Taelen Thomas portrays Stanley Ketchel,
one of the three or four most famous Americans in the world from
1908 until 1910, when he was murdered under mysterious circumstances.
As the Middleweight Champion of the World, Ketchel, known as "The
Michigan Assassin", was a contrasting enigma of violence and gentle
sentimentality who lived a spectacular life during the ragtime era.
A dancer and singer as well as a fighter, he idolized Fredric Chopin
and Jesse James, was close friends with Jack London and Jack Johnson,
and knocked out 50 opponents before he was 24.
