RE:fed the great!

Becker charismatic?? Because he used to fall down heavily while volleying? Only a couch potato could call that athleticism or charismatic. Becker was a POOR athlete, by any means of reckoning, esp compared to a Federer or Sampras-even his contemporary, Stefan Edberg had better athletic skills and stamina(he won 3 5 setters to reach USO92 final and won that in a 4 setter).Becker would have fallen flat.
As for Federer and Nadal, it is pointless even comparing their fitness with Becker. They would squash him like an insect with their speed and firepower.
