    He was never stopped.
    Who would he have lost to?

    Had Hector Camacho Remained @ '35, a RE w/Rosario Would've Absolutely Been DEMANDED By the Boxing Public...

    "Macho" Camacho was One of the Most GIFTED Fighters Ever, But a BETTER Question Is "If Camacho HADN'T Fought Rosario?", Considering it was Such a WATERSHED Moment in His Career...

    No, thats not the case. By time Chavez moved up to 135, Camacho was already gone. His last fight at lightweight was against Boza Edwards.

    I think he just ate his way out of lightweight, tbh. Theres no indication he was ducking Chavez at the time. Remember, Chavez wasn't really considered a true beast until AFTER he thrashed Rosario.

    Hector then moved up to 140 and beat Howard Davis, in what was probably his last vintage performance.

    He started declining after the Davis fight.
