LUKE HUMPHRIES BACKS LUKE LITTLER IN PIETRECZKO ROW BUT ALSO FEELS SORRY FOR THE YOUNG STAR

[@140pro]

A great player and ambassador to world darts. Gives his utmost respect to other players and never puts anyone down. Top man

[@gregprocter765]

Breaking the template

[@Partytimepete]

This young man is a credit to the sport of darts. Humble and superbly talented. Keep it up Luke.

[@darrenwarby32]

What a class act luke Humphries is .

[@drssexy2142]

If dull is what passes for class these days then you're spot on.

[@SuperYtc1]

It's easy to be a class act when you're a millionaire and financially secure. Luke's happiness has changed drastically since he won the World Championship. I'm happy for him.

[@g.s.1722]

@@drssexy2142depends on your definition of dull. Why is he any different to the likes of bunting, chizzy, smith or even littler in terms of persona? No one calls them dull

[@darrenwarby32]

@@drssexy2142 so what have "you" achieved compared to a WORLD CHAMPION ? It must be exciting .

[@drssexy2142]

Bunting is from Liverpool and so has a naturally magnetic sense of humour, Chizzy is the perennial nearly man who's simpleton persona is endearing, Smith always seems down on himself and his self-loathing connects with us, and Littler's wide-eyed innocence combined with his clear hatred of getting beat is a magnetic spectacle. Humphries sits alone on the throne of dullness.@@g.s.1722

[@JohnDoe-bw3tz]

Isn't it nice to have a thoughtful and humble (but confident) human being at the top of a professional sport for a change?

[@BILLYBOY12ize]

Luke is a Gent & a Winner in the most Addictive Watch in Sport....Couldn't Happen to a nicer bloke.

[@damianleah6744]

Who says he’s the worst world champion? What a stupid comment to make. He’s playing fantastic.

[@g.s.1722]

I don’t get the haters at all, his fast throwing and high averages are the most exciting of any player just now

[@Bladesman1207]

Nice to see someone whose feet are firmly on the ground.I am a great admirer of no nonsense folk who perform at high levels.This lad seems to have no ego problems and has got to the top.Would love to see him stay there.If not he’s achieved great things and that can never be taken away from him.Luke Humphries,class act.

[@martyn7988]

Luke Humphries is an absolute class act. Just seems a very humble guy

[@daveboyo920]

Well done Luke....much deserved win...great champ...👌👌

[@TheDaf95xf]

What a lovely Gent Luke Humphries is 🤩 Luke the Nuke will mature especially listening to Cool hands Luke 👍🏻

[@geminisundone]

Well done Luke. Smashing it mate.

[@WestCoastWilliam]

@geminisundone he’s not your mate…

[@jonathanvince8173]

I like Luke Humphries he is so right none of the real top players speak bad of Luke littler they are all fantastic with the young man.

[@louisbrown6742]

Brilliant player with a real power game. Such a top humble bloke, hope he keeps winning tournaments. Great player

[@fartimusmaximus8710]

The 2 lukes . Michael Smith and Aspinall. All awesome, the future for darts is in a good place

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

Michael smith 😂😂

[@jw6968]

Was very happy to see Humphries set that question straight, Littler never said 'he was the Cup final', he said others told him that players treat playing him like a cup final. Good on you, LH.

[@owenf9793]

Great guy. Humble.

[@longlost8424]

my favorite aspect of the top tier league activities is the mental toughness it takes to be consistent in the face of the competition..... knowing that everyone in the top 500 are capable of consistent 5 round game play (for a time), but doing it week in and week out takes a level of mental toughness (you HAVE to believe that you'll win the next match, regardless of the eventual outcome) that most throwers can't comprehend...... I played and toured for the better part of 25 years in america and abroad, yet I find the past 15 years (I retired in 2009) competition class fascinating...... great to see how far the level has progressed.......

[@greatpoochini1]

World champ and proper ambassador for the sport. Credit to Luke H.

[@BosomTester]

Class act humphries, littler is great for the sport and will win loads. The 2 of them are drawing people back to the game

[@waitz27]

Top man. Huge respect for Luke & I wish him all the best.

[@leelo4717]

Such a likeable bloke.

[@neilloughran506]

What a lovely respectful guy!

[@subdvr]

Solid outlook and a very mature interview, really good to hear his thoughts.

[@daviekid10]

what a role model this guy is

[@adeh503]

He has to back him, pietreczko is a complete bell end

[@westyuk_3746]

All my time on KZbin, I don’t think I have read a truer comment. 😂

[@joshweir7198]

Facts 🤣🤣

[@kevinprior3549]

Luke H is one of the very few likeable players in darts.

[@StevenWebster_]

Very few? There’s a tonne of likeable players.

[@watchtherunner21]

Time stamp for the Littler question please

[@Nabulsi77911]

8:30

[@clj.4874]

Very consistent player and the best around at the moment, class player simple as that.

[@mikenayler5281]

Luke is a fantastic champion, who is so consistent. Hope he gets the respect he deserves.

[@CyberSR]

Luke's backing up his words for Littler because he never shave his chest hair and stood his ground. Nobody should influence your style and play style. On the sidenote, Snakebite should also continue changing his dart setups, shirt and hair colour to boost his mental game despite how the world goes against him. I fully support his ideals against all odds.

