Theodore "Tiger" Flowers (Camilla, 5 de agosto de 1895 - Nova Iorque, 16 de novembro de 1927) foi um pugilista americano, campeão mundial dos pesos-médios em 1926. Flowers foi o primeiro boxeador negro na história do boxe a conquistar o título mundial dos pesos-médios.Canhoto, Flowers era um boxeador rápido e bom de esquiva, que castigava os adversários com potentes combinações de golpes, mas que tinha como principal fraqueza o seu queixo de vidro, tendo sofrido dez nocautes entre suas quinze derrotas na carreira.Era um homem extremamente religioso, diácono de sua congregação, que sempre entrava nos ringues portando uma Bíblia e notabilizou-se por recitar uma passagem do Salmo 144 antes de cada uma de suas lutas.Flowers inciou sua carreira profissional no boxe em 1918, já com uma avançada idade de 23 anos de idade, vencendo suas primeiras 22 lutas antes de sofrer sua primeira derrota para Panama Joe Gans em 1921, em um nocaute em seis assaltos. Poucos meses após este embate, os dois tornaram a se enfrentar e, uma vez mais, Flowers terminou sendo nocauteado, dessa vez em apenas cinco rounds.Entre 1922 e 1924, em virtude da extrema discriminação racial vigente na época, Flowers lutou primordialmente contra oponentes negros como ele, tendo tanto levado a melhor contra Battling Gahee, Eddie Palmer, George Robinson e James "Tut" Jackson, quanto sofrido duras derrotas para Kid Norfolk, Lee Anderson, Sam Langford e Jamaica Kid.Em meados de 1924, em seu primeiro encontro contra o campeão mundial dos pesos-médios Harry Greb, Flowers fez um combate bastante equilibrado contra o campeão, que terminou sem um resultado oficial e que também dividiu a opinião dos jornais da época. Mais tarde, já próximo ao final de 1924, obteve uma expressiva vitória por nocaute no 3º assalto contra o ex-campeão mundial dos médios Johnny Wilson
