			“It’s Still Macho Time!”
			By Christian Giudice; Boxing.com on August 17, 2014[http://www.boxing.com/its_still_macho_time.html]
			'''CHARLOTTE, North Carolina'''—Sometimes living in your father’s shadow can be daunting,
			but for Hector Camacho Jr. the connection to his late father Hector Camacho Sr. will
			never truly leave him. Every time he steps into the ring, Camacho Jr. can still hear
			his voice, imploring him to work harder and be persistent. On Saturday night, in
			Charlotte, NC, at the '''Carole Hoefener Center, Camacho Jr.''' introduced the strong
			Camacho legacy to the Queen City as he '''headlined a Jonathan K. Nazeer boxing card''',
			“Rumble in the City,” that featured a host of amateur bouts and three professional
			matchups. Any time a Camacho name is on the marquee, one can, at the very least,
			expect a show.

			That’s what they got as Camacho (58-6-1 32 KOs) '''knocked down Mexico’s Miguel Angel
			Munguia (29-32-1 25 KOs) four times to stop him in the second round.''' Amid the chants
			of “Macho Time,” a loose Camacho Jr. joked with the crowd, and used a vicious body
			attack of right hooks to close out the contest.
			Despite his familiarity with Camacho’s style after already facing him once last May,
			Munguia put up little resistance.

			“I don’t usually go to the body that early, but I could hear him make a (coughing)
			sound that first time I went to the body. I knew I hurt him,” said Camacho Jr., who
			came in at 175. Minutes later, Camacho added: “It’s still macho time!”
			At 35, Camacho still dreams about coming down to fight for a world title at 154, but
			a step up in competition is necessary in his next bout if he wants a valid measurement
			of where he is. “When I came up, I just wanted to be Hector Camacho’s son. That was
			good enough. It wasn’t my goal to win a world title,” Camacho said before the fight.
			“But now I want to win a world title.”

			The card wasn’t without a little NFL flavor as former Minnesota Vikings defensive end
			and current heavyweight prospect, '''Ray Edwards, 262, knocked out an overmatched, but
			game DJ Hughey, 227, in the fourth and final round of the co-main event.''' Although most
			of Edwards’ opponents have not challenged him, Edwards finally faced a pressure fighter
			who forced him to work on some of his weaknesses. “He gave me some problems with his
			movement,” said Edwards. Still, in a brutal bout, Edwards opened a cut under Hughey’s
			left eye, and landed a huge left hook that sent Hughey reeling to end the bout. Overall,
			the fight provided Edwards (8-0, 5 KOs) some much needed experience.

			“I told him after the bout that when [Hughey] barrels in, to push him back out. That’s
			what he did,” said former world heavyweight champ, Tony Tubbs, who has worked with
			Edwards in his last two bouts and loves his work ethic. “These young fighters hear what
			we say, but it isn’t until they get it that they understand it. In the gym, the mitts
			don’t hit back.”

			Leading into the co-main event, '''William Mcelroy, 147, formerly of the Kronk Gym, made
			quick work of Charlotte’s Dazmine Coleman, 150 1/2''', to stay undefeated at 4-0. Mcelroy
			knocked '''Coleman down three times with hooks to the body in the first round. The referee
			stepped in after the third knockdown to save Coleman from any further punishment.'''
			“I told you before the fight that it would last as long as I said it would last,” said
			Mcelroy, who looks to move up to six-rounders. In the end, it was a good night of boxing.
