Joseph Li Federer and nadal is one sided rivalry?? You realise that federer is considered the greatest tennis player of all time right?? And that he is leading h2h with rafa on both grass and hard court.
Imagine winning against the most legendary tennis player of all time at age 17. Sharapova probably wanted that feeling to last forever but Serena is just too good.
It's probably a lot like scoring four touchdowns in a single football game in highschool, so she's already doing better I'm life than Al Bundy. That's a plus!
It says that beautiful women sell more merchandise. Who knew? If Naomi Campbell was a tennis player she would sell even more Nike than Sharapova. It's not about race, it's about capitalism
Ya but it’s those 2 final wins in 2004 that’s all Sharapova needed, plus some nice legs to get under Serena’s skin for good. I think it’s just Serena’s way of saying that was the one opponent who could’ve hung with her for a while but didn’t. To Serena’s credit she never got complacent about being the best in her sport, she needed a rival so she picked the closest to her and ran with it. Maria probably owes her one for that lol.
Stop calling this a rivalry. With a record of 2-18 against Serena, Maria can't hold Serena's bra strap. Did you guys see the *6-1, 6-0 dismantling* during the 2019 US Open?

The amount of blatant racism in the treatment and perception of SW versus Sharipova would be funny if it wasn't utterly disgusting To specify not talking about this video but a lot of other media coverage and online communities
I agree with the other comments Serena is better but she is not very attractive to most people not because she is black but because she is built like a man it’s. Maria makes more money in endorsements because she is marketable
Racism or not, ( great is great ) no matter, the race creed or color & that is what is so so good about sports. In the sports world, talent is flat out talent and talent can’t be taken away from a person. ✌🏾
The phrase “you have to be twice as good to get half of what they got” really comes to mind. Sharapova should never even be compared to Serena. But because she’s blond and average looking her mediocrity earns her more money.
Sharapova is nowhere near to Serena in career achievements, but she isn't mediocre either... She won 5 grand slam titles, a career grand slam, an Olympic medal, she was world no.1 in 5 separate occasions and the best player in the 2010-2020 decade after Serena Sharapova is much more than mediocre
The only two players since Steffi Graf to achieve a Career Grand Slam are Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams. So it's entirely unfair to call her mediocre.

@u wot m8 your disgrace to your family. You don't get suspended for two years over blood thinners idiot. Another sheep believing whatever fits your narrative.
@@stivib5937 talent should sell more than beauty. Are you here to watch tennis or get off? So the best female player in history doesn't get the same opportunities because she's not pretty enough? No, i say its because people who enjoy tennis are much more comfortable seeing sharapova kick ass than serena.
I'm from L.A., watching the Williams sisters grow up under their father's tutorship had a lot of people skeptical. Both sisters are phenominal, great reps for tennis and L.A. Sharapova isn't as focused, as talented or physically built for the demands of top level tennis. She has deserved her wins and losses. Serena doms everyone, including her own sister!
Sharapova's comments about "tall, really tall" really show so much when she's always been significantly taller. It's got to suck to be really, really good at a sport and to have your career overlap with the *all-time greatest*, but like... you don't have to get quite so personal about it.
I mean, her explanation that it was from the perspective of a 17 year old kid looking up to an idol of the sport makes sense to me here. She may have been physically taller but didn't feel like she was. I think this is an example of people finding an insult where there isn't one. Not really the go-to example for me in terms of questionable Sharpova statements.
@@telquel7843 no. White people see Black people as much larger than they actually are because they are fundamentally afraid of us. Welcome to our world.

@@MsJubjubbird You're right ...Maria had the package to beat Serena physically, talently, BUT SHE LACKED THE MENTALITY, AND HEART TO WIN. As time went by she felt in her heart she could not win against Serena AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.

It is like watching those tyrannies who race those girls in high school track and field. As soon as the gun went off, they were twenty meters ahead !!! I'm hispanic and if I had to shoos, I would go with Sharapova. She's not as great as Serina, but she is one of the great women in tennis, plus she's beautiful and rich 😍
@@ricoletocubano I usually don't bother explaining my opinions to people that speak English as a second language.....and I will continue that tradition. 😂😂😂😂
It's clearly a colour thing..... If Sharapova was Sloane Stevens, would Sloane have made more money than serena? From the days of Anna Kournikova, the tennis World was dreaming of Sharapova, white, blonde, gorgeous and a great tennis player who would take tennis to higher heights, but they didn't realise Serena was already doing that along with Venus. These two sisters changed the game and have imposed tennis into the lives of so many people around the world, who may not have been interested in tennis, hadn't it been for Venus and Serena. For years I watched Lori McNeal lose to steffi, Zina Garrison be defeated time and time again, I prayed to God for a fantastic black female tennis player as in the men's game Sampras was already my hero, God answered my prayer with Venus and doubled up my prayers with Serena. Those three players have paved the way and raised bar countless times. I don't think this is a rivalry at all Serena lost twice to Sharapova and I think those two loses, made her mentally stronger, and more determined to succeed even more than she had. Let Sharapova have the most money, serena is more decorated with her 23 slams and will go down in history as the greatest female player of all time. I think the media and the tennis World have turned this into a rivalry or a fight, when it should really just be about tennis.

