Real Women Award Nominees





It's that time of year again. Time for the 4th annual Real Women Awards. The nominees are put together by a large group of female fighters, competitors and media members. To vote, you simply click who you are voting for. Voting will last two weeks, so will end on January 20th at midnight. In most cases there are five nominees, but in a few awards, the way the nomination process is done, there are more than five nominees. A couple categories are done via email. Those awards are competitors/fighters favorite and voters favorite as well as our biggest award, Woman of the Year, which is open to fighters and competitors. To vote for competitors or fighters favorite you must include a show you competed in or name a fight you had so it can be verified that you have competed or fought. Winners will be announced on our January 21st Promoting Real Women Radio show. The awards are based on what you entered 2013 as. So you could have entered 2013 as an amateur fighter or competitor and turned pro during the year, but for the awards you are in the amateur categories. The only except is the 2014 Is Their Year category. For that one, it is what you ended 2013 as.

Woman of the Year and Fighters/Competitors Favorites Awards. (Submit votes to elway78@netzero.com)
To vote, email what division/divisions you are voting for and whether you are doing so as a voter or a competitor. You can vote for favorite pro and/or amateur. Same goes for MMA. Send whether you are voting as a voter or a fighter and vote for amateur and/or pro fighter.
