Even Nadal has not beaten Peak Federer outside Clay in a Grand Slam, why even single out Djokovic ? Do you think 2008 Federer was peak Federer or what ? Federer's absolute peak ended in Dubai 2007.
Nadal was still similar in 2011 to what he was in 2010. Robbing of speed is nonsense. Nadal was already robbed on speed in 09 and if you look at it that was he was losing speed after that, so why single out 2011? Because he was getting kicked hard that year ?
No, because that would severely hurt the argument about 2024 having tougher competition than 2011, which, of course, is certainly not what I want, hence I agree with him.
Also, I find it quite hypocritical that when prime Djokovic beats declined versions of Federer, Djokovic fans argue that Federer is a weak era champion and that prime Djoker > prime Roger any day of the week, but when prime Sinner beats "supposedly" declined versions of Djokovic, Djokovic fans will never accept the fact that the Djokovic is a weak era champion and that prime Sinner > prime Djokovic
Djokovic at AO 2024 semi-final was clearly better than Federer at WB 2015 final, USO 2015 final and AO 2016 semi-final, but somehow, Djokovic beat "prime" Federer, whilst Sinner never beat prime Djokovic?
Come on, the hypocrisy of Djokovic fans is getting absurd.
