Ron Stander (born October 17, 1944) is a former professional boxer, who fought from 1969 to 1982. He challenged for the world heavyweight championship in 1972, losing to Joe Frazier by fifth round technical knockout. He scored a fifth round knockout victory over hard-punching Earnie Shavers in 1970, and a points decision win over contender Thad Spencer in 1971. An award-winning documentary entitled "The Bluffs Butcher," after his adopted hometown of Council Bluffs, IA, produced by journalism student Andrew Batt was released in 2004. The documentary told the story of Iowa's arguably best shot at a World Heavyweight Boxing Title and chronicled Stander's journey from virtual unknown to boxing's largest stage.
