"Former heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson proved to his many fans again that he still has plenty of power in his fists. Patterson floored club-fighter Willie Johnson midway in the 3rd round of a scheduled 10-rounder at the Miami Beach Auditorium Monday night. Johnson, 24, was still lying on the canvas when a SRO crowd of 4,022 cheered the favored and confident Patterson as he retired to his dressing room." -United Press International
