Johann Wilhelm "Rukeli" Trollmann (27 December 1907 – 9 April 1944) was a German Sinti boxer in the twilight years of the Weimar Republic. Although largely assimilated and of partial German descent, Trollmann was barred from professional boxing by the Nazi government, forcibly sterilised, and eventually murdered in a concentration camp.
