Steve Tannenbaum, a friend and a former boxing agent for Camacho, said in a phone interview that he idolized Camacho as a boxer.
He is one of the greatest small fighters that I have ever seen, he said. Hector Camacho had a legendary status.
Tannenbaum said he initially believed Camacho would survive. He was almost like the indestructible man. He had so many troubles with the law, so many altercations in his life. Its a great shame.
The 50-year-old Camacho was shot as he and a friend sat in a Ford Mustang parked outside a bar Tuesday night. Police spokesman Alex Diaz said officers found nine small bags of cocaine in the friends pocket, and a 10th bag open inside the car. Camachos friend, identified as 49-year-old Adrian Mojica Moreno, was killed in the attack.
