On 2 October 2010, Montes defeated Filipino Sylvester Lopez in a WBC Super Flyweight title eliminator bout. Montes knocked Lopez to the canvas in the first round. In the third round, Montes suffered a headbutt which caused a cut above his right eye and resulted in Lopez being deducted a point. The referee was ultimately forced to stop the bout in the fifth round due to the severity of the cut and Montes was awarded a unanimous technical decision.
