    You euro or stateside?

    Either way brilliant.

    Back to the Topic of Macho Camacho the greatness, words can’t describe how excited I am for this documentary.

    I truly hope they highlight machismo and not some femi**** version condemning toxic masculinity.

    I’m worried about that because they interview Camacho jr.

    Camacho sr gave son his all and later in life camachito was chitting on Macho and that wasn’t cool with me.

    Macho epitomized machismo and its greatness.

    The demons come with that lifestyle but there’s a reason that’s how men and many fighters chose that way.

    Very excited for the documentary on a very sacred day December 4th.
    Stateside my man and thanks! This director is phenomenal at making documentaries so I don’t think you have to worry one bit. The one about Resto that he directed was very good!

        Great documentary? Jimmy Montoya took him to the lightweight title and the best he ever looked, and no interview with him? Half ass at best...

          Dude partied every day he trained. Imagine what he would’ve accomplished had he taken training seriously. He wanted to be a star more than a boxer.

            Puerto Rican boxing has been missing a character like Camacho. It feels like forever

              One of the most unfitting nicknames in boxing.

              People say May was a runner, they haven't seen what running really looks like.

                He fought a ton of all time greats. Duran, De La Hoya, Sugar Ray, and Chavez. He also had a life outside the ring that begs for deeper dives. This is not the first documentary on him, but I am very interested. Saw his "30 for 30" episode and it was quality.

                  Pre-Rosario Camacho was hella exciting to watch. Boxing needs more character like him seriously.

                  Today these boring ass dudes like Spence are considered as stars lol.

                      Isn't this what wrestling is for ?

                      His pitty pat and hold technique was not very macho. I wanted DLH to cut off that rat tail so badly
