    I'll take Zale to step into Fullmer and bang him with the cleaner, harder bodyshots to pound his way to a decision.

    Well this is close, the style matchuo is not bad for Zale, but i know that Fulmer has a man in front of him here also and for me is a stronger man slightly.

    I'll take Zale also to come good down the stretch

    Gene's chin wouldn't help him here. Tony would ignore his head, and concentrate almost exclusively on the body, possibly even wearing Fullmer down enough for a late stoppage.

    I also agree with Zale getting the best of Fullmer.
    Possable by late stoppage.

    ill just say what a fight

    i think Zale has the better skillset but Fullmer the better chin and maybe stronger but skills beat strength

    I would give it to The Man of Steel by late round stoppage.

    Zale would pound that body pound that body pound that body. Then upstairs and Gene has his sleep.
