@@tomspice73 Joo Se Hyuk was incredibly good, ranked as high as number 6 in the world for a short time. Chen Weixing reached number 9. Currently, Ma Te in China is quite good, although he's not ranked very high for reasons I don't know. Others worth mentioning are Gionis Panagiotis and from way in the past, Norio Takashima. They can all be found on youtube.
@@Barman4200 I'm old enough to have seen Richard Bergmann when he gave an exhibition match at half time of a college basketball game between UCLA and some opponent, back in 1966-1967 or so. He defended very well, and could attack too, but of course the table tennis rackets were primitive back then and you could not put that much spin on the ball.
Why his act same as kojo matsushita /seem like they from same trainer or same study/ i really dont know why ? because they from different team country and culture ????
China national team made Ding as copy of Matsushita for training. He used long pips at that time. Since he had been double inverted rubber user originally, he felt confused of his backhand rubber and changed to short pips(after Koji-copy season).
Legend
good defensive player from the past.
I think the best ever defensive

@@pukulu Probably the best defensive player ever was Richard Bergmann who won 7 world championships, but of course that was back in the hardbat days
