Jordan Gill

Gill made his professional debut on 7 July 2012, scoring a four-round points decision (PTS) victory against Kristian Laight at the Sheffield Arena.[2]

After compiling a record of 21–0 (5 KOs), he challenged Commonwealth featherweight champion, Ryan Doyle, on 27 October 2018 at the Copper Box Arena in London. Gill dropped the champion to the canvas in the seventh round with body shots. Doyle was able to beat the referee's count of ten, only to be met with a barrage of punches, prompting referee Victor Laughlin to call a halt to the contest, awarding Gill a seventh-round technical knockout (TKO) victory to become the new Commonwealth champion.[3]

After Gill vacated his Commonwealth title in early 2019,[4] he faced Emmanuel Dominguez for the vacant WBA International featherweight title on 2 March 2019 at the East of England Arena in Peterborough. In an early night for Gill, he dropped his opponent twice in the third round in quick succession before forcing the referee to halt the contest after trapping Dominguez against the ropes while unloading a flurry of punches, awarding Gill the win via third-round TKO to capture the regional WBA title.[5] The first defence of his title came two months later against Mario Enrique Tinoco on 10 May at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham. Gill was dropped on three occasions; once in the third round, again in the fifth and once more in the seventh, all by punches to the body. Before the start of round eight, Dave Coldwell, Gill's head trainer, pulled the champion out of the contest to save his charge from further punishment. Tinoco was declared the winner via eighth round corner retirement (RTD). After the fight, Gill claimed his poor performance was due to illness, saying, "I'm not going to make excuses but I'm going to, I've been on the toilet all afternoon. I think I've got food poisoning, I was not going to pull out on the day, I didn't want to quit in the fight."[6]
