He is occasionally mentioned in discussions about the greatest players never to become World Champion, or about the greatest attacking players of all time.
He tends to be considered an elite player (top 10 standard) despite his lack of accomplishments, as his flashy games are well remembered.
Fischer had the best 2 years in a row EVER!!! Prove me wrong.

And in the mentioned ranking he is placed ahead of Botvinnik, Smyslov, Spassky, Petrosian etc which is strange to say the least...

Thank you so much 😊
Capa didn't lose for 8 years, so basically didn't lose for 2 years as well.

First, we both know the competition in the 1920s was MUCH weaker. Second, look up how many games Capa played in that span 🤦🏻♂️ Please try again. 👍🏼

Sorry, I hadn´t seen that comment. Obviously, placing him above those great players is nonsense.

Hey @Levent_Acemi, depending on your source, some credible estimates have Capa playing about 63 games dying that 8 year undefeated streak?!?🤔 That’s an average of 8 games a year?!? 😳. Bobby played 63 games in one year 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Yeah, sorry, your argument was just defeated soundly. 🎤 drop 🤣.
@habelhaft how is Nezhmedtinov overrated? He didn't even get the GM title, he never was considered one of the strongest Soviet players, etc.
