Reported prose from our newsroom. Striker

Alberto Montes puts a 1-0 UFC record on the line against debuting Tommy McMillen. The featherweight opened his promotional account with a submission win over Ricky Turcios in March, a finish that flagged him as a prospect worth tracking. One fight into his UFC run, Montes now draws a newcomer in McMillen, a matchup that lets him build on early momentum. His single Octagon appearance showed a finisher's instinct on the mat. A second win would move him to 2-0 and start to establish him in a deep featherweight division. Montes fights on the preliminary card in Oklahoma City, holding the experience edge this early in both men's promotional careers.
