Jürgen Brähmer (born 5 October 1978) is a German professional boxer. He is the current WBA (Regular) and former WBO light heavyweight champion. He is also a former WBO Inter-Continental and WBC International super middleweight champion. As an amateur, he accumulated 95 wins in 100 fights.

Brähmer went undefeated in his first 27 professional fights, losing for the first time to fellow German Mario Veit. His second loss was against Hugo Hernan Garay. Brähmer won the WBO interim light heavyweight title by knocking out Aleksy Kuziemski on 22 August 2009. On 13 November 2009, Brähmer became the WBO world light heavyweight world champion after the title was vacated by Zsolt Erdei, who moved up to cruiserweight. Brähmer successfully defended the title on 19 December 2009, winning a unanimous decision over Dmitry Sukhotsky and then again in 2010 against Mariano Plotinsky.

A title defence against interim champion Nathan Cleverly was supposed to take place on 21 May 2011, but Brähmer withdrew from the bout the week of the fight citing an eye injury. Due to him withdrawing, the WBO stripped Brähmer of his title and awarded it to Cleverly.

After Beibut Shumenov was elevated to Super champion status by the WBA, Brahmer was given the chance to fight for the vacant regular WBA title. In December 2013, he defeated Marcus Oliveira in Germany to claim the title and since then has successfully defended it against Enzo Maccarinelli, Roberto Bolonti, Pawel Glazewski, Robin Krasniqi and Konni Konrad.
