Gamboa,Barthelemy,Dejan Zlaticanin,Antony Crolla,& Richard Commey would have beaten Omar Figueroa Jr at lightweight.

I think any of these guys could have taken Figueroa's 0 away because Figueroa has very poor defensive skills & all i seen him do is brawl & slug,i have yet seen any boxing skills from him.When he was a lightweight he fought very weak competition,i could see a few of these guys clearly out boxing are even stopping him.

I'm with ya on all of 'em except Commey. Commey is no more proven than Figueroa is. He's a big puncher, but seems like the same kinda poorly skilled brawler you describe Figueroa as to me.

Not sure Crolla beats him either, but I'd probably pick Crolla. Figueroa won't have Championship level success beyond 135 I don't think, but then again he might. Lots of guys just basically get titles handed to 'em these days.
