Aw c’mon Jim, you’ve got the same weight advantage as Fury had, yet he couldn’t put Usyk down :xmashehe:Quote:

His opponent was just as happy for him...:xmashehe:
That was brilliant. Great reaction from Luke Woodhouse too.
Cracking comeback to beat the walrus-tached Aussie.Quote:

I know he hasn't had a great year but looked ok in his first game.
Wattimena has made a European Champs final and got to the quarters of the Grand Slam. Wright has had a poor year and I don't think he's averaged more than mid 80s since the UK open early this year. On form Wattimena wins, but Wright does love the Ally Pally stage. Think he's coming to the end of his days though. His wife, Jo, hasn't been well, he's made his money and hasn't anything to prove any more.Quote:

He hasn't played like this for ages. Throwing really well.Quote:

Glad to hear that. I met both of them in an exhibition in Sophia Gardens a few years ago. He was a very quiet bloke, had a nice chat with her when buying a Snakebite wooly hat from her stall there.Quote:

Watching Welshman Robert Owen now. His throwing action looks quite odd. His darts seem to go into the board on a weird angle.
Phil Taylor's used to as well. I can't remember any darter before him whose arrows angled downwards. Justin Pipe took that to an even greater extreme.Quote:

I had a wee flutter on Owen when Evans threw one of his darts at the board in temper.Quote:

Evans appeared to throw the towel in with all to play for, a really weird exit from the competition, but then gracious in defeat.Quote:
