Fans ecstatic after Viddal Riley wins the fight

After Viddal Riley made his professional debut against Julio Manuel Gonzalez in 2018, he has won all 10 bouts, 6 of which ended with a knockout. Apart from his popularity as KSI’s trainer, Riley decided to build his own career further. He has now bagged the English Cruiserweight title, making him ‘legitimate’ in his words. Riley took the skilled and fast approach that made him stand tall at the end of the fight, in contrast to the passive back foot that Quarless incorporated. He aims to own the Lonsdale belt next, which is a prestigious title that will add to the legacy that he is creating.

“Dominated every round what a masterclass by Viddal!!!” commented one fan, getting inspired by the work Riley showed in the ring.


“THERES A NEW KING” said another.

“One sided beat down,” responded another fan calling the fight one-sided.


” Tommy furry is fighting YouTubers, while Viddal is fighting undefeated boxing prospects, and now won his first English title. Don’t compare the two” noted another, referring to the ongoing feud between Tommy Fury and Riley.


“He would destroy Tommy Fury,” added another fan.


Another fan was not impressed by the championship belt and made sure to point that out. “Congrats to Viddal but god d**n whats up with the small a*s championship looks like a belt every black son got whipped by”

Riley is on his climb up to becoming an undefeated legend. However, Tommy Fury thinks he is too small to be taken on in the ring. This is where their feud started. Riley took it forward, calling Fury a crossover boxer who cannot defeat Anees Taj. Riley says he has adopted the traditional way of doing things and wants to become a traditional pro boxer. It will be interesting to follow how Riley works to prove Tommy Fury wrong. Do you think he will get in the ring with Fury?
