    I think Selby actually wins... close on points.
    Montiel has had his best days behind him, so Selby must be able to beat him.

    Selby will win either late rounds or a wide UD.

    He will just pick Montiel off coming in height,reach advantage and being a fighter on the way up against a smaller man who has seen better days.

    I think Selby should move up to 130.

    Unanimous points victory for Selby. I can't see Monteil causing any major problems.

    Zzzz.

    Wake me up when Selby mans up and faces Walters, Loma or Russell.

    He is going to milk that belt dry.

    I think Walters knocks him out, and Loma UDs him. Not sure about Russell.

    Probably summer 2016.
    Lee will have a big weight advantage against montiel and as a 1st defence its not too bad. Theres only 1 winner though selby cant fail to beat him.

    Yeah elland road big money spinner for sky. Id back selby and warrington young enough to come again at world level. Tho i do think he will give selby a tough night.

    Al Haymon must be paying well. I'm not sure anybody in the US will care about Selby, he is hardly an intriguing character and fighting on Devon Alexander's undercard is hardly going to gain you a big fan base.

    Hope the payday is worth alienating his British fans for.

    Ye mate thats what most think but josh will beat selby. Josh is just as skilled as selby and he has a lot better defense. Hes fitter than selby. Selby is bigger but with the ibf theres more chance of that coming back and biting u on the ass

    It is a fight that has appeal to the SKY/Matchroom schedule for sure.

    Selby is levels above Warrington,but it is a good domestic challenge.

    The crowd on one side only,Selby would have to silence them which I believe he would.
