Tough one for overseas.
Out of that list, Williams is a gimme. Cannot believe that Thompson isn't there or the fighters who won / defended the European title in 2004. Craig Docherty is another worthy of a mention.
Any news on the young boxer of the year, that is a tough call.
My Fight of the year is Williams vs Rutherford II. Was Walker vs Fearon this year? That feels like an age ago now. Where the F is Brodie vs Chi 1 that was surely after the Walker vs Fearon fight. Woods vs Johnson 1 and 2 were worthy of a mention also.

The Board invite only had the details I've reproduced. They have other awards for sure, but those three awards are the main three.
The Board year incorporates the whole of last season.

Yeah, if you like watching a guy who slaps with virtually every punch he throws.

I've heard MSG is the most likely arena, but nothing is confirmed as yet.
Are you related to Lee?

That's a bit general. What are you basing that on? Lennox Lewis and Hugh Grant movies?
