[Coronis]

Yeah sure bud. Senna was HIM

See my edit

Tennis is pretty generic:

Djokovic
Federer
Nadal

With Laver at 4th and Pancho Gonzalez at 5th (the hot take!).

F1:

Schumacher
Hamilton
Senna

Fangio at 4th, Frost at 5th. Verstappen close.

I'd go
Djoker
Rafa
Fed

F1:
Senna
Schumi
Hamilton

Prost, Fangio and Max all close

 

[Coronis]

Jeez Senna so overrated.

Top 10 chess players of all time

Paul Morphy
Bobby Fischer
Magnus Carlsen
Garry Kasporav
Jose Capablanca
Emanuel Lasker
Anatoly Karpov
Mikhail Botvinnik
Alexandar Alekhine
Vishwanath Anand

Morphy’s talent was beyond imagination. Pretty much The W.G Grace of Chess.

His games were played at around 2600 plus ish elo by current standards. Even there he was never tested to his limited, so no one really knows how good he truely was. Regardless, A grand masters level even by today’s standard, that’s literally unbelievable. Fabiano in his podcast mentioned Morphy would have no problem going over 2700 if he was transported from his time to right now in a year. This guy was beyond imagination great. That would put him top 30 in the world. Unbelievable.

Should make another thread for top 10 discussions in all other sports

Is Djokovic called joker too? (Only knew Jokic was called joker)

Yes he is

 

[capt_Luffy]

Djokovic is the joker.

 

[sayon basak]

Djokovic is the joker.

Like how R9 is the Ronaldo?

 

[DrWolverine]

I'd go
Djoker
Rafa

F-1

Senna was faster, popular and talented.

Prost was reliable, successful and methodical.

 

[Coronis]

F-1

Senna more popular and talented.

Prost more successful and methodical.

Actually perhaps a better analogy might be Kobe and Duncan.

I actually had Fed over Joker for WAYYYYYYY too long than explainable. But yeah, after this Gold Medal match vs Alcaraz, can't anymore in good conscience.

It's the exact same for me with Rafa. Although I still believe at their prime (mid 2000s for Fed and late 2000s for Rafa), they touched higher levels than Djoker in his prime. His consistentcy over his entire career though, is just too good to deny now

 

[Thala_0710]

Should move this discussion now, to the other thread I made

Guess you don't know Luffy.

Is WWE a sport?

Probably not, but definitely has the right to have a top 5 as well, I'll go (for WWE)

1. Bret Hart

2. Steve Austin
3. Shawn Michaels
4. Kurt Angle
5. Dwayne Johnson/The Rock

This is just in ring work or overall? Overall taker must be top 3 min

swap Angle with Taker etc, that works


Personally think Shawn > Undertaker overall because Taker had a rough 5-6 years at start of his career.

 

[Johan]

I actually always hated WWE with an outright passion. Have heard a few names back in the day, but would be hard pressed to name anyone more than Rock, John Cena (for movies), Undertaker and that old dude who was in a rap battle with Kim Jong Un's dad. So 3½. Not much interest in MLB (watched only a few YT clips), but can name a few players as I researched for my Greatest sportsperson list. So, I hate to state it like this, but I can almost spew out a 20 Greatest baseballers or some similar ****. NBA recently gained a mild curiosity in, even played a draft here; but far from knowledgeable. NFL is the sport I know **** about, haven't even seen any clips and really can't be bothered for. Still know the name of that Tom dude.
