Interestingly, says Alejandro Gonzalez hit harder than Hamed or JMM.

Yeah Hamed doesn't even get a mention, I don't think it was a grudge, just shows the quality of fighters that Medina faced.

It's typical for fighters to say that the hardest puncher they ever faced was someone they beat.

True, although when they do that they usually don't mention the more expected fighter. Here he specifically says he could feel Gonzalez's punches more than Hamed's or JMM's.

Gainer is the one who seemed to hurt him most

There is no doubt (in my opinion) that Naz avoided Juan Manuel Marquez as WBO champion .

I remember Medina threw over 1000 jabs against Johnny Tapia.

That was probably his greatest asset. He had very little punching power, but was awkward, long, and had a tireless stamina, and kept that jab going constantly.

Hamed absolutely avoided Juan M Marquez. At the time when Marquez was Hamed's number 1 contender (with the WBA I think)Boxing News often mentioned how Marquez should be getting his title shot.
