LAS VEGAS – MMA Fighting will have World MMA Awards 2010 winners and results live tonight from The Pearl at The Palms Casino Resort.
This is the third year for the awards program, which was created in 2008 by Fighters Only magazine. Nominees and eventual winners are determined by online fan voting in categories such as Fighter of the Year, Knockout of the Year and Breakthrough Fighter of the Year, as well as non-fight specific categories like Ring Girl of the Year and Most Memorable Ring Entrance.
Last year’s winners included UFC president Dana White as Leading Man of the Year, Georges St-Pierre for Fighter of the Year and Brock Lesnar for Breakthrough Fighter of the Year.
At the 2010 awards, MMA Fighting is nominated for Best Media Source, and MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani is up for MMA Journalist of the Year.
