Has Success Spoiled
Ingemar Johansson?
GOTEBORG. Sweden iUP!
Has success spoiled Ingemar Jo
hansson? The world heavyweight king
confirmed Thursday night that he
will not travel to New York next
month to receive the Ring maga
rine's championship, belt at spe
cial ceremonies which are expect
ed to be nationally-televised In
the United States.
Nat Fleischer (editor of Ring)
wants to make publicity out of
the ceremony, and because of
'that I demanded $7,000 for my
appearances," Johansson said.
Fleischer reportedly was
shocked when h? learned that Jo--hanssjn
was demanding $7,000
personally to accent the ' belt,
which has an estimated value of
$700, but logo wont lower his fee
