Vladi, you have been a real force since your match at the 1993 Worlds as a teenager. A class player. A great ambassador for the sport. A true legend. Please keep playing like the evergreen He Zhewen.
Very nice interview. Thanks Adam. I've been a huge fan of Samsonov ever since watching him 20 some years ago. If table tennis ever needs a true spoke person, I would suggest Vladi is it.
I met him at the World Cup 2016 in Saarbrucken, Germany. He is a great person indeed. Im glad table tennis has players like him, Timo Boll and Jorgen Persson.
Thank you, Adam, for doing it! Ilove so much what you are doing! You make table tennis so cozy and homey! And Vladimir SamsoNEVER, rock the Olympics, please! I will support you with all the air I have in my lungs. I know that you can win as you NEVER give up.
What a legend. First stumbled upon this player when I was a kid flicking through the German satellite TV channels. Such a class act after all these years. I've just heard that he's retired.
5 languages, wow... I didn't know that he speaks German, but it makes sense since he played for Düsseldorf in the German league. And how many does Adam speak? 20? xD
Is it just me or iz Adam really giving him the evil eye??watch as he stares at him after asking a question its not a freindly look/stare at times.What do u think?
"I lost against a very weak player today; I still don't understand how I can lose against Zhang Jike." - Samsonov 2016
it was a joke m8
Wow nice joke Vladi...
Yeah it's only a joke but it sounds arrogant, and thas why Vladi straightly correcting "losing against him is absolutely fine""
+joll1e It does not sound arrogant from any angle. Work on your sense of humour!
it was a joke u fucking idiots. he dont have to "correct" anything
There are not many sports in the world that have a commentator/interviewer like Adam Bobrow. A legend already.
Vladi is really funny. I love his sense of humor. :)
Владимир - душевный человек! И чувство юмора на высоте!!!
Vladi, you have been a real force since your match at the 1993 Worlds as a teenager. A class player. A great ambassador for the sport. A true legend. Please keep playing like the evergreen He Zhewen.
AT LAST! MY FAVOURITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME!
Such a gentleman. Thank you, Adam!
Very nice interview. Thanks Adam. I've been a huge fan of Samsonov ever since watching him 20 some years ago. If table tennis ever needs a true spoke person, I would suggest Vladi is it.
So very true. He is the real ambassador of the sport - both on and off the court.
Yes samsanov and Wagner. Wagner best player of all time and samsanov best long-standing player of all time.
I would vote for him AND joo sae hyuk so we have and attacker and a defender. Both masters at their style.
Один из самых лучших игроков современности!!!
I met him at the World Cup 2016 in Saarbrucken, Germany. He is a great person indeed. Im glad table tennis has players like him, Timo Boll and Jorgen Persson.
Vladimir, a table tennis legend! Just Love this man!
I'm somewhat surprised how talkative he is.
He learned english pretty well)
Talkative is not the opposite for gentleman really😌
Best ask a pro yet
Red card? Not yet, I am working on it. Vladi killes this interview. Haha
Many years ago, Vladi was ejected from a game for deliberately damaging his rubber (in order to switch to another racket).
gifted guy, a class act all around
VLADIMIR SAMSONVAAARRRR!?!?!?!?!? lmao These interviews are so cool, thanks to Adam of course!
What a charismatic man, thank you for all these amazing years of table tennis and I hope you give us many many more, you are the best Vladi!
sounds like a great guy,
I like vladi style while discussion .. very calm and relax
samsonov is so cooool... :)
Cool, calm, well mannered and so polite with humour :)
the funniest ask pro anything episode so far
Vladimir SamsoNEVER! Hahaha
The legend...I am big big big fan of him... thanks Adam for showing his this side of character....
Vladimir Samso-NEVER....Just give him that Olympic gold medal already!! :')
Charming. A real gent, and would love to see the 1997 matches vs Wang Liqin and Primorac appear on You Tube (hint, hint).
go to youku.
Thank you, Adam, for doing it! Ilove so much what you are doing! You make table tennis so cozy and homey!
And Vladimir SamsoNEVER, rock the Olympics, please! I will support you with all the air I have in my lungs. I know that you can win as you NEVER give up.
