John DiSanto of
Philly Boxing History.com and the
Briscoe Awards recently sat down with
Matt Ward to discuss the
11th Annual 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."
