Hector "Macho" Camacho vs. Amir Khan
Khan beat a poor man's version of Camacho in Paul Malinaggi, but what if he were to face the real thing ?
I say Camacho out smarts him and out points him at this stage.
Khan is more the more powerful of the two, but Camacho had an iron chin, was very cagey and had blazing hand speed.
Camacho by close UD.

The Hector Camacho who destroyed Jose Luis Ramirez, Rafael Limon, wins a wide UD or possibly stops Amir Khan late on.

Con would have a small edge in power. But Camacho was faster and had the better chin. Camacho in 3

Just bring the Camacho who fought Baltazar. Khan would be in over his head from jump off.

That is the Camacho I was thinking of. Camacho at 140 early 90's.
Re: Hector "Macho" Camacho vs. Amir Khan
Camacho was better in the 80's as a Lightweight.
Re: Hector "Macho" Camacho vs. Amir Khan
Camacho was no puncher at the higher weights, he was not that exciting but very skilled. Rosario took away his testicles in their fight and he ran ever since.

Thats what I've heard.
I really need to watch some of his old fights.
What do you suggest ?
Re: Hector "Macho" Camacho vs. Amir Khan
KHan with a shitty footwork? oh that overrated guy..
Macho doesn't even have to be at 140 to beat him. Pre-Rosario Macho shits all over Khan..

The ones i mentioned above Ramirez, Limon, absolute masterclasses.
Re: Hector "Macho" Camacho vs. Amir Khan
People tend to forget how good Camacho was at Lightweight, he took some heavy shots from Rosario, but you couldn't really question the result. Rosario just didn't finish the job in Round 5 or 11. Khan would struggle with Camacho at 135 and 140lb. It's a UD for Camacho.
