Emile Alphonse Griffith (Saint Thomas, 3 febbraio 1938 – Hempstead, 23 luglio 2013) è stato un pugile statunitense, originario delle Isole Vergini.Campione mondiale nelle categorie dei pesi welter e medi, è stato il primo pugile originario dell'arcipelago caraibico a conquistare la corona di campione del mondo professionisti.In una carriera professionistica durata quasi vent'anni, dal 1958 al 1977, ha disputato complessivamente 24 match validi per i titoli mondiali in tre categorie di peso. La International Boxing Hall of Fame lo ha ammesso fra i più grandi pugili di ogni tempo. Nel 2002 Ring Magazine lo ha inserito al 33º posto in una propria classifica degli 80 migliori pugili degli ultimi 80 anni. Nel 2008 la medesima rivista lo ha collocato al 10º posto nella classifica dei migliori pesi welter della storia del pugilato e al 13º posto in quella dei pesi medi. Stabilitosi a New York vinse, da dilettante, i New York Golden Gloves del 1958, nella categoria dei pesi welter. Passò professionista nello stesso anno.Ad inizio carriera incrociò i guantoni due volte con il futuro campione mondiale inaugurale dei pesi medi junior, Denny Moyer, con una sconfitta (Portland 26 aprile 1960) e una vittoria, sempre ai punti (New York, 11 maggio 1960). Il 17 dicembre 1960, al Madison Square Garden di New York, sconfisse in dieci riprese l'imbattuto Luis Manuel Rodríguez con verdetto non unanime e fu poi designato a combattere per la cintura mondiale dei pesi welter.
