Viddal Riley Crowned New British Cruiserweight Champion

On April 26 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, UK, 27-year-old Viddal Riley (13-0, 7 KOs) faced off against 34-year-old Cheavon Clarke (10-2, 7 KOs) in an all-British showdown for the vacant British cruiserweight title (limit: 90.7 kg).

Riley emerged victorious, claiming the title via unanimous decision: 116-112, 117-111, and 115-113 on the judges' scorecards.

Clarke had come into the bout following a split decision loss to Leonardo Mosquera, while Riley entered the fight off the back of two wins in 2024 — one by decision and one by stoppage.
