Thus will Liston make good on a promise - or was it a threat - he made months ago when he told Clay, You re next, loud mouth.

Clay has agreed to take 222 per cent. Patterson, who announced he will not retire despite two first Tound knockouts in his latest two ring appearances, admitted he's out of the title picture right now. Surprising ly he added that he gives Clay a chance to beat Sonny in September because of Clay's youth, speed, weight (about 210 pounds), and punch. Bob Nilon, president of In tercontinental Promo t i o n s, Inc., admitted today that Lis ton and Clay already have come to terms and that they will be in Philadelphia Fri day afternoon for a "news conference." Liston, weighing 215'2 pounds to Patterson's 194'2 had to take only one good punch - a left hook to the face early in the round Mon day night - during his may hem performance against Floyd. The lefthook knocked Sonny back onto his heels for a split second, then he was after the challenger and re quired only 2:10 to blast Pat terson's ambitions of winning the heavyweight crown a third time. Won Crown Twice Floyd, 28, already will go down in history as the only heavyweight to win the crown twice - he did it against Archie Moore and Ingemar Johansson. But Floyd's reputation was tarnished considerably Mon day night because at times he seemed somewhat fearful of the massive, solid-punching champion. And Floyd was booed by the fans when he left the ring. He could draw but little consolation from the fact that he had lasted four seconds longer Monday night than at Chicago on Sept. 25 last year when Sonny took him out with a single knockdown at 2:06 of the first round. Sonny barraged Patterson to the body and head early Monday night and dropped him to one knee with a right to the head. Floyd was up at "one" and took the manda tory eight count on his feet. Almost immediately the champion staggered Floyd with a left hook to the head and then barraged him at close quarters. Patterson tried to tie up Liston in a clinch but Sonny smashed him again and again in the left ribs with his right fist and broke up the clinch. Then he dropped Patterson with an other right to the head. Again Patterson was up al most immediately and took the eight count standing. But he wasn't standing long because Sonny, from his "rocking chair," unleashed a murderous barrage that sent Floyd reeling sideways. Then a left hook exploded in Floyd's face and he landed heavily on his haunches on the canvas. He was trying to LAWN MOWERS for RENT at A to Z Rental 1213 N.

Boasts New Record Las Vegas, the gambling metropolis, which staged its ninth title fight in three years, boasted today a new Nevada record gate of $286,180, which bettered the $270,775 drawn by Jack Johnson and James J. Jeffries at Reno on July 4, 1910. Officials of Sports Vision Inc., estimated that approxi mately 300,000 spectators had paid about $1,200,000 for closed circuit television of the fight at various cities in the United States and Canada. Promoter Al Bolan estimat ed that Liston and Patterson will receive about $300,000 each from the net proceeds of gate, television, radio, movies, etc., after exhibitors, the television company and the promoters are paid off. Liston is expected to make more than $1,000,000 for his end of September fight in Philadelphia, where promoter Nilon hopes for 80,000 fans and a $10,000,000 gate. Movies and other ancillaries will collect a gross $6,000,000. MEDF0BDfJWrRIBnNS SIPCDlKTrg!
