The reason I give Cody the edge in this match (and might only be 5.5 in his favor) is because Cody can keep up fairly well in the mid range/zoning game and Gouken can't deal with his YOLO nature once Cody is in.
Cody's projectiles are very quick in their recovery so he can match Gouken's fireball game. With ex-meter Cody has a free get-in thus negating Gouken's zoning game. Cody hits like a truck and can easily stun Gouken.
Gouken must rely primarily on footsies and normal use to keep Cody at bay. When Cody is applying up-close pressure, blocking tends to be the best option. Eat a few throws in hopes that Cody will push you away or take a chance with a YOLO bingo.
