How would Camacho Sr. OR Camacho Jr. faired against Floyd @ WW?
Do you think either Camacho would have been able to beat or give Mayweather. Run for his money at 147? Camacho Jr. was a slick, crafty southpaw who was Mayweather-esque in his technique.
Lets use Judah as a counterpoint. If you took Zab, Made him undamaged mentally (in the ring in the ring!), you would have a fighter similar enough to Camacho. When Judah started that fight his speed gave Floyd fits because Floyd is not as fast as people think. Camacho would not have stopped fighting and was capable of making adjustments in the ring to a much greater degree than Zab, not to the degree of Mayweather.
Given those variables I think it would be a great scrap. It would hinge on whether Mayweather could adjust to Camacho's speed and aggression. I wouldn't want to be the oddsmaker on that one!
Jr was and is a bum. A prime Camacho Sr would have been a very interesting scrap given his skills, speed, explosiveness, and southpaw stance.

Jr. Is useless and might even get ko'd. Sr. Has a chance to beat him based on speed. Good example above using Judah, Floyd looked like **** early in that fight. Macho would keep it up all fight.

I don't know man. Roger Mayweather brags all the time about how he used to put a beating on Camacho. Saying 'I used to bake that a$$ all the time.'
