Patterson Favored To Defend Title At Polo Grounds
Floyd Patterson, 22, favored 9-1 to stop challenger Tommy Jackson, 24, in a 5 round heavyweight title bout at the Polo Grounds. Patterson won the crown by defeating Archie Moore in 1955 and defended it with a split decision last June. Promoter Emil Lence projects a possible $350000 gross if weather cooperates, with a crowd near 25000 and a gate around $250000. Patterson earns 175000 plus 40 percent of gate and radio-TV money. Jackson 20 percent.
