Br RAY ANDREWS United Press Correspondent Seattle, Wash. flJl Can an amateur fighter beat the heavy weight champion of the world? That's what Pete Rademacher is going to find out the night of Aug. 22 when he steps into the ring against title-holder Floyd Patterson. Let's get some opinions. On his way to winning the Olympic championship last year at Melbourne, Rademacher stopped the three opponents he faced. He got Dan Bekker of South Africa in three rounds, Josef Nemec of Czechoslovakia in two and Lev Moukhine of Russia in one. The UP was able to contact only two of those fighters. Not even the press department of the Soviet Sports committee in Moscow could locate Moukhine. European boxing circles sug gested he may have gone to Siberia shortly after his one round defeat. Don't Rat Pet The other two don't think much of Pete's chances. At Jo hannesburg, where he is a po liceman, Bekker predicted Rade macher won't last six rounds. "Rademacher is very strong," he recalled. "He packs a punch that can floor an opponent, but he does not have enough of a knockout punch for a pro. "Compared to Patterson I cer tainly am a 12th rate boxer, but Rademacher is not much better than I am. I just cannot see how he could beat Patterson. He won't survive six rounds." At the town of Budejovice, Czechoslovakia, where he is a truck driver, Nemec said of Rademacher: "He is an extreme ly hard puncher, but I consider him too slow. 'When I fouglit him I took advantage of my greater speed in the first round and managed to escape his blows," he said. Makes Mistake In the second round, how ever, I made the mistake of side-stepping instead of launch ing some counter-attacks. When I finally got exhausted and lost my speed as the result of tiring footwork, I was lost." The 28-year-old Rademacher is an amateur, but an experi enced one. He has been fighting for 10 years, says he won -78 to 79 bouts.' But his professional qualifications are nil. He has, in fact, seen only two pro fights. He saw Kid Matthews in Seattle in 1953 and an "Eddie somebody get clobbered 'in New York the same year. His chief sparring mate is Ne gro Clarence Hinnant, variously reported as the sixth and ninth ranking light heavyweight. Hin nant is high on Pete. "This will be the toughest fight Patterson ever had," Hin nant says. "There's a good pos sibility the champ will get MOVING? Save by Renting a BEEHIVE U - DRIVE Vans Stakes Also Avis RENT-A-CAR and Pickup Trucks whipped. Another member of the Radfr macher camp is Joe Gannon, for mer light heavyweight who gave Patterson a tough fight three years ago. Gannon predicts the boxing world is "in for the shock of its life." Predicts, Crow Eeaiing "A lot of boxing writers are going to have to eat the words they've been writing about this fight," Gannon says. Rademacher himself is con fident. He thinks the fight prob ably will go 15 rounds but that it depends on how Patterson fights. He sees nothing ridicu lous in an amateur fighting the champ. "I figure I've been trained like a pro, fought like a pro and I think like a pro," he says. "I figure I've improved tremen dously in just the past month." Boxing writers who have watched him work out agree that Rademacher can hit. But they claim he telegraphs his right and is uncertain of his footwork. He seems to wheeze after a few rounds, but that may be a natural condition as he breathes noisily even in repose, Most bookmakers have taken the fight off their books. When Jimmy Braddock won the heavy weight title from Max Baer, he was on the short end of 20-1 odds, the longest price at which a heavyweight challenger ever went into the ring. The gamblers don't give Rademacher that much chance.
