Injury management and fitness are part of the sport. Also, Djokovic beat Nadal fair and square multiple times when both were in top-notch shape. These dudes are experts at giving backhanded compliments
And Nadal beat Novak multiple times when they were in tip top shape. lol You getting triggered at someones opinion.
@@MishaWilson This is a very subtle way of being in denial. Also, the h2h speaks for itself. Nadal considers 2010-2013 to be his peak period. Check the h2h during that tenure. You'll get the answers. Height of pettiness. I won't be surprised if people start comparing both on the basis of bicep sizes when they run out of all the arguments
@@datapro007 What about the overall H2H and total GS victories, weeks at #1 and the endless list of stats? 😂 No one needs permission to pick and enjoy their favourites but when someone denies 2+2 isn't 4 and they try to cover it with vague BS, there's definitely an issue. They're just screaming to the world that they're petty losers. 0 grace
@@Ath24.AUM97 Djokovic is better than nadal in hard surfaces....Nadal is better on clay. Its not as simple as black and white.
But some players are naturally prone to injuries because they have more sensitive bodies.
Many talented players in every sport had to retire early because their bodies can not keep up.
@@datapro007 Incorrect. Keep trying. I guess you're Mr.JumptoConclusions
His nephew said that the highest level of tennis he had ever seen was that of Djokovic. He first said it in 2011, then again in 2015 after Monte Carlo and 2016 after Doha. He reaffirmed his stance in 2019 after the Australian Open final.
Toni Nadal has himself said that now that Novak is clearly ahead in the GOAT race he seems very unhappy 😂...these kind of things hapeen in life too when people don't expect u to do better than them but when u eventually do they are bitter like this man and when u don't they praise u to the sky and ll even say u were more talented....Jealousy at that level is normal...
he cant say otherwise. On clay maybe with some rare occasion Nadal could beat Federer in straight sets forever. So he basically figured him out, but with Djokovic on any surface Nadal was unsure of the victory. So I can see his logic. And nobody is arguing that Federer's top tennis is beyond godlike, but tennis isnt only about flashy winners 24/7. Good players know this and downplay those agressive "superstars"

First, he says that Djokovic is the best in terms of the numbers but doesn't mention that Djokovic is the greatest of all time. Then he adds that his nephew would be the best if he hadn’t been injured so often. To me, that just sounds like the words of a sore loser.
Of course Nadal family is soare losers.
The words of a person who loves his nephew and his family, very understandable and his opinion is as valid as anyone else's

@@initialize21 irony 🤣
He's entitled to his opinion of course, but he and his nephew keep coming across like they have some personal beef with Djokovic. It doesn't seem too graceful to come out with the injury stuff with Nadal every single interview and make it seem like Djokovic didn't go through body (and mind) problems himself. He lost two years from mid 2016-mid 2018 to physical and motivational problems and his early career was also marred until he changed his diet and mindset. Djokovic didn't reach all that he could have either. Add to this that even with injuries considered, Nadal's record outside of clay really pales in comparison to Djokovic's 2011-2023 overall domination.
Agree.. also let’s not disregard the at least 2 to 3 more grand slams Novak could not play or tournaments not held because Covid/vaccinations where he was the clear favorite
He acts as if injuries are not an integral part of the sport, but some kind of cosmic force acting on the players. If you push your body beyond its limits to achieve better results, you also risk an injury. You are subject to risk at a higher percentage than the rest of the players. Novak is known for his special way of fitness, diet, and mentality when it comes to tennis. And he, just like Nadal, could have forced every shot, run like a raging bull at every drop shot, but he didn't, and thus he was less injured. This kind of argument that Toni makes reminds me of a similar reasoning that justifies losers in combat sports, like, "If he didn't get tired in the 6th round, he wouldn't get knocked out." Yes, but that's a losing fighter's strategy. He went hard in the early rounds, failed to knock out his opponent, gassed out early, and lost. The same case with Nadal in tennis, if your approach is such that you go 100% on every ball, you will either get tired or you will get injured.
Djokovic hasn't overall dominated from 2011 to 2023. It started from 2015 , ended in 2017 and then continued on and off til 2023.
@@lysander6458Djokovic dominated 2011

No, the highest level ever was Federer. He reached the highest peak. He could make the others look normal on his day

That backhand at 0:22 was close 😅
„High Level Tennis Training“
Uncle Toni forgot to say that Djokovic won the most titles PLAYING AGAINST Federer and Nadal.
