Terrell Called
Best Of Lot
In Tournament
Ernie Terrell is called “the best
of the lot” in the new eight-man
World’s Heavyweight Boxing
Championship tournament which
gets under way Saturday after
noon, August 5, in the Astrodome,
and the Jimmy Ellis-Leotis Mar
tin bout is termed “possibly the
most interesting and exciting
fight.”
These are the evaluations of
Sports Illustrated in its new
“size-up” of the scramble for
Cassius Clay’s title as champion.
Si’s expert. Tex Maule, calls the
tournament a good one, and terms
complaints against the tourney
by would-be competing promoters
as “sour grapes.”
Terrell is set to fight Thad
Spencer in one 12-rounder, then
Ellis and Martin make up the
second part of the twin bill. Win
ners then are to fight, according
to SI, (November 11 and Decem
ber 2 in the Astrodome against
victors of the Floyd Patterson-
Jerry Quarry and Karl Milden-
berger-Oscar Bonavena brawls.
All permanent cushioned up-
olstered seats in the Astrodome
will be just $5.00 while tempor
ary ringside seats will be $10 and
$25. Children 12 and under can
get the $5 seats for $2.50.
SI calls Terrell, “at 28 . . .
mature without having lost any-
sthing to age.”
