who is the worst world champion of all time
Sort:
How can someone who is best in the world be worst?
Idk
Max Euwe
You are indeed, in fact Alekhine sobered up the following year just to get it back.
Eh, he did get a lot of draws in the World Championship match, but he is definitely far from the worst champion
Euwe
As a matter of fact, the much maligned Euwe - who actually was an amateur throughout his entire chess caree - went into the 1937 return match as a slight favourite; his results had been better than Alekhine's in the intervening period between the two matches. Also, if you look at the progress of the match, Euwe kept it up very well, and the match was only really decided when Alekhine won the 21st match game to open up a 3 point lead. Euwe himself said afterwards that he probably better chess in the 2nd match, but that he underestimated Alekhine.
Between 1926 and 1931, Euwe played three matches against Alekhine, Bogolyubov and Capablanca: in 1926-27 Euwe lost 4½:5½ to Alekhine (the match was only decided in the final game), in 1928 he was defeated by Bogolyubow 4½:5½, and in 1931, he lost to Capablanca 4:6. These three players contested the world championship in two matches in 1927 (Capablanca-Alekhine) and 1929 (Alekhine-Bogolyubov), and the close results against them over a total of 30 games (13:17), plus the narrow 6½:7½ defeat against the joint AVRO 1938-winner Paul Keres in 1939-40 indicate that there was every reason to consider Max Euwe world class throughout the late 20s and the entire 30s.
That said, it's debatable whether Alekhine and Euwe were the two best players in the world by 1935 (Flohr, Botvinnik, Capablanca still), and they most definitely were not by the time they played the return match in 1937, when players like Botvinnik, Flohr, Reshevsky, Fine, Keres were either on a par or had already surpassed the two title contestants.

He did win 2 of the 4 matches. I'm guessing he's started getting lazy. But he has proven repeatedly he's better than Karjakin & Caruana even if the classical portion was tied. Such as the overall score against each of them, # of tournaments won & average finish, rating, consistency, etc.
I think Magnus has started losing his determination & motivation (to explain the 2 tied title matches) because he's accomplished everything there is to accomplish in chess. Every possible title AND was #1 in every time control at the same time. He was even Fischer Random champion while he was #1 in all time controls. Nobody else can duplicate that. So yeah, Im ok with him taking his foot off the gas in those 2 tied title matches.
Nope. Wesley So utterly destroyed Magnus in the first official FIDE World 960 Championship finals match.

First the question who was the "worst"? With no explanation as to what that even means.
The it became: "...unsportmanlike the meanest the most unfair."
I dont even think the OP knows what he is asking.

Fischer
