Bruce Curry (born March 29, 1956 in Marlin, Texas), is a former professional boxer who was world Jr. Welterweight champion from 1983 to 1984. He and his brother Donald were popular celebrities in Dallas during the early to middle 1980s.

During his career, Bruce Curry had to face some of the best known boxers of his time. He lost twice to Wilfred Benitez (both times on ten round points decisions), and once to Thomas Hearns, being knocked out in three rounds. Nonetheless, he served as an inspiration for his younger brother Donald, who began wanting to become a boxer by looking at Bruce's trophies, many of which Bruce had earned as an amateur boxer.

Due in part to the fact that Donald Curry was undefeated when he won the WBA's vacant world Welterweight title with a fifteen round unanimous decision over Jun Sok Hwang, (having beaten boxers like Marlon Starling along the way), Donald was more popular among boxing fans than Bruce for a period, making the covers of KO Magazine, Ring Magazine and other publications. Bruce Curry had a total of seven defeats by then.

Bruce Curry, nevertheless, became world champion- surprising some fans and critics along the way- by lifting the WBC's world Jr. Welterweight title from Leroy Haley with a twelve round unanimous decision in Las Vegas on May 18, 1983, the same night that his former conqueror Benitez defeated Tony Cerda Jr. by a ten round split decision. When Bruce Curry became world champion, the Curry's made boxing history, by becoming the first pair of brothers to be world champions at the same time.

Bruce Curry retained his title by a knockout in seven rounds over Hidekazu Akai in Japan, and, on October 19, with a split decision in a rematch with former world champion Haley, also in Las Vegas.

On January 29, 1984, however, he lost the title to Billy Costello, referee Richard Steele stopping the bout after Curry received 29 unanswered blows while standing against his own corner.

Some bizarre events followed the Curry-Costello bout almost immediately after it was over: the day after the fight, Curry flew to Las Vegas, where he usually held his training camp sessions. Then, two days after the fight, he allegedly shot his trainer and manager Jesse Reid three times with a firearm, missing with each shot. Curry was subsequently found incompetent to stand trial and he was sentenced to spend time at a mental hospital.

Curry returned briefly in 1986, winning one fight.

His final boxing record was 35 wins and 8 losses, with 17 knockouts.
