Manfred Wolke (born January 14, 1943 in Babelsberg, Brandenburg) is a former welterweight boxer. He was a member of the Armeesportsklub Vorwärts Frankfurt an der Oder.
Wolke, representing East Germany, was the Welterweight Olympic gold medalist at the 1968 Mexico City Olympic Games. Wolke defeated Joseph Bessala of Cameroon on a 4-1 decision in the final. In 1972 he was knocked out by Cuba's Emilio Correa and didn't win a medal.
After his boxing career ended, Wolke became a trainer, most notably working with 1990s Heavyweight contender Axel Schulz and Henry Maske, and most recently with Francesco Pianeta.
