    Mike Mazurki (born Mikhail Mazurski on December 25, 1907 in Tarnopol, Galicia, Austria-Hungary (now Ternopil, Ukraine); died December 9, 1990 in Glendale, California) was a Hungarian-born actor and professional wrestler who appeared in over 100 movies. His towering 6' 6" presence and intimidating face usually got the actor movie roles playing tough guys, thugs, strong men, and gangsters. He played a wrestler in Night and the City and a boxer in The Harder They Fall.

    He was co-founder and first president of the Cauliflower Alley Club, an association of professional wrestlers. A photograph of his cauliflower ear forms the logo of the organization.
