Rodrigues was knocked out by Evander Holyfield in 1989 and then by George Foreman the following year. Both of those fights took place in Las Vegas.
Among the famous fighters who lost to Rodrigues was former cruiserweight world champion Johnny Nelson in 1995. Nelson is now best known for his role as a Sky Sports pundit.
In 2013, Rodrigues was diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
His death this week came after he had received 28 days of treatment for pneumonia and abdominal pain.
Following his passing, thousands of fans took to social media to share tributes.
One fan tweeted: ‘We say goodbye to a great icon of Brazilian sports, Adilson Rodrigues, known as Maguila. A fighter who, with his determination, took Brazilian boxing to international heights. Inside and outside the ring, Maguila was always an example of overcoming obstacles, facing challenges.’
