John DiSanto of the Briscoe Awards and Philly Boxing History.com Interview Part I

I recently interviewed John DiSanto of the Briscoe Awards and Philly Boxing History.com for the first segment of a two-part Bonus Round interview about the upcoming Briscoe Awards in Philadelphia, PA. In Part I, John and I discussed the background and history of the Briscoe Awards.

The Briscoe Awards is an annual award ceremony that honors the best of Philadelphia boxing from the previous year. "The Briscoe Awards are named in honor of legendary Philly middleweight Bennie Briscoe and the trophies given away – the Briscoe Statue and the Briscoe Medal – all bear the deceased icon’s likeness.  The event brings together the local boxing community, including the award winners, their families, past and present boxers, fight fans, other boxing people, and general sports fans."

The Briscoe Awards will be held on October 15, 2017 from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at XFINITY Live in Philadelphia.
