    Hector Camacho lacked the mettle to be a great fighter. It wasn't the drugs that stopped him being great, although they surely didn't help.

    People say he changed his style after the Rosario fight, but I think that misses the point of what really occurred. Camacho got hit and found out that he didn't like it, but he didn't change after the Rosario fight.

    What happened is his lack of willingness to get hit and fight back got exposed. It was something latent in Camacho all along, he just never got hit for us all to see what became of him when he did.

    True scientist, he fought in survival mode & tentative after the chapo fight. but believe me,the man never train properly.He used to show up gleason gym and hit the speed bag and jump rope then call it a day,thats not the mark of true champion.After he beat bazooka limon to win his first title,he would come to spanish harlem in a limosine bragging and showing off............NO DISIPLINE AT ALL!

    JR. is a punk,that will never like SR. at least camacho won a title and was able to defend his title a few times.Remember the fight JR. had in coney island against jesse james leija,he cop-out that fight telling the doctor that he wasnt able to see from his right eye,after leija was wipping that ass he force the doctor to stop the fight so they could go to the scorecard. getting awarded a controversial desicion,that was later turn-to a no contest: what a punk!

    Camacho could have been great but he decided to be a saftey first runner after the Rosario fight.
