HISTORY: Eder Jofre (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈɛdeʁ ˈʒofɾi]; 26 March 1936 – 2 October 2022) was a Brazilian professional boxer and architect[citation needed] who was both bantamweight and featherweight world champion. He is considered by many to be the greatest bantamweight boxer of all time.

In 2019, he was voted the 16th greatest boxer of all-time, which made him the third greatest living boxer (behind only Roberto Durán and Sugar Ray Leonard) by "The International Boxing Research Organization". In 2002, he was named the 19th greatest fighter of the past 80 years by The Ring magazine. In 1996, he was rated the 9th greatest boxer of the previous 50 years. He is ranked #85 on Ring Magazine's 100 Greatest Punchers Of All Time list.
In 1992, Jofre was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New York, and remains the only Brazilian thus honored.
