The boxing competitions at the 2013 Mediterranean Games in Mersin took place between 21 June and 26 June at the Toroslar Sports Hall. Athletes competed in 10 weight categories. Even though women's boxing has been recently introduced to some multi-sports events, only men's boxing events were held.[1]

80 boxers from eighteen countries participated. All countries won at least one medal except Albania, Cyprus, Lebanon and Syria. Algeria dominated the competition by winning five gold and one bronze medal. Macedonia's Fatlum Zhuta secured first medal for his country at the Mediterranean Games after winning his quarterfinal match on Day 3.