@@danielvilla9290 LETS SEE WOULD I RATHER BE CUTE OR WOULD I RATHER BE THE BEST TENNIS PLAYER ON THE PLANET ???????????? I WILL GO WITH THE BEST TENNIS PLAYER ON THE PLANET.
People forget how big of a deal it was in the tennis world when a scrawny 17 y/o Sharapova beat Serena in the 04 Wimbledon. It was one of the biggest upsets in tennis history. It's really the main reason the "rivalry" exits
Maria got hella sympathy for the drug issue that she claimed that she had NO CLUE of what effect it had on her body....after taking the drug in question for over a decade. The tennis community knows good & damn well that they wouldn't have had the same energy if this was Serena. Stripping every title she has ruining her reputation & dragging her through the damn mud would have been the end result of it had that been Serena.
Seth also missed Sharapova's crying during the Olympic final, as well as the Charleston 2008 match in which Michael Joyce (then Sharapova's coach) almost called Serena's a "B---h" . Seth also got wrong that "everybody assumed Serena was talking about Sharapova", when Roderick recklessly insinuated that Serena was talking about Sharapova in that phone call with Venus, as well as talking about Dimitrov. Seth also cut off the fact that Serena mentioned that Roderick brought Sharapova in the story, not Serena herself.
I'm sorry if your comment is a year old at this point, but THANK YOU! I never bought that Venus & Serena would give a damn about Maria in that sense. They have always been friendly with Woz and Azarenka, though, one of whom absolutely fits the description of their conversation. It all worked out, though, Serena was a bridesmaid for Woz and Grigor is hanging out with the Williams family & friends more and more these days, lol! Just another L for that doping fiend. ;)
So who is she talking about, for you? Which tennis players? Because if it's not Maria, I don't see anyone else fitting the "cool parties" (as Serena always happily brag about her "friendships" in WTA Tour) and the "so happy" Sorry that her affair with Mouratouglou got exposed though, at least she landed on a better deal afterwards.
@@SchmittyHawks32 And lol, why would Sharapova cared with being friends to Wozniacki and Azarenka? They don't like her yet it doesn't hurt Maria's career to not befriend them
Yeah! And, the you forgot about the elephant in the room size beef between the ladies. There was utube footage of sharapova and her coach. And, her coach referred to Serena as "the N word" in a partial pronunciation and Sharapova giggling about it as if they were accustomed to talking about Serena in this manner. The Maria-Serena match following the remarks was a huge win for Serena. The other beef is, Sharapova has alluded to Williams being on PED's. And, ironically, Maria has been caught and penalized for using PED's. And, Serena is tested 4 to 5 times more than any other tennis player. Yet, has never failed a PED test. Maria tried to create controversy between them to use Serena to sell Maria's book.
Plenty of beef in sports - you guys have lot to cover. You guys could do one with Chipper Jones and Mets. Serena and Sharapova rivalry is an old news, but great to hear about this to remind how Sharapova got her ass handed to her by Serena. Great vid and thank you for a caption
SB Nation, I am grateful for your uncut objectivity, direct, no nonsense reporting of information, and commendable commitment to ethics applicable to your work. Insofar as this Williams - Sharapova non-rivalry fodder the sports media and tennis pundits feed upon when it suits their purpose, it could also be viewed as the tale of disparate cultures in microcosm. One side will never accept Serena for the dominant, all-time great athlete she has become or recognize her associated accolades, while the other will doggedly embrace Sharapova despite her PED controversy, which coincides logically with her formerly unparalleled earning power, despite possessing the distinctly lesser quantity of winning hardware when compared to Serena.
She can't be the most dominant cuz she's never being amongst the top 100 best tennis players. She even admitted that the reason she dominates is cuz she plays against women.
I think you're missing the point, she's not the most dominant tennis player (she wouldn't be able to beat a top 800 men's player), but definitely the most dominate woman player in tennis. You can't really compare her to other males, so I would probably agree with Craig, even though I'm not a huge fan of her
@samuel moore Yes, I know you can't compare men and women in tennis, so that's why I explicitly said most dominate women player. Her male counterpart would be RF. Basketball may be a team sport, but you can tell who's a good player or not.
Serena has been the better athlete yet, Sharapova had been earning more ad sponsorships until she was outed for taking drugs. That is just disgusting considering how much Serena has offered for the sport. Serena has not only been one of the greatest athletes of all time, but she has redefined for a generation of girls what it means to be a female athlete and especially what Black girls can do. I have mad respect for that woman.
The media put a lot of pressure on sharapova and serena BOTH!! They created this whole rivalry By putting one white and black women against each other like they always do They knew exactly what they were doing They profited from that situation women's comparisons always bring money, a lot of money and attention And this is common to every industry I'm not saying that comparisons doesn't exists in mens world But the sharapova serena case was massively supported by the media
Tennis world will never just appreciate how great Serena is they'll always fallback on the she's abusive or because she looks manly because of her physique whether people think she used drugs or not, she's kept her body in shape even after having a baby by (story for another day) but people must have forgot she's a athlete.
I know, people act like it's a Beauty pagent, it's like they don't even care about the game at all. When guys play, no one is comparing their body with guy on the other side of the net.
Racism is powerful. All they see is hate. They hate us because we created civilization that the world benefits from and they know it. We are the gods. Why do you think they nevervwantrd us to read? They know of our superiority. We must remember it. Serena, Obama . tiger. Whitney all examples of how we are the best at whatever we persue. # melanin itswhatsforfinner
I do agree with you that Serena isn't really that revered, but it honestly makes a little sense. Her physique is quite larger than even some male players, so it definitely looks a little suspicious whether she uses drugs. And, she has had some "tantrums", like the US Open with Osaka. Furthermore, I actually play tennis, and almost every tennis player that I know does actually think Serena is the best female player of her era. It's really only non - tennis players that don't. Basically @EDDIE GREEN it's not racism, its suspicion. Saying the being black, is superior, is racist itself.
@@westonwilliams6116 Thanks for whitesplaining. Suspicision with no factual evidence of any wrongdoing, while Maria has been banned. And thats a fact. And if you're gonna talk about Serena's physique being "quite large than some male players" that's trash. Tsonga, Safin, Nadal, Kerber, Stosur, Lisicki are all muscular. Should all tennis players be rail thin and have weak knees? Serena has played in 71 grand slams, and to focus on the few times that she has been upset says more about you than her. She literally clapped for Kerber after she lost to her twice in 2016 in finals... yet, there is focus on the negative. Competition is about competing, not compliance and being nice. If you play competitive sports and are happy about losing, you should find another hobby... like whitesplaining ignorance, as you've done so well here.
Nice work putting this together, sounded like very accurate information. Maybe the title Unstoppable is really to deceive everyone and it is actually describing Serena and Maria doesn't have the courage to admit it. Maria probably has a crush on her...anything is possible.
I've had a RUclips account for a decade +. I've probably commented on videos a handful of times during that period. Tops. I had to tip my hat to this podcast though. It's really well done, even handed and consistently interesting. Definitely one of my favorites.
Sharapova is very overrated and a cheat! Sharapova comes across as ridiculously narcisstic and rude. She needs to take lessons in manners and class from Simone Halep and Nadal!!!
The head to head score is 19 to 2 in favor of Great Serena. Serena won 23 grand slam titles. Maria has 5. I believe most people would say that Serena is the greatest player of all time.
@@ratbian They only have a 4 year difference though. You would have expected Maria to win against her in the later years, where she's reaching her prime while Serena'd battling with injuries. Yet despite all that, Serena owned her completely after her 2 loses.

