Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao-Khan May Bore - I Want Danny Garcia

[Alpha & Omega]

Yep. Manny needs flat footed fighters to look "HOF" caliber. Pac/Garcia would be a good fight and I see a UD for Pac. I am not sure Pac has the power at WW to stop Garcia though and I do think Pac would take somewhat of a beating as well. Good solid fight. Call me crazy but I still think Khan beats Pac. Styles make fights.

Khan has been talking of using Floyd's bluerprint to beat Manny, so now Freddie wants to go in another direction. How hilarious? Since it was the shoulder injury why he wasn't able to deal with Floyd, why not test out both shoulders on Khan's willingness to use Floyd's strategy, beat him, and then call out Floyd for a rematch.

I would love to see that fight, but there is NO WAY Haymon let's that happen.

Ever since the Matthyse fight, it's all about protecting Danny and soft touches to protect that record.

Roach should accept pacquiao vs khan. He will get a KO prediction correct if he does

[aboutfkntime]

Freddie Roach, trainer of eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38KOs), would rather see his fighter take on Danny Garcia (31-0, 18KOs) instead of Amir Khan (31-3, 19KOs).

Khan is looking to face Pacquiao in 2016, and there is some interest from the Filipino star's promoter, Bob Arum of Top Rank.

Freddie knows styles....

They stopped sparring Khan for a reason.

Garcia would be a much easier opponent for Pac.

But I doubt that Pacs fanbase will choose to see it that way.

Had Khan not struggled so badly against Algieri everyone would have signed up. Still a fight I like ....Pac by mid to late.

Don't think anybody really believes Pac-Khan would be boring.

Think he has other motives for wanting Garcia instead, maybe stylistically he thinks it's an easier fight for Pac or he's just bitter about Khan leaving him and wanting to deny him a major fight.

It's the bold man ^^

Lol I remember Roach saying a couple of years ago that Khan was whooping Pacquiao in sparring. No wonder he wants the stylistically easier fight.

Yup ^^

Funny how folks conveniently forget all those tidbits.

[aboutfkntime]

Roach really meant ," Danny Garcia has a style better suited for Manny to win. Khan has a good jab, hand speed, and foot movement. Its my fault I never taught Manny how to cut off the ring on an opponent"

[PAC-BOY]

Khan boring? WTF!!!! Garcia is the easy fight. Khan chances of beating Manny is real good!
