Riddick did get hit by a blast from Vaako's gravity gun during the group fight, while Riddick was busy engaging someone else. Y'know, like how Uhura shot Khan while he was busy fighting Spock. But I guess different standards should apply to characters Quan likes and ones he doesn't.
And before Quan starts with the 8 phasers on stun bit, a phaser on stun does NOT have the same effect as a blast from a gravity gun. If Uhura had hit Khan with one of those, he would have been flung clear off the platform they were fighting on, sending him plummeting to the ground below. In which case it would have been the exact same result as Vaako blasting Riddick. So by Quan's own logic, Uhura with a gravity gun > Khan.
But anyway, all of this is irrelevant. There are no groups here. There is no Vaako here. There is no Spock and Uhura here. There are no gravity guns or phasers here. This is a one-on-one knife fight between Khan and Riddick. Khan literally has 7 seconds of onscreen knife fighting feats, which consists of 5 moves. Riddick has more impressive blade feats in the group fight with the Necromongers alone. And those aren't even his very best feats with a blade/knife.
So unless Quan stops with his Vaako ranting and actually addresses the relevant bits of this fight, i.e. the fact that Khan doesn't have any better onscreen knife fighting feats than Riddick has, I will just assume that he cannot, and therefore concedes that Riddick wins.

There were two groups fighting against the other. Riddick had someone intervene to try and help him but Vaako broke his back. Khan was fighting a one on one fight and despite Uhura showing up he wasn't defeated by eight of her blasts.
You are speculating. Quit making assumptions without any proof, sport.
Khan took out trained warriors with hand to hand combat and knives easily. He doesn't have to rely on knife fighting only as this is hand to hand as well. Based off of khan's portrayal and feats he wins over Riddick who gets beat up quite a bit in his own movies.
Not sure Riddick can win.Khan is stronger and more durable. However speed and skill are on Riddicks side. Honestly a close fight. Honestly will come down to where they fight at.
