Gordon (born April 18, 1959) is an American former professional boxer who held the WBC and Lineal cruiserweight titles from 1982 to 1983.
He faced undefeated heavyweight prospect Gerry Cooney in 1978 but lost via a fourth-round disqualification.
In 1981 he beat aging contender Yaqui Lopez for the North American Boxing Federation cruiserweight title.
The next year he won the Lineal and WBC cruiserweight titles with a technical knockout victory over Carlos De León.
[1] The champion refused to defend the belt against the number one contender David Pearce in his first defence in the United States, and could not defend his belt in Great Britain because of the BBBoC reluctance to recognise the Cruiserweight division in the UK.
