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

fast when he is making a left or
a right alone. 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.
