    Hamed didn't fight Robinson in 97 he fought him in 95, those rating were collated after Robinson's loss to Billy Hardy.

    Hamed fought Robinson in 95 and prior to his loss to Hamed these were the rankings the year before.

    1. Kevin Kelley
    2. Tom Johnson
    3. Steve Robinson
    4. Eloy Rojas
    5. Yong-Kyun Park
    6. Alejandro Gonzalez
    7. Tracy Harris Patterson
    8. Ever Beleno
    9. Orlando Soto
    10. Manuel Medina

    Vazquez was 37 years old. Bungu was moving up in weight and had not fought in a year.

    Steve Robinson beat 3 quality fighters in McMillan, Hodkinson, McKenzie, to prove he was a worthy world champion.

    Johnson was old, ancient for a featherweight. He hadnt really beaten anyone of note especially since it was a weak era of featherweights. So what he had held belts at 126? The division was nothing to sniff at.

    This current lightweight division is far more stacked than the featherweight division Hamed fought in.

    Johnson was badly rocked in his fight before meeting Hamed and struggled.

    That clown doesn't even know who those guys are. He doesn't even watch the fights he just watches videos of other clowns on YouTube and then he parrots what they say.

    He claimed Hamed had a very long reach for a featherweight longer than Tom Johnson and Steve Robinson when in fact those guys had like 5 or 6 inches reach advantage over Hamed.

    Roman Gonzalez a former Straweight World Champion has the same reach as Hamed FFS.

    That's irrelevant unless Tank fights the likes of Haney, Lomachenko, Stevenson. As it's already been said Tank could surpass Hamed in the future. But for now Hamed clearly has the better resume by quite some distance.

    5-6 inches, WTF? You think Robinson had a longer reach than Marciano?! The same reach as Duran?! Have you even watched that fight? I can`t remember any fighter having a reach advantage over Naz except matbe Kelly.

    Since you like stats so much and repeating what other clowns say on YouTube and copy pasting bs you see on wiki go check their actual stats like their actual reach before you open your mouth you dope. Its like you're imune to facts.

    Then your memory, or knowledge, of the subject matter is lacking.

    Naz had a 64" reach. The reaches of a few of his opponents:

    Robinson 70"
    Medina 70"
    Johnson 69.5"
    Cabrera 67"
    Kelley 71"
    McCulloch 66"
    Ingle 67"
    Soto 67.5"
    Bungu 66"
    Barrera 70"

    I'm not sure if Hamed ever fought anyone with a shorter reach than him.

    Again making **** up again. You didn't even watched the fight you're talking about. Johnson wasn't badly rocked and even if it was true it's irrelevant to his fight with Hamed.
