus: Happy birthday, Manuel Leon Hoyos. |
|
Apr-21-21 | | Caissanist: Leon seems to have joined the long list of GMs who decide to make a career in finance. He is now a research associate in the Yale Program on Financial Stability, and a pre-doctoral student there: https://mleonhoyos.com . |
|
Apr-22-21
 | | perfidious: 'Financial Stability', is it?
For all its excellence at the board, being a 2600 GM does but little in that direction irl. |
|
Apr-22-21 | | Caissanist: As Maurice Ashley once said, "chess can take you far, just not in chess". |
