    [Video] Danny Garcia: Amir Khan is perfect for me




    He pretty much named all of Khan's flaws perfectly.

    Naming the flaws is one thing being good enough to do anything about it is another and IMO Garcia just does not have the tools to get the job done.
    Khan's speed is very difficult to cope with especially when you are a square on boxer like Garcia with a leaky defence. Not only is Khan faster but his punches are straighter and a straight fast punch is going to hit the target quicker than slow loopy ones. Khan's defence is not good and that is where Garcia's best chance lies but Khan's chin is OK and I don't see him going down from a single shot. I will be very surprised if Khan does not win this. I think it is going to be a tough fight for Khan and will go the distance.

      Can he capitalise on his flaws though?

      I quite this guy how he conducts himself etc but I just don't think he has the tools or the style.

      I do think he can hurt Khan but again I don't think he has the tools to finish him. He HAS good power but he is a god awful finisher that will let him off the hook.
      I honestly think this kid lacks killer instinct.

      Everytime he has dropped someone or had them hurt, hes backed off. If he had it safely in the bag its understandable but it hasn't always been and he can't rely on the judges vs Khan.

        It seems Kendal Holt has given fighters more confidence, Timothy Bradley said he wasn't worried about Pacquiao's power because he believed Holt hit much harder, which is true in my opinion. We're seeing it again with Garcia in how he disregarded Khan's power, saying Holt hit much harder.

          Well he was able to capitalize on them.
