BWAA 2020 Award Nominees

This was a strange and special year in boxing, considering the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions placed on the sport and throughout the world.

Boxing still went on. Fights took place, including some big ones, featuring great comebacks and amazing finishes.

The Boxing Writers Association of America, which has been in existence for 94 years and selects the best of the best in boxing every year, is looking forward to a huge 2021.

What we’re going to do is combine our awards ceremony for 2020 and 2021 together, which will make it the largest awards gala in the long history of the organization. Because of the truncated boxing year, we’re only going to present six awards for 2020.

We’ve already named Katie Taylor as our 2020 Female Fighter of the Year. So, below are the nominees for the five remaining categories. The ballots will be due Friday, January 22, 2021, and are for only due-paying full members. Only full member email addresses are registered in the system. If you are not a full BWAA member, your vote will be automatically cancelled and thrown into a spam folder.

Your $40 yearly dues for 2021 must be mailed in or executed via PAY PAL (Graham@bwaa.org) on or before Friday, January 22, 2021 as well. Again, only full members are eligible to vote. If there has been a change to your main email or home address, please inform us so we can update our records.

If sending dues by check, make them payable to: “Boxing Writers Association of America”
