    Neither did Foreman until he met Ali .

    Very possible. Corrales has good punch recovery, but I could see him going down at least once against a guy who had some power and serious handspeed at 130 and 135.

    Camacho fought killers like Limon, Rosario, Chavez, Oscar and Trinidad and was never in serious trouble of getting stopped. Camacho has P4P one of the best chins ever

    No way Corrales knocks him out. Just no way. Did you just say Trinidad is not a murderous puncher? Whatever that means.

    Diego Corrales was a very good professional... But I simply think Camacho was a class higher... And lightweight was one of his better divisions.

    All of them are at least equal if not bigger punchers than Corrales

    No. But others did. Camacho fought Trinidad at 147 lbs. Trinidad at 147 hit way harder than Corrales at 135. Rosario at 135 hit harder than Corrales at 135 lbs.

    Camacho was stunned by Rosario, but was not close to being KOd. He was too slick for Rosario to hit repeadedly. He did stagger Camacho a bit, twice, with single hard shots.

    Limon shouldn't even be discussed because he barely touched Camacho in their fight.

    Camacho by decision. Too much speed. In and out along with that southpaw stance.
