“2017 was a memorable year for our local boxing scene, and it will be great to bring everyone together to celebrate it,” sagde John DiSanto, grundlægger af Briscoe Awards. “Our event is really just a party – food, drinks, and a coming together of everyone who loves this sport. It’s always great to see the mix of people that come to the Briscoe Awards. The highlight however, is throwing the spotlight on the fighters who worked so hard to entertain all of us fans. It’s always a good day and a fun time.”
