I budged on the idea of matching up guys from different sports, but I don't think it's very fair to match up a team sport guy against a solo sport guy. Federer has racked up more accolades than anyone this side of Tiger Woods.
With that said, Kobe gets my vote. You could make a very good argument that the only reason why Federer is about to break Pete Sampras' major championships record is because he's played in a pretty weak era for men's tennis. Nadal is his only true adversary, and he's only come on as a legit contender in the past couple years. Kobe is playing in the most competitive era of NBA basketball since the early 1990's and gets more than his fair share of votes for best player of the era.
