Comments Thread For: Roach: Danny Garcia Better For Pacquiao, Not Amir Khan!

[mathed]

I think fighting your faster sparring partner who knows you is better ....that's like saying PAC had close fights with Marquez and Floyd dominated him ...so they shouldn't fight

You are giving Khan some type of leverage for sparring with Pac so what about the knowledge that Pac took away from those same sessions? Does that experience only work to the benefit of Khan?

Even though Amir Khan is a tougher fight for Pacquiao on paper, you can't blaim him for going after the guy who beat Khan. Both are wayyyy better than a Vargas fight.

Roach knows what Khan used to do to Pacquiao in sparring.

Looks like Khan is going 90% while Pac is just coasting and there are 3 or 4 moments within that short span that Pac absolutely rocks Khan flush with counter shots. You can hear the people watching like gasping when Pac lands because had that been in a real fight and Pac been trying Khan would have been on the canvas.

Danny Garcia is the more credible/ more challenging opponent, it's not even debatable. That said, I want May-Pac nothing else.

yeah, they can talked about both of those fights after pac and may get it on.

Notice how Khan-nut huggers always say someone is avoiding him when there is no evidence of that at all...

But they always ignore the fact that Khan has avoided Brook for years and even still now... Khan is avoiding Thurman and ducked out of a fight with the Ghost... and who has he fought?

Julio Diaz... went life and death... Collazo was a washed up journeyman with no punching power... and Alexander another cream puff puncher....

Pacquiao would KO Khan in less than 4..it'd be Ricky Hatton all over again...

Khan should focus on making the Brook fight happen....

Khan toys with Pac and Freddie knows it. Garcia has trouble with speed and has no answer for it, AKA easy fight for Pac.

More credible and more challenging? Please explain this to me because you look like a fool.

If this is an option B for Paquiao at 140 I like the match up against Swift.

Garcia has the durability, timing, counter punching ability to stand with Pacquiao and catch some of Pacquiao's combinations, roll some and shoot his own. That's why he's more challenging, Khan on the other hand doesn't have the chin or recuperative abilities to tangle. Also, you can't throw combinations against Pacquiao with Khan's lack of defense.


Garcia is also more credible because he has wins over Matthysse and Khan himself. Khan hasn't really done anything if you really think about it.
