Foulmer was a horrible clincher. Gawd damn this fúkker, he loved to embrace men. Giardello could at least box.

Giardello's best opponent was Georgie Benton. SRR was washed up when he fought Giardello.

They both beat a lot of quality competition. Both were obviously great fighters. You could pretty much flip a coin on this one.

I’d put Billy Graham in there as one of his best opponents

Both got impressive resumes and beat lots of great boxers. I will pick Gene Fullmer over Joey Giardello because he was much more consistent.
