Goosebumps after watching this video. A complete player - he may have struggled initially to become the number one but after that there’s no looking back. Though he is struggling currently bcos of his injuries he will always be fans favorite.

Im German but i have to say that Ma Long is the best in the World altough Dima is No.1 now. His technique and explossiveness is unique and just incredible!!!

[samlinder]

You know that a guy is number one when he fools a Chinese teammate with his serves three times in one match.

simply the G.O.A.T! Everyone even trying to dispute that, has no clue of the sport! MaLong is the player with the longest Nr1, the most tournaments won, the most big tournaments won, most world titles won (together with Wang Liqin), best record in h2h against nearly any other player etc. He holds so many records, you cant even list them all up! Besides that he is a amazing person. Very humble, funny and open minded. He is all a champion should be a real rolemodel for the sport of tabletennis! Congratulations MaLong!

I loved JO Waldner, loved Wang Liqin, loved Ma Lin, loved Wang Hao, love Zhang Jike, love Xu Xin, love Fan Zhendong and love Timo Boll, but NONE of them are as complete as Ma Long. His China Open record speaks for itself and given that Ma Long's record against Zhang Jike is twice as good as Zhang's against Ma Long, for me Ma Long will go down as the best in my lifetime.

There have been no attacker like him before and doubt in future.Un paralleled both forehand and back hand attacks.Better than anyone before and in future.

Ma Long; a great player ever. Respect Him.

[guitarnoob]

I didn't know you could actually serve an ace in table tennis, especially in the pro circuit

[evanzeng]

Yes there are other formidable players in Chinese team, but his tech, poise and modesty made him the real dragon of pingpong Kingdom.

"Ma long days of table tennis is over" -Ma Long

Jk it's me

[underrated]

Table tennis is fun. You can go back and forth all day. It's a momentum thing. I played where me and my opponent were going back and forth for about 2 or 3 minutes strong. Returning some crazy shots back at each other but it's all about who blinks first. You got to be keyed in on that ball. Once you do that you will become great. Nice video and I love the music. These guys are freaking awesome!!

Ngl I miss seeing Ma Long being the World Number 1 as well as it's been over 6 years from now since he was last WR1. Ma Long might not be in his Prime these days but he's still the best Player in the world especially against the new generation of Table Tennis like Wang Chuqin, Lin Shidong, etc.

The Goat still prove he is still the GOAT of TT
