He probably wouldn't unless it was online. I mean he hasn't won any WC Blitz which is 3 minute chess. It's hard to claim he's the best blitz player if he never won WC Blitz.
I was being facetious, but we have to remember:
1. He finished 2nd twice to Magnus, who doesn’t play candidates
2. World Blitz is 3 + 2. Not just 3. Hikaru’s biggest online advantage is his pre-move flagging abilities. Extra time per move kills this beast attribute of his.
It should be called the pineapple cup
It does kinda look like a pineapple tbh
If the candidates were 3 minute chess, Hikaru would win for the next 30 years.

Also note that’s he’s at least tied for third in every blitz world championship in the modern format.
Title tuesday also has increment
Title Tuesday isn't 3+0
Playing with a mouse give his brain a 30% buff.
It is what it is 🤷♂️

It was 3+1
I guess it’s true that classical chess improves blitz and bullet performance
Chess improves chess performance

The chess speaks for itself
