Patterson Ingo Series Ends With Patterson Knockout
Floyd Patterson stopped Ingemar Johansson in the sixth round at Convention Hall to claim the series. Johansson was knocked down twice early and finished on the canvas after a left hook and rights. Patterson and Johansson had traded thrills in a 15 round bout with Johansson attempting a repeat upset before the champion’s decisive finish. The defeat clouds a fourth Patterson bout with possible opponents including Sonny Liston or Henry Cooper as the future title picture remains unsettled.
