April 1960
Muhammed Ali (15) VS Colin Beatty (1)
Ali's first fight went as expected. While Beatty put up a fight in the first round he was clearly outclassed. Ali sent Beatty to the canvas twice in the second round and put Beatty out of his misery with 33 seconds left in the 3rd round.
Upsets:
Ray Patterson (4) vs Robert Smythe (1)
Patterson who is the younger brother of Floyd Patterson had lost his first fight to Takao Okudo of Japan in a 10 round unanimous decision. His second fight proved no better. Smythe took the fight the full 10 rounds and came away with a 10 round Split decision. Patterson has been disappointing so far but it is still early in his career.
Roberto Davila (4) Peru vs Vlad Glick (1) Moldova
Davila was 2-0 and had one both fights by a majority decision. His fight with Glick would not go so well. Davila who appeared to be cruising thru the first 3 rounds was disqualified in the 4th giving Glick the win.
Winnners:
Wilhelm Von Homburg of Germany won his third straight fight knocking out Artur Njos of Norway in the 4th round. None of Wilhelm's oponents have made it past the 4th round yet.
