Walter Crucce (born 1974-09-05 in Las Flores, Buenos Aires) is a retired male boxer from Argentina, who won the gold medal in the men's light-welterweight ( 63.5 kg) category at the 1995 Pan American Games in Mar del Plata. In the final he defeated Puerto Rico's Luis Deines Pérez. Crucce made his professional debut on 1995-07-08 defeating Sandro Ramon Sosa on knock-out. For the press and much of the general public, Crucce was considered in the 90's as the future of Argentine boxing. It was a great puncher and in his first 22 fights, ten were won in the first round. Over time his career was devaluing by weight problems. His last fight was on 2012/08/28, when he retired in the 6th round against Brazilian boxer Junior Jackson, for the WBO Latino title in the light heavyweight category.
