Bobby Fischer chess

I'm a big fan of Bobby Fischer, too bad he never played Kasparov. I believe that he would smash him.

[Gribouillis]

I think Kasparov is stronger. I'm not the only one to think so

In January 2020, Carlsen said, "Kasparov had 20 years uninterrupted as the world No 1. And I would say for very few of those years was there any doubt that he was the best player. He must be considered as the best in history."

Fischer played before computers were available to train chess players. I think it makes a difference. Today's game is different from what it was 40 years ago.

Computers are stronger, anyway.

[Truman]

Well, Kasparov played in a time when computers were weaker than men. I would still bet on Fischer.
