"getting a 147 is easy"
+Mike S "Only Ronnie..." - John Virgo
Poor Ken. 🤣
See , Ronnie has settled the argument /debate 👆
147 is easy
he literally reinvents the meaning of "you know"
Ronnies fake laugh and his casual movement to get Doherty's hand off his arm at 1:36 is BRILLIANT
'maxes are quite easy to make'
Ronnie: I needed something to turn me on
Selby: This was disrespactfull to me and the game
lol
Genuinely brilliant - more talented than the rest of the top 10 altogether and plays for himself - cracking TV and a really enjoyably normal bloke.
"It's nice to not make a maxi." -- Ronnie O'Sullivan to Ken Doherty.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 that was hilarious
no other snooker player in history has ever declared that he will make a 147 in tournament by asking what the prize money is for a maximum......and then actually making one.....only Ronnie because he's the best we've ever had
amarsbarr twice
@@playafromthehimalaya8755 Stephen Henry and bret hart would disagree😁
Here after hes just won his 6th world title and ruffled a few feathers along the way haha the goat
I have a huge respect for this man. He has had his problems, and we hope he will play and compete for years to come. I watched The Masters recently and he was awesome. Poor Mark Selby looked quite shell-shocked in the Final and was thrashed. Ronnie is just an awesome player.
Great to know he holds Steve Davis and Stephen Hendry as his idols.
Most naturally talented snooker player ever, the best to watch, the best to support - ever game was a roller-coaster of his emotions, could go from completely off the boil to the best in the world in the space of a few frames. My favourite ever; I feel privileged to have been alive and interested from when he was first playing to now.
Ronnie's response at 1:38 is just too good :D
what a legend! ronnie is like the liam gallagher of snooker!
1:38, hahahaha look at Ronnies fake laugh
Ace Boogie wtf, I rewatched that a few times. It's really weird!
Haunter that was ken Doherty laugh I think, NOT Ronnie
Interesting bit of body language there between Ken and Ronnie. Ken appears to put his arm on Ron, who seems to reject this which makes Ken more nervous than he already is and he proceeds to laugh loudly why Ron screws his face, likely in disgust.
steve dean watch Ken Dohertys laugh in 0.5x speed. Very, very creepy.
@@dilksjoel too much time on your hands dude.. ha ha only joking.
Always very honest
Honest my arse !!! He just likes being controversial.
Hes not in it for the money yet drives supercars and lives in multi million pound houses !!! TOTALLY FULL OF SHIT !!!
he is a showman ... period
the man is a fucking legend .. what an ordinary man deserves great respect ..hero
Ronnie
Has
Got
D.O.W.N.S
It's now 2022 and 7 time world champion Ronnie Osullivan is the best snooker player to have ever played the game and a national treasure
you're wrong, pal. RONNIE is the FEDERER in Snooker, the REAL MADRID in Snooker, the Mike Tyson in Snooker, the Tiger Woods in Snooker...
We should be glad we've got someone so charismatic and open, and not a media demagogue
hes brilliant.. hes a legend
I think ronnie bashed back a big line of chang before this interview.
+jallalabadreturns no doubt about it.
Wrong... you foolishly choose a syntheitic high rather than imagine how he may feel after such a legendary moment. The guy put himself under it purposesly after ball 2 amd risked looking an idiot, you simply can't comprehend or empathise what he's just achieved. Neither can I to be frank, I know he's not on drugs though.
@ maybe you need a line of something to calm down a bit.
@ the comments aren't milk. If he wants to respond he can do.
@@stevecheetham7436 It's clearly a joke. The comment is 5 years old. You must be fun at parties you absolute whalloper.
on the annotation, u will love it :D
Ronnie's fake laugh at 1:38.... priceless
Ken did eventually get his 147 in August 2012 at the Paul Hunter Classic
Many people hate Ronnie, but believe me, when he's gone, snooker will be a much poorer place. 30 years ago, he'd have been called a character and celebrated. Alex Higgins is adored for pissing in plant pots in the arena, fighting 80-year old referees and drinking himself to death, while Ronnie has raw poison poured down his throat for walking out on a snooker match on a day when his mental illness - depression is no act and no-one ever asks to have it - was at its' worst. He's a legend.
