The Best Fighter In The World.............
Pontius. Once perhaps. Not so much nowadays.
Of course having all those tricks doesn't make him a good fighter pilot. Just a good operator in a top notch machine.
The best pistol marksman in the world wouldn't win a fight with a bazooka wielding dude at 300 yards. However if you level the playing field then you may find out who is the best.
In recent history in the RAF that level playing field was the good old Hawk T1. The surest way to find out who actually was as good as they said they were and who was full of p1ss and wind was to go off and play for a couple of trips.