Doksh Or alternatively in the world of sport you can earn more even if you are not as good because of one’s other attributes.
New Jersey what...😂😂 how tf did this become a black vs white thing. Swear people like you always saying some dumbshit
The amount of blatant racism in the treatment and perception of SW versus Sharipova would be funny if it wasn't utterly disgusting
To specify not talking about this video but a lot of other media coverage and online communities
Dan Westly it’s not racism, it’s looks. Sharipova isn’t simply more attractive
I agree with the other comments Serena is better but she is not very attractive to most people not because she is black but because she is built like a man it’s. Maria makes more money in endorsements because she is marketable
Racism or not, ( great is great ) no matter, the race creed or color & that is what is so so good about sports. In the sports world, talent is flat out talent and talent can’t be taken away from a person. ✌🏾
The phrase “you have to be twice as good to get half of what they got” really comes to mind. Sharapova should never even be compared to Serena. But because she’s blond and average looking her mediocrity earns her more money.
Sharapova is nowhere near to Serena in career achievements, but she isn't mediocre either... She won 5 grand slam titles, a career grand slam, an Olympic medal, she was world no.1 in 5 separate occasions and the best player in the 2010-2020 decade after Serena
Sharapova is much more than mediocre
The only two players since Steffi Graf to achieve a Career Grand Slam are Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams. So it's entirely unfair to call her mediocre.
Americans really hate it when immigrants succeed don't they?
Sharapova is flat out obsessed with Serena. Period.

