Nadal isn't even the most dominant in his sport in recent memory. Djokovic and Federer are better.

If you're talking about one athlete at a particular venue, then yeah I'll agree with Nadal at the French Open.

I love tennis and Nadal’s my 2nd favorite of all time after Agassi, but if you’re not a troll or a 14-year-old girl, then…..ooooooooooooooooooooof.

The GOAT of GOATS is Wayne Gretzky.

I know a lot of you don’t follow hockey, but no one dominated his sport like The Great One.

Think of the GOATS:

Tom Brady, Jerry Rice, whoever for football

Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Willie Mays for baseball

Jordan for basketball

Nicklaus, Palmer or Woods for golf.

Boxing is a tough one- probably Ray Robinson, but there’s a bunch in the mix.

None of them are most dominant in there sport like Wayne Gretzky.

That’s where you argument falls apart. The most dominant athlete of all time doesn’t have two other contemporaries with very similar accomplishments.

It’s because you know nothing about tennis. Stop trying to convince yourself those there aren’t easily the the greatest athletes ever

What a moron you are. It helps further their cases even more. This has never happened in any other sport.

Nope, not at all. I’m genuinely right, and I’m not one of those people that thinks that ever. But I have the facts to back it up and I did. I will always consider those three tennis players the most dominant athletes of all time. Gretzky and Phelps come close. I could put them in the same tier as the big 3.

The majority of the world agrees with me. I’m posting this on a site where people don’t know tennis at all. This is what I expected but I’m just trying to educate y’all.

No athletes have had to go head to head against the three other best players in their respective sport for almost two decades. And all three of them equally dominated basically. This is history that will never be repeated. By the way, all three of them completely shattered every tennis record. The Big 3 will be the most prestigious group in sports history. And it’s not even frickin close.

Well educated sports fans do. You are welcome to ask me any other questions about the big 3 and why each of them has an easy claim to be the most dominant athlete of all time. Like I said, Phelps and Gretzky belong in the same tier.

Gretzky or Hudson are my guesses

Teofilo Stepheson deserves mention but we never got to see him as a pro

Jerry Rice says hold my beer.

Nevermind, didn't know Gretzky was THAT far ahead of his peers. Jagr played over 250 more games and still finished 936 points behind him.

Yeah they all dominated the sport completely. They each broke every record and did it against each other. No other sport will ever have that opportunity. These records will stay for the rest of history.
