    Apparently it's being rumoured that unbeaten Rick Godding (18. 0. 1. 3 KOS) is stepping in to replace Lee Purdy against Carson Jones on Saturday.:think

    Godding last fought on the Klitschko-Wach undercard where he got a draw in a fight that he easily won imo against former Kell Brook victim Rafal Jackiewicz

    Thoughts if it happens ?

    It obviously won't headline but it would give Jones a test at the very least.

    Don't know much about Godding. Is he any good? I'm glad Jones is still on the card, when Purdy pulled out I was absolutely guttered.

    i would definitely settle for this, a lot better alternative than some of the names being mentioned

    Gooding the guy who drew with Jackiewicz? If so, this fight is arguably better than the original. Purdy hasn't fought anyone as good as Jackiewicz, never mind winning or getting a draw.

    Decent tear up, but Carson wins convincingly imo.

    Probably. But Jackiewicz is no joke and Godding should have won the fight from what I've heard. I only saw the last two rounds.

    Not true I'm afraid but Rick would give a good account if it was true , would like a fight with Purdy .

    one of my brothers told me it was going about on twitter, I don't have a twitter account so can't really say, yet they don't have accounts on here so I passed it on lol.

    Turns out Godding isn't stepping in anyway.

    yeah that is a shame, saw the bits it showed on the klitch fight and i was surprised his name wasn't mentioned a bit more on here.

    p.s. you should sign up to twitter mate. i have, haven't made any tweets, only have 5 following me, but i use it 100% to follow boxers, no one else - no mates, footballers, high profile celebs, those that are 'good to follow' etc. you do learn a fair bit on there.
