Greatest Chess Matches

Different eras. And Fischer would likely lose to a prime Kasparov.

 

Fischer vs Spassky...

 

lol..its a chess joke.....they are chess players

 

Roy Jones vs James toney was kind of sorta of a chess match...

 

Actually if my chess history is right,,,both convincingly and repeatedly beat a pre world champion Bobby Fisher.

 

It really is impossible to tell with these two prime for prime, Karpov was essentially Kasparov's equal so you have to throw him in the mix here also.

 

haha damn! i've been outta the chess scene too long...

 

Kind of pulling your leg here,,,,both are former world chess champions.

 

you chess bitches need to get in on the esb games we got going gamecube...

but yea i feel Jones and toney is a good pick

 

Wasn't the Bobby Fisher vs. Boris Spassky chess match held in Iceland.

Ok,,,,,,on a lighter note.

Doug Jones vs. Cassius Clay

 

yes it was

 

Karpov was strong and played Kaspa on nearly even terms in their career series, but Kaspa held a 2800 FIDE for nearly a decade, something Karpov never acheived. Kaspa was also at his peak in the 90's, well after his primary games with Karpov.

Kaspa/Fischer in their primes would have great--both otherworldly tacticians.

 

Sorry 2confuse you, this is a wind-up, they were actual chess players. The Byrne-Fischer game was played when Bobby Fischer was a kid (13 I think) against an adult grandmaster & is referred 2 as 'the game of the century', its probably the most famous single game of chess ever played.

Greatest ever chess 'match' is Kasparov vs Karpov for the world championship in 1985. Kasparov winning in an epic after 30 odd games.

 

Would have been the greatest game, just something to consider here...
Kasparov had a lot more support from the 'Soviet chess machine' than Fischer ever recieved. Also, after the candidate cycle before his match with Spassky, after beating Taimanov & Larson 6-0 Fischer had a provisional FIDE rating of over 3000! Something I dont think will ever equalled. :deal
In a fist fight I'd go with Gary, Bobby looks a bit fragile 2 me.:!:

 

Terry Marsh was a junior chess champion, I'd pick him to beat all the above mentioned fighters at chess and all the above mentioned chess players at boxing.
