Total: 5-3-2 Jordan (actual scores: 6-4, 7-3 and 7-1-2 all for Jordan)

This was a battle of two halves, with Jordan dominating the first half and Godih the second half. Jordan was very sharp with his jabs followed by a straight right, but seemed to take some time off instead of capitalizing on his dimensions by keeping Godih on the end of those combos. And invariably, he ended up on the inside mixing it with Godih. Godih, for his part, was no puncher - only 11 stoppages in his career - but he was a clubbing puncher. Moreover, if you took a break, he was just going to keep firing salvos at you and this is what got him back in the fight, on my card anyway. A good 10-rounder.

 

Haven’t seen this one but I like Don Jordan. I think it was against either Virgil Akins or Gaspar Ortega that I watched one of his fights and he was a real fighter’s fighter.

Sadly he died after being assaulted/mugged.
