Boxing at the 1966 British Empire and Commonwealth Games was the eighth appearance of the Boxing at the Commonwealth Games. The events were held in Kingston, Jamaica and featured contests in ten weight classes.
The boxing events were held at two locations, with the early rounds held at Sabina Park and the finals held at the National Stadium in Independence Park.
Ghana topped the boxing medal table again (having previously done so four years earlier) by virtue of winning three gold medals.
