    I've been trying to find as much footage possible for this kid, and he continues to impress me each time. I like his patience, and calm confidence. When he hits these guys they feel it down to their boots, and his knockout of Salgado is particularly devastating. Looks to put his punches together nicely, in the event that he continues to develop than I expect Montes to be making noise in the lower divisions in the next 3-4 years. For those who haven't heard of him, check him out.

    Fairly closely. I'm not relentless with it though, but my favorite fighters of all time are from there, and the Light Flyweight division, historically speaking, is the most interesting to me. This guy has bags of talent, and if he stays on course, will be a talking point.

    the lower weight tend to get ignored by the masses. wont be a big star unless he goes beyond feather.
