Ron StanderRon Stander (born 1947) is a boxing referee from Omaha, Nebraska, who was once a challenger for the world's Heavyweight crown as a boxer. Stander, who was ranked number 30 at the time among the world's Heavyweight challengers, was given a try at the title by world champion Joe Frazier, prompting his wife to say the now famous words You don't take a Volkswagen into the Indianapolis 500 unless you know a short-cut. Stander, who wasn't very amused with the commentary, did not necessarily embarrass himself against Frazier, but he lost by a knockout in the fifth round, requiring 32 stitches to cover his cuts after the fight. Years later, he retired with a record of 36 wins, 21 losses and 3 draws, 27 wins coming by knockout. Stander, Ron
