John A. "Jack" Zivic (June 23, 1903 – May 22, 1973) was an American boxer who competed in the featherweight class in the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp. He was a serious contender for the world lightweight championship in 1924, but was defeated by reigning junior lightweight champion Jack Bernstein in an elimination tournament. He had solid skills despite scoring only 12 knockouts in 70 professional fights, and was known for his left hook.
