Cap,
Kahn mentions the fact that he was known by both names, and then settles on "Steve Ketchel" as the name he repeats. This would be the same as noting that Yogi Berra started his minor league career being called Larry, and then writing a history of baseball in the 50s in which you refer several times to Larry Berra.
Six different boxers used the name Steve Ketchel[l] between 1910 and 1947, including a heavyweight who was knocked out by Joe Louis in January 1937. I wonder if Kahn just got confused.
