Michael "Mike" Williams (born June 16, 1962) is an American former professional boxer.

Known as "Mercury," Williams turned pro in 1984 and was considered a rising prospect after winning his first 13 fights, including a win over James Tillis. In 1987 he stepped up and lost a split decision to former champion Tim Witherspoon. The following year he lost by TKO to Buster Douglas. In the 1990s he lost to other notable heavyweights Alex Garcia and Corrie Sanders, and retired in 2000 after a TKO loss to Lawrence Clay Bey, having won 22 and lost 6 with 14 KO.

Williams portrayed fictional heavyweight champion of the world Union Cane in Rocky V. In the movie, he was soundly defeated in 1 round by Tommy Gunn.
