There are a few names that really don't belong up there. I mean, Karpov, for one never dominated. Kasparov was able to pretty thoroughly beat him. And even he would lose to Fischer... so. Also, Anand... isn't he already second to Carlsen, who we all agree can't even come close (in terms of dominating the field) to the true champions like Fischer, Morphy, Steinitz, Capablanca, and Lasker?