[@kennywilkinson913]

what the fuck lol

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

You ok sir 😂😂

[@davidmartin1093]

Darts couldn't have a better World Champ and No.1 to represent them...👍

[@gm_28]

Humphries is my absolute favorite player!! What a cool guy! Hope he wins a lot more

[@Lc-is8vn]

Amazing champ credit to the game 🎯

[@ljcm1750]

What a class act. I agree too I think if it came from Littler he meant that the occasion becomes big because they’re playing him i.e the media coverage and major interest draw to the game because Littler is the new star of darts. Not an arrogance thing or anyone’s fault, there’s more talk on his matches because the media love him

[@georgebyrne4087]

No conclusion for this man class and style on and off the pitch.!!

[@summumesse1303]

An absolute gentleman and a fine ambassador for Darts. Tiochfaidh ar La Luke.

[@ereedy6156]

Great example of a world champ

[@MrSpoonage]

Luke Humphries is a class act not just at the Oche but away from it also. Have a feeling its going to be another big year for him. Good luck Cool hand

[@darrenbell8597]

top bloke, keep it up Luke.

[@kevinbailey3384]

Class comments from a class act

[@shaneabbott4240]

Class act - Class.

[@highjim7778]

total legend

[@DortmundWood]

Pietreczko apologised to Luke L. for his behaviour. He has realised his mistake and he said he also like unusual check outs.

[@Adam-zh4hm]

I didn't see that he apologised. Where did he do it?

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

I didn’t either

[@creativitycell]

Easily best player in World overall! And his game is certainly NOT boring! It's actually very engaging n laser like, I enjoy watching his game just as much as Littler's game. He doesn't waste energy on oche personality n expression, and let's his game be the Star.👍🙏

[@Adam-zh4hm]

Humphries 180s are my favourite. Robot like

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

He’s definitely not boring far from it he just gets on with it no leg rubbing drinking water after every dart standing there for 10 mins talking to himself thank you 😂

[@gregprocter765]

Never heard leg rubbing used as an insult

[@thegaffer9616]

Luke speaks beautifully about the game and his peers, he’s a true World No1 and World Champion, as opposed to a (now retired) 17? Champion of the world who absolutely loves himself!! Luke H deserves everything for what he’s overcome to get up on that stage and play 🏆🎯

[@aapddd]

Why all the questions about Luke Littler ? I mean, he is a young powerhouse but still a competitor to the other guys. Why bother them with Littler ?

[@joeracerable]

I always pull for Ricardo when he's playing, but didn't know he was such a sore loser when he loses. Hat's off to Luke for just brushing that aside and move onto the next match.

[@andrewwilliams4644]

Luke Humphries, proper gent.

[@SuperYtc1]

0:20 vid starts

[@dartchesser753]

From my point of view what he says about Littler can also be said about Pietreczko. Both are young players with unconventional manners, doing a lot for the sport. And as he said, they are still learning and getting experience on tv stages. We all remember when Gezzy announced to never play at Ally Pally again after losing to Clemens. Everyone feels bad after losing and at least Ricardo apologized.

[@XxXyzxX]

Can't even compare Littler to Pietreczko, also Pietreczko is old enough to be Littlers father lmao

[@Rob-hu2mh]

17 compared to 30 isn't really a comparison

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

He apologised? Bit too late pal he’s cooked

[@Timesend]

The best world champion darts has ever seen. What a bloke.

[@bots0nFire]

Much more sympatic then the Young Luke

[@tkshots]

i've got a green shirt luke,i'll give it to you,hit me up...up the celts!

[@billymulloy7279]

I played darts for only an hour my arm hurts😂

[@AlastairBarker]

WHY IS THIS A TOPIC? EVERYTIME HE HAS A MILKSHAKE WE DONT NEED TO KNOW FFS ITS OVERKILL.

[@UnboxRacing]

Take time to think😂 Yeah, mindful gambling.

[@BigTwat]

Humphries and Littler are putting a spotlight on the benefits of professionalism and respect towards other competitors. Darts is becoming a serious 'sport'. All personal opinion and not meant to spark any arguments.

[@bigdav47]

Whoever says he is the worst world champion are total idiots. Was the player playing the best leading up to Ally Pally and deserves to be world champion...as Luke Littler would have if he had won.

[@honestbarsteward]

Just cos be looks like he’s 30, but he’s just turned 17 yes old, he’s a kid. Who was the numpty, putting words in his mouth? Maate, don’t cause trouble 👎

[@elaineplatt8707]

He summoned up the three clowns who would try should do this should do that mardle mason Nicholson the three worst clowns ever to commentate

[@pcon1473]

Haha making it clear he won the big one😂

There is no row, pikachu is a wanker, end of story.

[@markneville3716]

TERRIBLE FOR DARTS BORING

[@bmac7885]

It's darts not dating, his personality means nothing in the sport and his play speaks for itself

[@johngreenhorn8853]

FFS one of the most popular players in the world is Van Barnaveld,now that's what I call boring.

[@AlanBrown-d8w]

@@johngreenhorn8853he’s not boring he’s intelligent and a brilliant player

[@johngreenhorn8853]

@user-ii4sk3zy6b Who Van Barnaveld ? great player but a wee bit boring,to me anyway.

[@g.s.1722]

Ok then tell me , what makes a player exciting? Dressing in stupid clothes with a Mohican or getting arsey with other players? To me it’s throwing smooth quick fire high averages and big finishes like Humphries …. Go and watch WWE or something

[@BuyOneGetOneFree]

If Littler can sharpen up his doubles then the two Luke’s will be mopping up the big tournaments for the next 5 years…!
