Has to be Broner.
Still a fine talent when he decides to move his hands, and in Mikey's case he was taking on a much bigger man and won convincingly.
Broner would be favored over any of the other names, even in P4P matchups.

It's close between Broner and Gamboa. Gamboa has fallen off significantly since the Crawford fight, but he was still in top form at that time.
I'd be intrigued to see Broner vs Indongo actually because we all may be selling Indongo short here, but probably not...and Crawford definitely discovered that the body is his achilles heel because Prograis took him out with body shots also.

Gamboa has never been the same fighter at lightweight that he was at feather.
While his skills have declined further since being stopped by Crawford, lightweight has always been a struggle for him.
Broner would have beaten Gamboa at 135.

I mean it ain't much to argue about really. You're right that Gamboa never really did much past 130 pounds.
