    At light weight how do these talented guys do against each other?
    The buchanan of the laguna ft versus macho of the ramirez ft?
    Good old classic 15 rounds this one.

    Very tight one to call. At the moment I pick Ken as his marvelous jab could trouble Camacho a lot.

    Buchanan - He was the more complete fighter.

    Wow...tough match up. I think these two could split a series.

    Ken never lays a glove on him. Macho has too much speed, his legs are too good. Hector coasts to a points win.

    Yeah, Camacho uses his speed and lands the cleaner, harder (and flashier) punches in this one. UD.

    Kenny beat Laguna but he was past his best. Camacho a speed demon and
    Kenny might counter puncher Camacho but without the power of Rosario.
    Camacho blazing hands too much for Kenny. Camacho on pts.

    Kenny may be my fav. all time fighter but I don't think his jab would be enough to beat Hector and in every other department I give Camacho an edge. They both threw combinations but Hector's were abit faster with more on them, both had great footwork but Camacho quicker, both could take a punch and go to the head and body but again,,,,An interesting fight and win for Hector.

    Camacho. I think his southpaw style is something Ken just doesn't solve. And Hector just peppers away piling up the points. Decision bout all the way. Zero knockdowns and zero cuts and zero guys even buckled.

    Surprised by how lopsided the voting is in this one.

    I think Camacho runs and runs and runs some more to an unpopular decision victory .
