Nabor Castillo Pérez[a] (born 4 October 1990 in Pachuca, Hidalgo) is a judoka from Mexico.

After winning gold in Pan American Judo Championships he said that before championships he had hoped to win a medal but did not know what color it would be.[1] His primary intention when entering was to gain points to qualify for the 2012 Summer Olympics.[2] He did so, and reached the third round in London, beating Khom Ratanakmony before losing to Elio Verde.[3]

Castillo was the first Mexican judoka to win a medal at a World Judo Grand Prix event.[4]
