Brazilian - Eder Jofre

[Barn]

Where do you rate Jofre Pound for Pound, I have him sitting at 17.

[NChristo]

I'm quite a Jofre fan and think highly of him, I don't usually number anyone in my top 10 but if I had to he'd be around 7-10.

[Barn]

Best Bantamweight ever no doubt.

[DarkTerror88]

Carlos Monzon Argentina?
Jimmy Wilde Britain?
Joe Walcott Barbados?
Ray Robinson USA?

Just my opinions though

Agree with all except Wilde but that is subjective, do you count Bob Fitzsimmons as a boxer from Britain or New Zealand ?, if NZ then it is Wilde but if not then it's Fitzsimmons, imo anyway.
