    Interesting awards, but how did Shakur Stevenson not win Most Punchable Face?? He has a HOF, ATG punchable face. Rolly should certainly be on the honorable mentions list, but Shakur is the king.

      Nice write up.

      A bit unnecessary at the end though, no politics, unless you want to alienate most of the country.

      The people have spoken. Back to boxing.

      If you don't like the boxing mover and shaker Turki, well, he's putting together fights that would likely never have been made.

      If you want to complain about Saudi Arabia's human rights, we can talk about America and the UK and what they've done.

        Carl Froch has a punchable face also.

            In 2024, we had an undisputed HW title fight but Event of the Year goes to Paul vs Tyson? Get a life & some friends

            Also, Most Punchable Face should be split just like Fighter of the Year & the winners should be Mikaela Mayer and His Schmexcellency.

              Is this a joke?

              There was literally zero politics in the Raskie's write-up & the only mention of his Schmexcellency was during the The worst-excuse-for-extending-the-evening award, which was perfectly justified & also non-political ijs.

                More people watched Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson. It even crashed Netflix.

                    Good article. Sometimes some washing is required to get the sardonic humor that these times seem to require.
