Michael Maze vs Timo Boll 2008 Polisch Open

[jpctc2008]

这种人输不起，，，就应该禁止参赛啊，，，这是对他对手的一种侮­辱。。

[Irfan87]

Lol, when Maze kicks the table, Boll looks a him like hes abt to say "Whoah bro, take it easy man." Hahahaha.

[Suppenhuhn655]

Unglaubliche Ballwechsel !

Aber Maze spielt nach meiner Meinung schöner, er macht einfach zu viele Fehler !

[ilocano75]

Michael Maze is a Blackbelt in TAEKWONPONG!

[Supersonicnumber1]

Wow maze sure needs control. You could get fined for it.

[jaime2658780]

Hahaha Maze kicks at the table (3.39) and it seems to me that also spits on the floor (3.46), what manners buddy... hahaha

[capflodberg]

@jaime2658780 spitting on the flor can be to get a better grip sometimes, don't think that's the case here though but yeah =)

[jaime2658780]

@capflodberg you are right, spitting on the floor in front of you and put your feet on it to get them wet helps for a better grip but Maze spits turning his head to his right. I think he did it for another purpose...

[capflodberg]

@jaime2658780 yeah, I know, that's y I ended wth "don't think that's the case here"

and I agree with u

and just saw my misspelling of floor xD

feelin good 'bout myself; no

but I do agree, he should learn manners, sure I got pissed when I played to, but never kicked the table or spat, though I stomped the ground a couple of times xD

[jaime2658780]

@capflodberg Thanks. I did not express my idea properly below because nobody can play with a wet floor and with wet tennis shoes. Both the floor and the tennis shoes must be dry in order not to slid down when playing. I suppose the gob (of spit) cleans the surfaces of the floor and tennis shoes to help for a better grip but it must be dried before you start to play again after spitting.

[capflodberg]

@jaime2658780 Yeah, though I used a damp towel when I was playin, works just aswell as spitting on the floor but to me it feels fresher so t say

[Gonxa2002]

what does the yellow card means?? is it just a warning???

Umm and.. Timoo ruless!! i like maze stylee.. but.. Timoo Rules!!

[tabletennis4]

@Gonxa2002 yellow card is just a warning if u get another ur disqualified from the tournement

[ichach1337]

Timo is extremely inspiring!

[jfdude10]

speed glue ban has really helped make matches more exciting.

[JackIntheBK]

How come?

[jfeng1992]

it's slower and rallies are longer.

[JackIntheBK]

How come speed glue made the rallies shorter and faster?

[jfeng1992]

Because speed glue promoted a series of players like ma lin who could consistently kill the third ball. not that i have anything against ma lin. but the ban promotes rallies that are further from the table.

[JackIntheBK]

O.K.. I don't understand. I thought that speed glue was what people used to glue their rubber to their blade. How does that affect the rallies?

[jfeng1992]

The speed glue I am talking about has organic solvents that stretch the sponge and make the ball go faster.

[Compantino]

@jfeng1992 You make it look like Ma Lin introduced speed glue when it was started to be usen in the early 70's...

[ttstar8]

whenever maze cracks a spaz or something, or if he gets angry at matches or anything he starts to play better after it. check out his match against Ma Long at the H.I.S world Table Tennis Championships, he gets pissed off at the umpires for telling him to hurry up with the match and he gets angry and then hits like 4 good shots after it

[BarnabasG]

its sad to c that a world class player cant even show a little self-control

[monyeszovic1050]

xD 3:39 kick the table Maze

[monyeszovic1050]

xD 3:37 kick the table Maze

[stevema2]

3:39 --- lmao :p

[GBtabletennis]

Boll and Maze has same looping style.. I love to see them.. Boll plays smarter.. Maze is better from 3th position..

[rodzoid]

what really is the rules of the cards does anything happen

[teamknugg]

its not like he kicked the table hard, he just tapped it, he didnt destroy it or anything, just lightly kicked it, he was just frustrated, who wouldnt get frustrated playing timo boll. ha ha. Maze forever!!

[teamknugg]

maze=the best (not really but in my opinion) :)

[Nittaku4ever]

the reason why maze couldn't control himself was because in that time he was damaged, in the arm I think.. that's what i've read.

[sallom899]

wow.. Maze has an amazing footwork, too bad that he can't control himself..

[pcened]

wow kicking the table is not going to help !!!!

[MightAndMagic8man]

GO MAZE !!!

[karamaneika]

I didn't know you could get a yellow card for misconduct.

[LightSpeed99999]

And a red card gives the opponent a point.

[Zero000MAX]

3:37何が起きて台を蹴ったんだ??!!

[Kittykey98]

gibt es hier auch ienen deutschen Kommentar

[DuchDoby]

Maze never be good as Timo...and he know it :)

[Taiwan168888]

WTF?! The table is innocent.

I like Timo, Korbel, Perrson, and Waldner better. They are most of the time calmer players.

[mikeirvng]

True, but it helped Maze, did you see the next point? I think it's a secret strategy, lol!

[LightSpeed99999]

Scare the opponent!

But Boll actually is very cautious because of Maze's temper.

[Beanny46]

He is frustrated, but he shouldn't throw his temper in a match, that's embarrasing.

By the way, what happens if a player gets a yellow card?

[fifouforever]

I think it's like in football, if you get another one, you lose the match.

[r0b94]

right

[tectonic08]

amazing TT

[8264393]

wow he kick the table!

all lefthanded

[andstayout]

what a child.

[fantasybboy]

i reckon hey? whicch professional player gets pissed off during serious situations only juniors do it. u never see boll doing it

[5nature]

if you watched the 2003 WTTC, boll got pissed off when he played qui yike and eventually lost the match

[chu383838]

maze should break the table

so no match would be continuse...ha

[ImprovinMyGame]

ok I can understand frustration, BUT c'mon man. Don't take it out on the table :(

[fantasybboy]

you got that right

[RynkaB]

hahahahah MAZE IS THE KING!!!!!

[xilpa]

why did he get mad? was that a net or just because he missed the point?

[5nature]

it was probaly a net or an edge, you can see boll doing the ''sorry'' sign

[cassieboy]

The "old" Maze stayed close to the table and was almost constantly hitting forehands. Now he stands further away from table and is not as lethal with his shots.

[peepypoolgott]

i love michael maze for this

[wardm8]

what do you mean by that yellow card?

[shattaD]

just like football... when you do something disrespectful or violent.. depending on the seriousness of it you either get red or yellow... nothing with 1 yellow, 2 yellow means a red and a red means the match is over and you have to leave the building

[az159143]

5 stars

[perniciousnc]

dam maze has reached his peak, and he realized that. He's always getting pissed now. wish him luck

thx for sharing

[reverters]

Yeah, the whole match, with every point he didn't make, he was getting agressif
