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 to July 20, 1924. Twenty-one boxers from 15 nations competed.

In their round of 16 bout, Joseph Lazarus knocked out Oscar Andrén, but Lazarus was disqualified for hitting Andrén in a clinch a few seconds before the knockout punch.
