I mean, I doubt you can say that Muhammad Ali didn't at any time talk disrespectfully to his fighter, before or after the fight. There are plenty of videos out there that shows clearly that ZJK does respect his opponents. In his reportage, he openly admitted that Ma Long is his most difficult...

Yes, thats what I was saying, me too. After hearing what the Chinese player says in Chinese, I then hear what the Chinese to english translator says, and half the time, its either completely wrong or only half right, or missing the overall tone of what the Chinese player is trying to get across.

What? the Chinese players always shake hands after a match. Even if they aren't happy about it, they still will shake hands for the most part, which is better than some European players who will go as far to purposely refuse to shake hands. The fact is, Chinese players have a much closer tie to...

As for the complaint about the interviews, as someone who grew up in the US, but speaks Chinese, those interviews are some of the most poorly translated things I have ever heard. A lot is lost in translation. The people the Chinese national team hire for those translations are awful, I without...

I don't know if I can agree with this comment. If anything, overall the Chinese players are some of the most calm and respectful players out there. They don't do a lot of ridiculous and rash stuff that many other table tennis players do. I feel like there is a lot of built up resentment against...

Man, I am impressed that Joo actually beat Boll, usually he never has a chance against Boll. Good to see Wang Hao got his revenge when it mattered.

haha that is pretty funny. I think just from the Chinese National team training videos, the reportages, you can pretty much tell that Xu Xin is the one who is the biggest jokester. He is always taking things not as seriously as the coaches probably want him to.... haha Which in a way probably is...

Man, I must say, Octarchov is starting to prove me wrong. In the other thread about whether he will truly become the top european player, I didn't have much faith in Ovtarchov's chances but he does seem like he is making a good deal of improvement. Beating Wang Hao earlier, and now taking Zhang...

I wonder if thats just a thing with Chinese power players? or maybe just a coincidence. Wang Liqin and Zhang Jike, the two main power players for China both have a noticeable lag period until they really start playing their best. WLQ especially. Or it could just be random coincidence.

From the pictures I have seen of him, his face looks a little sickly and pale.... not his normal self, but still he pulled out a great win against Ovtarchov today.

Well if nothing else, this will be a good test run for China. To see if the current two that would be competing in the Olympics are good enough, or if not whether Ma Long should be placed in. Its been a while since only two Chinese players were present in a world cup. I mean even though its the...

I don't know, he seems like one of those solid players, but there isn't any part of his game that really stands out as a big strength in his game. Its kind of how I feel about Hao Shuai, and Yan An. A lot of people are all impressed with Yan An, him being quite young, and yet beating Wang Hao...

well I think you just have to wait a while, and visit the link at a different time. It's like ebay, so depending on the time, and who puts up the item, it will be different.

I would love to get Ma Long and Wang Liqin's autograph, or even better have my picture taken with them. That would be a really neat memorabilia to have hanging in my room or something

wait really? most of the time that I see his videos, if they show a little bit at the end, he always walks towards the stands, where tons of kids line up for autographs. Especially in the latest tournaments in Europe. If you watch some of the videos of him after he wins the match, you always see...

Yeah I mean I think if Ma Long does keep up his unbelievable form, the Chinese might make an exception and not follow their rule of whoever is ranked top 2 by the June of the year before. I mean as far as I know, that's an internal rule established by China and not by the ITTF. Because I can't...

ugh, i hate watching videos of WLQ losing.... hahaha its OK in another year, he will start dominating.

Yeah, Ryu's record against Ma Lin was like 0-6, against Wang Hao it was 0-something, and then against Wang Liqin it was like 1-6 or something, so it was really a case of being clutch in the special occasion that allowed Ryu to win. Also I feel like a lot of the Chinese, because so much is...

Great video. I am actually not that impressed with Song Hongyuan as a player however. I think of the juniors that played in that world junior championship for the Chinese team Lin Gaoyuan and Zhou Yu showed the most promise and potential. Song Hongyuan just happened to be the oldest and...
