That's what American Bobby Fischer calls what could be the most exciting clash in the history of chess when he challenges Russia's Boris Spassky for the world title.
James Burke reports from Reykjavik, Iceland, on the World Chess Championship, which starts today.
This is a rare chance to meet a man who has been called a genius, a man who lives for chess, a man obsessed by the game since the age of 9. In an exclusive interview Bobby Fischer talks about his sensational career and his belief that he has been unofficial champion for the past ten years.
Also taking part: Bent Larsen (Denmark), Svetozar Gligoric (Yugoslavia)

(It Is hoped that there will be regular progress reports from Iceland throughout the championship)
