Four of those prize winners each received a boxing glove autographed by all four fighters. The other first prize winner received a $100 VISA gift card.

One randomly selected responsible fan will be the grand prize winner of the RHIR sweepstakes. The prize will include two tickets to a major fight in 2017, hotel accommodations and airfare for two.

US DOT / NHTSA 2015 NATIONAL DATA:

• In 2015, 10,265 people were killed as a result of alcohol-related (BAC > 0.08) car crashes, an increase of 3.2% from the 9,943 fatalities in 2014.

• Many, if not most of those lives would have been saved if people did not drive when they were impaired by alcohol or if they used sober, designated drivers or if they simply wore their seat belts.

• Statistics and research clearly show that 21-34 year old males are the demographic most likely to be involved in an automobile crash, drive when impaired by alcohol, and fail to buckle up.
