Garry Kasparov on Magnus Carlsen Chess Drama
Bah. This whole thing would never have happened if Garry hadn't started the trend of losing to computers.
lol
Magnus Carlsen will not defend World Title!
Sort:
Strange that Carlsen would just give up the title without totally retiring from professional chess. I wonder if this has anything to do with the Niemann controversy.

No, his announcement to not contest the WC predates the Niemann thing.

Because he’s boring. i want to see others win.
OK, but it would be good if the new World Chess Champion was the best in the world at chess. I suspect that won't be the way for a few years now.

agreed. That is the way it is supposed to work. Otherwise the title doesn't mean as much.
The GOAT has won the chess championship 5 straight times, don’t need it. After the Meltwater he should take a long break, play 1 more championship
Maggie Mango say it doesn't matter
Nice to meet you
