Riddick would have chopped those Klingons down just as easy, WITHOUT guns.
Riddick would have had to BFR'd in order to take down that Klingon fighter jet thing. Khan just shot it down because he's strong enough to one-hand a fricken phaser bazooka.
Riddick is literally a black Jason Bourne on crack.
I stick by what I said before, in a purely h2h fight Riddick would get the upper hand despite Khan's strength advantage. Even if Khan had melee weapons on his person.
You gotta understand that an unarmed Riddick would have wiped the floor with Spock and Ahura.

Spock would beat Riddick's ass as well. One nerve pinch and he's out. Mercy captured his ass multiple times.

Just like Spock, Riddick isn't a human.
He's a Furyan, he has superhuman reaction times and senses, and he's fully in touch with his primal side just like Khan was engineered to be.
Whereas Khan just has super strength and is a savant general and weapons engineer - a Furyan's skills are far more h2h fight oriented. Vulcans and Rumulans are a joke compared to Furyans, they're scientifically inclined and stronger than humans, that's it.
Though I doubt the "blue-eyed devil" could ever catch the likes of Khan, but he only caught Riddick, as well as the Mercs and the Necromongers, because Riddick was out-numbered and doesn't use ranged weapons enough and was injured and shit.
Really the only ones who could touch Riddick weren't Mercs, it was the Necromongers.

Yes, all of these guys are superhuman but I don't see Riddick being able to deal with Spock either.
We see how capable Khan is hand to hand. He roundhouse one shots Klingons and decimated them with knives. We also see him hand to hand fight aboard the dreadnought and easily decimate those crew members.
We see Spock clearly had skill, superhuman strength, and superhuman athleticism.
Originally posted by Genesis-SoldierThe film Into Darkness bent over backwards portraying him as an amazing superhuman killing machine. You pretending he wasn't because you prefer Riddick isn't a legitimate argument.
khan isnt what i would call amazing, yes i agree he could beat micheal myersut beating riddick when he went back to his "wild" self in riddick. no
his fighter self in chronicles... no
Riddick needed saving at the end of Riddick despite his more base self coming back into the fold. Shame.
