William Arthur Miske, soprannominato "The Sain Paul Thunderbolt" (Pittsburgh, 12 aprile 1894 – 1º gennaio 1924), è stato un pugile statunitense.Non ottenne mai un titolo mondiale, ma si batté con alcuni tra i più grandi pugili della propria epoca, spesso sconfiggendoli. Il suo valore non ebbe la possibilità di esprimersi a causa della malattia da cui fu colpito quando era poco più che ventenne e che lo condusse alla morte a soli 29 anni.Nel 2010 la International Boxing Hall of Fame lo ha incluso tra i più grandi pugili di tutti i tempi.La sua famiglia era di origini tedesche.Esordì come peso medio, i primi incontri registrati risalgono al 1913. Al suo record, tuttavia, bisogna aggiungere almeno altri 52 incontri "newspaper decision", i match senza verdetto ufficiale su cui, per legge, negli Stati Uniti fino alla fine degli Anni '10, potevano esprimersi solo i giornali.Fu antagonista degli hall of famers Tommy Gibbons, con cui combatté almeno 5 incontri sconfiggendolo in almeno una occasione, Mike O'Dowd, che venne sconfitto da Miske, Jack Dillon (5 incontri, di cui 4 vinti da Miske), Battling Levinsky (4 incontri), Harry Greb (3 incontri), Jack Dempsey (2 incontri), Kid Norfolk (2 incontri).
