    Vicente Saldivar
    Eusebio Pedroza
    Alexis Arguello
    Azumah Nelson
    Juan Manuel Marquez
    Kid Chocolate
    Henry Armstrong
    Eder Jofre
    Abe Attell
    Johnny Dundee
    Terry McGovern
    Jim Driscoll
    Marco Antonio Barrera
    Danny Lopez

    To name a few and not all of those guys are career featherweights but still had greater accomplishments at the weight.
    Well like I said "even that's not a givin"But there is no Footage of T McG and he and ABE Attell was a 118pder for most of career.Also even though my Irish azz loves Terrable terry both he and Attell were both involved in fixed fights(esp Attell).And some others had very short times at 26(Armstrong,Arguello)and not sure D Lopez was a better fighter(exciting yes)but better its close.But yes I would rank him below most on your list except for Driscoll who for some reason I cant remember I req the name but his career is not coming to mind.And also Dundee I don't think is on some other level.

      I would rate him a little higher then you if he was fightin today.I think he makes bottom 3rd people forget how many rated guys he beat.They just remember MAB and he is an ATG.But put his record up with Inoue SSR,Garcia right now and it stands up.Its just some of these guys have yet to fall and once they do half the guys on here will s hite all over them.Kinda like they do Hamed for MAB fight.

            Yeah he is typical of someone who had an overrated resume when he was active, then became underrated and overlooked after the Barrera loss.

            Medina, Boom Boom, Kelley, Ingle, Bungu, McCullough all good wins. He won all 4 alphabet belts too which is overlooked.

                I believe he just missed on the WBA. Wilfredo Vazquez vacated in order to fight Hamed.

                  Yea forgot about Ingle he was no world beater but fringe contenter.But Hamed SHOULD be 1st guy to win all 4 belts but never got WBA because they stripped Vasquez like a week before for not fightin some mand instead of the best guy in div at time.Dude was prob dead like the guy the WBO rated for a least a couple months before somone told them.Thing is he prob was not top 20 best fighter in morg.Yea its like that always guys now are like INOUE is a monster then he losses to top fighter like say Tete and he is just a bum SMDH.

                    Ah - I always thought it was for the belt and Hamed vacated after the W.

                      Now that's got to be a joke.I mean I used to like watching Paez fight great fight with tony Lopez and Dorsey but Hamed much better resume.