Because beauty sells she is more beautiful, djokovic has almost the same winnings as federer even though federer has won twice more
@@stivib5937 talent should sell more than beauty. Are you here to watch tennis or get off? So the best female player in history doesn't get the same opportunities because she's not pretty enough? No, i say its because people who enjoy tennis are much more comfortable seeing sharapova kick ass than serena.
I'm from L.A., watching the Williams sisters grow up under their father's tutorship had a lot of people skeptical. Both sisters are phenominal, great reps for tennis and L.A. Sharapova isn't as focused, as talented or physically built for the demands of top level tennis. She has deserved her wins and losses. Serena doms everyone, including her own sister!
THANK YOU for referring to this as a “beef” and not a “rivalry”!!!!
Sharapova's comments about "tall, really tall" really show so much when she's always been significantly taller.
It's got to suck to be really, really good at a sport and to have your career overlap with the *all-time greatest*, but like... you don't have to get quite so personal about it.
I mean, her explanation that it was from the perspective of a 17 year old kid looking up to an idol of the sport makes sense to me here. She may have been physically taller but didn't feel like she was. I think this is an example of people finding an insult where there isn't one.
Not really the go-to example for me in terms of questionable Sharpova statements.

It's clearly a colour thing..... If Sharapova was Sloane Stevens, would Sloane have made more money than serena? From the days of Anna Kournikova, the tennis World was dreaming of Sharapova, white, blonde, gorgeous and a great tennis player who would take tennis to higher heights, but they didn't realise Serena was already doing that along with Venus. These two sisters changed the game and have imposed tennis into the lives of so many people around the world, who may not have been interested in tennis, hadn't it been for Venus and Serena.
For years I watched Lori McNeal lose to steffi, Zina Garrison be defeated time and time again, I prayed to God for a fantastic black female tennis player as in the men's game Sampras was already my hero, God answered my prayer with Venus and doubled up my prayers with Serena. Those three players have paved the way and raised bar countless times. I don't think this is a rivalry at all Serena lost twice to Sharapova and I think those two loses, made her mentally stronger, and more determined to succeed even more than she had. Let Sharapova have the most money, serena is more decorated with her 23 slams and will go down in history as the greatest female player of all time. I think the media and the tennis World have turned this into a rivalry or a fight, when it should really just be about tennis.

i dont remember tv looking that bad in the early 2000s
Maria got hella sympathy for the drug issue that she claimed that she had NO CLUE of what effect it had on her body....after taking the drug in question for over a decade. The tennis community knows good & damn well that they wouldn't have had the same energy if this was Serena. Stripping every title she has ruining her reputation & dragging her through the damn mud would have been the end result of it had that been Serena.
I'm just impressed you pronounced Brisbane correctly
Serena is a living legend. Sharapova is a tennis player. I like both but they're not even comparable.
Very Well said!!
Seth also missed Sharapova's crying during the Olympic final, as well as the Charleston 2008 match in which Michael Joyce (then Sharapova's coach) almost called Serena's a "B---h" .
Seth also got wrong that "everybody assumed Serena was talking about Sharapova", when Roderick recklessly insinuated that Serena was talking about Sharapova in that phone call with Venus, as well as talking about Dimitrov.
Seth also cut off the fact that Serena mentioned that Roderick brought Sharapova in the story, not Serena herself.
I'm sorry if your comment is a year old at this point, but THANK YOU! I never bought that Venus & Serena would give a damn about Maria in that sense. They have always been friendly with Woz and Azarenka, though, one of whom absolutely fits the description of their conversation. It all worked out, though, Serena was a bridesmaid for Woz and Grigor is hanging out with the Williams family & friends more and more these days, lol! Just another L for that doping fiend. ;)
So who is she talking about, for you? Which tennis players? Because if it's not Maria, I don't see anyone else fitting the "cool parties" (as Serena always happily brag about her "friendships" in WTA Tour) and the "so happy"
Sorry that her affair with Mouratouglou got exposed though, at least she landed on a better deal afterwards.

