Good Bye Macho Camacho...

[lots0]

Today Hector “Macho” Camacho was declared dead.

Hector was shot in the head while sitting in his car in Porto Rico.

Pound for pound Hector was one of the greatest Boxers in History.
I loved watching him fight... he was amazing. Macho took apart Sugar Ray and no one could put Sugar Ray back together again.

His over the top entrances to his fights always made me smile, no matter how far out they were.

It is a sad day...

I am not sure if any exist but reading about this the last few days I figured I would look to see if HBO or Showtime had any of his fights on demand so I could watch a few of them.

I was reading about this on the news today, it's so sad. No one deserves to die like this. RIP Macho Camacho.

Here is a youtube link to some of his fight videos (Camacho vs Sugar Ray). The quality is not so good... but the fighting is GREAT!

It also shows some of his more flamboyant entrances.

You gotta love those Trunks of his... He was truly one of kind... so sad.

Thanks for the link, I cruised through HBO last night and they have a number of fights listed but none of his. I was reading about him this morning, I had no idea one of his last fights was here in Kissimmee in 2010.... kissimmee????