Rafa had injuries when he had to play Wimbledon and USO, but almost never on clay, where he won
14 GS titles, compared to 8 GS titles at the other three Major tournaments ( AO,WMBLDN,USO).
It is also hard to justify seven consecutive FINALS losses to Djokovic in 2011clay season to 2012 AO.
If Rafa was " injured" he would not be in the finals of all those tournaments.
In the end, it is Rafa with 59 wins at Wimbledon, and 69 wins at USO, not Novak,,who has at least 90 at
all four GS tournaments.
nobody said nadal was injured in 2011 idk who you arguing with😂pretty sure Tony meant injuries throughout the entire career
@@redtord7194 I have heard and seen the " injury " argument from Nadal fans on social media in the past, but to claim, or even try to imply/insinuate that Nadal would leave Federer and Djokovic far behind only if he was born without the foot condition probably does not take into account Roger's s battle with mono , or Novak's s early career setbacks before he discovered breathing problems due to deviated septum and lack of energy due to gluten intolerance.
@@djordjelezajic8435 the thing is you can't compare these, all time wise the conditions Nadal been born with led to more injuries like a chain of events to the point he missed like 3 years of majors due to injury. Nadal calls himself an injured person that so happens to play tennis and no, it's not a hyperbole nor an exagerration if you take a look at yes, even numbers and stats regarding the nerfs he's had. Novak's "early setbacks" weren't that big of a deal lmao i don't think people realise he was still in prime before 2011 and when he found out about his alergy but ppl make a big fuss ab it to push their agenda. 2011 was js when he hit peak
0:55 total BS. He didn’t have so many injuries. Funny how Nadal rarely got injured during the clay season
There's no doubt that Rafa prioritizes the clay season ahead of schedule. Spanish players have long seen the French Open as their "Wimbledon". Clay courts have always been the healthiest courts to play tennis on. It is most gentle on the knees and legs.
Could he not have planned his recovery from injuries early in the season to reach clay in peak form considering he knew it's where he's more comfortable? The same could be said of Murray who suffered many injuries but always seemed to be available for Wimbledon. Don't you think trainers of every player want to maximize their player's chances to win and plan the seasons accordingly with multiple contingency plans for what would they do if the player got injured at any given point in the season?
Plus, youncan look at Nadal's own comments this year. He wanted to play a full season, for injured at the start and knowing he wanted ro be at the Olympics he planned his recovery to not force before and just be ready when the Olympics came. Everyone does that. Some people say Novak didn't win anything big except thw Olympic gold this year precisely because he planned to be fully healthy and rested in July/August. Every tennis player sets goals for the season and plans for every possible situation to try to have the beat season possible under any circumstances. It's called professional sports.
And this has nothing to do with who is the GOAT or isn't. It's just about how conspiranoic the "how comes Nadal wasn't injured in clay sounds?", which btw is not true because if he had never been injured and had always been in peak for by the clay season, not counting when he lost in Roland Garros in the final, he still would've won more than 14 since, with a career so long, and having been beaten in a Roland Garros final less than 5 times, he should've been closer to 20 titles if he always was healthy and only was beaten in the final when the opponent was better than him.
Tony is contradicting his own Nephew, Nadal who said after the Doha open 2016 Final against Novak, that it was the best Tennis he ever saw any player play in his career. LoL 😂😂
Djokovic treated his body like a temple. He spent a lot of time with flexibility and working hard to become so balanced physically etc,, He wasnt lucky and Nadal unlucky. He is the Goat without question. Stating his nephew could be the best without injuries is ridiculous.
Sinner very recently said the GOAT is Federer. I think I would take the world number one's opinion over some coach who never played tennis in his life, let alone the internet trolls 😂
That I was born with a talent for tennis, that I took care of my diet and my body from a young age, that I exercised..., that I competed in tennis tournaments, that I defeated all my opponents, that I won everything that I can be won... Don't you think that in that case I would be the one who is the best of all time. I'm sure that some Anglo-Saxons and their ilk out there would be convinced that there is something that makes Me not worthy of being the best of all time.
Federer was effortless power, then Nadal came and reversed the power with his lefty forehand. Then Novak came and said...hey bro Elasticity ist the new super power!
