GOAT. Toni says it's Federer, not Nadal

[Paullaconte1]

I think that Uncle Toni is trying just to give some more extra motivation to Rafa just before he comes back to train.

I still think there is not such concept as a GOAT

So, he didn't mention Fed, just a dude who is .500 in slam finals - a guy who has won more than one slam in a year once?

Did he mention Donald Young?

Multi-slam seasons are a big deal for you aren't they Antonio?! :shock:

If you aspire to be one of the greatest ever, yes, I would advise winning more than one slam a year.

At his current rate, Djoker will be the GOAT at age 40... assuming Fed and Nadal never win another slam

Well nadal won 5 slams since djokovic hit his peak in 2011.... only 1 less than the serb despite missing 3 slams in 2012-2014...

Federer only won 1 slam in the last 4 years...

The odds are Nadal has quite a few to win, not sure about federer, he might get 1 more, probably not.

At this rate, I am afraid there'll be a huge locker room brawl/spat between Uncle and Neph. Rafa says he is better than Roger, Uncle says Roger is better.

Waiting for Johnnie Mack to report from outside the restroom/locker room.

This will eclipse the Roger / Stan spat.

You are wrong! That's what they are doing:

Toni means greater, I think. Federer is more talented, Nadal more strong mentally.. Federer has the greater resume. etc.

LOL !!

I think some Nadal fans (one or two actually, to be exact) also felt the same way about Stan and Roger, that their fight was manufactured to distract the French team.

So for all you know, maybe Stan and Rog are also laughing away like this.


^ I know, Cup8489, I was just kidding.

Toni has always said this. Or some variation of it. It's not new news. That why his nephew says it constantly as well.
