Well, he has a considerable strength and durability advantage (strong enough to throw a cargo container in the first film, and durable enough to only be temporarily stunned from a head-on collision with a plane in the second film, and his shell is outright bulletproof as well).
And he is probably faster too, based on showings like 1:56 here:

Thing is, in my own threads i dislike trying to build up one side or the other, as it comes off as me backing a particular character, as opposed to just trying to get something more than two word answers for what i believe are good fights, so...done and done!
Well, this isnt a hunt, though again, as no one’s giving Riddick much of anything here, i gotta point out, in his fights w. Alien monsters, it was really him who was being hunted, and he killed both monsters.
Here he takes out the bioraptor from the first movie.

Here, in the third movie he even rescues a puppy and kills the monster one handed.

And this is his fight w. The Lord Marshall in the sequel. While he loses, you cant say he didnt do extremely well against a legit super powered soul stealing armored warrior w. super speed reflexes.

Add to the above the question of, who are the toughest opponents Raph has fought one on one, and, well, i think this fight isnt a stomp in any way whatsoever.
The toughest opponents Raph fought were casually stomping all 4 turtles at once and easily flipping cars. Any turtle would have wrecked everyone Riddick fought.
In fact almost everyone not a goon the turtles fought were stronger than them. Splinter, Suit Shredder, Bebop/Rocksteady, Kraang. Riddick wouldnt have lasted 39 seconds against any of them.
Biased? I love Riddick but he struggled with human enemies at times like Diaz and Vaako. And his best feats pale in comparison as hea far more grounded than gigantic ninja turtles that flip through the city at night. And nothing he's fought or killed would be anywhere near as difficult for Raph as he can casually toss multi-ton cargo containers and use hinself as a super pwered battering ram. Bioraptor, the jellyfish monsters from Dark Fury. Lord Marshal. None of them would give Raph too much trouble. Plus hes 9 feet tall and has super agility and speed. He is not a good opponent for Riddick and no doubt his skills but Riddick isnt sneaking up on a ninja who's been training in stealth his entire life by a legit sninobi master.

Read my posts. As an avid Riddick fan I'm not biased at all. I can name every single notable feat he has and comoare them to Raphael's. It'll he an interesting match but Riddick ultimately can't fatally hurt Raph, and cant take more than one or 2 full force hits without being taken down. This is without Raph using his buzzsaw Sai because as a child he turned a massive piece of drift wood into a highly detailed sculpture in like 8 seconds.

At this point i’m just hoping for more exaggerated claims, so as to at least get some laughs if not actual back & forth between folks.
Those same aliens Riddick had to risk his life with careful planning and technique to fight and eventually kill?
Raphael could just pick them up and squeeze until they break or slam them one good time like Hulk did Loki. Bioraptor, Mud Demon, the creatures from Dark Fury. Doesnt matter. Its like Cap vs Loki. Cap made it fun to watch bit he was never going to win.
And its funny how Riddick's blades are higher In your opinion than Shredder who was throwing gigantic magnetic swords around and still didnt kill the turtles.
You dont seem to rralize how grounded Riddick is compared to guys who hold up radio towers and sewer tunnels or throw vehicle.
And there are the laughs. Thanks!
Just FYI, the reason i’m not even bothering w. you at this point is, if you’re coming at this from a viewpoint of, “Any turtle would have wrecked everyone Riddick fought”, “Riddick ultimately can't fatally hurt Raph”, and “drift wood”, then you arent even interested in a conversation.
So really, tongue in cheeking you is the best option for me, until one or both of us get bored.
Yeah Riddick has struggled with humans, but he also does stuff like this:
Still Raphael should win.
