prime vs prime.. I'd have to lean toward Macho.. he was incrediblly good.. his speed and defense was ridiculous.. great fight though.. I really like Shane.. he is relentless..
Glad someone agrees there were two version of Camacho. Personally I think Shane beats both versions. I think he stops the pre-Rosario version that was willing to engage in close quarters and trade. At 135 Shane could flat out pop, and I think he pounds Camacho into a late round TKO. After Rosario, I agree 100% with you. Shane wins a clear, and completely boring decision in which Camacho's tassles and leopard pattern trunks are moving 100 MPH in the other direction.
Terribly tough one to call, but I'd take Mosley on points. Shane was a big, strong, powerful lightweight, and I never realized how small Camacho was until I saw him in person in Houston last summer, as he appeared to be around 5 3 1/2 - 5'4. Shane too big and tough, and too good for Camacho.
Camacho ahead 30-27 until Mosley hits him with a big right hand. Then he attempts to win via stink like he did against Rosario and instead loses a SD
Camacho would struggle to have any success against Mosley. Unless you're an absolute master like Whitaker or Floyd, you're gonna struggle against Mosley if you can't put enough hurt on him to make him second guess himself - and Camacho was no master, nor could he put any hurt on Shane. There would be nothing close about it. Mosley by wide UD.
Agreed. Shane was too big and has a bit too much pop for Camacho at 135. I think Camacho has success until Mosley catches him with something significant. After that Macho goes safety first and loses a decision. Shane's bodypunching would give Hector fits later in the fight.
i don't know what i was thinking before.. Camacho was fast as shit, and slippery but Shane was fast as shit and broke people down. I go with Shane
