Certainly not.
Next question.

Federer is better at 3/4 slams, the YEC and has the joint record at Nole’s pet slam.

Someone with a 81 match winning streak on clay is a baby rafa???..!!! (2005-07 nadal)
And someone losing 20 matches in a year, including 6 on clay is peak rafa???!!!!!! (2015)
And djok has been extremely lucky in h2h vs fed and nad, not being good enough to reach them when he's in decline

Also made two Wimbledon finals as Baby Rafa.
Peak Rafa owned peak Fed on clay that’s all.
The other part of your post is irrelevant.
Federer is better than Nole across all surfaces apart from slow HC and Rome clay (for consistency, 06 performance could match Nole peak for peak)
Rafa stopped being a baby in 2005 when he reached number 2, dominated clay, won 3 HC tournaments including 2 masters, had one of his best seasons ever winning 11 titles.

Are you sure about that?

More like even Baby Rafa could beat the wear era clowns and be number 2.

Nadal was already washed up at 25, Federer became a grandpa before turning 30 and has sucked in pretty much all of his career losses, Murray plays like junk for 90% of the time anyway unlike all of the warrior-like competitors from the previous decade, led by his namesake, so Djokovic (who throughout his 12+ seasons has also only faced opponents when it favors him because he hardly ever goes through slumps and declines like them, not to mention has had every single court on the Tour made perfectly for his game) couldn't prove himself against a decent field, and thus shouldn't even be in any ATG conversation, yet alone something higher than that.

If 04-07 is weak how do you describe 2014-present? Probably weakest era of all time in which Nole racked up over half his slams LOL.

Now we are talking. It will be hard to chew it for some, but Novak is and will be cemented as best tennis player that ever played the game.

That is the right approach from Fed fans - accept dire future

Only the 740th thread on this same topic. Getting seriously old at this point. Usually Djokovic fans don’t bother asking if he’s GOAT, they merely proclaim it as fact.

It's always a little frightening to see a reasoned, rational post here.

No, 03-07 is the weakest.
