    How good is Angel Garcia as a trainer?

    During the Khan fight I think his work in the corner was superb! Especially the advice he gave at the end of the second round.

    I feel a lot of trainers reel off to much information/instructions at times, often hard for a fighter to take it all in.

    ''Listen Danny, you gotta be more crispy man!''

    I particularly loved ''Hes leaning towards your left! Left uppercut, man. WATCH HIM! Instead of just being out of control, watch him! Okay? Don't frustrate yourself with the blood or nothing. Stay calm, man!''

    We'll probably have a better gauge on how good he is as Danny's career progresses but I don't think anyone can fault him (at least on the training aspect) so far.

    It'll be interesting to see how he reacts when his boy is under some real pressure.

      I re-watched the Khan-Garcia fight last night and Angel Garcia does give good advice, and he does seem to spot the right things but I think time will tell how good he is. We can't judge him yet.

          There is no question he is a great corner man for his son. I think he has trained him well but would like to see straighter punches and the abilty to attack. Danny Garcia's strength is his ability to come out top in exchanges. He is also very calm but feel he is not a complete fighter.

            There is no doubt that he is a great asset in his son's corner. I would like to see him in the corner of other fighters to determine whether he is a great trainer.

                I can't really judge him as a trainer yet, but he seems to be a very good corner man, especially considering the fact that he never lost his composure in the Khan fight where his son was being picked of in the first two rounds.

                  How many fighters does he train and what are their statuses in the sport today?

                    I think he knows the game. When he isn't talking rubbish, he has pretty interesting insightful interviews.
