He is selfish like Kramnik and Kasparov and plays for money. He can never be a
true Chess Lover like both of them.

sorry he will be beaten by Kasparov. He is not that good.
Kramnik is not playing well. I could say that even after his first game where he
won with black.

Money money and money. Fisher was truely great when he looked at every game in
isolation and faught till the end he knew winning and losing does not matter as
long as he gets the satisfaction out of the game. My last comment may be wrong,
winning may have mattered to him but he was a true chess lover. What today's GMs
do is learning every variations by rote and Fisher thought it does not show the
natural ability of the player.(maybe thats why he left the chessworld or is dead
for chessworld). he promoted FR chess which is truely great.

He is a true enemy of chess game.(winning is not everything, fighting spirit is
not displayed here.)