😂😂😂
Well said. Djokovic had to hone his game extremely intelligently to maximise what he had. It's so far the ultimate in percentage play, built on ideal court position, bodily flexibilitiy and measured attacking. It generally bores me to sleep, except for the matches when he rose to the challenge of beating Nadal on clay.
Nadal has the most injuries because of the style he plays, which won him many titles and 14 French Opens.
You really can't cherry pick and choose one over the other. If Nadal didn't play in such a physical way he wouldn't have won 14 French Opens. For that he's not the overall GOAT, he's the clay GOAT and that's about it.
That's the thing. He pushed his body so much it's his own style of play. You can't blame injuries then. Otherwise he wouldn't get those slams
Yeah right, injuries. Nadal was injured since 2013 to have not won a set against Novak on hard courts and not have won a single match on any surface other than clay. And btw, he is magically not injured when he wins on clay. Ridiculous
Playing at highest level and winning with less injuries is also a sign of greatness. Which Nadal should not use as excuse
Who played better ? Its Djokovic not Federer, dont forget that. Its funny now they say "statistics prove Djokovic is GOAT". No, his game proved along time ago he is GOAT, grand slams are only last fact that naturally came
Sinner very recently said the GOAT is Federer. I think I would take the world number one's opinion over some coach who never played tennis in his life, let alone the internet trolls 😂
Nobody was calling Djokovic the GOAT until he surpassed Federer and Nadal in grand slams. However, Federer was regarded as the GOAT by many when he wasn't even close to reach Pete's record. It's because Federer acheived a level of play that nobody ever has seen
@@waholoopesorry74 haha lol, not even near as Nole in 2015. Numbers dont lie
Funny Nadal was only once in his whole career injured during clay season. The correct answer would be: "If every tournament was played on clay, then my nephew"
I consider Toni Nadal the best tennis coach of all time. He literally brought Nadal from a little boy to 16 grand slams. Many people could claim Vajda, however Djokovic had many great coaches in his youth such as Jelena genci and niko pilic. Also had Becker as a co-coach. However, I can understand if people think Marian is the greatest.
no way Marian is greater
Djokovic is GOAT and no doubt about it with the current situation. As a RAFA fan his serve from the beginning made him to sit at 2nd or 3rd position. If we had equal no.of Tournaments on Clay and Hard courts may be Grass too then the positions and statistics would change for sure.

Some coach? Toni Nadal? Just shows how much you know of tennis.
@@Ivanntu Toni Nadal played a pivotal role in shaping Rafael Nadal's career, helping him develop into one of the greatest tennis players of all time.
Novak is the 🐐. No debate. Federer and Nadal are naturally talented and geniuses in their own right. For all the praises that Federer or Nadal get for their contribution to tennis, I would argue that Novak leaves behind a better and worthwhile legacy than the other two. Why so? Well, simply put model of tennis that Fedal represent is simply not replicable. There can only be one Federer and one Nadal, that's it. However, Novak's model of tennis is not like that. It's perfectly replicable and leaves behind a fantastic legacy for all those aspiring young players for generations to come. It's a model built on a very low base of natural talent and rest all acquired skills through sheer hardwork, passion and grit. Hence it's replicable as well. If one observes closely, whenever fedal lost, it's because the opponents discovered and exploited their weaknesses (eg. backhand, mental toughness). When it comes to Novak, it has never been the case of an exploited weakness. It was simply a case of Novak being a human afterall and couldn't deliver machine-like results day in day out. There was never a weakness worthy of exploitation. The GOAT Novak is as complete a player as one can get and the sport of tennis has never seen anyone like him before. So, think of the perfectly replicable bulletproof tennis model that Novak leaves behind as his legacy, backed up by the GOAT stats. No one like him. Period.😊
Djokovic also had a period with an injury, that wasn't so short. He got injured in 2017 and didn't play for some time, then had to come back. He also wasn't in top form at the beginning of 2018, partially because of the injuries he suffered. So it's not like Nadal is the only one to have injuries.
As for the numerous-injuries excuse, both Nadal and Federer had played more tournaments & matches than Djokovic to reach the slam no.20/21/22 , hence, Tio Tony is basically saying that if Nadal had played considerably more slams & big tournaments than Djokovic (as Federer had actually played) he would've won more Slams, although probably not WTF & Masters as well (Djokovic has amassed 7 WTF + 40 Masters, Nadal 0 WTF + 36 Masters).
