Yes, of course. It's a ridiculous question. How did you even think of asking such a ridiculous question here? I understand if you were asking: who here hasn't yet managed to beat a titled player? But you asked that nonsense. And you're addressing titled chess players, too. For example, even I (and I'm by no means the strongest player here) have hundreds of such victories (not just on Lichess). For example, on Lichess, my win rate against various masters (national, FIDE, international) is currently around 35% (I keep statistics for myself; I understand that the masters who play against me are slightly below average among masters; but on the other hand, I've managed to score a whopping 35% against them). That means, on average, in every 100 games against masters (national, FIDE, international) on Lichess, I've scored 35 points. I have a good score against quite a few masters (both on and off Lichess). For example, 6.5:2.5 in my favor against a master, and many others like that. And you're asking such nonsense... And I received the title of Candidate Master of Sport in chess in my country (not to be confused with a similar international title) 25 years ago (I easily confirmed it several times, as required, and then threw it away as unnecessary, stopping playing in official tournaments). On Lichess, this title is not recognized as a title, but it's almost like the CM title, which is recognized as a title on Lichess (but a little simpler, requiring confirmation every three years). It's also called that - Candidate Master. In my country, in my time, it was not customary to hold the CM title. We became Candidate Masters of Sport in chess. And I didn't even know about the CM title back then. All the Candidate Masters of Sport in chess around me had exactly the same title as me. And the next step for us was to become a national or FIDE master.

Yes, but so what? You're only as good as your last victory. And untitled players may get more enjoyment out of the game.
