Wow nice job showing us you don't know shit. Tal only had a 2-game lead lifetime against Fischer, and no wins against Fischer after 1959. There is nothing to suggest Fischer was "less skilled" than ANY of those players. He was the youngest player to qualify for the Candidates, the youngest to become GM, and one of youngest WC ever at age 29.
Also, If Capablanca thought Lasker as superior it certainly didn't prevent him from winning the WC from him in 1921. You fail.
1. Kasparov
2. Alekhine
3. loser
4. loser
5. loser

@TRUEMAN8919 agreed on all except Morphy higher than Spassky at 4 then the rest is accurate to me. Fischer is still the best all rounder.

Lasker dominated them all.
Botwinnik, Alekhine and Capablanca all regarded him as superior to themselves.
Fischer was far less skilled then Kasparov, Karpov or Tal. Tal crushed him multipe times even with health problems.
Petrosian defeated an aged and unambitous Botvinnik. Smyslow also was better then Petrosjan or Botwinnik.
