Colin McMillan (born 12 February 1966) is an English former professional boxer who competed from 1988 to 1997. He fought his way to the British featherweight title in 1991. After successfully defending his British title, he added the Commonwealth title in 1992 before beating Maurizio Stecca for the WBO featherweight title that same year. Known in fighting circles as Sweet C, McMillan lost his WBO belt on his first defence, when he was unable to continue against Rubén Darío Palacios due to a dislocated shoulder.{{cite web | url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/the-interview-colin-mcmillan-sweet-c-turns-deal-maker-1122464.html | title=The interview Colin McMillan: Sweet C turns deal maker|author=Hubbard, Alan | work=The Independent | date=26 September 1999 | accessdate=24 February 2012}}{{cite web |title=Colin McMillan Epitomised The Sweet Science {{!}} Boxing News |url=https://boxingnewsonline.net/colin-mcmillan-epitomised-the-sweet-science/ |website=boxingnewsonline.net |date=2 November 2024}}{{cite web |title=Former boxing World Champion Colin McMillan receives New Year honour |url=https://www.time1075.net/142704-2-colin-mcmillan-bem/ |website=Time 107.5 fm |date=29 December 2018}}
