			'''From United Press International:'''

	"Willie Pastrano, who has fought his way to No. 3 ranking light ~~heavyweight~~ contender after an unfruitful excursion ~~as a heavyweight~~, had no trouble reversing an upset ~~Alonzo~~ Johnson scored over him in the same ring last July. Johnson, ~~ten~~ pounds heavier than Pastrano at 188, tried the same body-~~pounding~~ attack that worked for him 10 months ago, and succeeded to a small degree in the early going. Pastrano was much faster this ~~time~~ out and soon found he could score with left jabs and hooks over Johnson's hooks to the body. In the ~~8th~~ round he opened a small cut over Johnson's left eye.~~" -United Press International~~		Willie Pastrano figured he was standing in line for a shot at ancient [[Archie Moore]]'s light heavyweight title today after scoring a unanimous decision over heavier but slower Alonzo Johnson in a Derby eve 10-rounder. Pastrano and manager [[Angelo Dundee]], well aware that standing in line for Archie can be a long-term proposition, said they hoped to keep busy overseas in the meantime. The nimble New Orleans boxer, who has fought his way to No. 3 ranking light heavy contender after an unfruitful excursion among the heavyweights, had no trouble reversing an upset Johnson scored over him in the same ring last July. Johnson, 10 pounds heavier than Pastrano at 188, tried the same body-punching attack that worked for him 10 months ago, and succeeded in a small degree in the early going. Pastrano, veteran of 66 professional fights and now winner in 53 of them, was much faster this tune out and soon found he could score with left jabs and hooks over Johnson's hooks to the body. In the eighth round he opened a small cut over Johnson's left eye.
