Who do you think would win in a wrestling match: Bobby Fischer, Jose Capablanca, Garry Kasparov, Anatoly Karpov, Vladimir Kramnik, Wilhelm Steinitz, Paul Morphy, or Aron Nimzowitch?

Fischer, he always was in shape,

Avatar of Tricklev

Fischer was hardly the only chessplayer in shape, pretty much everyone (after Botvinnik) made sure to take care of their body.

I'd bet my money on Botvinnik.

Avatar of goldendog

Fischer and Botvinnik should have had a long walk-off.

Avatar of ringwraith10

i think kasparov would be the winner

he looks tough

Avatar of ringwraith10

no they haven't

because some were dead when some were alive

 

it would be interesting, however, to see somethihng like that happening

Avatar of goldendog

Well, Blackburne threw Steintz out a window for spitting on him.

Lasker, if he could get his vest off.

chess is a violent game

so many innocents die on the board everytime i play Frown

Avatar of gumpty

In the last few years of his life Fischer would have knocked the other seven out at once......with his armpits.

Seriously though, i reckon Kasparov, he looks to be quite strong!

Avatar of CPawn

I would have to go with Kasparov because he seems the smartest of the bunch.

i dont know for sure, but Kasparove and Fischer were no doubt very smart.  But Fischer emotionally was immature.  Anger and immaturity are sometines mistaken for toughness.  Kasparov takes em all.

Avatar of kissinger

very interesting question, why didn't i think of it???  During the "brawl" would the participants be allowed to use chess pieces as weapons????? the queen or king can be used like a knife in a fight, and a marble chess board could crack open a man's skull!!!!  yup why didn't i think of this??!!

Hey, Ringwraith(someone), I would recommend you fighting Fischer and seeing you lose.

Avatar of Krish30

capa owns all of them by grabbing the title belt and hitting each of them with it lol Smile

Avatar of ringwraith10

kasparov would get angry at capablanca and then he would take the wooden queen and smash it on capablanca's nose and then jose would cry and run to his mommy

Kramnik is the right answer here my friends.
