The Read
Style, strengths, and defining traits.
Montes looks like a patient featherweight right until the grappling exchange starts tilting his way, and then the fight changes fast. The boxing is tidy enough to get him into range, but the bigger problem for opponents has been the squeeze once he finds the neck or forces them to build back up in bad posture.
That arc is visible across the last few years of the record. The Ira Lukowsky knockout remains the lone blemish, but since then Montes rebuilt with four straight submission wins, took out Carlos Calderon on Contender Series and proved against Ricky Turcios that the choke game still translates once the opposition level rises.
