Bobby Fischer vs Paul Morphy

Fischer - 9

Morphy - 18

Hmmmm

What do you mean by strongest?

Maybe it's "in no particular order"??

Chessmetrics puts Morphy at 2700 plus.

 wow! according to Chessmetrics, Morphy has even a higher rating then Fischer.

It should be remembered that, with the current state of flux capacitor technology, there is no way to test theories about what would happen if a player were transported through time. One does not get a guarantee of accuracy from the crunching of a lot of numbers.

"... Morphy became to millions ... the greatest chess master of all time. But if we examine Morphy's record and games critically, we cannot justify such extravaganza. And we are compelled to speak of it as the Morphy myth. ... [Of the 55 tournament and match games, few] can by any stretch be called brilliant. ... He could combine as well as anybody, but he also knew under what circumstances combinations were possible - and in that respect he was twenty years ahead of his time. ... [Morphy's] real abilities were hardly able to be tested. ... We do not see sustained masterpieces; rather flashes of genius. The titanic struggles of the kind we see today [Morphy] could not produce because he lacked the opposition. ... Anderssen could attack brilliantly but had an inadequate understanding of its positional basis. Morphy knew not only how to attack but also when - and that is why he won. ... Even if the myth has been destroyed, Morphy remains one of the giants of chess history. ..." - GM Reuben Fine

It's a mock list dude.  You did notice that Ponomariov was first, right?  Any list that says that is completly false

"Misunderstood Genius" - title of a chapter in a 2014 book about Lasker's games by GM John Nunn

avertisement?

Morphy run out players to play. Fischer decided chess was exhausted. In this parallel world you would have to give Morphy a sight of Fischer's game for a year.
My belief is Fischer would have won based on there being no evidence that Morphy really prepared for strong match play where as we know Fischer did.

"... Emanuel Lasker ... played essentially correct positional chess, ... his signature blend of complex tactics and strategy, and his passionate, all-out fighting style, with psychology playing an important but subordinate role, has become and remains a model for us all to aspire to in the no-holds barred, total chess times that we have inherited in the 21st century. ..." - IM Craig Pritchard (2011)

Is this to trick people into believing you? Not very convicing

yeaha

it would be close

Ponomariov?? jajaja you have to see Morphy and Capablanca´s Games

xd

Fischer had kidney failure.
