    Camacho was actually very good against Rosario, sure he got nailed, but Rosario failed to knock him down. Camacho had a great chin, Chavez, Trinidad and DLH couldn't stop him. Oscar almost did it, but also failed to finish him off. Camacho V Whitaker would've been something to see! Not sure why that didn't happen, i know they always talked about it.
    Camacho reminds me of a team that won the Championship, but struggled in the premier League. (The QPR of Boxing?)

    not only did they never stop him, NONE EVER DROPPED HIM, Camacho has never hit the canvas, like you said Oscar almost dropped him but then Camacho tackled him

    He managed to do what alot cannot and that's to surpass the ring and make himself pretty much a house hold name, at times a catch phrase. A great entertainer but late on he was living on that alone. Rewatched the Solis and Mancini fights a couple of weeks ago. Nice little scrap the Solis go. I actually had the Mancini fight razor thin. Camacho for me was loath or love at certain points. His go with Baltazar sticks, he really was sharp. He talked so much shit before Chavez and came up limp. The Haugen fights were not bad at all, nice little rivalry. I thought Greg took it by a couple and Haugen literally suckered him into punching just a bit cheaply with ref trying to have a meeting at the United Nations moment. Hate the Leonard "fight". Nothing to be proud of in beating down a ghost of a ghost of a great.

    Good summary. The Leonard fight was pathetic, amazing to see how shot Ray was all of a sudden. I mean he was SHOT.

    Funny thing is that Camacho fought Sugar Ray Leonard and Oscar De La Hoya in the same year !!!
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    The beating Hector Camacho gave to Leonard was fantastic, best thing he did for a long time.

    because Leonard made a career of trying to beat shot fighters after his comeback win against Hagler which included Hearns, Duran, and Lalonde. Glad Terry Norris bust his ass too.
