Commentators weren't even watching the same fight. Riley controlled the whole fight and nullified all of lawals strengths. Brilliant tactical display.
As much as people call it boring, seeing a big puncher nullified by some lateral movement and simple boxing was still entertaining. He made it pretty clear that he's a better boxer without question.

How on earth is the commentator saying Vidal didn't comprehensively outbox him? That's exactly what he did for nearly 10 rounds,.
im impressed with how viddal fought through a fractured rib in the 1st to win that easily is world class
* Lawal throws 1 jab * Commentators: “great jab from Lawal” * Viddal throws 12 jabs * Commentators: “Viddal not doing much”
One of these commentators wasn't even watching the fight. Viddal Riley absolutely outclassed Lawal here.
The fact Viddal barely broke out of 2nd gear is super impressive, he just raised his level to the level he needed, didn't look bothered once and showed a masterclass in frustrating your opponent

Or they are used to world champions - higher level fights. it's possible to be technical and exciting, but this wasn't. no significant punches or combinations
Albeit a cautious one, it was a great / interesting fight. Tactically sound from Viddal in defence of his title. Get the job done whilst showing to everyone what else he has in the locker - from previous fights. His footwork / movement, patience and more importantly his discipline is exceptional.
I’m not surprised viddal took it. He makes every fight look easy and it’s clear he’s doing what he needs to do in training. This one looked slightly more difficult but he still walked through it! I think him and chamberlain will make a good fight. Let’s see it!

Love Riley's style, in and out, giving Lawal no chance. When Lawal does spring in, Riley ups the speed and is able to counter so easily.

Amazing boxing , crazy performance actually. Unfortunately really boring wish he shot more power shots . This fight has no highlights

HERE COME THE CASUALS!! The classic "Viddal is is rubbish, Jake Paul would knock him out. All he did was run around the ring" Casuals that don't understand or appreciate the sport, who focus mostly on big name fights and have no appreciation for technical ability. It wasn't a spectacle fight but it wasn't boring either. Viddal displayed his skill, he has very good footwork, great head movement, he was judging his range well. He came in with the correct game plan on the night and executed it well. At times seemed a little bit jittery but he is still learning in the ring with every fight. He's now answered any questions about his fitness to be able to keep moving and go the distance Lawal struggled to throw any decent punches, stiff movement and did nothing to stop Viddal executing his game plan. Casuals need to learn to appreciate the sport more.

Great work by Vidal
Moral of the story, watch fights with the commentary off
Where are the highlights btw?
Riley boxed a magnificent fight, he was the smaller of the two but kept composure, kept Lawal away with the jab and pivoted well while still getting shots in on his way out. Probably wouldn't have been a great idea to stand still and trade with the bigger, Lawal as he was only looking for a big shot at the end of the day and 9 out of 10, you trade with a bigger dude and he catches you clean, it's night night.
People didn’t realise he fractured his rib in round 1 😂and Viddal still fought on 💪🏾
Viddal stated that his rib was fractured during round 1. Which means he was moving like that while having a fractured rib. Viddal out boxed Lawal heavily
Isaac talking big. Viddal walks past him with ease
Have any of these commentators actually watched a single boxing match? Or are they just blind.
Lawal didn't get a look in the whole fight. V played that beuatifully but I agree with his old man, he could have let off a hell of a lot more. Well done V!

He was moving to prevent his opponent setting his feet and preventing him from throwing power punches, which is what you have to do against someone who relies on power punches... It was the definition of "hit and don't get hit", the essence of boxing. Running is where they do everything they can to not get hit and forget about hitting their opponent because they're nearly always out of range.

From what I saw the amount of times he cut left then right then right and left constantly circling without throwing nothing , then a few combinations and jabs here and there that Lawal wasn’t phased by looked like running / bidding time to me 🤷🏾♂️

Irrelevant of the fracture to viddals rib, nobody would have guessed it with such a clinical display of boxing, the footwork was great for all 10 rounds but people forget it takes two to tango and lewal had nothing to offer viddal.
