}}Johnny Miler (August 10, 1910 – June 17, 1976), born John Miletich in Hocking, Monroe County, Iowa, was a professional boxer who competed in the 1932 Summer Olympics in the light-heavyweight class for the United States.[1]

In late 1932 or early 1933, Miler defeated future heavyweight champion Joe Louis in an amateur bout.[2] Other notable fights included three professional bouts against "Slapsie" Maxie Rosenbloom that ended in two losses and a no decision,[3] and a four round exhibition bout against Max Baer in 1934.[4]

Miler quit professional boxing in 1938. He is the great-uncle of UFC Hall of Fame mixed martial artist Pat Miletich.[4]

Early life

Born John Miletich to Croatian immigrant parents in Hocking, Iowa, a vanished coal mining town just south of Albia, Miler farmed and worked the local coal mines. He supplemented his income by accepting the challenges of traveling carnival strongmen, defeating them in wrestling or boxing matches. He moved to Detroit in 1930.

Boxing

Joe Louis

Miler defeated Louis in three rounds in what was Louis' first organized boxing match, sending Louis to the mat seven times.[4]

1932 Summer Olympics

Despite evidence that Miler had boxed professionally,[2] he won the 1932 Olympic trials in San Francisco and represented the United States in Los Angeles in the light-heavyweight class. Miler lost to William Murphy of Ireland on points in the first match.

Professional boxing

Miler 'officially' debuted professionally as a light-heavyweight on January 12, 1933 against Leon Jasinski in Grand Rapids, Michigan, winning the bout on points. He went on to compile a 12 win (7 by knockout) - 12 loss - 3 draw record over the next 5 1/2 years.

After boxing

Miler eventually joined the Navy then returned to Albia, joining the police force. Miler died June 6, 1976 in Iowa City, Iowa.
