Smith vows to keep fighting after World final defeat: "Setbacks are there for the comebacks"

Michael Smith lost out in the final of the PDC World Darts Championship against Peter Wright and for 'Bully Boy', the disappointment is still there but he vows to fight.

Smith said that he will always be there fighting and that in reality, the setbacks are there for the comebacks.

“I am capable of winning anything I put my mind to as long as it my mind is on it and it doesn’t drift anywhere else. I will keep fighting and keep going until the next one," he said to Oche.

“What happened last year, when I got left out of the Premier League and I kept moaning about it but the moment I forgot about it I tried showing the PDC and everyone why they left me out. You have to fight for everything and I did.

“I won a couple of tournaments and in the last couple of months everything fell into place. Setbacks are there for the comebacks.

“I could have fretted years ago when I lost the Premier League final. I could have thought it was not meant to be and I lost another and another.

“I keep fighting, I keep making finals – you can’t lose in a final if you are not in a final. I am always there battling.”
