Kyrgios vs Becker

As much as I don’t care for Kyrgios, he destroyed Becker. The way Boris tried to pivot and saying Kyrgios should be winning slams when slams are all on hold because players like Zverev aren’t doing as told and preventing the spread of Covid. Becker fought the wrong fight, absolute clown.

Nope, only one. Becker’s comments boggle the mind. A rat? Stays in the locker room? What the heck does Novak’s team think a global pandemic is??

I think Becker’s point is that it’s not going to do Kygrios any favours. Narcissistic Nick is doing this stuff not becuase he cares about the pandemic but because like every narcissist is desperate for attention.

While Nick may be currently bathing in the superficial glow of being a responsible Covid citizen, deep down he knows that he is creating more tension for himself. When someone gives him so much as a funny look he will take it the wrong way and it will be a good excuse, at least in his mind, for why he gets rolled again in the early round of a tournament.

Boris just picked a wrong one to fight . He got taken down badly. This is what one has to be careful when you go against Nick. He is a no holds barred guy and calls spade a spade

What the heck is Boris talking about locker room unspoken code ? This is not some gossip to be kept secret . Absolutely Zverev , Adrian tour all deserve the criticism

idc about Nick. Becker called him a rat. This has nothing to do with loyalty or keeping it in the locker room. It was an international Sporting event held during a global pandemic, everyone saw it.

Boris just thought he needs to do Sasha a favor, wants to coach him eventually, after all.
Then conjured some Omerta stuff and it back-fired. Was a stupid idea, no? Especially calling K a rat and implying he "betrayed" a fellow player.
You can bet B won't lose too much sleep over this...

I don't have an issue with what Nick said - yes it's Nick Kyrgios, who's a fine one to talk in many instances, but here anyone could be condemning Zverev and I'd agree on the premise he didn't self isolate for 14 days as you're advised to. Remember, this guy has been in extremely close contact (physical, right?!) with what, 5 people who have tested positive for the virus? We KNOW that certain sections of society are particularly vulnerable to this, so passing it to someone who then passes it to someone can literally kill someone!

Online dirty fighting is Kyrgios territory... Becker had no chance...

There is a saying... Never fight a pig in a mud, pig will drain you in all that dirt, it is pig's territory... Just let pig enjoy it's stinking paradise...

Unfortunately, Kyrgios only can fight online fight, not the tennis court battles...

so surprising.
Nick has a point, but unfortunately it throws a shadow on the mightiest player ever known to humans, so here we have the fanbois starting to criticize Nick.

Becker could've made his point a lot more eloquently. Not sure why he said things should stay in the locker-room, could've phrased it better by simply saying that Kyrgios should talk to Zverev directly instead of putting him on blast on social media.

He wasn't implying that though. Zverev doesn't even have any slams so don't get how you came to that conclusion

1. so what he was trying to say? with the "fulfill his potential and win a grandslam"
2. how is NK fulfilling his potential and win a GS connected to Zverev walking in the streets when he promised to self isolate?
