\"\"<\/a>Showtime Sports Documentary Films has released a clip from the upcoming documentary film, MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY, an unflinching look at the remarkable life, storied career and unsolved murder of one of boxing\u2019s greatest showmen. Premiering Friday, December 4 at 9 p.m. ET\/PT on SHOWTIME, the documentary debuts eight years after Camacho\u2019s fatal shooting in Bayamon, Puerto Rico.

In the first look clip, iconic sportscaster Tim Ryan recollects the events of Camacho\u2019s 1983 fight against John Montes in Anchorage, Alaska. Encapsulating Camacho\u2019s remarkable life and career \u2013 from his sublime boxing skills and unbridled charisma to his battle with addiction and inner turmoil \u2013 Ryan details how Camacho scored a dominant first-round knockout just one night after a frightening drug-fueled incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were grateful for the fact that he recovered and the fight went on, but it was a source of great concern to us from that point forward because we knew he was dealing with the demons,\u201d Ryan says.<\/p>\n

MACHO: THE HECTOR CAMACHO STORY is directed by two-time Emmy\u00ae Award winner Eric Drath (Assault in the Ring and No M\u00e1s, 30 for 30). Drath and Danielle Naassana, both of Live Star Entertainment, served as producers.
