Tyson Fury, Daniel Dubois, Anthony Joshua and more have been nominated for the top prize at the inaugural British Boxing Awards, with DAZN also recognised among the nods.

"The Gypsy King" leads a ten-man field in the leading category ahead of the first-ever awards ceremony, set to be hosted by Ricky Hatton and Nicola Adams next March in London.

Katie Taylor, Terri Harper and Chantelle Cameron lead the names up for Female Boxer of the Year, while Frank Bruno and Lennox Lewis are nominated for their community work.

Eddie Hearn, Frank Warren and His Excellency Turki Alalshikh will meanwhile contest for the Outstanding Contribution to the Sport of Boxing prize, among other big names.

Speaking on the nominations, Adams hailed the diversity of the names nominated as an "incredible shortlist" and said it would be honour those throughout the sport for their work.

"The British Boxing Awards will shine a light on the people and organisations contributing to the phenomenal growth of the sport." she said.

"Boxing champions, both in and out of the ring, will be recognised and commended for their work in the sport.”

DAZN is nominated twice at the British Boxing Awards, in the category of Boxing Broadcaster of the Year and Best Breakthrough Business.
