Most professional boxing organizations recognize 105 lbs. (or less) as the lightest weight class. This goes by different names, such as Minimumweight, Strawweight, and Mini Flyweight.

The Olympics have a different set of standards and weight classes. The lightest class in the Olympics is Light Flyweight (106 lbs or less).
