Hector Camacho in the Hall? You Decide

[greynotsoold]

I agree with that. Lots of guys less deserving are in, and he was very successful- no shame in losing to Chavez, and he was an old guy fighting 17 pounds above his starting weight when he lost to Trinidad and De LaHoya.

I go with yeh. Not all glitter and dazzle he had serious skills and longevity with level of comp. Of course he gave us Hector camacho jr so that's a mark against him. The hall is pretty watered down, I mean didn't they just 'elect' Rocky flipping Balboa for crying out loud

[THE THIRD MAN]

Rosario pretty much ruined Camacho for all the talent he had from what I've heard. What happened to Camacho against Rosario?

Rosario hit him with a huge left hook in the 5th round, but Camacho did not go down. He was hurt, he was almost gone, but he survived. He won the fight, Rosario just didn't follow up well enough or wasn't allowed too. Camacho, depsite his flaws deserves to be in the hall of fame. I don't think he ever reached his full potential, he fought every one out there bar Whitaker and only lost to legends Chavez, Trinidad or DLH by decision.

Camacho had done enough early on against Rosario to earn the decision, but Rosario pretty much battered him for the last few rounds
