Most Valuable Promotions shakes up women's boxing by signing three champions: Evelin Bermudez, Lourdes Juarez, and Irma Garcia. This strategic move aims to elevate the promotion's presence in the sport and create thrilling matchups for fans.
Bermudez, the WBO, IBF, and WBA junior flyweight champion, boasts a record of 22-1-1 with 8 KOs. She began her title reign in 2018 and has recently regained her momentum, winning five straight fights. "I have high expectations after joining the MVP family," says Bermudez. Juarez, with a record of 39-4 and 5 KOs, claimed the vacant WBC junior flyweight title in 2024 and has successfully defended it twice. Juarez is set for a title defense against Yokasta Valle on May 30, with the winner potentially facing Bermudez for a unified title.
Irma Garcia, holding the IBF junior bantamweight title since 2023, has defended her belt three times, including a recent stoppage win at MVPW-01. Co-founders Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul emphasize that these signings not only enhance MVP's roster but also solidify its status as a global leader in women's boxing. Fans can expect these fighters to make impactful debuts, starting with Juarez's championship bout on May 30, live on ESPN from El Paso.
