Erfan Bozorghi was a celebrated athlete and arm-wrestling champion from Fars Province, Iran. Known for his strength and sportsmanship, he held regional titles in both left- and right-handed arm wrestling. In early January 2026, during the nationwide protests in Marvdasht, Erfan was killed after being targeted by direct gunfire from security forces. He was one of many citizens who lost their lives during the crackdown on the "Lion and Sun" national movement. Following his death, Erfan has been memorialized as a "martyr for the homeland" and a "son of Iran." He is honored by the title "Javidnam," symbolizing an eternal memory for those who sacrificed their lives in the pursuit of freedom.

عرفان بزرگی، قهرمان مچ‌اندازی و ورزشکار شناخته‌شده اهل استان فارس بود. او که در مسابقات استانی در هر دو بخش دست راست و دست چپ به مقام قهرمانی دست یافته بود، به عنوان یکی از چهره‌های ورزشی محبوب در زادگاهش شناخته می‌شد. در جریان اعتراضات سراسری دی‌ماه ۱۴۰۴، عرفان در شهر مرودشت هدف شلیک مستقیم نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت و جان خود را از دست داد. او در زمره شهروندانی بود که در جریان جنبش ملی موسوم به «شیر و خورشید» جان‌فدای آرمان‌های خود شدند. از عرفان بزرگی با عناوینی همچون «جاویدنام»، «جان‌فدای میهن» و «فرزند عزیز ایران» یاد می‌شود. نام او به عنوان نمادی از شجاعت و فداکاری در مسیر آزادی در حافظه جمعی مردم ایران ثبت شده است.
