Two things come to mind: points need gaping and/or ACR not releasing at low rpm.
1st thing, try setting your points to .20 inches at maximum opening. The engine sounds like the spark is firing the mixture way before TDC. That may be what is stopping the piston in its tracks. Pull the plug wire the next and see if it turns over OK without stopping it. If it turns over OK, then it may be your Automatic Compression Release not opening the exhaust valve a little until the engine gets to about 650 rpm or so. This would mean your exhaust valve is set to close without the ACR being able to keep it open until engine speed gets to 650 rpm. When the engine reaches 650 rpm, the ACR cuts off and the valves close normally. It sounds OK when it runs.

I would try cleaning and resetting the carb maybe put a float kit in. I had a buddy with a 127 that was a pain to start and it helped to put a space heater pointing on Tue rearend for awhile to get the.fluid warmed up. Ended up finding out the headgasket was blown as well so after the carb rebuild/clean new headgasket and heat on the rear it fires up as good as my 123 now almost effortless

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
