Anderson Rojas

Anderson Rojas is an amateur boxer from Ecuador who has qualified for the 2012 Olympics as a light welterweight.

Anderson was a quarter-finalist and 5th-place finisher at middleweight at the 2012 American Boxing Olympic Qualification Tournament. Five spots were available for qualification at light welterweight and Anderson qualified over the other quarter-finalists since his loss was to the eventual winner Roniel Iglesias. Qualification being dependent on how the fighter a boxer lost to performed in later rounds was controversial and will not be used in future Olympics.

Anderson also won a gold medal at the South American Championships and a silver medal at the Panamerican Youth Championships.
