Mail Sport says the blue-chip event, hosted by Olympic gold medallist Nicola Adams, will see some of the biggest names in British boxing and the celebrity world gather on 8 November in London.
It is the first time that all levels of British boxing, from the grassroots gym volunteers to the international superstars, will be recognised at one flagship ceremony, added the publisher.
“The British Boxing Awards will shine a light on the people and organisations contributing to the phenomenal growth of the sport,” said Adams.
“I am incredibly excited to be hosting the British Boxing Awards in November and urge boxing fans to get involved by nominating those they’d like to see win. It is going to be a special night.”
Adams became the first female gold medallist boxer in London in 2012 and retained her flyweight title in Rio in 2016. She held the WBO flyweight title in 2019 and retired undefeated after six fights.
The award categories sweep through multiple levels. At the top end, there will be the Men’s and Women’s Boxer of the Year.
And there are plenty more commendations up for grabs in the form of Grassroots Boxing Hero, Out of the Ring Award, Best Brand of the Year, Inspirational Role Model and Lifetime Achievement.
