The men's bantamweight event was part of the boxing programme at the 1924 Summer Olympics. The weight class was the second-lightest contested, and allowed boxers of up to 118 pounds (53.5 kilograms). The competition was held from July 15, 1924, to July 20, 1924. 21 boxers from 15 nations competed.[1] In their round of 16 bout, Joseph Lazarus knocked out Oscar Andrén, but was disqualified for hitting Andrén in a clinch a few seconds before the knockout punch.[2] Results