Counting since their first GS Semifinal (when they actually became the slam contenders):
Federer had entered 65 slams for his slam no.20.
Djokovic 61 slam for his slam no.23, 63 slams for the slam no.24.
Nadal 62 slams for his slam no.22.
Federer had amassed 1385 matches by his slam title no.20.
Nadal 1265 matches by his slam no.22.
Djokovic 1262 matches by his slam no.23.
Also, unlike Djokovic who played and lost many big clay matches against Nadal, Nadal had skipped many big HC tournaments in order to stay fresh & fit for the clay season.
Well done novak greatest tennis star❤❤🎉🎉
He is mostly right, I still say the greatest tennis player that ever played was Monica Seles, she was Nadal on steroids, she never quit...nobody to this day got 9 grand slams by 19, no-one... after she was stabbed by that german lunatic Graff won most of her titles, and Monica had her number....God only knows how many slams she would have won

Tony acknowledging Novak as the GOAT citing a caveat of injuries tormenting his nephew sounds very grudging and salty.
The fact is that his nephew was mostly injured outside clay. Nadal has played in all French open except 2016 in which he withdrew from second round and 2023. Novak on the other hand hasn't missed playing a single French open throughout his career, in what is his weakest surface.

List one other player who played a good level, between 2003-2008 (don‘t say Davydenko) and after 2008 you have Tsonga, Wawrinka (peaked late), Cilic, Del Potro, Thiem, Murray, Zverev, Rublev, Sinner, Medvedev, Alcaraz, Dimitrov, Berettini, Musetti, Rune, Ferrer (peaked late), Nishikori, Berdych, Raonic, Bautista Agut, Kyrgios, Tsitsipas, Schwartzman, Shapovalov (and not even an American included)
Nobody but Djokovic ;)
@@agentlemanotchoSinner very recently said the GOAT is Federer. I think I would take the world number one's opinion over some coach who never played tennis in his life, let alone the internet trolls 😂
Hahahaha
The 3 surfaces are very close nowadays. Djokovic cant beat Federer in 90s Wimbledon or extremely fast courts and he cant beat Nadal in 90s clay.
Toni is only saying this after Rafa did
Great words!
Novak lives in their heads rent free😅
Olimpic champion on 37y...NOVAK GOAT.....THE END....
Gracias, T. He always says the obvious. You flew over to Greece fur that? Nice High Level coaching going on behind him in the establishing shot. He just does what he fancies. Few months away. Trust me.
Ok Sherlok, but everybody with a decent IQ knows that Nole is the greatest
The man who paved the way, the most elegant player - Federer
The grittiest & Clay King- Nadal
The greatest - Djokovic
The potential GOAT - Laver (since he wasn’t allowed to participate in grandslams in his prime & tennis wasn’t in olympics)
Massive story !!! avoiding all the failings of the EU as the borders close and the economy dives
Hahahahaha..
Yeah.. Wright.. Dream on old man..
NoVax the Serbianator is simply the goat
Have to say Novak however what he said about Roger I also think is true. At his best I think Roger is the best.
1:01 Yo 🤘🏼👍🏼
Such a compliment to Federer. Transcending numbers. Tony’s mind is still blown.
Salty family 'nadal'
LISTEN WHAT HE SAID ABOUT FEDERER ❤💯💯
One is goat....
Talent and work hard that’s a sales pitch because scientifically if you have talent you work less.
Wow he got it right..... 100%
Not exactly controversial at this point.
You've clearly never heard of Margaret Court then. Most titles of any player man or woman whose ever played to date. Novak hasn't even beaten her record yet, only equalled it so no he's not the GOAT cos he doesn't even play doubles.
If was not for injury nadal would have had more slams than novak but such is life if it was the other way around and novak had the injuries nadal had or anyone for that matter they would not have won so many slams example theim , murray but i also feel like federer would have one more slams if was not for back injury federer would have destroyed this generation
Both Nadal & Federer had played more slams & matches than Djokovic to reach the slam record.
Federer had played 1385 matches by his slam title no.20.
Nadal 1265 matches by his slam no.22.
Djokovic 1262 matches by his slam no.23.
He is Correct in all aspects
Salty player's fan spotted
Peak Federer was the greatest, but his career was peppered with injuries.
