Fuzzy Knight (9 May 1901 – 23 February 1976), was an American film actor. He appeared in over 180 films between 1929 and 1967, usually as a cowboy hero's sidekick. Knight was frequently confused with Al "Fuzzy" St. John, an acrobatic comedian from the silent era who looked similar and played almost identical comedic parts in the '30s.