If you pause at 1:36, Ronnie looks scared from the way Ken is staring at him whilst laughing 😂, I'd be creeped out
And he shakes his hand off his arm as well 😂
Also look at steve davis face change from 1:38 - 1:39 😂
@@jrspiritcommunicator7611 lmao that's exactly the look you get when your bowels start turning, and you know you are not in the comfort of your own home to do anything about it 😂😂
Knows his shit! Ronnie does.
has anyone found a better quality version of this vid? audio isn't too flash, still appreciate it though
if he wants pressure go for the lowest possible that would be very much harder to do a red and a yellow that would be a feat
Ron Thomas don't think even Ronnie could do that
+James Adcock Why? What makes it so hard?
Haha I think I could die happy if I ever saw someone pot 15 reds followed by 15 yellows and all the colours for a 72 winning break.
or take 13 reds and 13 yellows for 39 break for the guy to clear the last to reds and colours to win 43-39. lmao
No "jamie b" Ronnie said he doesn't want all his money going to his children thats why he's sending them to 10k a term schools so they can earn their own money and success and not be spoilt by thinking they are going to inherit his fortune. Lets face it he will never be poor and i think he said it as a bit of a joke. He's probably more concerned now about getting as much money before retirement than he previously was in 2010.
God, whenever Ken Doherty starts speaking I start looking around the room for a sturdy belt and chair with a low centre of gravity.
He is most definitely a LEGEND!
What do you mean? What you call a cue is actually part of his arm.
2:54 doherty's reaction LOL
why did he need a snooker cue for the interview
Because he might drop into the arena for an unscheduled *"Maxi"* for exhibition..
Does anyone kno who he played when he got that 140 break?
at 3:50, O'Sullivan hesitates a bit when talking about Hendry. He has to lie about him liking Hendry, coz his Autobiography says differently lol
Ronnie is one of those players you love but also hate him at the same time...It's because he's so great at snooker but a bit naughty with it, he gets away with all the bad behaviour, because he's so good and nobody wants to have a go at him
@exxyeddie yeah, and Shaun Murphy is considered an "ambassador" for the game, and has criticised Ronnie for not doing much to promote the game, but it's probably Ronnie who has brought more to the game, in terms of making it popular, because he's got a bit of personality. So far as Murphy goes, he's quite a dull guy, Ronnie's a more interesting person.
He gives his kids the best gift any parent can give. Especially a working class one. A 1st class education.
Genius - and mad as a balloon.
He is brilliant but how many times does he say: "you know"? seriously count it.
@MyDJMixes rofl!! you're right, mate. I didnt notice it the first time, though. Dont know if he's doing it intentionly or not but he's funny as hell. Way funnier than most of the 'professional' comedians.
maxie when he wants
hahah 2.55 look at davis' face. what a legend.
Love it when Ron, flings kens hand off his arm, then clenches his fist. My blood would be boiling to if I heard Kens laughter right beside me. lol
What the fk are you talking about. Ronnie didn't do anything of the sort. Kens hand was off him and Ronnie was just gesticulating with his arm. Utter nonsense you're talking.
i get soo annoyed when ppl call nadal the greatest player of all time or classy or the ronnie of tennis. its def. federer. i swear they say it just to annoy people. nadals a great player dont get me wrong.
Style variable
Naaa, the tennis equivalent of Ronnie is Federer. A pure natural tallent, makes it look soo effortless when he's in the zone. Nadal is more brute force power and determination.
Damn audio
@DLPBurke Absolutely Agree!
Funny how they’d always sit with their snooker cue in the studio after the match - just in case you can’t figure out what you’re watching.
O'Sullivan contradicts himself all the time. He asked the referee what the prize money was for a 147 before going for the final black.If he'd been told it was a £50,000 pot for a 147, would he still have refused the black? Not a chance! As they say in Scotland, 'He does blether a load of pish so that he does.' Another thing being: Every year for the last ten, he says he's going to retire and every year he's back, 'blethering' the same 'pish.'
stunninglad1 He really isn't. He explains this several times in this exact interview: he asked about the prize money to make everyone aware he was going for a maximum for the pressure it would put on him to actually make it. He also goes quite deep into explaining how he doesn't do this for the money and that he doesn't need it. This isn't contradicting himself. As for your last point: the man has openly admitted to having issues with both motivation and depression. He has a family that he puts above all else including the game, which is probably why he wants to retire. You're entitled to your opinion about not wanting him back, but as for myself I would hate to see him leave the game.
+b0rris you are talking rubbish.
alan frazer O-okay I guess. What's rubbish about what I wrote though?
