DrFrank124c   You have a great looking avitar!  Therfore you have earned all street cred required to make your bold statement. If you say "Bobby Fischer Was A Real Champion ... In every sense of the word!"  Then it is so!

He lost some games to Spassky in his 1992 title defense.

True, he isn't one of those fake champions like Anand or Khalifman.

On the other hand, Fischer never won a single game while champion. By that measure, one could argue he was the worst champion ever.

A true champion? Far from it. The second match against Spassky in 1992 was apart from some games  a lot lower in quality than the one in 1972.Fischer played his best chess in 1971.

Rest in peace Mr. Fischer. They know not of what they speak. It's real easy to take pot shots at a deceased person who is not here as his "younger self" to defend himself.

There is a cartoon - Fischer is sitting at a chessboard and mumbles..: " Time to say something crazy".

He did wonders for chess in the U.S.A.
