Brazil is notable for producing a lot of high level MMA and jiu-jitsu athletes, however, are there any notable Boxers to come out of Brazil?
Eder Jofre is an ATG. Check out his amazing career if you get the chance. Acelino Frietas and Adilson Rodriguez spring to mind. But yeah considering the enormous size of the population there, there hasn't been a ton of incredible boxers.
Robson Conceicao, Esquiva Falcao, Jonhatan Cardoso, Patrick Teixeira, Hebert Conceicao currently. In the past : George Arias, Yamaguchi Falcão, Éder Jofre, Fabio Maldonado.
My favorite one still is William Bezerra. Built a nice padded record of 40-0 with 39KO´s, only to retire at the age of 31. Never cashed out.

Thank you. I saw the fight where he won the belt which was a weird fight too against a Thai opponent who just kind of stood there took hits and taunted but bizarrely never thre much of his own I know many consider Aiken the worst title holder of all time
