Raul Rojas (November 5, 1941 – May 20, 2012) was an American featherweight boxer.

On March 28, 1968, Rojas defeated Enrique Higgins to win the WBA Featherweight Title, which Vicente Saldivar had vacated after announcing his retirement.

[1] Rojas who was of Mexican descent grew up as a gangster, leading the group "Little Roy's Gang".

Two of his brothers were sent to San Quentin State Prison, while Rojas spent time at the California Division of Juvenile Justice.

He once said that "If it were not for boxing, I'd probably either be in San Quentin or would already have made the trip to the gas chamber."
