Very nice fight. I haven't seen Figueroa in a bad fight yet. Very exciting fighter with suspect defense (Figueroa) against another exciting fighter with suspect defense (Broner). Not sure his power transfers to 140, but props to Omar for wanting Matthysse and Broner!
while i don't think much of Broner i think even less of Omar, he has yet yo fight anyone with a pulse. He lost to Jerry Belmontes but got a gift and has been hurt by guys with no power. He has no defense either.
the reason he applies so much pressure and throws so many punches is cuz he knows he doesnt have to respect the power or lack of power his opponents have. He's a "champ" but is fighting d level fighters
His job is to beat anyone they put in front of him. He has done that. Besides Crawford, Bey, or Molina who else is there in that divison. Thats not his fault either. If anything you can give his promoters credit for low risk high rewards pay check
