These 3 guys at their best would absolutely obliterate Rod Laver at his best. But is that a fair comparison? Look at the differences in rackets, strings, courts, balls, nutrition, coaches, money, stats, technology, training, and on and on. Even McEnroe and Sampras were way behind in most of these categories.
It's definitely not a fair comparison. The best way to make it apples-to-apples is to compare guys against their own peers. How much better were they than the other top players.
Same deal with other sports. Can't really use raw numbers in baseball or basketball when some eras have been slower or more pitcher friendly. So you just ask how much better was a guy than everybody else in the league.
