He is the most entertaining and explosively talented table tennis player I have ever seen! Even being more of a showboating player he has had a pretty good career- 1 olympic bronze,WTTC bronze,European champion.
6:11 - 6:36 The craziest thing is that after surviving MP on these two points, MM actually went on to win the match!
One word
AMAZEing
3:20 Holy shit, I didn´t know Ovtsharov could do that.
6:52 I need to learn how to do this.
flagella1337 called an cannonball loft, super tricky but with the right tap it’s doable
Is kind of hard
I think it’s called a fluke
50 years from now, machines would probably be able to do this.
@@nephronpie8961 going through an existential crisis? Loll
Maze is a legend, inspired me a lot when I was a kid!
Really enjoyed the video thanks for posting
What brutal side spin. Awesome
He is a true legend 🤯🔥🔥
Ah, Maze... Amazing!
Great video. Thanks.
Simply aMazing sharp shooter ... naturally born then crafted to perfection !
Great Video!
WOW! Fantastic skills!!!
One of the most creative players
He is the main reason why I have become a great table tennis player
5:56 amazing
darsheal agarwalla wow
For such a tall player he is very agile. His footwork combined with his length enables him to get to shots most others wouldn't be able to make. Combined with those backhand shots... holy crap!
What I also found amazing was how many players found his high backhand topspin balls so difficult to finish. Very often they hit it JUST behind the net and after a few times of Maze returning it again somehow they just couldn't do it.
Simply amazing.
Are you serious?His footwork just was terrible for a pro.He had good touch though.
1 dislike is from Hao Shuai! :D
Ma Lin has taught him a lesson after beating Hao Shuai...
@@petertang3903 a hárd lesson
amazing!!!
The crowd sounds like the crowd from wii sports.
1:02
Chinese niggas are robots what else do you expect?
krecik317 WTF 🤦♂️
@@krecik317 yes they are more disciplined than you and is why you will never see them outside the top 3 at any given sport in the olympics,they arent robots ,they are better than you and me
anabolic stephen Well, trust me that if any other western country had 1 billion people to choose their athletes etc from they would dominate everything you mentioned
HE'S BACK BABY!
The king of defence maze!
Unbelievable!
Only one word amazing....
indra pithak aMAZEing
Nice vid 😉
Wow, just WOW! Believe it or not, I've actually heard people say that table tennis wasn't a sport, including a popular radio commentator in Phoenix. So many people have such small universes.
Some will say Xu Xin was the king of lobbing, but this man was amazing on his prime
Why am I watching table tennis at 4am when I have school at 8
AMZEING player indeed :)
that is mad ting
3:56
Holy crap
That first clip the ball is making such a nice noise
Dima playing without the moaning is great. 😂
Du spillede sgu en gang underholdende bordtennis Maze -:)
I do the same!!!! (A few leages lower;)
wow
Please do Ryu Seung Min :)
Great winner. Hot temper!.
Godly backhand
Maze - Oh that's the weirdest matchup, so different styles.
amazeing ;)
I am from denmark
RIP Michael Maze
Hey, have you ever seen xu xin playing?
Wew tt videos look so prehistoric
Es marquitos di palma 🤯
M. Salman good playing
Can you do koki niwa
Thank you for a suggestion, I will do Koki Niwa tribute.
suprb
Lobs are quite common these days ... but Maze has amazing side spin.
I think he's the real show man! haha
no one can copy his style!
I do things like this most of the time but I am a right hander
@@velekorunoski5997And not really good in comparison.
@@RalphHund what do you mean exactly?
God like reaction time!
Remind me of Randy Daytona
2:05 snake shot !
Anybody else think Brad Pitt could play Maze if they ever made a movie about him? They look very alike!
Good video, love when the audience gets into the point. I wish tennis would allow audiences to be audiences and cheer for people while they play instead of having to stay hush quiet.
He is Chen Wexing's best friend a.k.a The Angry Chopper
The Angry Lobber
i like MM
He Come from denmark
He is from Denmark!!!
This guy better than matt wii sports resort
Maze is/was a special player. I think he never quite reached his full potential for a variety of reasons.
Maze runner
Hard rubber and hard blade plus hard control
He reminds me of Fabrice Santoro and Rafael Nadala in tennis.
Novak Djokovic has the same defence
0:15 double bounce
Sushil Shrestha it hit the net then the table.
Sushil Shrestha It was a net ball
I definitely heard it hit table twice
@@Metow677 No, the net produces a sound because they have mics directed at the table.
0:14 no one saw this? wtf
Umbrella it was the net and then the table
@@carlsenkel1141 no it wasn't play it in slow motion
@@anishkrishanthan5036 you have probably never played table tennis if you think a ball going that fast can possibly land twice on the table
Ikr
My coach says I have a similar play style
2:03
like adam bobrow style
maze is a"maze"ing ;)
Sounds like bike glue, when was this match played/filmed?
What is lob?
Ma Long laughs with Xhang JK
When he gets really far away edgy not just hit it super soft and get him
Mega mega omg these guys won the Chinese I’m freakin out no I’m passing out help
I have never seen that kinda of shot
did anybody else realize the ball bounced twice at 0:14?
anyone else noticed that the ball double hit Bolls side when Maze hit it ?
No
alcomix416 l Rocket league yep
OK, but 3:24 is Dima's sidespin and his point; and his bh hook-shot is even better than Maze'.
tubeist- dan you are wrong dima backhand was from whole arm and it should be from wrist
Not at all
F'n Slow Who cares what technique they used. It his technique works for him, that’s fine.
F'n Slow you should not use wrist in your backhand. The wrist should just follow the movement of the underarm
Hao shuai disappeared after defeated by Maze
メイスの本名ってミカエル・メイスですか？読み方教えてください
da wn デンマーク人の発音聴けばミヒェルの方が正しいと思いますが、Wikipediaに書いてあるバージョンは英語のマイケルですね。(^-^)
カタカナで書けば、正しい読み方はミカール・メイスだと思います。(私はデンマーク人です)
0:16 2x bounce the ball he didnt know ampire fault
no it hit the net
Yup
Maze also could come back after losing 2 or 3 games.
Did he became a world champion?
maze has tattoos on his arm?!
0:13 pardon me why did they play that double bounce ??
At 0:15 it was at the net then at the table 🤷♂️
"He was one of the last European players who could beat a Chinese." Right, because by being Chinese, you're naturally invincible in table tennis.
what are you on about
PongGod yes, case in point: Harimoto
from a genetic point of view: as much as He Zhi Wen is Spanish...
Stating the obvious, lol. No need to get offended, sir.
Why are they dont play short
Please can you do niwa koki
ROSKILDE!!
00:14 didn't the ball hit twice? 🤨
What happen with him? Some injury ruin his carrier?
He had terrible forehand/footwork technique that caused many injuries since his early 20's.Just look how much he twists his torso.He was very crafty with his shots but he lacked a sound technique biomechanics-wise.
@@dickn.ormous1064 Good to know. Thanks for answer.
pongfinity
he blocks like a badminton player lol
Where is my danish gang at
Why is almost every tt video filmed with a potato?