Overall Djokovic was the greatest, longevity, consistency, greatness.
On clay, Nadal was the greatest, total dominance.
Federer had a very short peak between 2004-2007 in the weakest era Tennis has ever seen. In 2008, the funny thing according to his own agent is that he discovered Mono hampering him after a string of defeats.
The fact is that once Nadal, Novak and Andy matured, Federer went to the sidelines.
Federer had as many injuries than Novak , and ESPECIALLY Nadal , I didn't know that ?! ...
Maybe you should want to change your comment .
Its Nadal who's career was peppered with injuries not Federer ...
Even No1ak had more injuries than Federer .
Novak is the GOAT , yeah I agree with you on that , but seriously mate ...

Peak Federer lol, most ATP points in one season, Nole 2015
@@initialize21 Somebody cannot bevome GOAT just because Sinner says it. LoL 😂😂 And Sinner also added that it was only his personal opinion. That you need the corroboration of a D0per to herald Frauderer as GOAT is frivolous.
Then why don't you accept the views of Sampras, Agassi, Becker, Mcenroe, Connors, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova and even Nadal who have unequivocally said that Novak is the GOAT because you cannot contest numbers.?? Lol 😂😂😂
Sinner is clearly perturbed that Novak didn't support him when caught d0p1ng. LoL 🤣 🤣
It is Stats along which determine who the GOAT is, the rest are distractions and not in sync with its definition.
For those who say injury is part of the game, I would say you are wrong. Do you think that Rafa doesn't pay attention to recovery, diet, muscle workout? No, of course. But genetics and luck are also important factors relatively to injuries. Rafa has been suffering from his ankle pain since 2006, imagine my friend.
Best ever he saw tennis played was from Federer.
Against the weakest players
@@michael8597lmao you realize the weakest era of all time is 2018 to present, right? Djokovic the weak era king 😂
In Basel maybe, more points ATP points in one season, Nole 2015
@@initialize21 You are just making statements. LoL 😂😂😂
Don't run away; prove it.
His tennis was so boring like ping pong
Marian Vajda is the GOAT.
Federer is the best player. But he has one handad backhand and that’s was a big disadvantage!
Novak is goat because of what he did in 2022 .
Nadal and federer are cowards forever.
Toni is clown .
As we say in Serbia if gramdma had balls , we d call her grandpa .
Only Djokovic fought NwO scam
Champion for humanity
Federer played better on court than the other 2, titles and records aside.. who was in most of fans' hearts over the years? Federer. Just look at those 2 decade long fan's favourite awards. (Thats definitely one record Djoko can't beat - sorry! Had to say it) And to put the cherry on top... He was #9 on Forbes' top 10 most paid athletes in 2023!!! On a year where he only played 1 tournament - his own! Guys say what you about Djokovic and Nadal. Djoko might be a horned mammal that makes dairy, Roger is the crowned king👑
Now Dr. Federer by the way.
Just look at Toni's face when he says who played better 🤯
Toni is very objective. He is a very good coach and a gentleman. I have a good respect for him.
It's really sad that Djokovic fans seek acknowledgement even after he's won the most gs titles. They just wait for videos like this and latch on to the comments section 😂
Says someone who is not even a Djokovic fan and yet watches the same video and takes the time to comment on it. We get it how painful your life is now that you too know who is the GOAT. Ok, now waiting for your reply which will further prove your double standards 😂
Djokovic fans watching Djokovic videos is completely rational. You on the other hand, what are you doing here? The complete contradiction. 😂🤡
Its really sad that Fedal fans feel the need to click on these videos when they know they gonna get disappointed with the results and have to vent out their frustrations in comments. Thankfully they can watch pre-2011 tennis GS where Fedal won some GS over Djokovic so they stop crying
@@DjokerFanThe only disapointed people here are Djokovic fans who try to create a controversy out of nothing.
I agree with Toni's take on this. Djokovic is only the best if you look at titles. However it is quite clear that Federer acheived a peak level of play that was never surpassed by anyone. Peak Federer beats anyone in history, and that's why he is by definition the greatest ever.
Tennis has given rafa alot everybody has there opnion jockavic is the goat but my goat will always be the man who made me start yo watch tennis rafael nadal a legend
Great statement
Joko goat but Federer the best player
Nuff said
Nadal win 22 gs and Novak deportation ao..is not fer
Stoped toni viva djokovic
