The late Hector “Macho” Camacho was known equally for his quickness in the ring as he was for the ostentatious and flamboyant ring outfits he and his cornermen would wear during his storied career. Camacho held three world championship titles in three different weight classes over his 30-year career, including the WBC super featherweight title from 1983-1984, the WBC lightweight title from 1985-1987, and the WBO junior welterweight title twice between 1989 and 1982. Camacho would post a record of 79 wins, 6 losses, 3 draws, with 38 of his wins coming by knockout. Camacho faced off against some of the most feared pugilists in boxing history, with fights against Julio Ceasar Chavez, Felix Trinidad, and Oscar De La Hoya that have now become the stuff of boxing legend. He twice beat an aged Roberto Duran and sent Sugar Ray Leonard into permanent retirement after knocking out Leonard during their March 1st, 1997 fight.
