Fernando Montiel's 118-pound WBO Crown on Line in Tourney

Fernando Montiel will defend his WBO bantamweight title against Z Gorres, and Eric Morel will take on Gerry Penalos on Feb. 13 at the Las Vegas Hilton, promoter Bob Arum told FanHouse on Friday.

"After that, the winners will fight the winners in June," Arum said of the clash of 118-pounders. "It's like a tournament."

Since losing a split decision to Jhonny Gonzalez in May of 2006, the 30-year-old Montiel (39-2-2, 29 knockouts) is 7-0-1 with four knockouts, including a split decision victory over Gorres in February 2007.
