      people dont like him much because of his attitude(not surprising), but the guy was unbelievably fast.

      although it sounds like blasphemy, I think he could have beaten(or at least held his own against) a lot of the ATGs at super featherweight.

      even to this day hes still fighting, amazingly. and actually still had pretty quick hands at 46.

      seriously, watch Camacho's fights at 130lbs. the guy was something else. by the time he got around to Trinidad and De La Hoya, he was pretty much done, so dont judge him on those fights.

          In his prime..maybe 1981 to 1984...Macho was one of the most talented and skilled boxers anywhere...at 130 he was a match for anyone, including Floyd. People forget...but back then he was NASTY...

              Sugar Ray Leonard

              Besides roach that is an ATG lineup ! WOW, i'm shocked !


              Mancini was past his best and Camacho ran from him more than Boxed him, Leonard was well over the hill, Jesus how past it was Duran when he fought Camacho.

                The guy was really good early in his career though.
                Look yes he was obnoxious but he was talentedlike him or hate him he was a great boxer.a lot of people dont like hopkins but he is a hell of a fighter(before all the hating starts ,I am not comparing macho to hopkins)Im comparing people views to certain boxers!

                  Camacho was a poor mans Pernell Whitaker, only he ran where as Whitaker Boxed.
