Macho, dead at 50 with cocaine in the car.
Too bad, he may have beaten some good fighters but seems like life beat him.
Be humble people, the fight game is exciting but life is for real

It is amazing watching this and comparing it to the like of Mayweather and today’s boxers. Mayweather would whoop these dudes up. The speed difference is much greater and using the universal or Philly guard makes it really hard to hit him.

the passenger in the car got the cocaine and he dies because of a bullet in the face the brain stop working no cocaine involved.

Powertele- Camacho was never that good and obviously Ray was not in his prime. The real sugar was Ray Robinson and he would fkin smoke Mayweather but, we would never have to care because Mayweather would be too afraid to accept the fight.
Mayweather is a can crusher and a clown who beats women.

Sad end to one of the Great Fighters of the era.
I remember watching him fight as a 10 year old.
Anyone can get beat on any given day.
And we are all going to die sooner or later.
RIP…Please respect the passing of a Real Fighter.

@Powertele I know its human nature to think your generation is the best but that is not the case.Suger ray was lighting fast in his prime,if mayweather would have had to face guys like ray,hagler and duran you can bet he would not have the record he does.

LOL at you jokers here, I guess Hearns, Hagler, Duran, and Chavez were all bums too???
Please, go back and watch how good both of those guys were in their PRIME.
And, sadly, you must re-read the article, there were 10 bags of coke in the car, 9 were on the other person, one “open in the car” and likely just used by both. I wouldn’t want to leave this world high or drunk, that’s terrible. It should be a wake up call for addicts.
Camacho had class at the end of the fight, he was speechless and gave Leonard the mic. He was a good guy. I met him and his son a few years back, and he was like a perennial 19 yo kid inside. Maybe that was his downfall.

“marvelous mad madam mim”
5 Time Champion and you say he was not that good.
Over 60 wins, and you say he is not that good.
He had a style that was controversial, so what.
I say “Very entertaining and a very good boxer”
He was part of the era’s that made boxing worth
watching.

@marvelous mad madam mim
Just because boxing historians honor Robinson as the best ever doesn’t give you the right to regurgutate this useless info without even knowing anything about the boxers you’re referring to. Leonard is a legend, and Camacho was a true champion. No need to discredit either one. Equally, Mayweather as much as there vaild reasons to dislike him has shown no signs of being “smoked” by any boxer alive or dead.
@Mayweather Broner
Does ignorant trolling even deserve a response.

When I was 16 years old I was in Las Vegas for a week in the Summer. I was taking an elevator down and it stopped. In comes a little dude in a sweat suit that said “Macho Camacho” on the back. It was 1980′s and I knew who he was then.
RIP Champ.

I am not a Mayweather fan at all you guys. I learned by watching that he is good. His guard allows him to stay covered up and he strikes only when someone is vulnerable. This is great in a street fight or something not for entertainment. But, for entertainment and the love of the sport, Sugar Ray brought it. He boxed to bring a fight and so do many other boxers. Other boxers can turtle up and win fight, but it does not keep people interested in the sport. My generation sucks for boxers. That is why we have MMA. Thanks for the conversation guys, but don’t assume anyone’s personal beliefs. I simply said Mayweather was lightning fast. When he strikes it comes outta nowhere and the opponent feels it. Sugar Ray, I know he was old here and I did not think of that.
