The women's lightweight competition of the boxing events at the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, was held between the 20 and 25 of July at the Oshawa Sports Centre.

The defending champion is Kiria Tapia of Puerto Rico.

[1][2][3] Like all Pan American boxing events, the competition is a straight single-elimination tournament.

Both semifinal losers are awarded bronze medals, so no boxers compete again after their first loss.

AIBA officials are waiting to see how things go in the men's game before making a decision to take headgear off women fighters.
