    Camacho v Money @ 135 lbs.

    Camacho v Mayweather Jr. at 135?

    Camacho by UD (12) -- Camacho's in-out style and hand speed would have given Hector an early rounds lead, forcing Money out of his usual game plan, having to move forward.

    Second six rounds: Camacho would be at his best moving backwards with the other guy trying to come to him.

    I see this as an easy points win for Hector without any real fight ever breaking out.

    To beat Camacho you had to be able to hurt him. That took welterweights, at 135 Money didn't have the **** to put Camacho down; Camacho would have made him look awarkward.

    Interesting take. Hard to argue against it though I think it'd be close.

      Yeah...No, I don't think so.

      Mayweather is totally different class of fighter to Camacho and beats him easily.

          - - Camacho likely the most unbeatable fighter at 130-135 until the nose candy took over.

          Case in point the way he darted around prime JL Ramirez slapping fanny and spinning him like a top such that the ref had to warn him. Ray Leonard celebrity coannouncer said he was the fastest, quickest fighter he'd ever seen, just wow, wow, and more how does he do that, and more importantly, it was his own style as a natural fighter. There's a story about him getting mixed up with a 250lber in a nightclub, a story backed up by witnesses. Hector jumps in and inside three seconds had the guy stumbling around looking for his face as Hector, by street instinct, took to his feet to clear any of the rest of the trouble that night.

          KDed JL as well. A few years later Pea took his first loss to a faded JL where he was lowblowing and hanging on for dear life by his end after eating more than a dozen El Ganchos..

          l'l floydy was not a natural fighter. He was a made fighter. Hector would PO uncle Roger so bad he might lose his pants like Pea did to him.

          l'l floydy has the career achievements because of Camacho's drug habit that robbed him of a much greater career, but he koed SRLeonard, a better scalp that l'l floydy has.

            I’m genuinely not sure if I’ve seen this level of delusion before.

            Well done.

              All it took was Edwin Rosario to establish Camacho's actual level. Mayweather would counterpunch him silly.

                  - - Teensy Jesus Chavez was wowing HBO while whooping l'l floydy pillar to post, his actual level needing help from Chavez celebrity trainer Ronnie Shields who sparked a fight with Chavez Richard Lord when Shields pulled the plug on Chavez.

                  Camacho took Rosario to a decision win...yer welcome...

                    I know, Camacho won. But he was never the same after Rosario hit him hard, he became Camacho-on-the-bicycle from then on. And if Rosario could hit him like that, I believe that Mayweather definitely could have.
