Chris Mason challenged Phil Taylor to a car park punch-up after their bust-up at Purfleet.

He threw down the gauntlet to 'The Power' after being beaten 4-0 by the 13-times world champion in round three of the current PDC Championship at the Circus Tavern.

The pair traded insults after their showdown at the oche, with Taylor threatening to quit the sport after claiming Mason made filthy remarks to him.

Mason, 37, told The Sun: "If he wants to sort it out in the car park, I'll see him there because I'm a better man than him.

"I grew up hard, making bog chains. Taylor used to be a big fish in a small pond, now he thinks he is God. It seems to be one rule for him and one for the rest of us."

Thirteen-times world champion Taylor claimed Mason swore at him and fans during the third-round whitewash.

Mason had branded the Power a Bertie Big B******s in Thursday's Sun.

And he accused Taylor of being disrespectful when he tried to shake hands at the end.

Mason claimed: "I offered my hand and he gave me a wet lettuce leaf-like handshake. I told him don't f*****g mug me off, I'm not having that.
