Gilbert Delé (born 1 January 1964) is a French former professional boxer who competed from 1986 to 1993. He held the WBA light-middleweight title in 1991 and challenged twice for the IBF light-middleweight title in 1992 and 1993. At regional level he held the European light-middleweight title from 1989 to 1990.

Career

Delé turned pro in 1986, and captured the vacant WBA light middleweight title in 1991 with a technical knockout over Carlos Elliott. He defended the belt once before losing it to Vinny Pazienza later that year.{{cite web|url=https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=19911002&slug=1308590|title=Pazienza Beats Dele To Collect Another Ring Title|publisher=The Seattle Times|access-date=2023-12-21}} He retired in 1993 after unsuccessfully challenging IBF light-middleweight title holder Gianfranco Rosi twice.{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1992-07-12-sp-4308-story.html|title=Rosi Keeps Title With a Decision|work=Los Angeles Times|date=12 July 1992 |access-date=2023-12-21}}
