    Would these two be a good fit? Maybe Roach could turn Canelo into an aggressive counter-puncher.

    IDK doesn't Froach not like Mexicans or something?

    I think Nacho, Marquez trainer would be better


    Robert would be good too

    Heck even Mayweather would raise Canelo stamina

    Nacho or Garcia would be a lot better for Canelo than Roach.

    Garcia would get Canelo knocked out after two fights together. You dont go to Garcia unless you wanna plant your feet and hope for something big. Garcia has nun but plodders.

    But Nacho would put him in next level for sure though.

    Robert Garcia hones skills regardless if a fighter is a plodder or not. He adds dimensions to a fighters game and that's what Canelo needs. Roach doesn't do that. All he knows is come forward and that's what will get you knocked out. Cotto needed that because he already had the skills. He was just lacking confidence. I think that Pac honed his boxing skills through Roaches alternate coaches, not Roach. Roach himself was a come forward brawler and that's all he knows. Garcia was an excellent boxer puncher.

    Roach couldn't train Khan because Khan wouldn't move forward. Garcia is a far better trainer than Roach for my money.
