One of the biggest UK prospects is going back into the ring after 7 months of not boxing and training the YouTuber for his professional debut, Viddal Riley is going up against Cristiano Pedro in a 4-round bout at the State Farm Arena, Atlanta. This is a cruiserweight fight; therefore, he will need to go down to just under 200lbs. He will be hoping to do well in this fight since he hasn’t fought in 7 months, however he is still undefeated and is now being trained by some of the best trainers in the world.
Viddal is currently being trained by the Mayweather family, Jeff Mayweather, one of the best coaches in boxing history, trained Floyd Mayweather and Shannon Briggs before he decided to move to someone, then losing his world title to the man that Jeff trained. He has also signed with the Mayweather’s and has been given a chance to become a world champion one day, when he decides to take it. Riley has been noticed by the Mayweather’s and no has the chance to make history.
Cristiano Pedro was born on the 8th May 1989 in Luanda, Angola. He started his boxing career in 2012 when he went up against To Morgado, managed to win the bout via split decision, however the reign didn’t continue when he lost to Steve Collins Jr via KO! He has only fought 5 fights and won 2, lost 2 and drew 1, now he has a chance to beat Mayweather’s fighter in the ring!
