in shape,” said *Mark Deluca.* “You’ve got to be ready because they don’t
come in easy. He [Agaton] was very ready and game. Being patient and
picking my shots was the toughest part of this fight because I didn’t want
to get caught with anything. I’ll be back in the gym on Monday. I’m sure
they’ll have something planned for me and I’m ready to get back in the
ring.”

dreams, and I want my opportunity. When I fight with bigger names, I’ll
know what to do.” Damon Allen Jr. (15-0-1, 5 KOs) of Philadelphia, Pa. went
