    Great fight, is it on Youtube? Just had a look and can't see it. Now that you've mentioned Camacho I'm going to watch the Bomm Boom fight :deal

    Gonna watch some PBF and Mosley fights in the lead up to the fight just to get myself more hyped up for it :yep

    So I rewatched Mayweather-Hatton for the first full time sinced it happened I think, I was devastated at the time because I completely got caught up in the hype and I thought Hatton could pull off one of the biggest wins for British boxing of all time.

    It was a very close fight from rounds 1-6, then Floyd realises that he can easily have the beating of Hatton on the inside as well...the way Floyd turned the fight around was quite brilliant.....his positioning and sneaky pushes with the forearm and shoulder made Hattons efforts obsolete....Cortez had zero impact on the fight, there was more holding then I remembered anyway.....

    Also watched Mosley-Mayorga........I remembered a bit of fuss in the GF about Mayorga being ahead on points before the stoppage at the time so I acutally decided to score it this time and I had Mosely up by 4......it was an ugly fight but great stoppage......

    Will watch a few more fights of each at sometime

    Macho was the truth! yeah, he had a lot of flaws and fought dumb fights and looked like just a more polished Maligaggi at times, but the guy could box and was a true original, an entertainer with a lot of swagga. Loved Camacho.

    Camacho Junior was the ****.
