Alejandra Jiménez Ayala (born 29 August 1987) is a Mexican professional boxer. She is a former two-weight world champion, having held the WBC heavyweight title from 2016 to 2018; the WBO super middleweight title from January to March 2020; and the WBC super middleweight title from January to February 2020 after being suspended for a failed drug test.

Jiménez took up boxing at the age of 23 in order to lose weight and went on to become a world champion less than four years later. Before turning pro Jiménez won ten amateur bouts, half of them coming against male boxers.[2] Jiménez is the former WBC female heavyweight champion and the second Mexican born boxer to hold a world heavyweight title, first being Martha Salazar who Jiménez won the title from.[3]
