Patterson Wins Rematch Hopes In Big New York Fight
Floyd Patterson remains a heavy favorite as he trains in Greenwood Lake for the 15 round title bout with Tommy Jackson at the Polo Grounds. Cus D’Amato says Patterson is a better fighter than the night he knocked out Archie Moore and is ready for 35 rounds if needed. Jackson vows a beating but may not seek a September rematch. Promoter Emil Lence reports advance ticket sales near $125,000 with a potential gate over $300,000 and about 25,000 in attendance. Patterson stands to earn a $175,000 guarantee plus share of net while Jackson gets 20 percent as the underdog. Patterson expected to weigh about 184 pounds, Jackson around 194. Also noted: league leaders and player moves include Pizarro recall by Milwaukee and other Baseball notes.
