Winning 2 on a surface is just better than winning one but it isn't dominant. You remove each of their best slams and Roger dominates. You remove their 2 best slams and Roger dominates. Roger plays RG on real clay and Rafa plays Wimbledon on the Madrid of "grass". Roger obviously played like shit in that final and the 2015 final but still would've done a lot better without the retarded "grass" they play on at Wimbledon that is way worse for his game.

I don't know what planet you live on (maybe it's called Fedtardus B-)), but here on planet Earth there's no such thing as "removing a surface" or "focusing on only 2 out of 3 surfaces". Tennis is a 3 surface sport, and the weakest link will always be Federer on clay/RG.

If you want to just focus on 2 out of 3, then I can also focus on 1 out of 3 and then nobody would ever be able to claim that they are as dominant as Rafa on clay/RG. At RG Rafa has 11 titles and 86-2 record, at WB Federer has 8 titles and 95-12 record, so I can argue that Federer on grass or hardcourt is NOT dominance, not even close.

You're the one basing everything on weakest surface, sum of the parts is more important. No matter how you massage the stats the bottom line is Federer is way way superior to Nadal on every surface except clay (include indoor hards where your guy can't even win a YEC). Novak is the same, way way superior on everything except clay.

@Carol, thank you for liking my post. Now you can see why Federer fans have banned me from other forums, it’s because I challenge them with facts and intelligence, and they are left speechless and with no answers. B-) So what do they do? They ban. :rolleyes: They feel threatened whenever someone doesn’t worship Federer and exposes the many flaws in his GOATness. Have a nice day my friend ;)

Some Federer’s fans (not every one) are crossing the line of the ridiculous and fanatism, they like to show how much they admirer him and when you don’t think the same way then they don’t like you, pity :cry::rolleyes: :help:

Let's look at Slam finals.

Federer
Hard: 14
Clay: 5
Grass: 11

Nadal
Hard: 8
Clay: 11
Grass: 5

Djokovic
Hard: 14
Clay: 4
Grass: 5

All three players have appeared in at least 4 Slam finals on every surface type. What that tells us is that all three were great on all three surfaces.

Losing to Roger on grass, Nadal on clay, or Novak on hards--or any of them on any surface, really--is not a shameful thing and doesn't make one not great.

No matter what way you slice it, we're looking at the three greatest players of the Open Era, possibly/probably of all time. People can endlessly try to bash the other two all they want, but in my view it is just silliness. "My Favorite is the Best Evar!"

Sure, feel that your favorite is the best, but it is beyond ridiculous to suggest that the other two aren't great in their own right, and at the very least close to as great--if not equal--to your personal favorite.

@El Dude Nadal has 8 hardcourt finals. Even when you guys are trying to give a compliment to innocent humanitarian Nadal you still manage to put him down :facepalm:

The kids voted “ Most popular” in high school, in hindsight were sometimes the most boring and generic.
The interesting and quirky ones rarely got any recognition at the time.

Yet you guys brag about Federer being popular. :rolleyes: But then again he is kind of boring and generic B-)

No, Carol I can assure you I read my own posts and would never claim to be different than what I actually am myself as you just did with the moronic post I last replied to. It's no secret I hate Nadal but I don't claim to be a saint either and neither should you. And you clearly do not read your own posts or else you're just delusional. Your replies sound like a teenager btw. Some comeback there. It's like kids going "you're a clown" and the reply is "no, you are". Amazing stuff.

Well, we know that you hate Nadal so you should start to read your own comments full of hatred and then be a man to get well the responds to your constantly provocative comments before to critic to anyone calling "clown" which is completely unacceptable

It's completely acceptable if you've read 90% of his comments here and you've called people way worse than that yourself here miss goodie two shoes. I post a lot more about actual tennis here than you do but I also reply to stupid comments here and there are many. It's the nature of forums for sports, etc that people don't agree on things. That doesn't make them provocative, it just means I don't agree with a lot of the stuff people say here. They can say the same about me, I couldn't care less. What's hilarious though is you claiming to be so high and mighty and talking bs about so called "Federer fanatics" and failing to realize you're an even bigger "Nadal fanatic" yourself. Embarrassing.

Since when you are posting actual tennis more than I do? are you kidding me? your comments always are about Federer and then trying to say something bad about Nadal so please when you say something about "embarrassing" (again) read your own comments and then.....

Talking about news....Delpo won't participate at the Laver Cup because he feels "too tired" but I've read that the real reason is because it's going to be his Birthday and he wants to celebrate it with his family and friends. I don't know how long that "exhibition" is going to last....