Yeah! And, the you forgot about the elephant in the room size beef between the ladies. There was utube footage of sharapova and her coach. And, her coach referred to Serena as "the N word" in a partial pronunciation and Sharapova giggling about it as if they were accustomed to talking about Serena in this manner. The Maria-Serena match following the remarks was a huge win for Serena. The other beef is, Sharapova has alluded to Williams being on PED's. And, ironically, Maria has been caught and penalized for using PED's. And, Serena is tested 4 to 5 times more than any other tennis player. Yet, has never failed a PED test. Maria tried to create controversy between them to use Serena to sell Maria's book.
Should be friends?! Girl, you crazy. Two athletes at the top of their sport, fighting for the same titles, endorsements, and ranking can’t be friends.

SB Nation, I am grateful for your uncut objectivity, direct, no nonsense reporting of information, and commendable commitment to ethics applicable to your work. Insofar as this Williams - Sharapova non-rivalry fodder the sports media and tennis pundits feed upon when it suits their purpose, it could also be viewed as the tale of disparate cultures in microcosm. One side will never accept Serena for the dominant, all-time great athlete she has become or recognize her associated accolades, while the other will doggedly embrace Sharapova despite her PED controversy, which coincides logically with her formerly unparalleled earning power, despite possessing the distinctly lesser quantity of winning hardware when compared to Serena.
Imagine if Serena was constantly in form and healthy, she could have 30+ slams

You could make an argument that Serena is the most dominant athlete we have ever seen. Maybe Tiger? MJ? She has to be top 3.
She can't be the most dominant cuz she's never being amongst the top 100 best tennis players. She even admitted that the reason she dominates is cuz she plays against women.
I think you're missing the point, she's not the most dominant tennis player (she wouldn't be able to beat a top 800 men's player), but definitely the most dominate woman player in tennis. You can't really compare her to other males, so I would probably agree with Craig, even though I'm not a huge fan of her
Facts. She is more dominant than MJ or Tiger and has been dominant for longer than either of them.
@samuel moore Yes, I know you can't compare men and women in tennis, so that's why I explicitly said most dominate women player. Her male counterpart would be RF. Basketball may be a team sport, but you can tell who's a good player or not.
Roger Federer surely. There was a period where he won 3 majors a year like it was nothing.
Michael Phelps too.
This is a dumb video because their beef is media generated. The 2 are not even in the same conversation in any stretch of the imagination.
Serena has been the better athlete yet, Sharapova had been earning more ad sponsorships until she was outed for taking drugs. That is just disgusting considering how much Serena has offered for the sport. Serena has not only been one of the greatest athletes of all time, but she has redefined for a generation of girls what it means to be a female athlete and especially what Black girls can do. I have mad respect for that woman.

I do agree with you that Serena isn't really that revered, but it honestly makes a little sense. Her physique is quite larger than even some male players, so it definitely looks a little suspicious whether she uses drugs. And, she has had some "tantrums", like the US Open with Osaka. Furthermore, I actually play tennis, and almost every tennis player that I know does actually think Serena is the best female player of her era. It's really only non - tennis players that don't. Basically @EDDIE GREEN it's not racism, its suspicion. Saying the being black, is superior, is racist itself.
@@westonwilliams6116 Thanks for whitesplaining. Suspicision with no factual evidence of any wrongdoing, while Maria has been banned. And thats a fact. And if you're gonna talk about Serena's physique being "quite large than some male players" that's trash. Tsonga, Safin, Nadal, Kerber, Stosur, Lisicki are all muscular. Should all tennis players be rail thin and have weak knees? Serena has played in 71 grand slams, and to focus on the few times that she has been upset says more about you than her. She literally clapped for Kerber after she lost to her twice in 2016 in finals... yet, there is focus on the negative. Competition is about competing, not compliance and being nice. If you play competitive sports and are happy about losing, you should find another hobby... like whitesplaining ignorance, as you've done so well here.
Nice work putting this together, sounded like very accurate information. Maybe the title Unstoppable is really to deceive everyone and it is actually describing Serena and Maria doesn't have the courage to admit it. Maria probably has a crush on her...anything is possible.

The head to head score is 19 to 2 in favor of Great Serena. Serena won 23 grand slam titles. Maria has 5. I believe most people would say that Serena is the greatest player of all time.
Serena has also been playing for longer than Sharapova, so she was more experienced and physically developed.
@@ratbian They only have a 4 year difference though. You would have expected Maria to win against her in the later years, where she's reaching her prime while Serena'd battling with injuries. Yet despite all that, Serena owned her completely after her 2 loses.
