If after careful analysis, the best move is to decline the trade then I'd expect nothing else from him.

Predictive text for you, I didn't proof read.
I thought that you might have wanted to write "uncrowned", but that makes even less sense. Magnus was crowned for almost a decade.
This is good news for Woolly , I feel.now that I can fulfill my dream of becoming the new world champion ! …….bless you Magnus ! 🙏

History will judge this as the biggest slur on Magnus just like Fischer declining to play Karpov for fear of losing.

I don't consider them comparable. More likely (IMO), history will recognize that Magnus walked away because he was simply too dominant.
Nepo is not a threat to Magnus, after all.
He couldn't win a single game against Magnus, despite trying 11 times in a row ...
This is good news for Woolly
BURST !!

Stop bringing Fischer into the game, these were completely different circumstances. Magnus defended his title four times, and spent a big proportion of the last 10 years preparing for these matches.
I think he is scared of losing his title
He knows Woolly is just to bigger threat to his title , that’s why he’s made the right decision not to defend it ! 😾
Woolly fully understands Magnus ! ……Peace Brother 🙏

Magnus will be seen as champion even after one of Ian Nepo or Ding Liren hold the championship.
nah not by me, if he wants to be seen as the best player of 2022 he needs to prove it imo
Icy 🥶 let Woolly prove it to you sweetie ! ✌️😹
….. on the football field ! ✌️😾
what do you want to prove me Woolly? :o
Magnus is too full of himself. Understandable, I guess, but he shouldn't expect us to clap after this clown show.
