Sisters and girlfriends of the late boxer Hector “Macho” Camacho got into a brawl at his wake in San Juan, according to a Thursday report.
Yahoo.com said Cynthia Catillo, who said she was the boxer’s girlfriend, kissed him on the mouth and walked away from the casket.
The 28-year-old’s actions apparently sparked a fight with Gloria Fernandez.
Camacho’s family reportedly recognized Fernandez as his last girlfriend.
The boxer’s sisters, Esther and Estrella, were also part of the fight, according to the article.
Officers responded to the scene to stop the brawl.
Camacho died after being shot in the face in Puerto Rico earlier this month.
The article said Camacho will be flown to New York and buried in the Bronx. Read the full article on Yahoo.com.
