Meelis Loit (born 15 April 1971) is an Estonian fencer. He competed in the individual and team épée events at the 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics,[1] but received no medals.[2]
Loit's bout with Kovacs in the 2001 Team World Epee Championship helped instigate rules against passivity, because Loit refused to engage with his opponent.[3]
