Eder Jofre: O Primeiro Campeão Mundial de Boxe do Brasil é um olhar íntimo da vida e carreira espetaculares do melhor pugilista da América do Sul, ranqueado pela Organização Internacional de Pesquisas de Boxe como o maior peso-galo de todos os tempos. Durante os anos 1960s, Jofre permaneceu invicto em suas 50 primeiras lutas enquanto obtém reconhecimento global como campeão mundial imbatível dos pesos galos e o melhor boxeador do mundo independente de peso. Após perder seu título e aposentar-se por três anos, fez o que é considerado o melhor retorno nos anais da história do boxe, permanecendo invicto por 25 lutas e conquistando o cinturão mundial dos pesos pena. Por meio de extensa pesquisa, uso de fontes primárias e comunicação com a família Jofre, a história de Eder Jofre é contada como nunca antes nesta biografia de mais de 600 páginas, e pela primeira vez em língua inglesa. Jofre foi um garoto tímido de origem humilde, mas chegou ao topo de sua profissão por meio de trabalho duro, paixão e humildade. Se tornou um ícone brasileiro e membro da realeza do boxe antes de partir para uma bem sucedida carreira política. O livro contém informações de todos os 78 combates profissionais de Jofre, além de relatos abordando round a round, preparação para as lutas, treinamentos e coberturas posteriores aos embates, informações sobre a história da família Jofre-Zumbano, da vida pessoal de Jofre e mais de 500 fotografias raras.
