Kento momota was world number one and won a record 11 international titles in 2019. On the way to the Kuala Lumpur airport, his van crashed into the back of a lorry at high speed. The van driver was killed. Kento momota was seriously injured. Since then, Kento has never been the same again. Kento usually lose in the early rounds to unseeded players. He can't overcome the psychological barrier. 😢😮😢😮
Now as I'm watching this I think I can see a little bit prime Momota in current Naraoka. This is my point of view as a new badminton fan because I wasn't there following and watching Momota's journey. I wish Momota will be making his come back because he is same age with Axelsen. Even Axelsen is still on fire now until Paris 2024, and point count for Paris 2024 started on May 2023. The one who can beat Axelsen is Momota based on head-to-head records. I hope Momota will be back and sparring together with Naraoka. Sorry my bad englishhh
Not only momota, LZJ too can defeat Axelsen if he plays like he did in 2021AE open finals. Younger players like Tze Yong, Naraoka and even Li Shi Feng too have a serious chance if they put their best
his strong point is footwork and court control. he was too fast vs the rest, that made his opponents are kind of losing control and end up losing point by making mistake
Nah, this vid shows exactly why Momota was king of jazz for such a short while. His style is based on such precision that the slightest percent off is fatal. Unlike Axelsen, who was born taller and stronger, momota had to rely on practically zero error. Short peak
Tbh I don think it was the accident anymore that caused momots to dropped form. Something actually happen to his body, he was still winning after the accident. Don’t blame the accident anymore. I think the main reason is not that anymore

This Momota's footwork is just artwork
Indeed

This Momota had the 2008 Lin Dan confidence. So dominant, so precise. Shame what happened to him.
Yes I agree. Even his play style was a little similar to Lindans. I mean in his shot choice
he had a terrible accident didn’t you know? look up
@@ishooter8061 i said shame bro i think that implies I know what happens to him
@@gouahh359 oops sorry i read in a rush
He had the endurance and consistency just to wait for his opponents to screw up
one of the best videos in terms of quality of game and also the angle it was captured..good work..
Momota at his prime was really the best after Lin dan and LCW
The fact that he is even compared with prime Lin Dan speaks volumes about how good he is
@@user-gz7fh8vo6e優劣で議論が起こることがよくあるが全盛期のリンダンと比べるという土俵にいるのがすごい
I would say he is on par with LCW in his prime, slightly lower in LD though
i miss the old kento momota , his smashes was the most precise , but now he only clears or drops his overhead shots
In car crash accident he is nearly killed on 13 jan 2020 after that he is still playing such a consistent player ❣️
He never made a single mistake at that time perfect badminton.
what an excellent camera view. Enjoyed to the fullest.
you can see the absolute difference. man was a beast. hope he can find his form back
The 2018 momota is simply unstoppable
It's always this angle where I can appreciate the speed of the smash
True.... Every second counts...😊
Brilliant angle. Probably the best on youtube. Do you have more vids like these?
3:39 ここのラウンドのフォーム綺麗、そして体幹がすごい
Both players were unbelievable at the time
Chou is still really consistent and now this year he is on the second place in rank after axelsen
I know, but Chou faced in 2019 Momota's best form, one of his best performance
Can you share the link to full match. I am not able to find it on the source channel.
かっこよ

@@gamerzlol6176idk what happen to LZJ, the all england is his best performance
his strong point is footwork and court control.
he was too fast vs the rest, that made his opponents are kind of losing control and end up losing point by making mistake
芸術。
the best
Smoth footwork
I can watch his footwork all day long!!
今と動きが全然違う、、、コート内走ってるって感じしててすごい、、、
This camera angle shows exactly how difficult and exhausting the badminton footwork is.
That stare from CTC at 7:13 was colddd. He was annoyed that Momota wanted to trick him lol
momota is not even that old yet , someone is already making a prime video for him. lol
Nah, this vid shows exactly why Momota was king of jazz for such a short while. His style is based on such precision that the slightest percent off is fatal. Unlike Axelsen, who was born taller and stronger, momota had to rely on practically zero error. Short peak
Victor has a way losing h2h against kento and only became better after his injury, his really lucky kento got injured or he be lcw to kento s Lin Dan
if Momota didn't get hurt, no one would know VA. The man was 0-12 in professional matches against Momota pre-injury.
So the focus is on Momota and his prime then his opponent Chou was on his prime stage too to be able to sparring with him.
この時の桃田はマジで無駄のない動きだしショットにも無駄がない、エグい
do you have 2nd set?
Why cut off Momota's losing 2nd game?
11 titles in a single season no one cuf of tea.. 🤯
the tea and the cuf
I feel like there's no way to make it difficult for momota
the infamous peachy smash!!!

Tbh I don think it was the accident anymore that caused momots to dropped form. Something actually happen to his body, he was still winning after the accident. Don’t blame the accident anymore. I think the main reason is not that anymore
Mark my worďs he's coming back and so is his prime
I pray he will
It looks like the current players on top play much more and better smashes and attacking shots nowadays.
its mainly axelson and lzj with tremendous smashes
@@AJ-sz3xp Yes, but Loh Kean Yew's smash was also really impressive when he won the WC last year.
momota stayed the same others just got better face it!
@@reoju7677 bruh what? yep u dont analyse games
@@AJ-sz3xp wow sound like you analyse a billion games and we should all listen to you, get a grip on reality and wake up from your fantasy!
Kento Momota announces his retirement on the 18th. I'll remember you forever, my favorite badminton player of all time.
he doesn’t do that anymore, any high ball he will just glide and dropshot 😂
Proud to see a Sikh refree ❤
He couldve dominated like lindan did
Sadly i dont see Taiwan’s flag in the ceiling. Hopefully its obscured
Momota met a terrible accident and that’s how he lost his old form and power. bad luck
The accident made him stopped playing badminton for 1 year, thus his physical level dropped.

Finished watching 10:35
Momota's prime is not as strong as LD's prime
それはわからないが確実に言えることはkentoは簡単に勝てる相手ではない
I'm sorry but prime Momota 110% it's just 75% prime LD n LCw .... Maybe... Maybe prime Momota as same as prime Peter Gade 25 - 30 years old
Now as I'm watching this I think I can see a little bit prime Momota in current Naraoka. This is my point of view as a new badminton fan because I wasn't there following and watching Momota's journey. I wish Momota will be making his come back because he is same age with Axelsen.

I hope Momota will be back and sparring together with Naraoka. Sorry my bad englishhh
Yeah same goes to kodai
