Bobby Fischer was great , just because he learned more then his opponents (opening theory especially ) from books of course, so he read more books and he was more prepared, he even read Russian books as well , which other GMs could not, so my point is he knew more then the others could.
Now days every one (2750+) knows theory and can do pretty much ANY research on ANY openings, so when Magnus plays he knows more or sometimes even less theory yes yes don't be surprised, his opening theory is not as advanced researched compare to Kramnik for example or Anand, but he still comes up as a tip player and outplays everyone!
Too some this up Fischer was great because his opening theory was much better then the others (of course he was great besides just that ) and Magnus is pure talent different level.

Excellent opinion, but I still think Fischer better,
it is true that in his day it was much more difficult to access the
theoretical news, and he excelled at studying more than his opponents,
but the merit is his!

Fischer was well prepared and well read on the subject, but aside from that he was one of the greatest tacticians to ever live. This combined with his refusal to accept a draw, a true competitor, puts him on a completely different level than any of today’s Champions. And to think he did it with out databases and chess engines.
I heard a story that during a modern tournament the two players where in a rather difficult position when a phone call came into the studio from a man claiming to be Fischer. He claimed white wins with, and rattled of a series of combinations.
I think the two players agreed to a draw but not sure, anyway after the match they went back and analysis the line. Sure enough white had a winning line. No one saw tactics like Fischer.

100% magnus charlsen and anish giri, because if those two wanna draw a game. They will draw, they are draw masters, mostly anish giri, Hikaru is also good, all 3 tied
