You might want to include Emanuel Lasker as well.  He was pretty good.

Xenia plays an extreme version.  Her opponents rarely get beyond the middlegame.  Kasparov, Fischer?  Hah.  Carlsen....roll eyes.

Xenia's still around after the game.  She has to be #1.

 

edit to your edit - no offence, but Xenia was bored.  ;)


 Xenia was bored with what we were doing so she said she thought chess was boring? I don't follow your logic. (We weren't playing chess BTW.)

Ivanchuck Norris is without a doubt one of the toughest players alive.  He could probably take out practically anyone in chess kickboxing.

Atos

I reckon that Tyson would be the toughest to face in "OTB".

any of you hear of chess-boxing matches?  where they go rounds boxing and playing chess, I wonder if there have been female matches of chess-boxing?

trysts

Xenia did beat Spassky, Botvinnik, and Karpov! Though she never played them in chessWink

I'm holding out for chess-mudwrestling, involving Xenia if possible.

Xenia's talents certainly do extend beyond chess.  :)

In a chess game, think she'd crush them? 


She would definitely crush them! Now, would she win a chess game?

The 'S' key on my keyboard doesn't work, so I have to use another key instead.

You should have said,

"The  key between A and D on my keyboard doecn't work, co I have to uce another key inctead."


Woops!  Busted!