Ronnie is all about the money. See the Barry Hearn interview
That's why I love Stephen Hendry more than Ronnie since that frame. Different person different classes. And most importantly don't lie to yourself !
To do it must go down as good as the china interview......lol.....fucking legend
What does Ronnie say at 2:50... ?
come on ronnie we all love watching u play and i think once in a while its ok to give a FREE 147. take it easy dude u have made tons ............. take it as charity to the audience.......
Ronnie 2010 - "I don't want my money to go to my children - I don't want them to be spoiled"
Ronnie 2013 - "I'm only back for the WSC to pay for my childrens' school fees".
Ha.
Well done
school is a bit different
I don’t see why that is funny in any way shape or form? If you can’t see how putting kids through a good school is different from leaving them loads of money then the joke is on you sir.
Exactly school is not a needless luxury its nothing like being spoiled 😂
BIG DIFFERENCE in paying school fees so his children get a decent education so they can get a decent job and take care if themselves and just giving them a load of cash so they can be spoiled and used to getting everything they want
Hmmm I might be mistaken but I thought Ronnie was kicking off that there was not enough money in the game anymore (which is true as maximums used to pay out more), a bit contradictory!
'i enjoy playing snooker now an again'
@kanchnmoneygrowth u spanish ?
i dont think u are spoiled if u are going to school..
-sniiiiif- Ronnie dodged the drug test bullet after this interview.
i cant stop staring at his eye brows Ô.Ô
Anyone else feel awkward watching ken laugh his ass off after mentioning he missed the last black unintentionally, no one else laughs, Ronnie flicks Ken’s hand off his arm, then he pulls a fake laugh towards the end. Ronnies like why so serious haha poor ken.
Here in 2020 people who wonder who's the best, (which to me is a poor question, irrelevant or whatever) listen to Ronnie say how good he thinks Stephen Hendry is. I am I fan of Ronnie and Stephen.
the balotelli of snooker
gotta go down as good as the china interview... brilliant
2.30 ken goes 'urrrrrrrrrrrrrrr'. lol
probably coz everyones thinking, shit! wish i cud even make ONE in a season, let alone a prize for the MOST maxi's!
Should be £147,000 in my opinion
What's he mean bu China interview?
its not about money clearly it is now
"...and to do it, that's gotta go down as good as the China interview"
LOLOLOLOLOL :D :D :D
WTF with the caps compo below
On the table genius, possibly the best ever. Off the table a terrific bore and to be avoided. So it goes.
@Oliver McCall I am glad that you think that way mate. I too am glad that nobody does interviews like him.
@Oliver McCall in that case I suppose we ought to hope that he doesn't retire, then everybody else in snooker can carry on being boring snooker players.
at 1:35 the ultimate joyless laugh :)
poor doherty....
@ 1:33 i nearly pissed myself. poor ken -.-
For anyone who doesn't know when he says better than his china interview, go watch it, seriously ? "anyone wanna nosh me off" ? hahaha
theres a thing at ken doherty does at 1.38, like the lil nod thing? i fookin hate it when people do that lol. dunno why.
Why is every second comment about tennis? Not even replies, just standalone comments.
Ronnie is nice :)
watch it
Hazel loves it she's got a soft spot for him
Steve Davis be like .....
Was not even the maximum break possible anyway.
This is the infmaous China Interview he mentions: watch?v=b7dVkUESj3c
There's a longer version but this short one contains everything you need to know. He's right: Leaving the black would be almost as good as the China interview.
@mattyo96 Just after "to do it"
What does he say at 2:50? "That's gotta go down as good as what????"
The China interview.
I think he was quite rude in that and he was swearing live on tv (but it's China so it's ok, ofcom can't touch him lol)
Samara Weaving Yeah he basically thought that no one there spoke english and starting shouting "suck me off" over his microphone haha
Rem Kingston It was hilarious :-)
Ronnie's sportmanship is inequivalence to Roger... except his talent
Best bit was missed from the interview. Earlier on in the interview when they were discussing Jimmy White, Ronnie slipped out with a 'shit' during the conversation.
Their faces were a picture!!!!!!!!!!!
@dfstarborn he seems to make sense to me here.
he was right.If he left the black.That actually would hv meant more than jst a 147
ronnie totally ignores ken doherty
He'd just left the match.
loool look at ronnie at 1:38, he's look ha ha yh whatever
you can get a lot of money for playing snooker
0:56 no 3000 pound fine?
