    Camacho in an embarrassingly easy UD

    aside from the top echelon of all time greats, not many can handle pac in the weight classes he's fought in.

    If the fight did happen and he was down three times, he would hold, run and pop shots to a victory. Again, Camacho being dropped only twice in his career. Once staged with a fast Domincan fighter who I can't remember his name right now and then Oscar. Three times, Pac would have to be Tyson with the power and quickness. Again, Camacho had a granite chin throughout 130 to 165. Good question and again all I can say is he would possibly hold, run, pop shots.

    hypothetical question. besides it would not be impossible if camacho would be surprised by a combination of power and speed just like what happened to marquez the first time around especially at the time when he haven't fought rosario yet. just questioning camacho's heart and what are his tendencies if a situation doesn't went his way. good answer though and very informative.

    Camacho did well to hold on for dear life against Rosario, who believe me, powerwise would blow Manny Pacquiao away at 135 lbs.

    If Camacho while hurt survived Rosario, I have no doubt he'd survive Pacquiao if he would to get hurt.

    As far as Camacho's ability to absorb punishment, the ultimate systematic punisher in JC Chavez laid a beatdown on Camacho for 12 rounds and Camacho survived on his feet without going down.
    .....and I'm talking about Camacho who was already on the downside of his prime.

    Believe in whatever you want to believe. These are questions and answers/opinions which will/can never be PROVEN.

    So far, Pac has proven that he can win EVEN if he is an underdog.
    Thinking that pac is an underdog is again at statement which is hard to
    be confirmed.

    So it basically does not matter if you say camacho KO's pac is half a round or UD coz it REALITY. It NEVER HAPPENED!

    I'm more into REALISTIC fights that could actually happen than x boxer versus y boxer (and one of the boxer has long reritired decades ago!)

    Navarette was the most undisiplined of the bunch. He had natural talent and power yet wasted his prime years in vices. He was imprisoned in Hawaii for rapewhile he was still actively fighting and now is penniless living in the Philippines.

    Had he had half the discipline of Pac (which probably is not much), who knows what he could have achieved.

    This is a mythical matchup thread, what the hell are you doing involved in them if you dont like discussing mythical matchups?

    There's alot of other threads floating around that could maybe suit your fancy......
    .....try one of the threads that are predicting Pac-Diaz PPV sales!:lol: :yep :hi:

    Just curious, why then jump in and post. Just answer the realistic threads. We are having much fun with this thread going over 200 + posts whether for or against Camacho or Pac. Of course it never happened, but that is why it is called a fantasy match-up. I am sure if even Pac or Camacho joined in to read all these posts, they would be intrigued on the knowledge and respect of all the members posts. Actually, Camacho is not retired. Believe it or not, he is going to fight at 154. If you want realistic, than push for Pac to fight Camacho at 150 or 154. I mean, it is okay for Pac to jump up to fight Oscar. Just messing with you. Just have fun with it.

    Have we ever seen pacman in with a guy like Camacho who can move side to side ... who had lightning quick hands & feet and POP at 130 ... southpaw iron chin.... ???????

    How would Pac even find Camacho with his inferior footwork ? Camacho's superior hand, foot speed, boxing skills makes this an easy pick ....

    pac is tough but he can't hurt what he can't catch
