Patterson Demolished In First Round;
Liston To Take On Cassius Sept. 30
By JACK CUDDY
UPI Sports Writer
Las Vegas, Nev.-tUPD-With
Floyd Patterson now demol
ished as a challenger, heavy
weight champion Sonny Lis
ton turned his attention to
day to zipping the lip of
young Cassius Clay in a $7
million title fight at Phila
delphia's Municipal Stadium,
Sept. 30.
Big Sonny, whose ham-like
fists floored ex-champion Pat
terson three times for a
knockout at 2:10 of the first
round' Monday night, will for
mally sign at Philadelphia on
Friday for his second defense
against cocky young Clay of
Kentucky, it was learned au
thoritatively today.
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.

28th Straight Win
Sonny, who registered his
28th straight victory and 23rd
knockout before a sellout
7,818 at the Las Vegas Con
vention Center, will receive
40 per cent of net receipts
from the Philadelphia fight.
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

It was Patterson's fourth
defeat and third knockout in

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.
