Diego Maradona was discredited by a historical star: “he was a chubby”

The discussion between whether Diego Maradona was better than Pele or Pele that Maradona will be eternal and will depend a lot on the subjectivity of each person. Although Pele asked that they stop comparing him with Diego Maradona and that they begin to enjoy what they both did, one of the best archers in Argentine history attacked Diego Maradona and generated a great controversy.

One of Diego Maradona's most memorable matches was when he faced Boca Juniors for the first time, since in the Boca Juniors goal he was tackling “Loco” Gatti, one of the best goalkeepers in the history of Argentina. That day Gatti said that Maradona was not going to score a goal and that he "was a chubby boy" who played football. After that game Gatti had to apologize because Diego Maradona scored 4 goals and was the big star of the game.
