Alejandro Sanabria Jr. (born 19 February 1987)[2] was a Mexican professional boxer who competed from 2004 to 2013. He is a former WBC Continental Americas super featherweight and WBC Silver lightweight champion.[3][4]

Sanabria began his professional career in 2004. He mainly campaigned in the super featherweight and lightweight divisions.[1]

A rising prospect, Sanabria claimed the WBC FECARBOX super featherweight title in 2008 and added the NABF super featherweight title the following year.[5][6] In 2011, he earned a notable victory over Olympic silver medalist Rocky Juarez to capture the vacant WBC Continental Americas super featherweight title,[3] and later that year secured the vacant WBC Silver lightweight title.[7][8] His final professional appearance came on 15 June 2013, when he challenged future five-division world champion and three-division undisputed champion Terence Crawford for the vacant NABO lightweight title,[9] losing by sixth-round technical knockout.[10]
