Hard work defeats talent in the long run. Never forget it.

>(You)

I never really believed this. In middle school my chad bully who is naturally good at everything always destroyed me in dodgeball. I worked my ass off with my throwing form, dodging, and game sense for hours after school but he still continued to destroy me.

>>76404337
should have worked harder

>>76404255
Wait wut? Messi destroys Ronaldo.

>>76404436
Ronaldo has won 4 of the last 5 Ballon D'or

This is bait right? Lebron is 6'8 and has the body of a demigod

Put Isaiah Thomas or something in there instead

>>76404255
LeBron isn't hard work. His is just genetics. He's even mocked reporters for bringing up "practice"

>>76404481
>>76404477
Practice =/= Gym

>>76404255
Neither giving blowjobs to the refs nor using steroids are hard work, though

so the guys on the left are better?

>>76404688
Nadal 23-11 against Federer
Ronaldo overcame a 4-1 deficit against Messi
LeBron is 13-3 against Durant

>>76404752
Durant needed a superteam to win against Lebron
Messi needed XaviIniesta to win against Ronaldo

>>76404788
messi had a field day last time against real

>>76404823
who won the league?

>>76404743
that's literally what the OP is saying though

>>76404255

Which one stronger: hard work or the power of friendship?

A popularity contest. Michael Owen won one too, which makes that trophy meaningless

>>76404255
but both Messi and Fedex are the goats in their sports

>>76405018
Owen was great before the injuries, take that back

>>76405035
>has the true GOAT, who earned it by pure hard work, effort and character and gave Portugal its only title in history

Now remove clay matches sweetie

they all have talent retard

Ronaldo did jack shit in the Euro Final, plus Missi would easily have won at least one of the three finals he was in if it wasn't for >higuain.

You are just being a retard now

Nadal trains 8 hours every day, Federer doesn't

>>76405217
how hard did Lebron work to become nearly 6 foot 9?

>>76405228
Durant is taller than Lebron, dumbass

and yet his body looks like shit because he doesn't hit the gym and train hard

if hard work defeats talent why are you posting from Argentina?

>>76405253
It's harder to look good the taller you are because you need more mass distributed across your body

>>76405217

Messi and Federer are the GOATs who don't have to train 8 hours a day and can fuck their wives and eat pizza.

Nadal and Ronaldo are both JUST players who have had 0 good girlfriends, unmarried, no legitimate kids, and the list goes on

>>76405281
it's just 3 cm, no excuses

>6'9
>hard work

tell me of this hard work that will allow me to grow 1 foot taller please

>>76405299
see >>76405253

>>76405253
The point is Lebron has more natural gifts than everyone in history except one person, so that means KD is just coasting on his 2 more inches of talent. Use your logic and Isaiah Thomas is the hardest worker in all of sports ever and it's not even slightly close.

Lebron James a man who has never had a major injury EVER while playing 40 minutes plus a game that's totally all talent or PEDs


>Daily reminder Eli Manning is responsible for two Patriot super bowl losses.

>>76405253
KD, would probably play worse if he packed on muscle

>having toned abs means that you are a harder worker than those who don't the pic

>>76404972
2016 shouldnt have counted.

>>76405340
no where does that imply height is the only thing that matters, but it matters a lot and is a natural gift that he didn't work for.

I unironically agree with this Argie

>>76404550
Going to the gym is somehow what translates into hardworking? Are you seriously retarded? When you're a professional sports player practicing and training in your sport is how you get better. Your fucking biceps are useless if you can't fucking shoot a basket to save your life.

>>76405217
Federer works just as hard as Nadal. He has a different build, which is fine for his playstyle. The hardest working player is Murray and he simply doesnt have the talent the other 3 have

So many Messhit autists god damn

>>76405418
Nadal is a training freak, Murray is nowhere near close to that

wew I guess we just showed up in the final
Ronaldo 3 goals 3 assists, could've scored at least 3 more if he wasn't a natural choker though sometimes

>people are still pretending Ronaldo is a one man team even though he has the de facto best team in the world while bashing Messi for having 2 great midfielders (even though some of them will still argue they are inferior to Modric/Kroos)
You are a contrarian. We get it.
No need to shove it down our throat every day

In which parallel universe is Nadal better than Federer?

>>76404255
Ronaldo is actually a huge inspiration to me. He wasn't even the biggest talent coming out of the Sporting academy that year, but through sheer hard work and dedication to be the absolute fucking best, he achieved his goals time and times over. Absolute legend.

you mean roids

>>76404337
The argument is really only implying within the confines of elite level players. Of course a 5-5 120 uncoordinated spic is going to be able to work his ass off and play in the NBA.

>>76406795
Messi is a system baby. Xavi and Iniesta and the entire team was built around him solely. That's why Zlatan got benched for taking too much space, that's why David Villa flopped immensely and that's why Messi is struggling now that the team isn't built around serving him and him only.

>>76404255

Hard works always beats talent unless talent works hard.

>>76407229
fat hans detected

>>76405035
so is Durant

>>76407356
Are you somehow implying Real isnt built around getting set up for Ronaldo taps-in?
If Messi is a system babby then what is Ronaldo, that can find and exploit space but dont create it himself?

You mean the NT that played better when he was on the bench because it didn't revolve around getting the ball to him even though he was playing poorly? As opposed to Argentine that can't get past the worst team in South America without Messi.
>Real
Real previous post.

>>76405340
There's more people in the NBA over 7 feet than under 6 feet. Most men even in developed countries are under 6 foot, how often you see 7 footers in daily life? Of course it matters.

>>76407676
Did you just start watching football this decade? Ronaldo did exactly just that at United. Messi fanboys were always complaining about how he needleslly dribbled without an endproduct and dived as opposed to scoring tap-ins and penalties now.

Really makes you think

What about Karl Malone?
https://youtu.be/hHDP-SKqamw

Is everyone here secretly Mexican or Arab? Do you really think Ronaldo is a better player than Messi? Yes, he has won more important trophies in the last few years, but that's because he is in a ridiculously stacked team. Real Madrid's B-team's midfield is unironically better than Barcelona's.

but federer and messi are goat at their sport

>>76409548
people on this website love to "pretend" to be retarded and drop contrarian opinions

go to /tv/ or /mu/ and you'll see it's the same

>>76404255
1. Federer is the best tennis player to ever step on the court
2. Messi is the best soccer player to ever step on the pitch.
3. >implying niggers work let alone do hard work

Such an American thought process

Should've worked harder faggit

Nothing to do with any other factors like talent, genetics, upbringing, who you know, luck, PEDs, cheating. It seems gloriously hopeful but really naive to think that way.

Misleading statistics. Federer specialized on grass. Nadal specialized on clay. Federer usually reached the final on each surface. Nadal was eliminated more often on non-clay surfaces before the final. So Federer didn't get the opportunity to equalize on his surfaces.

>>76409791
>4 kids to 0
2 sets of twins no less. The man's got some strong swimmers and got lucky with his choice in a wife.

>>76409815
Federer didn't really specialize on grass (there are not enough grass tournaments for that anymore), he was as dominant on hard court during his peak and good on clay. Indoor hard was his favorite as a kid.
