Viddal Riley fight time, start time, TV channel and stream for KSI coach’s fight

Riley continues his professional career tonight as he looks to take a step towards competing for titles in the cruiserweight division

Viddal Riley will look to take another step towards a title fight tonight when he returns to the ring for his sixth professional outing.

The cruiserweight is best known for coaching YouTube star KSI in his rematch with Logan Paul in 2019 but was himself an accomplished amateur. And having stepped away from the social media scene, he returned to the ring in February for the first time in two years.

The 24-year-old has yet to face a decent level of opposition, however, and that continues tonight when he takes on Jone Volau who has won just five of his 12 fights as a professional. There is also cruiserweight action in the main event as Richard Riakporhe takes on Fabio Turchi.

Here is everything you need to know about Riley’s fight…

Quotes corner

“In the next 12 months, I’d like to pick up a title. I don’t know what title, I’m not putting my finger on it, but I’d like to have something to put in my living room – or at least my dad’s living room, because I don’t really keep my trophies.

“But something as a professional; I had a lot as an amateur, time to say ‘as a pro I got this’. So, next 12 months, I’m going to achieve that. I know my full potential. I didn’t show it in the Shihepo fight, which is understandable – two years out, you’re not going to match your potential, but I’m active now and I’m ready.

“The reason I didn’t get Shihepo out of there was because I was focused on getting him out of there. The game is called boxing, I have to box. As long as I box, those things will happen.

I had a lot [of titles] as an amateur, time to say ‘as a pro I got this’. So, next 12 months, I’m going to achieve that. In those parts of the fight where I was choosing to box, I had more success. When I started thinking about the hill, it got further away.

“Whatever you chase, it means it’s running away from you, so I’m not trying to chase that. I’m going to enjoy it, it’s my first fight in London as a professional, I’m excited, it’s about putting on a show and normally if I put on a show I produce a knock-out.”
