Experts Debate Patterson Ellis Title Fight Outcome
Experts and fans largely call Floyd Patterson the real winner of the Saturday bout while Jimmy Ellis appeared as the loser at a Sunday news conference. Ellis wore dark glasses with seven stitches over his right eye after a bloody nose and swelling. Patterson knocked Ellis late in the 16th round, but observers questioned the decision, as Ellis was deemed winner by Harold Valan in the ring and booed when leaving. Ellis defends his title after beating Jerry Quarry in the elimination tournament last April. Patterson is seen by many states as champion. Frazier is recognized by five states.
