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.

Senna was faster, popular and talented.
Prost was reliable, 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

Should move this discussion now, to the other thread I made
Johan
State Vice-Captain
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
Johan
State Vice-Captain
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.
