Who were these juggernauts that Sampras faced?? Agassi was arguably the best player he played against consistently. Rafter was good too. Chang and Courrier were good players, but no better than top-5 players of today. Phillipossis? Kraciek? Muster? Henman?
Federer has had to play against Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, Agassi, Hewitt, etc...
Sorry, but I think Fed has played better completion than Sampras
Sampras also played Becker and Edberg. And of course the great Marcelo Rios.
Though I agree with you.

Sampras sucked on clay.
I consider Borg to be better than him or Federer. He won six French's on clay and then five Wimbledon's on grass when it was fast as hell. You don't appreciate how awesome a feat that is. Its like a race car driver winning Daytona or Bristol in the same year he wins a top Formula 1 race. There is a reason Foyt and Andretti are considered to be above everyone else.
Sampras had a booming serve, part of it thanks to the racquets but guess what? Borg beat Roscoe Tanner in Wimbledon final and he was serving 150 mph.
and Laver has to be considered to be right up there with Federer. Go watch some Youtube videos. He is sitting there in his 40's holding his own with a young prime Jimmy Connors. You guys don't appreciate how good Laver really was.
