No, he won 6 times only.

​@peterhammer6915 Yes. He won the World Open 8 times which is a world record to this day.

johangir khan his brother won 8 times undefeated for 5 years@@saleemkirmani5583

Apart form Jahangir

true fitness and speed have taken technique to cleaners now

Greg, you have to ask Mr. Frisoni

At 14 all you could either do set 3 meaning game finishes whoever reaches 17 first or difference of 2 which means it can continue for longer.

@@kazimzainab @gsk308 it was Set 1 or Set 3. Set 1 was a sudden death point

Rowdier too. Much better atmosphere.

it's so hard to find a game of squash of TV. PSA should change this pay to watch model and provide more add supported free streaming.

Even if you have a good product, you have to sell it. I remember that I talked in 2006 at the world championship in Cairo with an elder journalist that used to cover squash. He said that now squash is far more enjoyable to watch than in the 80s, but far less people are interested by squash.

I don't think it was always like this. This was a Brit finally challenging the legendary Pakistani domination! I think I lot of the noise here is that riling up the home crowd...

@@FabIsFab7867 I agree with your elder journalist friend -- I consider the dynamic modern game is much more enjoyable than the attritional game of the eighties and before (the old game usually comprising lots of long, boring rallies up and and the side wall)

Absolutely amazing squash player , you have to put the game in perspective. Technology has change dramatically and the game has changed ie the tin is lower now than back then ,squash rackets , squash balls , footwear etc. Also the all glass court hasn’t been around for long back then only used for major tournaments because of the cost involved to transport it around where as today every complex has all glass court situated on there premises. Tell me have you ever played on a all glass court because I’m telling you it aren’t like playing on a normal court. Today’s players are a lot fitter and faster because the tin lower by 2 inches .

Yes, Jansher was "really actually amazing" -- he had the ability to read the situation extremely quickly and respond with accurate and well-weighted shots. I had the pleasure of refereeing him twice back in the day, and was amazed at the ease and fluidity of his movement. The only later players I can immediately think of who had similar fluidity of movement are Ramy Ashour and Ali Farag

Yep.

@@mikemcsherry1120 Today’s players also benefit hugely from PARS point system most of Janshers games were the old style handout scoring. So there’s no way they were fitter Jansher would go around most of the top ten today with ease if he was in his prime.

Seemed pretty even to me on both sides. Nicol had some asks that were questionable

Most decisions seemed to go Nichols way. A few questionable Lets.

​@@SquashShortShotsExactly.

Relax there amateur

All modern players think jansher was the greatest. Read a bit

@@arthurdubois9978 ok Arthur Jansher in his prime vs Elshorbagy, who’s your money on? You know there is only one answer.

@@Tyt130 Ramy Ashour says the player he would want to play against the most is Jansher. Jansher is probably the most complete player ever. He'd win against Elshorbagy 9/10 imo. I mean I really can't see a way for Mohammed to win frankly. Jansher's movement was better than Farag and his backhand was probably the best ever. Maybe he could be rushed by quick volleys? How do you see that?

@@hamzaliaqatmehmood I think you need to up your medication.
