The 10th World Champion, Boris Spassky, was born on this day in 1937.
He won the title by defeating Tigran Petrosian on his second attempt (Moscow 1969), after a failed challenge in 1966, but conceded it to Bobby Fischer three years later. He is the oldest living World Champion. pic.twitter.com/sGx4WqSHcd
