    Two of these guys trained together. Who would have won if they fought? Personally I'd go with Fullmer by ko possibly after being knocked down himself. Thoughts?

    I would go with Fullmer as well. Don't know if I think Apostoli could deck him though. Fullmer has historically been very difficult to floor. I believe Eduardo Lausse, Gil Turner, and SRR were the only three to score knockdowns? correct? But yes, Apostoli gives him a tough scrap.
