MVP Expands Roster With Unbeaten Welterweight

MVP continues to make a splash in boxing by signing some of the best rising stars while hosting memorable events, such as their Most Valuable Prospects card.

MVP has today unveiled their latest signing with Avious “Tha Underdog” Griffin joining the roster. The Las Vegas-based fighter joins as an unbeaten fighter with a devastating 94% knockout rate and a ten-fight knockout streak.

He’s a relentless fighter with devastating fight-ending power, and should get plenty of opportunities under the tutelage of Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian. Since early 2024, Griffin has been trained by Brian “BoMac” McIntyre, who is renowned for his excellent work with Terence “Bud” Crawford. In his last fight, he stopped Jose Luis Sanchez in the eighth round to win the vacant WBC USA Welterweight title.

The Life of Avious Griffin

Griffin has endured setbacks that wouldn’t be out of place in a Hollywood film script. He lost his father due to a brain haemorrhage just weeks before his professional debut. Losing a parent is more than enough for anyone to deal with, but Griffin’s life was turned upside down once again the following year, when he was wrongfully convicted of murder, serving 11 months in prison before his long-overdue exoneration.

With this compelling life story, Griffin is excited for the next chapter of his life with MVP: “I’m thrilled to join Most Valuable Promotions, a team that truly values fighters and their stories,” said Griffin.

“Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian are building something special, giving athletes like me a platform to shine. My journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s made me who I am—a fighter in and out of the ring. With MVP behind me, I’m ready to chase world titles, while being a motivational, inspirational vessel of God, and show the world what Tha Underdog is all about.”

“Avious Griffin is an exceptional talent whose combination of elite power, mental toughness, and personal resilience positions him for long-term success in the sport,” said Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian.

“His compelling backstory and knockout ability make him one of the most exciting rising contenders in boxing, and we believe he has the potential to become a global star. We’re proud to welcome Avious to the MVP family and give him the platform he deserves to reach the top of the sport and inspire the world in the process.”
