Floyd Patterson, no?

Guys, I bought some negatives...again. These are boxing and pro wrestling (vintage). One of the groups is Jimmy Ellis. He was my target in the lot. One negative looks like him...BUUUUT looks a LOT like Floyd Patterson, too. It's labeled as Ellis but what do you think? The Frazier and Ali stuff in this group was awfully good, too!

    The TB vaccine mark on his shoulder is proof for me.
    Definitely Patterson.
    No vaccine for Ellis.
    I found an image of Ellis with his hair exactly like Patteron that created a shred of doubt, but armed with this information the board must conclude...Floyd Patterson Lol
