    100% yes. Danny started boxing when Angel was in prison on drugs charges and was trained by a local Philadelphia trainer called Jimmy Lowry. That moron Angel is capable of developing a top level fighter. That credit should go to the guys who actually worked with Danny while Angel was locked up. He took over Danny's career when he got out of prison and in the process fucked over several people who had supported Danny to that point. All real Philly boxing people too. He is a dirtbag without a shred of decency.

      Unfortunately that's boxing. Everyone is there to step on someone else

        Why exactly?

        Worked well so far, I think Angel's histrionics cause people to overlook his underrated ability as a trainer, watch the Khan fight, he was giving top advice, he's better than most trainers out there.

            If he were to leave Angel (I'm not saying take Angel away completely) who would you want to see Danny with, someone who can really bring out his strengths and corrects his flaws?

            You don't change up something that's working, especially to the tune of becoming a 2-weight world champion. Boxing is a fickle sport like that.

            Danny Garcia and Angel Garcia, tactical abilities aside, understand how to work with each other; Angel understands what it takes to keep Danny's confidence, and Danny believes entirely in what Angel sees from the outside and what Angel tells him.

            You move to another trainer, even if you do it in the name of fixing tactics, and you likely throw the rest of things off.

            Take Chad Dawson for instance; John Scully was the trainer who fit the type of fighter that Chad Dawson was. Tactics aside, Scully knew and understood what it took to get Dawson up for a fight. Chasing a trainer who "knew better tactics", Chad Dawson saw his career unravel.

              Since when has Danny Garcia ever been the fighter to dictate things behind a busy jab? Beyond that, with Guerrero hardly doing anything beyond move forward, Garcia's natural inclination was simply to take the forward pressure and "catch and shoot" his own power shots. gtfoh

                Angel seems like an obsessed beauty pageant mom, i dont think Danny seeking a new trainer would go over well. Even if it is in his best interest.

                  Can you imagine the drama if Danny left his dad? Too much tension and turmoil to do that, especially since Danny has nothing but love and respect for his dad. This isn't a case of Mayweather Sr and his son, Danny actually holds his dad in high esteem. A second trainer is also out of the question because Angel is just too overbearing.

                    It's plain as day that Angel is just using his son to support his drug addiction. Once the hype is over, he will be forcing his son into matches that don't benefit him just to keep getting a piece of that money pie, just to get that next 8 ball.

                      Did you want to say "isn't capable"?

                      I didn't think Angel was an 'angel'... but these above were news for me.
