I expected such remarks, but IMO it is wrong to state this.
There was a qualifying match for the match against Kramnik
and Fritz won it.

Now we had the WMCCC, which has nothing to do with the match
against Kramnik. Junior won it very deservedly, but it is not
fair to state that we have 'the wrong challenger for Kramnik'.

To me this is the same as saying: 'Kramnik is the wrong world
champ, as Kasparov won the tournaments in Wijk aan Zee and
Linares before Kramnik'. Kramnik won the match against Kasparov
and therefore he is world champ. Fritz won the match against
Junior to play Kramnik and is therefore the right challenger.
