Hector Camacho Sr. vs. Ricky Hatton

[ElTerribleMorales]

Comes down to footwork for me. Really these two are on different universes there. Camacho could stink out an arena and was labeled a runner at times but the lateral movement combined with those combinations would see Ricky in a bad way late, he wouldnt be able to trap and pounce on Camacho, and Camachos beard was solid. Think Ricky would be more Pazienza then a Haugen, who was a tricky boxer at times and not just a mauler.

I think Hatton had great footwork. Very quick feet. I think he'd be able to catch up to Camacho fairly easily. Just not sure what sort of plan he'd have once he'd done that.

He caught up to Mayweather much easier than most anticipated, but he had no idea what to do once he got there.

agree with you there, but IMO if Hatton couldn't clinch you he really wasn't that effective, and we know how "crafty" Camacho could be, he'd avoid the clinch and get Hatton with flurries than hold on to him

Yeah Hatton had trouble if he couldn't clinch. That was his problem with Mayweather. He couldn't deal with Mayweather's movement up close. He could match his footwork and get up close, but he couldn't get anything off once he got there. Same thing would probably happen with Camacho.
