The nominees for the 13th World Mixed Martial Arts Awards were recently released. There were some rather egregious missteps in those nominations. For instance, Steven Marrocco, who wrote one of the most important MMA stories ever in “The cost of being ‘The King’” didn’t even warrant a nomination for “Journalist of the Year.” However, since the nominees are based on opinion, I can’t quibble all that much with most of their choices.
That being said, there is one nomination that isn’t at all grounded with facts. That nominee is Dana White, and the award is the “Fighting Spirit Of The Year” award.
