It can't be true. According to the chess personality quiz Naka is the exact opposite in style to myself, so therefore he can't be the best. Simple.

Bobby is no longer "in" the world.

There is a video where he takes that quiz and gets a different personality.

Ratings are somewhat like currency, meaning that absolute numbers representing a certain value have a steady tendency to get inflated over time.

That put aside, did anyone after Fischer dominate the chess world as much as he did in the late 1960s/early 1970s (most iconic example of said domination being the Candidates Tournament in 1971 where he obliterated both Taimanov and Larsen 6:0)?

Kasparov's early world championship matches against Karpov dragged on endlessly, and even after claiming the title from he always had Karpov close behind him. As for Carlsen, I don't think he exerts a dominance as strong as Fischer once did either.
