Alexander G. Yagubkin (25 March 1961 in Donetsk, Ukrainian SSR – 7 August 2013) was an amateur boxer, who won a gold medal at the 1982 World Amateur Boxing Championships and was honoured as a Master of Sports of the USSR.
Yagubkin represented the USSR at the 1982 World Amateur Boxing Championships in Munich, West Germany. There he won the gold medal in the heavyweight division (–91 kg). In the final he defeated East Germany's Jürgen Fanghänel, after the referee stopped the contest in the third round.
Five years later, at the inaugural 1987 European Amateur Boxing Championships in Turin, Italy, this time Yagubkin competed at super heavyweight and won the silver medal title after losing to Ulli Kaden in the final.
Yagubkin died on 7 August 2013.
