legendary attacking combo plus awesome defense, on par with top korean defense like jung/lyd. their rotation was extremely active and precise, and they worked the net very hard with many technical touches to earn the attack. not just the superlative quality of their attacks but the pace and pressure they brought was fierce and relentless. sometimes when you watch the sport from a few years ago it looks a little dated, but cai/fu of more than ten years ago still look like the future
When Cai Yun gets a winner with a jumpsmash and Fu Haifeng gets a winner with a netplay, you know you're done because they win the point from their "weakness." LOL Nvm, i think they are one of the greatest duo, just like Yin and Yang
Fu had the most powerful and wicked jump smash in the world, and Cai was one of the best net players. Put those together for that long during their primes, and you had a MONSTER MD pair -- one of the GREATEST of all time!
