Bert Schneider (boxer)

Bert Schneider (born July 1, 1897, in Cleveland, Ohio; died February 20, 1986, in London, England) was an American boxer who won a gold medal in the welterweight division at the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp, Belgium.

Schneider, representing the United States, defeated Alexander Ireland of Great Britain in the final bout to secure the gold. He reached the final after defeating Aage Steen of Norway in the semi-final. Other notable opponents defeated in the tournament include Joseph Thomas of South Africa.
