Danny Garcia might be the top junior welterweight fighter in the world. And for all of the attention he gets, sometimes it seems that his father, Angel Garcia, gets even more of the press coverage, due to his sometimes controversial behavior and actions. Right here, you’ll find a special video feature from Showtime on Danny and Angel Garcia, to get an inside glimpse at their relationship both in and out of the ring. Take a look.
Here’s the official description of the feature:
Angel Garcia plays many roles for his son Danny: father, trainer and, most importantly, best friend. The outspoken dad and his quiet-yet-confident son have been virtually inseparable since the undefeated rising star was born in a Philadelphia hospital with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck. From that frightening beginning through Angel’s inspirational triumph over Stage 4 throat cancer, the father-son duo has risen together to lay claim to the Unified Super Lightweight World Championship.
Tune in Saturday, April 27, LIVE on SHOWTIME (9 p.m. ET/PT) to see if the Garcias can extend their unbeaten streak in hostile territory against former Two-Division World Champion and Brooklyn native Zab Judah at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
So, what do you think? Does Angel Garcia get a bad wrap, or deserve more credit? Or does his behavior simply speak for itself, as he’s always outspoken and in the midst of some kind of mix-up or another?
Either way, you can’t argue with Danny Garcia’s performance in the ring.
