Apparently Monty was robbed, I assume being the away fighter.

Monty is really a welter / light middle

Yeah, it's the oldest matchmaking trick in the book: bring a decent fighter in from a lower division. The fight is competitive for a few rounds, then the naturally heavier man comes through on strength rather than skill.

Monty is probaly the like Lolengo Mock, he more of less has to knock out or get a knock down to win.

In fairness to Warren, he learned well from the past masters of the art: Mickey Duff and Terry Lawless.
