Tommy Gilmour delighted with award
FIGHT boss Tommy Gilmour has been honoured by the Boxing Writers' Club with the Joe Bromley award for his services to the sport.
He follows in the footsteps of ring legends Ken Buchanan and Jim Watt and is the first non-boxer from Scotland to win the award.
Gilmour, who was presented with the trophy at the annual awards dinner at London's Savoy Hotel, said: "I'm really chuffed to have been honoured in this way by such a prestigious body.
"It means a lot to be the first non-boxer from Scotland to win the award."
Commonwealth Games gold medallist Josh Taylor, from Edinburgh, was named amateur boxer of the year.
