Milton Javier Flores Miranda (*5 December 1974 - † 19 January 2003) was a Honduran football player.

Nicknamed "el Chocolate", the goalkeeper played for Real C.D. España. He was killed by automatic weapons fire as he was having a sexual act in his parked car in the red light district of San Pedro Sula. After the shooting, he tried to drive himself to a hospital but drove into a tree where he died. After his death, a football stadium was named after him[citation needed].

He also played for the Honduras national football team between 1996 and 2001.
