Humphries spoke afterwards and understandably he was over the moon after gaining what many would class as the best win of his career. "I'm absolutely over the moon to knock out the World Champion on a stage he's never lost on before," said Humphries. "When I went 2-0 down I said to myself 'if you want to be World Champion you've got to dig deep' and that's what I did, I didn't give up because you've got to fight back in those situations. "Two years ago I might've given up there but I believe in my own ability and I'm hugely proud of myself for that performance tonight. "I take a lot of inspiration from Rob and his win last year has given players like me the belief that I can win this, and if I keep showing resilience like this then I can go all the way." for more information about the
