    Few have compared KV to KM'19, it can't be more wrong, KV is not moving VA remotely as well as KM used to, you gotta move that tall frame. KV's is more of CYF style than that of KM's.

    Just gonna say that Momota is 2 CM taller than Vitidsarn. So more or less, Vitidsarn is about the same height as Momota. But I think the 2018/2019 Momota would beat the 2022 Viktor. In fact, I think the 2018/2019 would beat prime Viktor, in any year of Viktor's prime.

    For sure, height gives you an advantage in badminton (unless you are freakishly tall, like over 7 feet tall, where balance becomes an issue with very tall people). But prime Momota was able to negate Viktor's height advantage by reading Viktor, and playing shots where Viktor couldn't use his height advantage as much.

    Business as usual for VA. Was that really a difficult side?

    can't see anyone reaching VA's level of perfection
    if he continues like this till paris OG,
    he will have :
    3 WC
    2 OG
    and many other titles
    along with possibly the best w/l ratio

    Momota vs VA was supposed to be the new rivalry like LD vs LCW, such a shame momota had to experienced all that accident. like even if viktor somehow keep losing to momota its still much better than watching him destroying everyone like this

    I think 2018-2019 momota would have difficulty reaching a 3rd set against 2022 viktor

    Never seen such a huge gap of a certain player with the rest of the other players. VA is literally at the top of the food chain, devouring everything in his path. No one comes close to him at his present form. That is what you get when you play during the prime of LD and LCW. Of all the players, he benefited the most from those experience.

    I think it's Momota's style that troubled Viktor, and that's why Momota had such a huge H2H record against Viktor, prior to the last year. Of course, Momota is a shell of his former prime.
