15 Rounds Middleweight Bout
Either Griffith outbox Fullmer behind his jabs and landing quick combinations on the outside to take a decision or would Fullmer maul Griffith with clubbing blows on the body and head to take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Re: Emile Griffith vs. Gene Fullmer
Gene Fullmer would have been too strong for Emile Griffith before 1962. His upper body strength and conditioning would have wear down the smaller fighter.
Fullmer by decision in 15.
It's kind of odd. Fullmer was beaten by Dick Tiger twice. And Griffith beat Tiger twice.
Maybe Tiger was on decline and Griffith got stronger when he competed at 160 by 1966.
