Tommy Fury’s name has been soaring high ever since he managed to defeat Jake Paul via a split decision. Fury now has a lot of choices for his next opponent. There are many who would like to propel themselves up using the young Fury’s fame. He has even managed to receive a place in the WBC Cruiserweight division. Fury now stands at 39th place, one rank above Viddal Riley. It is safe to say that this has definitely crushed Jake Paul’s dream, as Tommy Fury managed to break through the rankings. Riley recently posted a video on his youtube channel, where he shared his thoughts about the situation.

Riley in his YouTube video, claimed that it only makes sense for Tommy Fury to fight him next. Riley said that since both Fury and he are world champion aspirants and are close in rankings, the two should dish it out in the ring. “It’d be a massive fight. The people will turn up,” he said.

He also compared other fighters in the division and claimed that he is possibly the next biggest fight for Tommy ‘TNT’. “If that’s your aspirations, why look anywhere else? Most people in those rankings are not going to bring anything on the table, other than a hard fight and a potential L for Tommy.”

While some fans are excited about the prospect of the two fighters going head-to-head, others have criticized Riley for not being a big enough draw to entice Fury into a fight. Nevertheless, Viddal Riley is also claimed to be the first YouTuber to be ranked by WBC.
