PHILADELPHIA – Rising Philadelphia lightweight Damon Allen Jr., 13-0-1, 5 คอส, will be honored as “The One to Watch” for the Philly fight scene, at the 10th Annual Briscoe Awards, บน วันอาทิตย์, ตุลาคม 15, 2017.
Since his debut in 2013, Allen has been steadily rising in the lightweight division, and now finds himself on the brink of a major breakthrough. With Golden Boy as his promoter, and an impressive skillset in the ring, Allen is well-positioned to soon step into the spotlight.
For these reasons, Philly Boxing History, a non-profit organization dedicated to celebrating and documenting the Philadelphia fight scene, named Allen the “One to Watch” and will present him with a Briscoe Medal at their annual event this weekend.
“It’s an honor and makes me feel like my hard work is not going unnoticed,” Allen said of his Briscoe Award. “I truly believe I’m the ‘one to watch’, and the next big talent coming from the City of Brotherly Love.”
