Jimmy Wilde or Eder Jofre Who's Greater?

Barnburner · 04:23 PM

Who do you rank as the greater fighter and why?

I was making a Top 10 P4P I used to have Eder Jofre at 10 but, substituted him for Wilde today.

Close but I'd probably favor Jofre by a shade.

I tend to agree, and I would try to make room for both of them in an all time top 10.

SBleeder

Neither are top ten in my opinion... I have them both in my top fifteen, with Wilde slightly higher.

Jimmy Wilde was the greatest flyweight in boxing history

IronDanHamza

IMO Jimmy Wilde is the best Flyweight of all time and Eder Jofre is the best Bantamweight of all time. So its very close but I would say Jofre by a minimal margian.

BennyST

I think Jofre is a little better.

Jofre by a bit.

When was Jofre voted as the best bantamweight of all time?

Ruben Olivares was voted the best bantam of all time by the IBHOF who also voted Jimmy Wilde as the greatest Flyweight of all time... Those who voted Jofre don't have a clue of what they voted against, Wilde was a phenomenon whose achievements will never be equaled. he beat world class fighters who weighed as much as 70-80lbs heavier than he did and he took part in as many as 300 fights..he was the undisputed champion of the world and only father-time beat "The Mighty Atom"...Jofre's achievements pale in comparison and i am quite surprised that he could be considered greater when the reality is he should not be named in the same breath as Jimmy Wilde.

Thats just my opinion my friend. I have all the respect in the world for Jimmy Wilde as i said in my opinion he is the best Flyweight of all time, i also think thats its more clear that he is as opposed to my opinion of Jofre. Its just my opinion i would rank him slightly higher ask me the same question tommorow i may have a different answer.
