Is Hector Camacho Hall of Fame Worthy?

was arturo gatti worthy?

 

Hell yes Camacho was HOF worthy...even after taking into consideration how his style changed after Edwin Rosario...we all got to see a glimpse of a truly great fighter before that.

 

Yeah, I think so. He was erratic, but as Cobra said, before Rosario he looked really good.

 

An extremely well known character in the sport, who's abilities are the equal or indeed surpass some already there.

Seems a certainty to me that he will go in.

 

Based on great fights he stared in, yes. Based on ability, not quite.

 

I have always felt that he is..

- Never stopped in 88 fights in a career that took him to the near age of 50 and usually only beaten by elite men, with the exception of a few when he was beyond past it.

- Competed in six weight classes and won world titles in three of them.

- Recorded wins over Greg Haugen, Vinnie Pazienza, Edwin Rosario, Howard Davis, Cornelius Boza Edwards, Jose Luis Ramirez, Irleis Perez, and Rafael Limon. ( we'll leave out Duran, Leonard and Mancini due to their being finished. )

That's more than some guys who have made it into the HOF can claim.

 

yes

 

YES!

and without doubt!

 

The rosario fight changed his outlook dramatically.

 

It will be a travesty if he doesn't get in.

 

Rosario,

NO it doesn't, he was still a great, losses against fellow TOP fighters are not 'necessarily' exclusion from Greatness.

There WERE/are, Far, Far more GREAT fighters than some people deduce!

 

Forget all those boring cable fights he was in and the loss to De La Hoya and Chavez,...the real Hector Camacho was just before that Rosario fight. It was just because Hector was a head case that the Rosario fight affected him the way it did...if he had his head scewed on right, he would have beaten Rosario convincingly in a rematch....and gone on to true greatness.

 

Especially talented!

 

Yes easy
