      The early 80's Camacho would be avoided. The drug addict version would be just a name on the resume.

        I can't say it any better than this.

          Makes no sense. Chaves sr wiped the floor with him.

            Makes perfect sense. He said at 130 he fought JCC sr at 140.

              And at a time when Camacho was dealing with drug addiction and run ins with the law. Hell, for his fight against Trinidad he was on house arrest and had to train at his house since he couldn't leave. Imagine if Hector had half the discipline of a Duran, De La Hoya or Trinidad.

                  Factsss. That’s 100% true when taken in context but as we know in boxing context is only used by certain individuals in order to make certain fighters look good or bad.

                    One of the greatest to ever lace a pair of gloves.
