FOR PROFESSIONAL SLAP FIGHTERS · P-1A · O-1A

GET VISA-READY.
TAKE YOUR SHOT.

We help professional slap fighters obtain U.S. work visas — P-1A as internationally recognized athletes, O-1A for the discipline's elite — to compete on American cards, including Power Slap events. The sport's biggest stage is built in the United States: a Las Vegas-anchored calendar of cards, global streaming reach, and a roster that pulls strikers from all over the world. If you're one of them, your U.S. fight calendar is exactly what a visa itinerary is made of. Send us your record, and we map the category that fits before you're booked on a card.

HOW IT WORKS FOR SLAP FIGHTERS

1

SUBMIT YOUR RECORD

Name, country, league record, combat-sport background, the card you're targeting. Two minutes. Your inquiry goes straight to our legal team, and you get a written recap by email.

2

WE MAP YOUR VISA

P-1A or O-1A — based on your record, not guesswork. The U.S. cards and tryouts on your calendar become the itinerary; a proper petitioner structure — a league contract or an agent-petitioner — is set up so the filing stands on solid ground.

3

STEP TO THE PODIUM

Petition filed and, when a card date is tight, premium processing gets USCIS to decide in weeks. Visa in hand — you enter, you compete, you collect your purse. Legally.

THE HONEST READ, BEFORE YOU SPEND A DOLLAR

Straight talk about a young sport: professional slap fighting is only a few years old, and that cuts both ways in a visa file. What works FOR you — a real U.S. league with commission-regulated cards, contracted athletes, televised and streamed events, documented records and an international roster: exactly the evidence language USCIS reads. What works AGAINST you — "internationally recognized" must be documented, not assumed, and a new sport means thinner archives: fewer rankings, less press, shorter track records. A fighter with a real league record, national combat-sport titles or international results usually has a viable P-1A case — and a documented background in another combat sport can carry real weight. The O-1A is a higher bar — sustained acclaim across multiple evidence categories — and in a sport this young it fits only the handful at the very top. If your record isn't there yet, we tell you that too — that's what the visa check is for.

Coming to a card or tryout on a visitor visa? B-1/B-2 rules around competing for prize money are narrow, technical and unforgiving — a denied entry at the airport can cost you your shot and poison future filings. If that's your current plan, tell us in the form and we'll give you the straight answer on where the line is.

WHY US

Proof, not promises — our practice in one paragraph.

COMBAT-SPORTS VISAS ARE THE PRACTICE

More than a decade of P-1A, O-1A and EB-1A petitions for world-class competitors — champions and internationally ranked professionals across boxing, MMA, bare-knuckle and beyond — with published casework on our main site.

PETITIONER STRUCTURE, SOLVED

A petition needs a U.S. petitioner. A league contract works when you have one — and our agent-petitioner structure (through Aventus Visa Agents) covers the fighter invited to a card or tryout without one.

HONEST CASE STRATEGY

We grade your record against the actual criteria before you commit. If P-1A fits now and O-1A needs more seasons of results, that is exactly what you'll hear — in writing.

START YOUR VISA CHECK

Free to submit. Our team reviews every inquiry personally and responds with next steps — usually within 1–2 business days. You'll get an instant email recap of what you sent.
