Mind you I've never been a big Camacho fan. But a peak Camacho would have little problem with Ricky Hatton. Hatton would've been in way, way over his head.

Like Hatton alot...and like Camacho least but believe best for best Camacho would shut Hatton down over 12. Leave him lurching and jumping in all night. Skill vs will here.
i think larry merchant said it best when he stated that camacho is one of those fighters who likes to pile up 20 wins against tomato cans, then claim to be 20-0 and get a title shot, only to lose it when he faces anybody really good in their prime (please people, sugar ray doesnt count there in 1997 OK....). Ricky Hatton would lower the boom on that phony all-time "great" camacho in about 4 rounds--camamcho would wake up in what he thought was bayamon, p.r., only to realize he was in the hospital with a block of ice-9 on his snout.
Hatton would get couterpunched alot , and cut to ribbons.
Camacho by late tko.

i will take camacho by decision possibly a debated decision like the rosario fight , hatton is not going to hurt camacho to the head but his body work may well do more damage than camacho may of thought
think happy thoughts
Boy I'm surprised at how many people are picking Camacho. He is def rated better on here than I thought he was. Rightly so.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
I think Camacho could win points or stop Hatton late (cuts?)
And I do like Hatton

Camacho is more a case of not living up to his potential than not having talent or skill, IMO if he would have dedicated himself more to his actual boxing career instead of gaining attention and getting into trouble for drugs and stealing he would be remembered more for his ability instead of his short comings
No offense to Ricky, but he wasn't well rounded as a fighter and if he couldn't hurt his opponent then he was at a disadvantage, Ricky was a hard worker but could be countered and anyone that moved away constantly and avoided the clinch would be hard for Ricky to outwork as well.
Hatton had a fun style to watch....when he fought the right opponents.
I think if Ricky was in his prime right now, a fight with Tim Bradley would have been amazing.
