Carlos Góngora Mercado (born April 25, 1989) is an Ecuadorian professional boxer who held the IBO super middleweight title between 2020 and December 2021.

As an amateur, he won a bronze medal at the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio in the men's middleweight division.

At the 2007 Pan American Games the then 18-year-old from El Coca easily beat Blanco 20:6 in a rematch before losing to the eventual winner Emilio Correa from Cuba in the semis 13:21.

At the 2007 World Championships he beat Ivano del Monte but ran into superstar and eventual winner Matvey Korobov and lost when the referee stopped the contest.

At the 2008 Olympics he won his first matches against German Konstantin Buga and Greek Georgios Gazis 12:1 but a surprise quarter final loss to Indian Vijender Singh kept him from winning a medal.
