Elo on Fischer's conditions vs. Karpov
_
"Fischer refused to negotiate or compromise and his
stubbornness is what killed the match - nothing or nobody
else." - GM Evans (1975)
_
"Karpov deserves to be world champion"
- GM Evans (1975)
_
"... Evans ... still holds that Fischer's stubbornness
and nothing else killed the match. ... If Fischer had
not been so stubborn, there would have been a
match. ..." - Larry Parr (28 May 2002 08:11:07 GMT)
_
"... Fischer must be slanged -- as both GM Evans
and I have so slanged in thousands of words -- for
producing asinine conditions. ..." - Larry Parr
