I get nervous just by seeing those hands and articulations doing the same movement several times. I hope it don't cause pain on the articulations when they get old.
Don't see why ppl have to leave such biased comments on here! Timo Boll is not a nobody, nor does he suck. Persson was incredible in the 80's and 90's - both these players deserve our respect, both belong among the 4-5 top european players in the modern era. I delight in seeing Persson still playing incredibly well at 44 - which other sport would have a great match between two stars with a similar age gap? But Boll is deservedly the best European of the last decade.
WOW! Great match! Two of my fav players! Right now, Timo is the only player who can truly stand up to the Chinese, but I wish Persson was still at his best. He wasn't inducted into the ITTF Hall of Fame for nothing! A lot of people have a point here... I love Timo, but the commentator seems really biased... Persson, you're a legend! We love you, too!
Look at how Boll stays much closer to the table than Persson, dominating the rallies. Even at 3.50 when hes pushed away he still moves forward after topspinning Perssons smash to eventuallly win the point....quality.
The point starting at 3:40. When Timo is looping from really far: WOW that takes alot of strength, I start to wear out after 1 or 2 of those loops. !!!!!!!!!
Wow Boll was in top form. I remember Waldner in the mid 80's just starting to make a name for himself..and Person was a little junior. When it comes longevity..no one can beat Waldner and person
Yep. Persson was winning the world championship when Timo was still learning how to read. Now 17 years later he can still play against the top players in the world

Boll's counter topspin attack is simply incredible, no matter it's off-the-table or close-to-the-table.
If his self-initiated attacks are more lethal, he would easily be the number one in the world
