Funny how you need to use the most cherry picked stat ever in order to prove something.The "rivalry"
Prime for prime, bud.“Since”
“Off”
22-22 bestie, let’s ride
Nadal, obviously, likes to think Federer was his main rival........hahahahahaha.
Prime for prime, bud.
Get familiar with the 15-2 too.I remember 2>1 quite well, no need to remind me
Nadal’s main rival is Federer to the casual, his main rival is Djokovic to the true tennis fan.Yes, along with everyone else on planet earth, LOL
Get familiar with the 15-2 too.
Djokovic has played both Nadal and Federer more they played each other. Much more really.And yet, Djokovic will still never be viewed as Nadal's main rival LOL
Imagine being both Federer AND Djokovic's main rival!?

No, no, my man. That myth has been busted.Yes, along with everyone else on planet earth, LOL
Fair to say that Nadal’s main rival in the 00s was Federer and Djokovic in the 10s.
Rivalry is not all about the number of matches.Djokovic has played both Nadal and Federer more they played each other. Much more really.
Novak was there for 2010-2013. Rafa was still very much in his peak.Exactly. Nadal is BOTH their main rival. When Rafa was at his peak in the most important matches it was Federer who was there though, Novak came much later.

That's actually part of it, yes. Djokovic has also played them both in Slams more than they played each other and had epic matches with both.Rivalry is not all about the number of matches.
I love how Novak fans throw grass in there like they’re not 2-2 against each other on the surface, with Novak’s last win 5 years ago being a 5 set nail biter.
Keep distorted and deluding, never change.
That's actually part of it, yes. Djokovic has also played them both in Slams more than they played each other and had epic matches with both.
That's exactly what he said. He also said he hopes to play Nadal in the final at RG.Basically this is what Djokovic is saying to Nadal...
The stone being the McDonald's of this world.
And yet, Djokovic will still never be viewed as Nadal's main rival LOL

“You hear that, Mr Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability“
”What agenda?“
To me, his rivalry with them is better than the one they had with each other. Their rivalry pales in comparison in my opinion and is more media driven.Djokovic beats Nadal and Federer multiple times in their own kingdoms, but he is not the main rival.

Here you are wrong. Very few of these matches can be called epic. Or you belong to this group of users who think AO 2019 final was epic?That's actually part of it, yes. Djokovic has also played them both in Slams more than they played each other and had epic matches with both.
I’m sure if Djokovic was American or British it would be covered more.It was only in the media bc it was actually THAT good. Tennis hasn’t been on that level since.
Was it? I disagree with that last statement. Lol.It was only in the media bc it was actually THAT good. Tennis hasn’t been on that level since.
Djokovic has legendary matches with Fedal. Matches that will be talked about long after they've retired. Obviously that doesn't include AO 2019.Here you are wrong. Very few of these matches can be called epic. Or you belong to this group of users who think AO 2019 final was epic?
Each one of the big three are each other's main rival, or so it seems to me.And yet, Djokovic will still never be viewed as Nadal's main rival LOL

That's exactly what he said. He also said he hopes to play Nadal in the final at RG.
That would be EPIC.
At RG.This was what popped into my head.
Djokovic as Achilles and Nadal as Hector.....Djokovic doesn't want Nadal to fade away to the like of McDonalds. He wants it to be the right way, taking out Nadal himself.
To me, his rivalry with them is better than the one they had with each other. Their rivalry pales in comparison in my opinion and is more media driven.
Both matches Nadal won of course. Lol. I would think tennis peaked in 2012-2013 when Djokovic and Nadal were pushed to the brink by each other at their pet Slams, as well as the overall quality especially in 2012, but that's just my opinion.Yea, it really was lol. Tennis peaked with the Wimbledon 08 and AO 09 finals
Nolefan did NOT say that ALL Nole-Nadal matches were epic. Many though, were.Here you are wrong. Very few of these matches can be called epic. Or you belong to this group of users who think AO 2019 final was epic?
Of course he wants to face the easiest possible competition. I don't remember him or his fans ever wanting to face prime Nadal in RG.This was what popped into my head.

Yup. Epic matches with both at RG and Wimbledon, epic match with Federer at USO, Nadal at AO, etc. Who can forget the 2012 WTF final? That's not including Masters matches.Agree. He has played both more in slams than they have played each other, he also have played overall more matches against both also. He has also defeated BOTH at all four slams and the WTF final.
Of course he wants to face the easiest possible competition. I don't remember him or his fans ever wanting to face prime Nadal in RG.

This year's RG final :
Yeah, sure. Interesting enough, Djokovic fans get upset when someone hypes a win over even a decent version of Djokovic, forget about a bad one.No, he knows NEVER to underestimate Nadal. That is the ultimate sign of respect that even after the bad show of form these past few months, the real Nadal can come back, and Djokovic is fully expecting him to.
We give credit, where it's due.......Yeah, sure. Interesting enough, Djokovic fans get upset when someone hypes a win over even a decent version of Djokovic, forget about a bad one.
