Anatoly Karpov Explains The Sicilian Dragon - Best Of The 70s

In 1974, Anatoly Karpov battled Viktor Korchnoi in the final Candidates match of the World Champinonship cycle. His hard-fought victory (12.5-11.5) earned him the right to play Bobby Fischer in the 1975 World Championship match. As we know now, Fischer would never play that match (or serious chess again)

In chess, people rarely ever defend an extra pawn that is on c4/c5 if 1.d4 has been played. I understand why not in the QGA, but why so few other cases?
