20 to 30 years from now when all we have to look at is the stats, maybe you will be right. But you honestly think if Djoker gets most weeks at number one and gets 21 or 22 slams everyone is going to just start loving him? Don't see the narrative changing so dramatically.
I think what he is saying is that it won't matter how much he was/is loved if he gets the records. I don't understand how this became a main talking point anyway. It's like after Djokovic took over it's the first thing someone says that is supposed to be a negative, because what else is there to say? Tom Brady is one of the most disliked qb's in NFL history, in fact I loathe him, but he is one of the most respected, and most likely the greatest. Mac was a lot more popular than Lendl but today Lendl is way more respected. At the end of the day, it's the records that trumps everything else.