A legendary hero of the table tennis!
Samsonov is actually a really nice guy!
I asked the umpire before I commented
Vladimir is just one of the greatest person in table tennis - great player and great personality :)
What a legend. First stumbled upon this player when I was a kid flicking through the German satellite TV channels. Such a class act after all these years. I've just heard that he's retired.
One of the true living legends! And Vladi.
His match aginst Xu Xin 2012 for me was 🔥🔥
vladi is such a talented, humble, friendly, and funny guy. I hope he will enjoy his retirement and keep being present in the table tennis world!
Fantastic and likeable guy. I really love his humble sense of humor :)
Талантливый человек талантлив во всем.
I practice with samsanov at potters in uk. Was awesome. It testament how good he is that his game so strong 20 year on.
Will there ever be an ask a pro anything for Chen Weixing? Ask him about red cards
Who watch this after he announce his retirement...
Class act!
He is really chill
He is a legend
Do one with J. O. Waldner
Best interview ever
Vladi is cool, as a player and as a person, but in very different ways ! Here he looks so relaxed, and chatty ... it's kinda surprising.
ese servicio alto y con corte para luego apurar con revez plano es marca registrada de Samsonov
i love ask a pro series..
samsonov je veliki brat !!!!
4:25Adam: WTF?!
"Vladimir samsonever!" Bahahaha. Great guy!
Nice interview, great guy!
wow vladimir is very educated und er spricht fünf sprachen unter anderen sogar DEUTSCH
samsonov hat jahrelang in der ttbl gespielt :P
It's so good I wanted to like it second time.
Very authentically funny guy lmao. Sadly, players nowadays lack this amazing personality.
Even when not playing Table Tennis he is as zen like!
4:23 that adam's face made me rofl for 1 minute
Please do one with Waldner!
Великий!!! The Grate!!!
カッケー！！！さらに好きになった！
cool guy
DO JUN MIZUTANI!!
they've already done that
He's on the list and hopefully coming up relatively soon. He did do an "Off the Table" but we still have to do an AAPA. Stay tuned. 8>)
Cool! Wonder what's the reason for him to know Serbian (if that was not a joke)?
His wife is from Serbia
Traduzcan en castellano por favor
перевод есть?
Nice man, for a belarus
All these years, I never knew that he is funny.
vladi is awesome
2:27 that look of disgust
Samsonov or Armin van Buure
what first song
I think it's this song: TheFatRat - Time Lapse
+Johan Larsson thank you very much
5 languages, wow... I didn't know that he speaks German, but it makes sense since he played for Düsseldorf in the German league. And how many does Adam speak? 20? xD
I'm go to the future and you win against Lin gaoyuan!
Vlade Kralju
we would love to have you connected... Omg pun intended or what?
サムソノフ５ヵ国語も話せるとかすごいなーって思ってたら記者の方もすごかったw
Vladi got Jokes!
Wow he beat Ma Long before!
5 times.
Serbian aka Serbo-Croatian.
Is it just me or iz Adam really giving him the evil eye??watch as he stares at him after asking a question its not a freindly look/stare at times.What do u think?
Just a fun show - what a pity. It doesn´t do justice to this fascinating man to ask him largely banal questions.
5:45 CRINGE ALERT!!!
Vladimir Samsonov beatboxing? Wtf.
What a weird serve
*WHAT??? 5 Languages ONLY? Vladi, have you forgotten your FRENCH already? 😱😡😠*
Samsonov is nice and he was trying to be nice and funny but Adam Bobrow spoiled the interview.
He's an egocentric brat, thats all
Without Adam you wouldn't even have an interview pfff so easy to criticize
Pffff in that interview he almost looking down on Samsonov, just check his behavior...who the hell does he think he is....
Can you name a specific scene?I don't think he did.
His ironic laugh is a bit too much for example
さむらい笑
Ils sont assis sur une table !
хехехе,прича српски.хехехе
hahaha bukvalno nisam verovao
lik bre.nisam znao odakle mu srpski.mozda se druzio sa karakasevicem ili sta vec.
