Troy Likely 10 Meet
High-Ranking Foes
After Stopping SaIa

Willie Troy's fifth round
knockout victory over Lee Sala
last night at Turner's Arena is
a nice one for the record book
and probably will earn the Wash
ington middleweight a fight or
two against some of the high
ranking 160-pounders.
The nationally televised bout.
witnessed by SIS in-perSon fans,
wasn't particularly exciting. The
two boys mostly just pecked
away at each other, but the vic
tory over Sala. who has some
thing of a reputation, does Troy
no harm.
The Donora PaO fighter who
outweighed Troy, 163 to 158, was
a slight favorite. Except in the
second round, when his long
range style was effective, Sala
didn't live up to his reputation.
Troy was a somewhat wild slug
ger at first, but as soon as he
started listening to his corner
and picking his spots he was in
charge.
AmberS Changes Tactics.
Lou AmberS, the former light
weight champion who was sec
onding Troy last night, wanted
his fighter to jab instead of
slugging uselessly against Sala's
coverup tactics. When Troy did
that he won the fight.
The payoff punch was a left
hook that landed neatly. The
Pennsylvania fighter just missed
beating Referee Harry Volkman's
count of 10, and wasn't in par
ticularly bad shape. The end
came at 2:09 of the fifth.
Troy seemed to hurt Sala with
a right cross in the first, and
Sala balanced that with furry
that worried Willie toward the
end of the second. Aside from
that, there wasn't much real
action.
14th Knockout Victory.
The victory was Troy's 21st
In % fights, and his 14th by
knockout.
In the supporting matches
Hank James stopped Don Oliver
in the third (middleweights) ,
Randy Brevard won over Kid
Collins in the third Cheavy-
weights). John Eubanks defeat
ed Ralph Brown in six rounds
(welterweights). and frankie
Bomba put away Charles Wilson
in three (Welters). In bout
after the main event, Paul Kos
topoulos, 148, stopped Happy
Jack, 156.

Rocky Surprises at Weigh-in;
Tops Rival by Quarter Pound

into the top ranks of the
division when he edged Layne
last February.
Roland Talking Big.
"I'm going to win," the chal-
lenger said. "I beat him before
and I know I can outlook him
and I can outsmart him. He
can be hit by a jab, a hook, a
right and practically any kind of
a punch. I may stop him or
even knock him out. Probably
stop him because he cuts easily
and his eyes close up.
"Sure I know he knocked me
down with right in the first
fight" Roland went on, but I
got up and was going after him
at the end. In a few more
rounds I would have stopped
him"
Marciano, who rarely makes
predictions, told several news
men at his camp a week ago that
he would win within seven
rounds" He now says he was
misunderstood. But there's no
doubt that the champ feels he
can do it that quickly.
Rocky has become a poised,
assured fighter since he met La
Starza last. He no longer re-
lies on his looping right. He
has learned to shorten up with
his right and throw it in COM
bination with crunching left
hooks. His finishing punches
against Layne, Joe Louis, Harry
(Kid) Mathews and Walcott
were something to behold.
Last Nine Wins by Knockout.
The right that polished off
Walcott in 2:25 in Chicago last
May Is followed a grazing left.
His last nine wins were over the
knockout route. His record
shows 80 kayoS and five decision
victories in A fights. LaStarza' s
record is 1913 with % knockouts.
Although he has developed
into one of the greatest one
punch finiSherS in heavyweight

the mandatory eight count
knockdown rule would be waived,
as is customary in all cham
pionship bouts. He also said
the rule calling for stopping a
fight after three knockdowns in
any round would be waived, as
done in title bouts.
With the Weather Bureau
forecasting fair and warmer
weather, Jim Norris. president
of the International Boxing
Club. stuck to his prediction
that the fight would gross about
100000. The IBC will collect a
minimum of 100000 from the
theater-cast, making possible
total of $500,000 the fighters
will share in.
More conservative guesserS
figured the fight would gross no
more than $3.50, 900.
Rocky Gets 421a Pet.
If the melon reaches $500, 900.
Rocky, in for 42l2 per cent. will
receive about $4,000. LaStarza,
who gets 171a per cent, will col
lect about $4,000. Roland's
previous highest purse was the
$4,000 he earned when he
dropped the controversial 10
rounder to Rocky in 1850.
That fight was rated an even
money affair in the betting. La
Starza had won all 81 of his
fights, while Rocky was un-
beaten in 25. Rocky's manager,
AL WE'LL, side-stepped a prom
iSed return bout and skilfully
guided his crude but dynamic
punching fighter to the heavy
weight title a year ago yester-
day.
LaStarza, meanwhile, fought
a bunch of nondescriptS for the
most part, and seemed out of the
picture completely when he lost
decisions to Dan Bucceroni and
Rocky Jones. He beat both in
return fights and catapulted back
