FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1959 Ingemar Johansson Warns Heavy King NEW vnmfSnii.i. .u.n ger Ingemar Johansson said to day that after watching heavy weight champion Floyd Patter son's performance against Brian London last week he is not wor ried about his own chances of tak ; ing the crown back to Sweden in t June, ; He also issued a bold warning: . All I have to say to the Cham . pion Floyd Patterson is one thing, watch out!" ; Johansson, who will fight Pat- terson in New York on June 25, Ms relying on several factors to .win the title. His most important asset, he says, is that he's a '"thinking boxer." . Johansson admitted that Patter fion uses his head in the ring too but added that "there are times .when he stops thinking, he gets .overanxious and doesn't look close . enough." : Johansson noted that during the London fight in Indianapolis Pat terson was "very fast when he 4 bits his combinations, but not so Tow, Lift Men 'Schedule Meet MOUNT SHASTA A meeting of tki tow and lift operators of North ern California and Nevada will be held at Mt.

Then sometimes he looks at the floor instead and his punches are confused and 'wild." Johansson said that Patterson is a different 'fighter now than he was when the Swedish slugger first saw him in the 1952 Olym pics. Then he was a stand-up fighter just the kind people like to see-"-bang, bang, bang." The challenger observed that there is something about Patter son's ring style now that "is not so good." " Sometimes when he gets a lit tle hit, he gets angry and then he pulls back and drops his hands as if to say I am going to kill that man. That is not so good." Johansson said that he considers the capabilities of his right to be almost mystic. "There is something strangeJ about my right hand, something very bard to explain, it is almost as if it were not part of me at all. I never know when it is com ine. The arm works by itself. It is faster than the eye and I can not even see it. Without my telling it to, the right goes and when it hits, there is this good feeling all down my arm and through my bodv. It is a wondertui teeung. Something iust right has been rinne." He said that the only thing he would be thinking of before go ing into the ring against Patter son is "how I will be hitting with my right hand: just right. Johansson cited other reasons whv he is confident of beating the champion. He said mat ne is last- cr than Patterson and tnat speea has always been his best tactic, He believes he can hit harder than Patterson and said his rec ord of 13 knockouts in 21 fights shows "my hit is not weak. He also considers himself to be in better shape than Patterson and said the reason for his never be ing hurt in the ring is because of his condition. "When we are in the ring togeth or." said Johansson, "if it hap pens like it happens in my mind all I have to say to the Cham pion Floyd Patterson is one thing, watch out!" He reported that his wife and trainer expect him to finish the fight in the first round. LAND OR SEA! . . .
