8 out of the 13 slams won by Rafa are the FO.
Roger has at least 4 from each of the slams outside of the FO. That is why Roger is the GOAT.

Re: Nadal down a set/break to Stan, gets injured
I'm Kobe's biggest fan and always will be. And you suggesting that Kobe is not currently at the forefront of the pack is a testament to the fact that you are not a Kobe fan, and never will be.gainesvillejjstalker wrote:What we've learned is, you're a frontrunner of a fan and you cheer for whoever is #1 at any given time. First it was Kobe, now it's Lebron and Nadal. Well sorry to burst your proverbial bubble, son, but Nadal isn't surpassing Federer and Lebron is a coward.kobeunderbite wrote:So we have now learned that the former inmate is unable to distinguish between team and individual sports.
Awesome.

I like Fed better than Nadal and I could give 2 shits about underbite or any poster. Your making statements against me to fit your own agenda. H2H is huge when comparing players in individual sports...especially in a sport like tennis. It's impossible to ignore. If Mayweather had fought Pacqiao 10 times and only won 3 of the fights no one would say he is better just because he had a few more career wins.

Re: Nadal down a set/break to Stan, gets injured
I don't know if you've noticed, but he doesn't actually care about this discussion and has never made any sort of insightful comment re: Tennis on any message board. The deepest it goes is hyping Federer over Nadal in order to attempt to antagonize me. He has admitted as much.manchild98 wrote:I like Fed better than Nadal and I could give 2 shits about underbite or any poster. Your making statements against me to fit your own agenda.

You can look at H2H, if you'd like, there are aspects in tennis that determine a winner most of the time.manchild98 wrote:I like Fed better than Nadal and I could give 2 shits about underbite or any poster.

Nadal has an edge over Rafa, 10-23. Lets take a look at that a bit closer.
Out of the 33x these 2 have played, 15 have been on the clay. Edge Nadal 13-2
Grass-2-1 for Roger.
HC-9-6 for Rafa.
Rafa is the GOAT on clay, that is not questioned. However, combine Grass and HC, the discrepancy is much less, 11-8.
As I have stated before, majority of Rafa GS are at the FO. Roger has at least 4 GS from 3 out of the 4. Rafa still has plenty of work to be considered GOAT. Dominating on a single GS in tennis does make you the GOAT, you need to start winning elsewhere more often.
