@@sebastianmunoz3484 he was constantly on his peak from 2015 - 2021 I think.

his movements are not "far" from his peak

No spectators. Liu Guolang, the chinese table tennis legend as player and coach, once said that he concerns about the popularity of table tennis more than the result of matches. Heavyweight balls are luring stupid stuff in table tennis. They make table tennis become bored with very few touches in every balls series, and with more offgame time, less long rallies, less visual athletic skills shows. The less touches in every ball series, the less ongame time, the more offgame time, and players lose more their time for offgame time to go to pick up balls. HEAVYWEIGHT BALLS MAKE TABLE TENNIS MANUFACTURER AND PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS TO BE POORER AND POORER, because heavyweight balls make table tennis extremely difficult to play amateur social games for new beginners. Thus majority of new beginners leave away from table tennis, and there be very few new beginners still keep playing table tennis (extremely difficult to play game for beginners). It requires few weeks of training for new beginners to reach minimal amateur levels to play amateur social games in other sport, for example in badminton, billards, .. . BUT IT REQUIRES FEW YEARS OF TRAINING FOR NEW BEGINNERS TO REACH MINIMAL AMATEUR LEVEL TO PLAY AMATEUR SOCIAL TABLE TENNIS GAMES. It is very stupid big time training requirement for beginners in table tennis, thus majority of new beinners just leave table tennis. I personally see much many real life cases today : private commercial table tennis club halls are revamped to become badminton club halls, because table tennis is extreme difficult to attract enough number of new beginners to get profit for running commercial table tennis clubs as commercial social sport services. If the commercial private table tennis halls have high ceils, then their owners often cancel table tennis club services to convert halls into commercial badminton club or other sport services halls to get profit, because there are very few new amateur table tennis players. The reason of stiff difficulty of table tennis for new beginners : heavyweight balls make table tennis to be extremely difficult for new beginners : they fly extremely lightening fast in air, and they are difficult to control for beginners. Lightweight balls make table tennis become extreme easier for new beginners : they fly slower in air, they are easier to control for beginners. With lightweight balls, every ball series will have more touches in average. Thus table tennis matches will have more ongame time and less offgame times, thus players have more ongame time. It is valuable ! Because amateur players pay their time to play table tennis matches for health and social fun/communication, thus the more offgame time, the less waste time for players ! Everyone can try lightweight balls, for example 2gr balls, to feel how extremely more easily to play table tennis for new beginners. The next balls of table tennis must be lightweight balls, for example, 2-2.5gr balls instead of the current 2.7gr balls. The result of lightweight balls will be staggering : there will be more billion new beginners come and keep playing table tennis with new lightweight balls of 2gr, because lightweight balls do not require stupid enormous few years of training to reach minimal amateur level to play amateur social table tennis game, but require only few weeks of training enough to play amateur social table tennis games. Of course, it leads to increadible big scale business of table tennis equipment manufacturers, it leads to increadible big number of table tennis audience of professional tournaments . Because new billion beginners will play and keep playing the easier version of table tennis with lightweight balls 2-2.5gram, but not the current stupid extreme difficult version of table tennis with heavyweight balls 2.7gram, thus they known playing table tennis as amateur players and once they known playing then they will have interest to watch table tennis tournaments. They will be billion one, once lightweight balls 2-2.5gram are applied in table tennis.

Not for long anymore ;)

Yes, and once his errors are gone, he will become a more tactical player like fzd and become less exciting.

How you know that ? You read their mind ?

@@majestytdby observation i presume?

Ma is also 94 years old

I mean he has more experience

No Alexis played REALLY CARELESS AND PERFORMED BADLY AT THE LAST FEW GAME POINTS ….if it s not …HE COULD WIN THAT GAME SET AND GOING TO THE DECIDER

progresser en perdant 4-0 contre slovenian D Gjorkic

Oui la défaite fait partie de la progression.

Its like to watch Djokovič vs Alcaraz. 😍😀

I noticed this with Ma Long rarely putting his hand up with Alexis serving fast and basically countering all of Alexis unique shots. Then you remember the last guy to beat Ma Long, LYJ would have played Alexis. 🤔 Could have an interesting set of games coming up.

Exactly! Well said, and that was why people called Ma Long a GOAT!

Exactly! Well said. ML is GOAT!

ma long is not a goat. it's a good player with powerfull forehand than other

True but the windmill still worked lmao

​@@mth_picturescalm down internet expert😂

@@mth_pictures you call him “it”??? What are you? Animal?

You should become a "ping pong" guy! It's the best sport in the world in my opinion! Also, we in the business usually call it Table Tennis, ping pong is what people play in their basement with the 5 dollar rackets from Walmart lol 😂.

Ma long is not gonna stay on top very long

@@Zuriki_ ma long is legend. And u? Cry kid Potato hater

I see you write/speak French. When Alexis is yelling what is he saying if anything. Is it similar to saying Yes, Ya, Let's go etc. In English? Thanks. And this guy is so exciting, and at only 19!

​​​@@user-ru6mq5sc5n when he yell After winning a point, sometimes he's gonna said "allez" wich mean come on in english but most of the times you can translate that to, yes ,ya, let's go etc

@@Clem_canlers Ok Nice. Thanks

Not for long anymore ;)

it will just be another chinese player. Lebrun is going nowhere

@@cookiebot3369 I doubt there is 19yo chineese players that are way better than Alexi (and even felix 16yo)

if h'es going nowhere i wondering where you at actually . Certainly a zombie geek missing his life@@cookiebot3369

@@PsytripificationFan Zhendong was stronger than him when he came out

The boy is 14 years younger. Just a question of time before he sends Grandpa Ma Long to the cemetery 🤭

his backhand let him down.

Not for long ;)

Bonne analyse . En fait il est typiquement français, innaretable quand il est en feu et enchaîne les services et fautes inutiles de déconcentration parfois.

谈不上天才，就是有点自己的特点而已，跟伊藤，张本一样，打多了被熟悉了就完蛋了。能在顶峰保持一两年的叫冠军，能保持5年以上打遍世界的才是天才。

I think you mixed up the gears 😂😂😂 fourth gear is faster than second gear

Once you start driving you will know why people shift down fow acceleration

I mean. They seem to be send by the goverment. But out of jokes, I see it disrespectful in all ways.

somehow this is the beauty of table tennis, a mixture of physical and mental ability.

The problem of FZD is that he just have A plan game if it doesn't work he lose but it work almost every time because he is extremely good. Compare to Ma Long who is so versatile and if A plan doesn't work he go B then doesn't work he go C plan he can adapt.

well said! That was why ML is GOAT!

« The lollipop » 🔥🔥 even the dragon couldn’t do anything against this serve

At first glance that looked like he was fondling that ball 😂

¿Malone = Ma Long?

Hi dear

Bro…

i don't think so Harimoto has proved already he is a threat for the top chineses players

Alexis plays a very unique style, very deliberate yet unpredictable, with changes in his rhythm, pace and spin, both on his serves, defense and offense. And the best quality I think is that he’s fearless playing against the top Chinese players like FZD and Ma Long. With time, he will be even better I think.

😂 i dont see why you think ma long is not a generational player with all his achievements. Oh is it because he comes from china and supposedly they get whip and deprive of food if they dont win? Oh and here comes the democratic west that wins because of freedom and charisma? F outta here boi. Allen iverson was naturally a great basketball player, but did not win a championship cause he thinks practice is pointless.

He was repetitively trained by his uncle and dad who were professional players since he was able to walk! Playing table tennis was literally ALL the Lebrun brothers have done since they were very little. Please do your research before talking nonsense.
