    I think Tim Bradley wins a close decision. I don't think Hector wanted tough tough fights after Rosario.I think if he won he won easily. or he would lose. He didn't want to gut out wins too much. That is a general statement, but he never really was the fighter he could have been.

    If it's the still peak Camacho that beat Howard Davis, then I pick Camacho.

    I'd pick Bradley over the faded Camacho that fought Haugen.

    Talent wise, after his utter destruction Limon and Solis ,an his wide dec wins over Ramirez and Paul, I thought Camacho was on his way to ATG status. Possibly the Goat, after his total white washing over some very good fighters in their primes... But , one good shot from Rasario and drugs totally changed the trajectory of his career. Bradley's a good fighter, but if Camacho is focused, at 140. Camacho wouldn't have to much of a problem with Bradley. Camacho was still very sharp at that weight, and he wouldn't give Bradley a chance to do what he does best, because he would basically be chasing a ghost. Camacho by wide dec.

    Bradley by decision.

    He was very solid and Camacho at 140 lbs. was well below his 130 lb. and 135 lb. form.

    Camacho did look good against Davis, but Davis was a few years past prime and had no power. Post Rosario, Camacho was gunshy and safety first against anyone with decent punching power. Bradley had decent power.
