I don't know what it is, is it that he's bored and just wants to see his family? If so, yeah, definitely, but if it's a darts related issue, he'd be best off going to the AS

Why?
Because playing the way he is at min will most likely make it worse. I honestly think he would be better off practising at home sorting his darts out instead of playing something he dosen't like to start with.

Seeing a theme :)
Duzza choking in the semi-finals of PDC majors?
We will see.

He doesn't like practicing at home and the way he usually plays after any kind of a break indicates to me he is full of it when he says practice has been going great, i'm pretty sure he doesn't practice much at all at home and that is the problem. Autumn Series is probably exactly what he needs.

Depending on the results tomorrow night there could be a "tactical loss" from Durrant on the last night to keep MVG out of the playoffs.

Duzza seems like the kinda guy who'd really want to finish top and win no matter what tbf. Besides, MvG could still win both games 7 zip and get through anyway

Tyson used to be a bit overrated, but then the backlash kicked in, went a bit too far, and now he's underrated by many.

I have Ali as the greatest HW, then Louis, then Lennox, then Foreman, then Tyson.

In his prime, Tyson was a monster.
Boxing now you are talking.
All time toP 3 heavyweights in my opinion ( I’m basing this on who beats who prime)

1) Ali 1964-67 version
2) Lewis
3) Liston

Mike Tyson whilst brilliant for a short time is vastly overrated imo.
I adore Liston, but he wouldn't make my top 5.
That jab though. He was the most intimidating fighter ever in my opinion. He would have been world champion earlier if he had been given his title shot.
So intimidating he took a dive.

Also remember Liston did get up but there was so much confusion from Ali not going to a neutral corner when he was shouting at Liston.
Look at the reactions of Liston when he was hit. He was caught with a short right while lunging forward off balance.

There are some on here that will not give Duzza any credit whatsoever. That’s not a pop at you by the way Randall.

"I just don't think players want to beat me this week," joked Durrant, who is now ten-games unbeaten in the Premier League.

"What can I do? I take out my doubles when I get the chances."
